“Handy Hand Book of Greenhouse Ma- 
terials.” It describes every piece, stick 
or fitting required to erect and equip a 
greenhouse. The materials are classi- 
fied, grouped and indexed for ready ref- 
erence. It is the first book of the kind 
published in this country. There are, 
of course, separate catalogs of green- 
houses, boilers and heating and ventilat- 
ing apparatus, but there has been no 
other book published combining them all 
and so arranged that each part, or any 
group of parts, may be taken from a 
prepared list with accompanying prices. 
Readers of Park and Cemetery who 
are interested in this book may have a 
copy on request. Enclosed with the 
book is a small envelope containing a 
hook to hang it up by, so that it is al- 
ways “Handy.” 
The eleventh and twelfth installment 
of the press service of the National 
Council of Horticulture have been is- 
sued, covering the following subjects; 
“Beautiful, Easily Grown Vincas,” 
“Cannas,” “Growing Strawberries,” 
“Salvia splendens,” “Cucumbers,” “Wa- 
ter Lilies in a Tub,” “Japanese Iris,” 
and “More About Deutzias.” Improve- 
ment workers should urge the editors of 
their local papers to apply for and use 
these excellent practical articles. News- 
paper editors can secure copies free of 
charge on application to J. H. Burdett, 
1720 West 124th place, Chicago.
