PUBLICATIONS RECEIVED. 



The American Flower Garden, Dou- 

 bleday. Page & Co. — Here is a beauti- 

 ful book and as useful as it is beauti- 

 ful. The author is Neltze Blanchan 

 and the planting lists which form a 

 very important and practical part of 

 the contents are by Leonard Barron. 

 The first chapter is entitled "The 

 Partnership between Nature and Art." 

 This is the sentiment that runs 

 through the entire work and this is 

 one of the strong points that give it 

 unusual value as a book for the lover 

 of nature who is possessed of a long- 

 ing to get very close to nature and 

 know how to work in conjunction and 

 harmony with her. And the civilized 

 world is full of people who are hun- 

 gry for the truths this work unfolds 

 so enticingly and convincingly. It 

 answers a thousand questions that 

 are on the lips daily of the earnest 

 amateur cultivators, many of which, 

 unfortunately, the florist and local 

 gardener are, by a large majority, un- 

 able to answer. For this reason the 

 book before us has a place not alone 

 on the library shelf of the amateur 

 gardener but has also a distinct value 

 for the florist who aims to serve sat- 

 isfactorily the customers who look to 

 him for advice and expect such ad- 

 vice, when intelligently followed, to 

 prove infallible. So we earnestly 

 recommend the volume to our trade 

 readers as something they will find 

 well worth having. There are ninety- 

 two full-page half-tone engravings 

 and four beautiful color plates all 

 depicting garden scenery worthy of 

 being studied as examples of garden 

 art. The lists by Leonard Barron arc 

 well-selected and comprehensive. 

 The price of The American Flower 

 Garden is $5.35 delivered. Copies can 

 he supplied from this office.
