THE PLUMS OF NEW YORK. 573 



BIBLIOGRAPHY AND REFERENCES, WITH ABBREVIATIONS USED. 



In this list it is hoped that there will be found all horticultural books 

 in America dealing with the plum. No attempt has been made to include 

 botanical works. Only such European books are recorded as were found 

 useful in preparing the volume. All the agricultural and horticultural 

 periodicals to which references are to be found in the preceding pages 

 are given, but no more. The reports and bulletins of experiment stations 

 and horticultural societies are not included since the abbreviations used 

 for such publications are readily recognized. The date of copyright has 

 been preferred to that of publication though sometimes it has been necessary 

 to use the latter, as when there were several editions from the same copy- 

 right.
