THE TREE BOOK 



BY JULIA ROGERS, OF CORNELL UNIVERSITY 



[2m(). About 350 Pages. Price, $2.00. Advance Order, $1.00. 



This valuable contribution to the popular literature of forestry will be illustrated with the 

 instructive and beautiful pictures from our twenty-four Typical Forest Trees in Photogravure. 



These show the tree as it appears in nature ; a view 

 showing the characteristics of the bark and a view of 

 the leaf. In addition there will be 200 drawings and 

 other text illustrations 



This will be one of the most practical books ever 

 published. It will be complete in itself, containing 

 no technical terms that are not defined. It will not 

 have to be used with some other publication to make 

 the text intelligible. The members of Forestry 

 Clubs and all interested in trees will find it a handy 

 companion at all times.
