 book and we have overflowed the 

 banks of fine periodicals in this mag-

"Among Green Trees " came in due 

 time and I am delighted with the 

 book. I think the publisher is to be 

 congratulated as well as the author. 

 The royal size, green cover, enameled 

 paper, wide margins and open, per- 

 fect type all strike my eye Finest of 

 all are the photogravures I have 

 been greatly interested in the reading 

 I did not know the tree story could be 

 told so faithfully and so fascin ttingly. 

 I am proud to have the book among 

 wy books — Professor J. Vallance

 ifornia, San Francisco.

This book of about three hundred 

 large octavo pages will be beautifully 

 illustrated by forty-eight full-page 

 plates made by the three-color process 

 of color photography. In addition 

 there will be over forty half-tones. 

 The text will treat of the structural 

 characteristics, history, uses and dis- 

 tribution of the more important com- 

 mercial and economic plants under 

 cultivation, including the more valua- 

 ble medicinal plants. In all about one 

 hundred plants wilJ be fully described, 

 but incidental reference is made to 

 many related plants, which will swell ' 

 the number of i lants actually consid 

 ered to about five or six hundred. 



It will be a valuable addition* to the 

 literature of botany. The style is 

 adapted to the general reader and the 

 book will prove interesting and in- 

 structive to farmer, arboriculturist, 

 horticulturist and teachers and stu- 

 dents iu all grades interested in bot- 

 any from the view-point of utility, 

 history and folk-lore.
