PREFATORY VIEW 



Of THE 



WORK. 



A Kalendar, as being a Book of Refer- 

 ence, is allowed to be the most useful form in 

 which to publish a System of Gardening ; con- 

 sidered either with regard to the usual divisions 

 of work, or of time. The history or culture of 

 Plants, no doubt, may be as concisely and com- 

 pletely detailed, taken individually, by a Cata- 

 logue, or a Dictionary : but the Kalendar has 

 this particular advantage over every other book, 

 that it exhibits, at a glance, the business or duty 

 of the Gardener at every moment.
