Special Features for 1915 



Roberta of Roaeberry Gardens 



By Frances Duncan 

 The Author of "The Garden Doctor " 



This is more than a mere romance hung 

 around a garden. It is chock full of prac- 

 tical garden facts, dealing with the rela- 

 tionships of the nurseryman and the 

 amateur who buys from a nursery. 



The Garden Plan Every Month 



The editors have secured the co-opera- 

 tion of competent authorities in garden 

 design for the preparation of a series of 

 what may be called typical layouts, one 

 of which will be published in each num- 

 ber during the coming year, and will 

 deal with plots varying in size from the 

 city lot to several acres. Suggestive ideas 

 will be given for the development of the 

 property, shrubbery to be used, borders, 

 etc.

A series of timely, practical hints for 

 the amateur who has a small greenhouse. 



The Month's Reminder

 do and what pitfalls to avoid.

 a practical gardener 's point of view, how 



to combat with pests and diseases in all 

 parts of the garden.

 The Vegetable Garden
