One request the writer would make of all those who may do 

 him the honor to examine this first attempt to prepare a Cana- 

 dian work of this kind ; it is, that they would kindly note down 

 any omissions they may discover, or any fuller information they 

 may have in their possession upon any of the varieties of fruits, 

 flowers, or vegetables that are cultivated in their vicinity, and 

 communicate the same to the author. It will be his endeavor 

 to use such information for the benefit of the whole Dominion,, 

 through the columns of the Canada Farmer, and in such othei 

 manner as he may find possible
