Is sent free with all orders amounting to $1.00 or over, if asked for when ordering. 



One of our friends wrote us last year as follows — ''Your Garden Guide is just what we need. It could not he hetter. " 



That is a very flattering compliment to our little book, but we are not content to rest upon our laurels, however abundant they may 

 be. So the recipient of HENDERSON'S GARDEN GUIDE AND RECORD FOR 1915 will find that it has been thoroughly over- 

 hauled, partly re- written, added to, and improved. Most of the new features and improvements are the results of suggestions made to 

 us by our customers, many of whom are expert amateur gardeners, and know well the particular nee.ds and difficulties of the suburban 

 planter. The NEW EDITION has a water proof cover as before; is printed in the same type as the older edition, and is the same size 

 viz. 5| X 8| inches, this having been found to be very convenient, as it may be carried in the pocket, and be ready to answer any 

 gardening questions that may arise.
