ADYEETISEMENT. 



It has been found impossible to complete the entire treatise in time for the work 

 of the present season. Hence, it is thought best not to delay the publication of 

 what is already prepared, as some persons may desire to pm-chase the Kitchen and 

 Fruit Garden only. Little new work can be laid out in the Flower Garden until 

 autumn, by which time will be issued, separately, the remainder of the work, con- 

 taining the hints on Landscape and Flower Gardening, with the Calendars, and 

 perhaps brief notes on a few of the most promising Fruits that come into bearing 

 with us this summer, thus considerably Increasing the usefulness of the entire 

 work, and enabling those who wish to procure either part by itself. 



Maech, 1856.
