" A concise manual of the kind here presented, has long been wanted, and we will 

 venture to say that, should this volume be carefully studied and acted on by our 

 industrious farmers, the quantity of fruit in the State would be double in five years 

 and the quality, too, greatly improved. Here may be found advice suited to all 

 emergencies, and the gentleman farmer may find direction for the simplest matter, aw 

 well as those which trouble older heads. 'The book we think will be found valua-

 compilations on the subject." — New York Tribune.

 we have the popular works of Downing, Thomas and Cole. * Mr. Barry has, then, a 

 field to himself, which he occupies with decided skill and ability." — Prairie I^armer.
