Altho the title indicates that this work con¬ 
sists of four parts, it appears that only pt.l, 
"Jardin fruitier", and pt.2, "Jardin potager", 
were actually published in 1775* P't«3. "Jardin 
d'ornement", was included in the Nouvelle Id., 
1785; and pt,4, which is often found in copies 
of this edition, was issued separately in I788 
with title: "TraitI de I'orangerie, des serres- 
chaudes et chassis", and regularly forms part 
of the 3d ed,, 1789•
