PREFATORY NOTICE TO VOLUME XXIX. V 



the newly appointed Editor, the first fruits of whose labours will 

 be published early in the New Year. 



A few of the Fellows may blame the Secretary-Editor for not 

 relinquishing one or other of his offices sooner, but the vrasl 

 majority will condone the offence on account of the object which 

 he has had ever in view, viz. the growth and prosperity of the 

 Royal Horticultural Society. 



W. Wilks, 

 Secretary and Editor, 1888-1906.
