THE LATEST AND BEST WORK ON THE SUBJECT. 
FUNGUS DISEASES OF ™f, «5£ PE 
B'Z' B_ LAMSON-SCRIBNEB, 
Professor of Botany in the University of Tennessee; Director and Botanist to the Agricultural Experiment Station of Tennessee; 
Fellow of the American Association for Advancement of Science; etc,, etc. 
Prof. Scribner is the foremost authority in this country upon the subjects which he here treats, and the publication 
of this work will be gladly welcomed by thous- 
ands of vineyardists and horticulturists through- 
out the country. The ravages of Fungi during 
late years have been enormous and the dread de- 
stroyer still stalks undaunted through our vine- 
yards, orchards and gardens. To meet these 
Fungus Diseases successfully ; to overcome, 
conquer and utterly rout them, requires concerted 
effort and universal attack. It is useless for a 
vineyardist or fruit-grower to diligently and 
zealously combat them if his neighbor is to per- 
mit them to approach and ravage unmolested. 
Nor can the latter now plead ignorance of meth- 
ods or remedies. This book has been prepared 
especially for the vineyardist, fruit-grower and 
gardener of to-day, and treats the subjects pre- 
sented in the freshest and most practical manner. It gives full descriptions of each 
disease, its nature, and means for its identification, with remedies to be used and mode 
of application. The book is copiously illustrated throughout by original engravings. 
It treats most extensively the fungus diseases of the Grape, and also the more important 
fungus diseases of the Apple, Pear, Peach, Plum, etc., etc. At this time, when the hopes of all horticulturists are directed 
to spraying as a means of checking the advancing and spreading disease, such a book as this, written by the greatest 
authority on Fungus Diseases in America, is extremely valuable and timely.
