"I have examined the book with much interest. It is easily seen that it 

 is written with Professor Bailey's clearness and felicity of style, and I think it 

 as a whole one of the most charmingly and appropriately illustrated of mod- 

 ern botanical text-books. I expect it to prove a stimulating and very useful 

 work." PROF. W. F. GANONG, Smith College. 



Lessons with Plants. Suggestions for seeing and interpreting some 

 of the common forms of vegetation, by L. H. BAILEY, with delinea- 

 tions from nature by W. S. HOLDSWORTH, Michigan Agricultural 

 College, with 446 illustrations. 



1 2 mo. Half Leather. $1.10 net. 



" It is an admirable book, and cannot fail both to awaken interest in the 

 subject and to serve as a helpful and reliable guide to young students of plant 

 life. It will, I think, fill an important place in secondary schools, and comes 

 at an opportune time when helps of this kind are needed and eagerly sought." 

 PROF. V. M. SPALDING, University of Michigan.

 work described above.

" A remarkably well-printed and illustrated book, extremely original and 

 unusually practical.'" H. W. FOSTER, South Orange, N.J. 



The Principles of Agriculture. A text-book for schools and rural 

 societies. Edited by L. H. BAILEY, with contributions from his 

 colleagues in the Cornell University. 



300 Pages. 92 Illustrations. $1.25. 



This is an attempt to analyze the complex subject of agriculture, and to 

 present the underlying principles and factors in clear, terse English. Each 

 chapter is in two parts : the first part, or the principles, is in numbered para- 

 graphs in very large type (the size used in "Lessons with Plants"); the 

 second part contains informal suggestions to the teacher and pupil, with illus- 

 trations. It is one of the few attempts to coordinate all the various agricul- 

 tural subjects, showing the relative importance and position of each. It is a 

 skeleton of agricultural science and practice. Full references are made to 

 available literature.
