New York the Treasure House 
In New York, as in no other city, can be found the new, the lovely, 
the individual, thing. Artist, manufacturer, craftsman, alike bring 
their best to what is now the greatest market of the world. 
House & Garden the Treasure Key 
From all these beautiful things. House & Garden’s editors select 
every month those things for the house and garden which combine 
the greatest degree of individuality, excellent workmanship, and 
good value. These are shown in our shopping pages. 
In This June Number 
for example, we show everything for the country house, from an 
iron fence to a bird-bath. There are convenient fittings for the 
sleeping porch, country china and glassware, clever little screens 
and wardrobes for the small week-end cottage, a duck of a bridge- 
table, a decorative couch-hammock for indoor use, and the kind of 
garden furniture that isn’t at all disconcerted by being rained on.
