GARDEN GUIDE 



THE AMATEUR GARDENERS' HANDBOOK 



A Twelve Months' Gardening Paper 

 All Under One Cover 



The very book you have been looking for all these years. 

 Absolutely nothing in print to compare with its fund of 

 diverse information. 



Throughout its pages expert veteran gardeners tell the 

 amateur in remarkably simple, easily understood language, 

 how to plan, plant and maintain the home grounds, sub- 

 urban garden, or city lot; how to grow good vegetables 

 and fruit; how to raise beautiful flowers; how to take care 

 of lawns, porch plants, window boxes, etc. The book 

 gives the How, the When, and the Where — from the pur- 

 chase of the proper tools to reaping the harvest, and 1001 

 other points. It is of upstanding value to every man or 

 woman interested in gardening, regardless of the amount 

 of land at their disposal.
