IN MY GARDEN. 
By E. P. ROE, 
Author of “ Barriers Burned Away," et:. 
NOTICES BY THE PRESS. 
The author takes us to his garden on the rocky hill-sidm'ii 
the vicinity of West Point and shows ns how out ol It, ruler 
four years’ experience, lie evoked a profit of $1,000, and f-h.'v 
while carrying on pastoral and literary labors.It 
is very rare that so mucli literary taste and skill are mate 1 
to so much agricultural experience and practical good sente 
—Harper's Magazine. 
Tills hook is as poetical as it is practical. Still lie is no 
dreamer. He goes into every essential detail with as much 
minuteness and precision as if he were writing a manual for 
tlie practical farmer. Indeed few works professedly de¬ 
voted to agriculture give more sound and valuable informa¬ 
tion on the secret of winning golden harvests from the soil 
than tills brief idyllic sketch.— N. Y. Tribune. 
A very charming hook, not only by reason of its pleasant 
style, but for its quiet refined humor and fund of really use¬ 
ful information on the subject of gardening .—Boston Gazette. 
It deserves to stand side by side with “ My Summer in a 
Garden.”— Christian Register. 
A fresh, lively work.— N. P. Observer. 
One reads without weariness and learns much of practical 
value .—Chicago Evening Journal. 
Full of information. Explains just what the reader wishes 
to know. We most heartily commend it .—Providence Even¬ 
ing Press. 
A chatty, sensible, profitable book .—Cleveland Herald. 
The hook gives much valuable information, and gives it 
in tlie pleasantest manner imaginable .—Detroit Daily Union.
