of in two issues, as previously allowed and the omission of the No- 
vember number. This comes at a time when gardens are least in- 
teresting and advertisers least plentiful and would mean a consid- 
erable saving. 
It would also mean, however, that many interesting articles al- 
ready contributed could not be used this year. The editor regrets 
this and assures contributors that their work is not despised or over- 
looked. They are merely the victims of another phase of war econ- 
omy. Will those who wish their articles returned for use elsewhere 
notify the editor, who, though loathe to give them up, will see that 
they are sent immediately? 
All Clubs but the two new members now have representatives on 
the Bulletin Committee. Without the interested help of these 
the Bulletin could not continue and the editor takes this oppor- 
tunity to thank them most cordially. 
There is still some difficulty with mailing lists, which seems due 
to the fact that changes in address are not reported promptly. In 
practically all cases of Bulletins returned by the Post Office the 
address is correct according to the Bulletin files. More careful at- 
tention to this matter on the part of secretaries and Committee mem- 
bers is therefore asked. The mailing plan at present is to send the 
November, January and March issues to city addresses, the May, 
July and September issues to the country. 
The editor regrets exceedingly that it is impossible to hold a 
Bulletin Committee meeting this year. That of last year was most 
helpful. Will members who have change's and improvements to 
suggest send them in writing since they cannot be presented to the 
Committee as a whole? All criticism finds the editor meek and 
acquiescent, all praise delighted but incredulous. 
Respectfully submitted, 
(Mrs.Walter S. Brewster) Kate L. Brewster, Editor. 
Report of the 
Committee on Garden Literature 
As this is the first report of the Garden Literature Committee, it 
may be proper to state its objects and expectations. These are, 
briefly, to provide the members of the Club with information con- 
cerning useful publications in the field of gardening, including not 
only new books, but also those which, while already current, the 
Committee feels have not been brought to the attention of the readers 
as they deserve.
