PRACTICAL GARDEN BOOKS 



WHAT ENGLAND CAN TEACH US ABOUT 



GARDENING By Wilhelm Miller. Ph. D. 



This is the first attempt to check the literal copying of Old World gardens and 

 to lay the foundations of an American style of gardening. It is the spirit of 

 English gardening we should copy — not the materials. Dr. Miller illustrates in 

 great detail the right and wrong spirit in gardening. Eight illustrations in color. 

 Net, $4.00 (postage 35 cents). 



THE AMERICAN FLOWER GARDEN By Neltje Blanchan 



An authoritative work on everything pertaining to the garden. It covers 

 adequately the needs of the amateur whose garden is either extensive or the 

 reverse, and every fact among the thousands is made quickly available by a 

 fourteen-page index. The pictures are printed as inserted plates and form, we 

 believe, the best collection ever attempted in a book about gardens. Over 80 

 illustrations. Net, $5.00 (postage 35 cents).

MUSIC OF THE WILD By Gene Stratton-Porter 



Author of "Freckles," "The Harvester," "A Girl of the Limberlost ," etc. 

 In this volume, Mrs. Porter has done that tremendously difficult thing of really 

 putting into pages of a book the charm and the call of Nature. In three sec- 



tions: "The Chorus of the Forest," "Songs of the Fields," and "The Music of 

 the Marsh," this book gives exquisite descriptions of life among the trees, of 

 familiar voices of the field, and of the wonders of lowland and marsh. Mrs. 

 Stratton-Porter has placed in her book 120-photographs, the fruits of untiring 

 labor with her camera, and they are as rare and fascinating, as her knowledge of 

 nature. Illustrated. Net, $2.50, (postage 35 cents.)
