Mr. Frederick W. Kelsey’s book, 
“The First County Park System,” 
which was recently reviewed at length 
in these pages, has met with a very 
cordial reception b3'' the' press and 
public and a recently issued pros- 
pectus of the book from the publish- 
ers contains some flattering criticisms 
of the work from newspapers 
throughout the country. An illus- 
trated synopsis of the book is now 
running in House and Garden.

The National Council of Horticul- 
ture has arranged for a National 
Congress of Horticulture to convene 
at the Jamestown Exposition during 
the autumn of 1907 to consider topics 
of horticultural interest in its broad- 
est meaning and to bring the more 
or less scattered branches into 
closer union. In addition to the rep- 
resentatives of broader interests, it 
is proposed to include in the assem- 
blage, leading specialists of the vari- 
ous divisions of horticultural work, 
who w’ill consider topics of interest 
to the specialist, either before regu- 
lar, or special meetings of the several 
national societies, in case they ar- 
range to hold a meeting at this time. 
Otherwise, such topics will be pre- 
sented before departmental or sec-

Greenhouses of Satisfaction 
They satisfy everybody. For park or cemetery they are unequalled. The outside 
pleases the eye, the inside satisfies the mind — and the pocket. An artistic exterior — 
a practical interior. You see the Premiers are built by specialists— that is why they 
are so perfect. Double strength everything. A handy man can erect one in a few 
hours— that is because they are so portable.
