PLATE XIV. 



(Page 4G1.) 



This picture illustrates the subject upon which the chapter treats, 

 where it is placed as a sign is sometimes shown, to indicate the 

 things within. It is the sign of the garden. In it were grown the 

 cabbage, corn, cucumbers, turnips, tomatoes, pumpkins, potatoes, 

 beets, carrots, parsneps, egg-plants, ornamental gourds, onions, and 

 80 on of all the rest. It indicates some of the subjects of this chap- 

 ter, but not all. It would require a large picture to do that. So, 

 after taking a glance at this, look well at every one of the next 

 hundred pages. Every paragraph about " The Garden and its 

 Fruits'' has a deep interest to every reader. The picture is only a 

 sort of wayside resting-place for the weary reader's eye. It is to 

 amuse and lead the traveler on to more substantial fare.
