Several of which we think will be found interesting, if not instruc- 

 tive, both to 



Florists and Market Gardeners. 



The advantage of having these articles in this compact form is, that those interested in 

 the subject on which they treat, can refer to what they want to see, without wading through 

 the pages of a larger volume. Nearly the whole of these articles have been supplemented 

 by such knowledge as the writer is possessed of on the subjects, up to the present date.

Grccn-Housc Structures and Modes of Heating; Hot-beds. 



Manures, and tlieir Modes of Application. 



Strawberry Culture. 



Celery Growing and Storing for Winter. 



Rose Growing, for Winter and Summer Flowers. 



Root. Crops for Farm Stock. 



Market Gardens Around \ew York. 



Popular Errors and Scientific Dogmas in Horticulture. 



Use of the Feet in Sowing and Planting. 



Humbugs in Horticulture.
