A GUIDE TO THE AMATEUR IN THE 
Fruit, Vegetable, and Flower 
Garden, 
WITH FULL DIRECTIONS FOR THE 
Greenhouse, Conservatory, and 
WIIB0W GARBEN. 
By PETER HENDERSON, 
AUTHOR OP “GARDENING FOR PROFIT,” AND 11 PRAC¬ 
TICAL FLORICULTURE.” 
ILLUSTRATED. 
It is one of the best guides to window-gardening we 
know of. The fact is, that the number of plants that can 
be successfully grown in window-gardening is very limit¬ 
ed, and though it is possible to make a very large list of 
those which maybe grown, if unusual pains bo taken, 
the general cultivator wishes only to undertake those 
which promise to he successful with a moderate expendi¬ 
ture of time and attention. The rules to ho observed in 
order to succeed with window plants, are very few, and 
the whole story is plainly told.— Christian Advocate ,

Allen’s American Farm Book lias been one of I lie standard

his brother, Hon. Lewis F. Allen, the distinguished farmer 
of Erie county, editor of the American Shorthorn Herd- 
Book. The work is greatly enlarged, and full of suggestions 
from the rich experience of its editor and reviser, and is

IS MY GARDEN, 
By E. P. ROE, 
Author of “ Barriers Burned Away," etc. 
NOTICES BY THE PRESS. 
The author takes us to liis garden on the rocky liill-sides in 
the vicinity of West Point and shows us how out of it, after 
four years' experience, lie evoked a profit of $1,000, and this 
while carrying on pastoral and literary labors. .... It 
is very rare that so much literary taste and skill are mated 
to so much agricultural experience and practical good sense. 
—Harper's Magazine. 
This book is as poetical as it is practical. Still he is no 
dreamer. He goes into every essential detail with as much 
minuteness and precision as if lie were writing a manual for 
the practical farmer. Indeed few works professedly de¬ 
voted to agriculture give more sound and valuable informa¬ 
tion on tlie secret of winning golden harvests from the soil 
than this brief idyllic sketch. — _V. Y. Tribune.
