Plant Breeding 



Horticulturists who are interested in the 

 production of new forms of plant life will find 

 much that is interesting and of value to them 

 in their work in Prof. L. H. Bailey's book en- 

 titled "Plant Breeding." Variation in its dif- 

 ferent phases is outlined. The influence of 

 physical environment, food supply, climate, 

 etc., are fully discussed. The production of 

 new varieties and the most approved methods 

 to be adopted in acquiring the qualities desired 

 are fully taken up. 



To more clearly explain the principles and 

 discussions, concrete examples of work done 

 with dewberries, blackberries, apples, beans, 

 and cannas, are outlined. "There is nothing 

 mysterious about the subject," says the pro- 

 fessor, "so far as the cultivator is concerned. 

 He simply sets his ideal, makes sure that it 

 does not contradict any of the fundamental 

 laws of the development of the plant with 

 which he is to work, then patiently and per- 

 sistently keeps at his task. He must have good 



judgment, skill, and inspiration, but he does 

 not need genius." This book can be procured 

 from The Canadian Horticulturist.
