First Provisional Schedule. 
By the word amateur is understood a per- 
son who maintains a garden with a view to 
his own use and enjoyment, and not for the 
purpose of gaining a livelihood. The fact of 
his disposing of surplus produce for money 
does not change him into a tradesman unless 
the whole maintenance of the garden is in- 
tended to return him an annua! profit. 
By the word nurseryman is understood a 
person who maintains a garden for the pur- 
pose of gaining a livelihood, and intends it to 
return him an annual profit.
