DREER S GARDEN CALENDAR. 



HINTS TO GARDENERS. 



" A place for every thing, and every thing in its place^''^ is an 

 generally more honored in the breach than in the observance ; and 

 yet it is one which has a peculiar importance for the Farmer and 

 Horticulturist. To have the tools belonging to a garden or farm so 

 arranged that the hand can be laid on them at any moment, is always 

 desirable. It saves not only time, but it saves vexation, and very 

 frequently irreparable loss. We have prepared a diagram, which will 

 explain our meaning more clearly than words. The adoption of such 

 a plan will repay the cost and trouble, ten times over, in the course 

 of a single year.
