THE SMALL FRUIT CULTUBIST. 
BY ANDREW S. FULLER. 
We havo heretoforo had no work espe- 
cially devoted to small fruits, and cer- 
tainly no treatises anywhero that give 
Vie information contained in this. It i3 
t » the advantage of special works thnt 
the author can say nil that he has to say 
on any subject, and not ho restricted a* 
to space, as ho must bo in those work* 
that cover the culture of all fruits— great 
and small. 
This hook covers tho whole gromid of 
Propagating Small Fruits, their Culture, 
Varieties, Tackiug for Market, etc. 
While very full on the other fruits, the 
Currants and Raspberries have been 
more carefully elaborated than ever be- 
fore, and in this important part of his 
bock, the author has had the invaluable 
counsel of Charles Downing. The chap- 
ter on gathering and packing tho fruit is x 
valuable one, and in it are figured all the 
baskets and boxes now in common use.

The book la very finely and thoroughly

same well known author.

AMERICAN POMOLOGY. 
APPLES. 
BY DOCT. JOHN A. WARDER, 
TRESTDTSNT Of THE OHIO POMOLOGIC'AI. SOCIETY : VICE-PItESIDENT OV THE AMERICAN POMOT.OarrAT. BOQIETT. 
This volume lifts ftliont 7"0 pages, tho flret 
375 of which arc devoted to the discussion of 
the general subjects of propagation, nursery 
culture, selection and planting, cultivation of 
orchards, care of fruit, insects, and the like ; 
the remainder is occupied with descriptions of 
apples. With the richness of material at hand, 
the trouble was to decido what to leavo out. 
It will be found that while tho old and stand- 
ard varieties are not neglected, the new and 
promising sorts, especially thoso of tho South 
and West, have prominence. A list of selec- 
tions for different totalities by eminent orchard- 
ists is a valuable portion of tho volume, while 
the Analytical Index or Catalogue Raisonnt, as 
the French would say, is the most extended 
American fruit list ever published, and *,ivca 
evidence of a very great amount of labor.
