HERE ends The Voice of the Garden, an inter- 

 pretation of the deeper meanings of plant life, 

 touched by sentiment, and written by Abram 

 Limvood Urban, as a tribute to his wife, and 

 not first intended for publication. Illustrated 

 by half-tones from photographs of the author's 

 home garden and decorated by Grace Lillian 

 Urban, the author's daughter, the whole was 

 done into a Book for Thomas Meehan & Sons, 

 of Germantown, Pennsylvania, whose large 

 nurseries, founded in 1854 by the late Professor 

 Thomas Meehan, have so greatly contributed 

 to the growth in the American people of that 

 love of gardens for which the book speaks. 

 The typography and binding were designed 

 and supervised by the Service Bureau of the 

 Wm. F. Fell Company, who printed the book, 

 the whole being done and completed in the City 

 of Philadelphia, in the month of October and 

 the year of Our Lord Nineteen Hundred and 

 Twelve.
