I must congratulate you on the great improve¬ 
ment in “The American Garden.” Always 
good, it is one now that any publisher may well 
be proud of. Letter-press and art both combine 
to make it a complete work for the library as 
well as beautiful for the center table.—B. S. 
HOXIE, Secretary Wisconsin Horticultural 
Society. 
I am very sorry that I could not get any more subscriptions, 
but, to the credit of your paper, it is taken by almost every 
one connected, or interested, in the gardening business in 
this city.—FRANCIS MARQUADE, Gardener, New Haven, 
Conn. 
It is, without a doubt, the “Gilt Edge" of 
Agricultural Monthlies in the United States. 
Count me a life subscriber, and may the “Am¬ 
erican Garden ” live long and prosper.—G. LOU- 
TREL LUCAS, Grower of Pineapples, Indian 
River, Florida. 
You - Magazine continues to go ahead rapidly. It is mag¬ 
nify ant. and almost makes me wish I was in horticulture 
aga.n —W. J. BEAL, Michigan Agricultural College. 
Your January issue is so charming that I feel 
I must thank you for the pleasure it has given 
me. The design on the cover is so graceful 
and the type and paper so superior that it must 
emphatically be regarded as the best-dressed of 
our horticultural papers, while the new form is 
certainly a great improvement. With its ex¬ 
cellent reading matter and fine illustrations t 
goes far beyond a mere trade journal ; it must 
be regarded as the magazine for all lovers of 
nature With wishes for its continued prosper¬ 
ity i a:ii Yours faithfully, 
EM. LOUISE TAPLIN, New Jersey. 
Your adrr.irabla Journal has certainly touched high-water 
mark, and you may well feel proud of it.—CHARLES
