1. View of the southern part of the Botanic Garden, taken from the central cupola of the laboratory 

building. War gardens of employees in front of the conservatories; the rock-garden against the trees at the 
right background; the small building at the left, beyond the conservatories, is the children’s building, with the 
children’s ede extending beyond and to the right. The middle distance is occupied by a portion of the 
general systematic section; the line of trees being the willows along the brook. At the right of the path be- 
tween the conservatories and the children’s building is the potato field, a temporary war-time planting. Be- 
yond is Flatbush and the ocean (five miles distant). The trees at the extreme right are in Prospect Park. 
Washington Avenue at the extreme left.
