GARDEN MAINTENANCE, by H. Stuart Ortloff and Henry B. 
Raymore. Every one who has a garden wants constantly to 
know how to care for it—how to prune, fertilize, spray, and care 
for flowers, trees, shrubs, and lawns. This is a book to answer 
all such questions, and to bring success to established gardens 
as well as to those newly planned and planted. It is written for 
the home owner who already has a lawn and garden space; it 
does not presuppose a new garden or the complete rearrange¬ 
ment of existing plantings. Illustrated with photographs and drawings, frontis¬ 
piece in color. Cloth, 8vo. $2.50. 
PLANT NAMES, by T. S. Lindsay, If jaw-breaking plant names 
puzzle you, this little book will make the system and the reasons 
clear. It tells how plants are named, why they are named as they 
are, and just what each word form, prefix, or suffix means. 98 
pages. $ 1 . 00 .
