ELLIOTT'S WESTERN FEUIT BOOK, 



cm, THE AilElUCAN FKUIT-GIIUWER'S GUIDE IN THE OR- 

 CHARD AN'D U.\liDEN. 



^^^ SENT EKKE Ol'' I'OSTAGE. „^3 



" A large number of Weatern apjiles and other I'ruits are described 

 in this boqk, which are not fouiiU in other works of tlie kind; and 

 Uie remarks on tlie selection of varieties for Western culture, juopa- 

 f.ition, management, &c., as far as we have had time to examine, 

 seem to us judicious and valuable. Every nurseryman and fruit- 

 grower, especially in Ohio aud the Western States, should procure 

 a cojiy." — O/iiu CuUirator. 



" But the chief value of the book lies in its practical details — in 

 fls classifications and specificiitions of the different varieties, with 

 the peculiarities they present, and the different methods of training 

 they require. This branch of the subject, which is very fuU, is 

 •opiously illustrated by drawings." — Phil. North American. 



" It is a book that every farmer and fruit-grower may profitably 

 read." — Rochester Daily American. 



" As Mr. Elliott resides in Cleveland, he is much bettor acquainted 

 Tflth what fruits are adapted to the Central States tlian horticultu- 

 rists or pomologists who reside on or near the Atlantic seaboard. 

 This foct gives the work great additional value to those who are 

 engaged in cultivating fruit in the Mississippi vaUey." — Democratic 

 Press, Chicago. 



"EUiott's Fruit Book is the most direct and practical of any trea- 

 tise that has fallen under our observation ; clear and minute in its 

 directions, both as to modes of culture and qualities of the different 

 kinds and varieties of fruit. We recommend its purchase as an in- 

 vestment that will speedily return many hundred fold." — Bingham- 

 ton Democrat. 



" It contains much matter of practical value to fruit-growers in 

 the new States." — Rural Ifew Yorker. 



" The great mass of the matter is marked with correcness and 

 with much knowledge of fruits, and the work will of course stand 

 at the head, so far as its descriptions of Western varieties are con- 

 eerned ; and as such we strongly commend it to the fruit-raising 

 portion of the community." — Country Gentleman. 



"This work, from the examination we have been able to make, 

 will probably be found one of the best works on pomology yet pub- 

 lished. The .autlior lias had the aid of many of the best fruit- 

 powers of tliis country, and gives drawings of numerous varieties 

 of each class of fruit." — American Farmer. 



" Jlr. Elliott has long been known as a practical horticulturist, 

 and as an able writer on pomology." — Boston Cultivator. 



" It embodies all the latest important information pertaining to 

 fruit-culture ; and we can recommend it as a thorough and reliable 

 work — got up for its intrinsic worth, not for speculation." — North- 

 ern Farmer. 



" Such a book cannot fail to secure a ready and extensive sale in 

 Wery part of the country," — Godey's Lady's Book. 



" Mr. Elliott is definite in his descriptions, and a man of expe- 

 rience in tlie culture of fruita in the orchard and garden, and fa- 

 Torably known." — JSIaine Farmer. 



" Mr. Elliott has rendered an acceptable service to the cause of 

 horticulture." — Practical Farmer. 



" From what we have seen and read, we cannot hesitate in recom- 

 mending it as in many respects the most complete and valuable 

 book of the kind in existence. The descriptions of fruit are full, 

 elear, and methodical ; and the illustrations of the best order — not 

 mere outlines — but full, or half-sectional figures, with cores, seeds, 

 &c., as true to nature as we have ever seen. The book cannot fail 

 oi being useful in a high degree." — Prairie Farmer. 



" The author of this work now before us has given us a very 

 Taluable work on the cultivation of fruits. He was .imply qualified 

 to do so, having been for ten years engaged in 'the nurturing of 

 trees and noting their product^.' " — Michigan Farmer.

Read the following professional report from A. A. H.aycs, M. D., 

 Assayer of the State of Massachusetts, and one of the best practi- 

 cal chemists in the world. He is a scholar whose reputation and 

 usefulness are, like Liebig's, of Gei-many, an honor to his country : 



Dr. J. C. Ater, Lowell, Mass. — My dear Sir : — I have made a 

 careful analyses of your Pills, with the formula for their prepara- 

 tion. They contain the active principles of well-known drugs, 

 isolated from inert matter, which plan is, chemically speaking, one 

 of great importance to their usefulness. It not only gives the con- 

 centrated virtues of medicines, but insures great activity, certainty, 

 and uniformity of effect. 



Your use of "Ricmine," the active principle of the castor bean, 

 is new to me, and your course of procuring it by chemical analy- 

 sis from the bean is certainly valuable. 



Your PiUs coniain no metallic or mineral substance, but the vir- 

 tues of vegetable remedies, in skillful combination. 



Respectfull}', A. A. Hayes.

 this city, whose reputation and eminence in his jirofession is well 

 known to us, and we have implicit confidence in his opinion.

 melodies and negro characters : 



New York, 17th Nov., 1853. 



Dr. J. C. Ayer — Dear Sir : — I take much pleasure in informing 

 you that I have derived great benefit from the. use of your medi- 

 cines, and can most cheerfully recommend your Cathartic Pills to 

 all who need such a remedy. They are the best family medicine I 

 have ever employed, and must be esteemed by the public when 

 their virtues are known. Geo. H. Christy, 



Of the Negro Minstrels, 444 Broadway, New York. 



The following, from an eminent practicing physician in the 

 South, shows how the PiUs are appreciated by the medical profes- 

 sion; and as the writer is also Postmaster, we have conclusive evi- 

 dence that ho is a responsible and respectable man : 



Hamilton, Miss., Nov. 9, 1853. 



Dear Sir :— Mr. Blair, of Columbus, supphed me with your C** 

 thartic Pills and formula, and I have since used tlicm in my prac- 

 tice with more than ordinary results. They exhibit excellence in 

 their action which betoken "no common remedy, and I can pro- 

 nounce them decidedly the surest and best aperient we liave ever 

 been able to procure in this section. They arc a desideratum long 

 felt in our prescriptions, and have proved them.selves to be the 

 very article I have many years sought for in vain. Trusting you 

 will not fail to supply the community with a discovery which must 

 be the means of immense benefit to the sick, 



I am, sir, with respect, yours, &c.,
