CYCLOPEDIA OF 



AMERICAN HORTICULTURE 



Dear Sir: 



Enclosed is a proof of matter which is 

 going into the Cyclopedia. We should like to 

 have any corrections which may occur to you. 

 Please return it RIGHT AWAY. Stamped 

 envelope enclosed. We should like to send 

 proofs to you frequently as the work proceeds, 

 and to put your name in the preface as having 

 helped us. If you are too busy to be bothered 

 you may draw a pencil mark across this slip 

 and return it to us, and we will not send you 

 any more. L. H . BAILEY 



Ithaca, New York 



The things you can help us on in this proof 

 are these : 



1. Any suggestions or corrections as to cultural 



directions. 



2. Name any species which have been omitted. 



We want to insert all the species which 

 are IN THE TRADE in North America, 

 but not those which are known only in 

 botanic gardens and the collections of 

 fanciers. 



3. Any general suggestions as to the treatment 



of the subjects,— particularly SHORT- 

 COMINGS.
