INDEX. 



The alphabetical entries or headings in the Nursery List, 

 Chapter VI., are not included in this index, but all second- 

 ary and incidental names and references comprised in it 

 are intended to be included here. Inasmuch as many culti- 

 vated plants of secondary importance had to be' omitted 

 from the Nursery List in the effort to economize space, the 

 present index has been made to include the names of all the 

 natural families of plants which that List comprises, in the 

 hope of aiding the student in apprehending the general 

 methods of propagation which apply to the family of which 

 any plant, itself omitted from the List, may be a member. 

 This ordinal index was made a separate feature of the first 

 edition of the book.
