NOTICES OF THE PRESS. 



'■ Among uil the writers on fruits, we Jo not know of on? v^\y i 

 Mr. Thomas's superior, if his equal, in condensing imi>ort.iiit mat- 

 ter. He gets right at the pith of the thing— he gives you th::l 

 which you wish to know at once; stripped of all a-^eless talk and 

 twattle. No man ha.s a keener eye for the best way.i of doin-^ 

 things. Hence we always look into his writings with the asj^u- 

 rance that we shall find something new, or .some improvement on 

 the old; and we are seldom disappointed. 



This book is no exception It is fu!t. There is no v.icat.t 

 space in It. It is like a fresh ecg— all good, and packed to tin; 

 shell-full."— Prur/c Farmer. 



•■ We predict for it a very rapid sale. It ?hould be in the hand:) 

 of every fruit grower, and especially every nurseryman. It ia a 

 very cheap book for its price. "~OA:a Cultiuatcr. 



'• An equally valuable, but cheaper book than Dowoing's, wa.-^ 

 wanted by the great mass. Just such a work has Mr. Thoma.-* 

 given us. We consider it in invaluable additi(»u to oup agricul- 

 tural libraries.''— TCoo/ Grower. 



" It i.s a most valuable work to all engaged in tbecuUure of 

 Fruit Trees."— f7(:cc Herald 



" In the volume befort- us. we have the results of the authoi'rj 

 experience and observation continued with untiring perseverance 

 for many years, in language at once concise and per.'*picunns.''— 

 Jllbaanij Cultivt&r 



" The vast number of varieties which have been pi'Opagated. 

 renders such a book peculiarly necessary at the prcpent lime, 

 serving to point out the good from the bad, and being just what 

 the great mass of the community now want in reducing the list 

 of sorts by retaining the best.''— 16. 



'■ We can safely say. with eonfidenoe. to our readers, if you ner-d 

 a book to instruct you in the modes of growing trees, &.c , from 

 the first start- the system of pruning, &c., Sec. you will find the 

 American Fruit Culturiet an extremely valuable work. * * The 

 million who purchase it, will find matter adapted to their wants, 

 superior to any work as yet published.''— C/e^f^al^d Herald.

 questions of the day. Sympathizing with all the great enter- 

 prizes of Christian benevolence, it speaks against all war in the

 pect the image of God and a human brother, in every man. of 

 whatever clime, color or condition of humanity. All orders 

 should be post pvid, and directed to either of the editors, at Wor-
