The Garden-Craft Series 



Garden - Making 



Suggestions for the Utilizing of Home Grounds 



By L. H. BAILEY 



Aided by L. R. Taft, F. A. Waugh, and Ernest Walker 



FIFTH EDITION — 417 PAGES — 256 ILLUSTRATIONS — $1.00 



HERE is a book literally "for the million" who in broad America 

 have some love for growing things. "Every family can have a 

 garden. If there is not a foot of land, there are porches or win- 

 dows. Wherever there is sunlight, plants may be made to grow; 

 and one plant in a tin -can may be a more helpful and inspiring 

 garden to some mind than a whole acre of lawn and flowers may 

 be to another." The illustrations are copious and beautiful. 



While it presents scientific truths, it is iu no sense a mere scientific treatise. It 

 gives in simple language such information as every man or woman who buys a single 

 packet of seed or attempts to grow a single plant is in need of. No other modern 

 American work exists which covers this important field. It forms a manual of 

 instruction for the beginner in garden work, and is at the same time a book of ref- 

 erence for the skilled craftsman. It is profusely illustrated and every important 

 operation is graphically shown. — Boston Transcript. 



It is impossible to praise too highly the valuable publications issued by Prof. 

 Bailey. This work on "Garden - Making" has all the e.xcellences of his previous 

 books, together with many features which will recommend themselves to every one 

 desiring to make the most of the grounds around his home. — New Orleans Picayune.

 mation as to just how to plant, prune, train, and to care for all the 

 common flowers, fruits, vegetables, ornamental bushes and trees. It 

 has articles on the making of lawns, borders, sj^raying, fertilizers, 

 manures, lists of plants for particular purposes, hotbeds, window-gar- 

 dening, etc. It is all arranged alphabetically, like a miniature cyclo- 

 pedia. It does not contain a bit of theory or of fine writing, but is 

 designed for those who have no time to go into the whys and 

 wherefores, and who want directions as to how to grow plants.
