"Some Greenhouses We Have Built," 

 Lord & Biirnham Company, New York, 

 This is a catalogue, to be sure, but it 

 has little of the features usually apper- 

 taining to catalogues. It is really an 

 album of beautiful views of exteriors 

 and interiors in artistic framing and 

 altogether a superb example of typo- 

 graphical art. Tliat the establishments 

 portrayed in its pages show the highest 

 attainments in glas.s house architecture 

 and efficiency goes without saying. It 

 is the finest production in its class that 

 we have seen.
