THE GARDEN MAGAZINE 



137 



We take pleasure in announcing that after several years of preparation 



The American Flower Garden 



BY NELTJE BLANCHAN 



With Horticultural List by Leonard Barron 



Has now so far progressed that we feel justified in 

 announcing its immediate publication 



CLThe edition is limited to 1,050 copies at $10.00 net, re- 

 serving the right to raise the price without notice. 

 CLThe numbers will be assigned to purchasers in the order 

 in which their applications are received, and the indications 

 are that the whole edition will be disposed of before publication. 

 CThere has been needed an authoritative work covering the 

 American Garden, as that famous work by William Robinson 

 describes the English Garden. The present book will be less 

 encyclopedic, but 'will cover adequately the needs of the ama- 

 teur whose garden is either extensive or the reverse. 

 CThe pictures will be printed as inserted plates, and will 

 form, it is expected, the best collection ever attempted in a 

 book about gardens. There "will be 1 plates in full color, 

 and 90 plates of sufficient size to treat adequately the subjects 

 presented. 



The size of the volume will be S}4 x 1 2 inches printed on a 

 water-marked paper made especially for it. The type used is a 

 Caslon old style. The cover design is drawn by T. B. Hapgood.
