2 | The New Celery Culture ... 15 



This summing-up of this new industry amounts to this; 



You fix your ground just as rich as you can possibly get it, 

 with stable manure, chemical fertilizers, or any thing else that 

 will do the business. Then put out your plants 7 inches apart 

 each way, and give them water enough to make them boom 

 right along from the word go. The idea is somewhat new; 

 hut enough succeeded in 1892 to demonstrate that, like the new 

 onion culture, it promises great possibilities. 



3 I Winter Care of Horses and Cattle 35 



This is friend Terry's second book in regard to farm matters; 



but it is so intimately connected with hir potato-book that it 

 reads almost like a sequel to it. If you have only a horse or a 

 cow, I think it will pay you to invest in the book. It has 44 

 pages and 4 cuts. 



3 | Wood's Common Objects of the Micro- 

 scope** 47 



NEW BOOKS ON GARDENING. 



2 I Celery for Profit, by T. Greiner 25 



The first really full and complete book on celery culture, at 

 a moderate price, that we have had. It is full of pictures, 

 and the whole thing is made so plain that a schoolboy ought 

 to be able to grow paying crops at once, without any assis- 

 tance except from the book. 



3 | Onions for Profit 45 



Fully up to the times, and includes both the old onion cul- 

 ture and the new method. The book is fully illustrated, and 

 written with all the enthusiasm and interest that character- 

 ize its author, T. Greiner. Even if one is not particularly in- 

 terested in the business, almost any person who picks up 

 Greiner's books will like to read them through. 



5 | Manures; How to Make and How to Use 



them ; i n paper covers 45 



6 | The sarue in cloth covers 65 



Covering the whole matter, and discussing every thing to be 

 found on the firm, refuse from factories, mineral fertilizers 

 from mines, etc. It is a complete summing-up of the whole 

 matter. It is wi-itten by F. W. Sempers. 



7 | Market-gardening- and Farm Notes, by 



Burnett Landreth 90 



The Landreths are the pioneer seedsmen of America; and 

 the book is worth fully as much as we might expect it to be. I 

 think I received hints from it worth the price, before it had 

 been in my hands fifteen minutes. It is exceedingly practical, 

 and tells what has been dune and what is BKINO done, more 

 than it discourses on theory.
