Though entitled " Hardening 
for the South," the work is one 
the utility of which is not restrict- 
ed to the South. It is an. admira- 
ble treatise on gardening iu gen-

more in detail than is usual in

ing in the warmer portions of the 
Union, the work will be especially 
valuable, as it gives tbe varieties 
of vegetables and fruits adapted 
to the climate and the modes of 
culture which it ia necessary to 
follow.
