The Editors of " Tilton's Journal of Horticulture " cordially invite all in- 

 terested in horticulture and pomology, in its various branches, to send ques- 

 tions upon any subject upon which information may be desired. Our corps of 

 correspondents is very large, and among them may be found those fully compe- 

 tent to reply to any ordinary subject in the practice of horticulture. Any ques- 

 tions which may be more difficult to answer will be duly noticed, and the 

 respective subjects fully investigated. Our aim is to give the most trustworthy 

 information on all subjects which can be of interest to horticulture. 



We would especially invite our friends to communicate any little items of 

 experience for our "Notes and Gleanings," and also the results of experiments. 

 Such items are always readable, and of general interest. 



We must, however, request that no one will write to the contributors to our 

 columns upon subjects communicated to the Magazine. 



Any queries of this nature will be promptly answered in our columns. 



Anonymous communications cannot be noticed: we require the name and 

 address of our correspondents as pledges of good faith. 



Rejected communications will be returned when accompanied by the requisite 

 number of stamps. 



T. P., Cedar Rapids, lo. — Is not the Worcester Seedling Potato the same 

 as the Dover ? I have grown the Dover for several years, and think it answers 

 to the Worcester as described in the December number of the Journal. We 

 think it the best of all. We have six or eight sorts, but plant more of the Dover 

 than of any other, because they are the best. — The Dover and the Worcester 

 seedling are the same. It is also called Riley by some.
