NOTICES TO FELLOWS. 



Ixxxix 



explains very clearly how to make the different washes and sprays, and 

 also gives the proportions in which the various ingredients should 

 be used. 



Each pest is described separately, and means for its prevention or 

 eradication are given, and the whole work is written so as to interest 

 and instruct the cultivator in the simplest and most practical manner. 

 The volume, as published, is half-bound in calf, as it was considered 

 probable that it would form the text- book on the subject for very many 

 years to come ; and it thus makes an admirable school prize or gift to 

 a gardener or student of nature. Price 65., R.H.S. Office, Vincent 

 Square. 



" No one whose plants are subject to fungoid attacks — and whose are 

 no t ? — should be without this book ; for not only can they by its use 

 identify the disease at once, but they are also told both how to treat it 

 and overcome it, and also how to make the different washes and sprays 

 which the different classes of fungoid attacks require." 



34. RULES FOR JUDGING. 



The " Rules for Judging, with Suggestions to Schedule Makers and 

 Exhibitors," have been revised and considerably modified from the 

 experience gained during the last few years. The Secretaries of Local 

 Societies are therefore strongly advised to obtain a fresh copy. It 

 will be sent post free on receipt of a postal order for Is. 6d. addressed 

 to the Secretary, Royal Horticultural Society, Vincent Square, West- 

 minster, S.W. 



35. VARIETIES OF FRUITS. 



Many people plant Fruit trees without a thought of what Variety 

 they shall plant, and as a result almost certain disappointment ensues, 

 whilst for an expenditure of 2d. they can obtain from the Society a little 

 16-page pamphlet which contains the latest expert opinion on Apples, 

 Pears, Plums, Cherries, Raspberries, Currants, Gooseberries, and Straw- 

 berries, together with Notes on Planting, Pruning, and Manuring, which 

 for clearness of expression and direction it would be impossible to 

 surpass. It has in fact been suggested that no other 16 pages in the 

 English language contain so much and such definite information. At 

 the end of the pamphlet are given the names of some of the quite new 

 varieties of Fruits, which promise well, but are not yet sufficiently long 

 proved to be recommended for general planting. 



Copies of this most valuable little pamphlet for distribution may be 

 obtained at the Society's Office, Vincent Square, Westminster. Price, 

 post free : single copy, 2<2., or 25, 2s. ; 50, 3s. ; 100, 4s. 



36. ADVERTISEMENTS. 



Fellows are reminded that the more they can place their orders with 

 those who advertise in the Society's Publications the more likely others 

 are to advertise also, and in this way the Society may be indirectly 

 benefited.
