LIBRARIAN'S REPORT 



To THE Members of the 



Worcester County Horticultural Society: 



I wish to submit herewith the annual report for 1911-1912. 

 Of the most important books purchased by the Library Com- 

 mittee, the fifteen volumes of Curtis' Botanical Magazine may 

 be noted, this completing the Third Series. The patronage of 

 the Library, shows an increase over the previous year, particu- 

 larly in regard to books treating upon spraying of trees. The 

 number of books borrowed by the members of the Society is 

 110, a larger number than last year. A new bookcase has been 

 added to the Library, which will be used for surplus books and 

 magazines. The periodicals which have been bound for the 

 past year, are American Homes and Gardens, English Gardens,
