Publicity 



I have continued to send to the newspapers of Greater New 

 York items about the Garden's activities and notices about the 

 various plants in the Garden Collections, especially as they come 

 into flower, having written 72 articles of this sort during the year. 

 In this work Mrs. Louise Warner, of the Brooklyn Publicity- 

 Bureau, has given her able cooperation, as last year, with the re- 

 sult that we have received through Clipping Bureaus this year 677 

 items as against 513 last year. These came from 26 newspaper- 

 and periodicals in Greater New York (last year 18), and S3 from 

 the country at large (last year 24). There is sufficient evidence 

 to warrant the belief that these figures represent a considerable 

 and -M.ileineut of the true condition.
