In justice to tlie majority of our sub¬

culturist,” containing articles referred to 
in the “ Basket ” or elsewhere, can al¬

The German Edition.— All the principal arti¬ 
cles and engravings that appear in the American Agricul¬ 
turist are reproduced in the German Edition. Besides 
these, there is a special department, edited by an eminent 
German cultivator. Our friends can do us a good service 
by calling the attention of their German neighbors and 
friends to the fact that they can have the paper in their 
own language, and those who employ Germans will 
find this Journal a most useful and acceptable present.

Henderson’s Hand-Book of Plants, by 
Peter Henderson. This work is intended as a reference 
book for florists and others, or a dictionary of plants. It 
gives brief descriptions of the various genera of the 
plants in cultivation, their native countries, history of 
their introduction, etc. A large share of such a work 
must, of course, be a compilation ; its greatest value will 
be found in its cultural directions, which, as they are 
drawn from the author’s wide and successful experience, 
will be acceptable not only to amateurs, but to profes¬ 
sional florists, as with reference to the more important 
commercial plants, this is given at length. Another 
valuable feature of the work, is the special attention 
given to common names. A large share of the work is 
occupied by a glossary, which, besides defining terms, 
gives various articles on implements, insects, and other 
matters not included in the body of the work. That the 
work contains much that is valuable, there can be no 
doubt, but how far it meets the author's own idea, in 
supplying “a concise and comprehensive dictionary of 
plants,” can only be ascertained after it has been sub¬ 
jected to the test of usage. Price, by mail, $3.00. 
Kerosene Barrels. —Replies continue to come to 
our request, that (hose who had successfully cleaned oil- 
barrels, would give their experience. Mrs. " M. E. C.,” 
Orange Co., Fla., writes: “For the last six months I 
have used a kerosene barrel—well charred in the burn¬ 
ing—for drinking water, and would not hesitate to use 
it for syrup or molasses. We commenced using it at 
once, without lengthy soaking.”
