Professor of Horticulture in Cornell University 

 With over 500 Illustrations. Half Leather. l2mo. SI. 10, net 



"I have examined the book with much interest. It is easily seen 

 that it is written with Professor Bailey's clearness and felicity of style,' 

 and I think it, as a whole, one of the most charmingly and appropriately 

 illustrated of modern botanical text-books. I expect it to prove a stimu- 

 lating and very useful work." — Professor W. F. Gaxiing, Smith 

 College. 



"It is the very best book that I have yet seen, and I shall take 

 pleasure in using it in my class this year and in recommending it to 

 others as occasion serves." — Herbert O. Clough, Albany Academy, 

 Albany, N. Y. 



" I note several features that appear to me worthy of special men- 

 tion:*first, the illustrations that accompany the key; second, the intro- 

 duction in a simple way of well-known facts of evolution as applied to 

 plants as well as animals; third, the most important, the endeavor to 

 have the student see the plant as a real live thing." — Gilbert H. Traf- 

 TOX, Normal School, Randolph, Vt. 



"I consider it one of the best botanies on the market. Professor 

 Bailey is one of the best equipped men in the United States to write on 

 the subject of botany or horticulture. He expresses himself so clearly 

 and writes so entertainingly that even the ordinary reader will find 

 pleasure in perusing his botanies." — P. H. Mell, Director of State 

 Experiment Station, Auburn, Ala.
