kindred sub- 

 wood engravings. Each issue contains a beautiful colored plate ol 

 a Wild Flower or Fern— engraved and printed by Prang & Co., expressly for this work. 



Meehans' Monthly contains practical and general information on all horticultural subjects, the 

 care and culture of trees, shrubs, hardy plants, fruits and vegetables. The chapters on Wild Flowers 

 and Botany are written in such a simple form that the amateur has no difficulty in gleaning informa- 

 tion on a subject that heretofore has only been open to the student of Botany. 



It is not a work catering to an idle hour and then to be thrown aside. As a volume for the library 

 it is equal to the best works on botanical and general horticultural subjects, and as such, it has a value 

 far beyond the usual monthly magazines.
