PUBLICATIONS RECEIVED. 



Missouri State Board of Horticulture. 

 Second Annual Report.— Contains the 

 proceedings of the Summer Institute 

 held at Mountain Grove, June 2, 3 and 

 4, 1908, and of the Winter Institute 

 held at Columbia, January 5, 6, 7 and 

 8, 1909, in connection with "Farmers' 

 Weelv." Edited by W. L. Howard, sec- 

 retary. The western fruit grower will 

 find in this volume of 330 pages much 

 valuable information. Many half-tone 

 illustrations are included. 



The Iris Manual, by C. S. Harrison, 

 Yorlv, Neb., is a pamphlet the 32 pages 

 of which sparlvle with the enthusiasm 

 of this inspired lover of fruits and 

 fiowers who has done more, probably, 

 than any other writer to preach the 

 gospel of Nature's beauty among the 

 people of the bleak northern prairies. 

 The book is concise, practical and 

 worth much more than the price (25c.) 

 to any garden patron. Order from the 

 office of HORTICULTURE. 



The Year Book of the Department 

 of Agriculture for 1908, the most im- 

 portant document published by the 

 department, has been sent out. As 

 nsual, it cove:s a wide scope and di- 

 versified topics included under the

 papers by scientists and experts in the 

 main branches of the department, up- 



to-date information concerning the Ex- 

 periment Stations, a review of events 

 and progress, statistics, etc. There 

 are twenty-three popular papers, free- 

 ly illustrated, some of the bird and

 colors. Altogether it makes a volume 

 of 822 pages.
