Citrus Fruits, By J. Eliot Coit. The 

 latest addition to the Rural Science 

 Series published by the MacMillan 

 Company, New York. L. H. Bailey, 

 Editor. Few worlts on any subject of 

 this character'liave been prepared with 

 greater thoroughness in practical de- 

 tails. All the most up-to-date inform- 

 ation and advice on every phase of 

 the great citrus industry are con- 

 tained in the pages of this volume. 

 History, propagation, tillage, the 

 combating of insects and diseases. 

 the handling and marketing of the 

 fruits, are all fully covered to the 

 end that the successful culture of 

 oranges, lemons and grapefruit may 

 be made known and the industry be 

 made to yield an adequate income. 

 The author has spent many years in 

 close touch with his subject as profes- 

 sor of citriculture in the University of 

 California and other positions of prom- 

 inence gaining the experience which 

 enables him to speak with authority 

 on the underlying fundamentals of 

 this comparatively new industry and 

 to collate in orderly arrangement all 

 the information available at this time. 

 There are twenty-five chapters, with 

 some three hundred or more sub-divi- 

 sions, and the illustrations number 

 one hundred and fifty-one. The price 

 of the book is $2.00.

SCOTCH SCOT 



Where there Is a house that Is just 

 full of buds almost ready to show color, 

 nothing will turn better color Into the 

 flowers than a little soot, that can be 

 scattered over the benches before water- 

 ing. The amount applied should not be 

 e.xcessive, as the soot is very strong 

 and may damage some of the foliage 

 somewhat. Apply Just enough to blacken 

 the surface of the soil In the benches, 

 and let it go at that. Better a little 

 ofteaer than too much all at once.
