 MAKING 



BOOKS 



IT is the intention of the publishers to make 

 this series of little volumes, of which 

 Making a Lawn is one, a complete library of 

 authoritative and well illustrated handbooks 

 dealing with the activities of the home-maker 

 and amateur gardener. Text, pictures and dia- 

 grams will, in each respective book, aim to 

 make perfectly clear the possibility of having, 

 and the means of having, some of the more 

 important features of a modern country or sub- 

 urban home. Among the titles already issued or 

 planned for early publication are the following : 

 Making a Rose Garden; Making a Tennis Court; 

 Making a Garden Bloom This Year; Making a 

 Fireplace; Making Roads and Paths; Making 

 a Poultry House; Making a Hotbed and Cold- 

 frame; Making Built-in Bookcases, Shelves and 

 Seats; Making a Eock Garden; Making a Water 

 Garden; Making a Perennial Border; Making 

 a Shrubbery Group; Making a Naturalized Bulb 

 Garden; with others to be announced later.
