Liger, Louis, sieur d’Auxerre- (cont.) 
Le Manage des champs et le Jardinier fran^ois accommode?, 
au gout du temps. 1710? et seq. (oont.) 
As the •work, in practically all issues, does not show the name 
of Liger on the title-page, it has been variously attributed. As 
its contents consist chiefly of the ”Delices de la campagne” and 
’’Jardinier fran^ois” of Bonnefons, it is sometimes attributed to 
him. Seguier, Bib. Bot., p.362, gives the issue of Bruxelles, J, 
Leonard, 1733, under ”Ferri^re, IT. de la,” and Miltitz, Bib. Bot., 
col.300, enters one of Bruxelles, 1735, under the same name. 
There are several editions that are hard to classify, Vicaire 
gives one of Paris, 1729, withoi’t collation or publisher’s njvrae. 
He lists it among issues of the entire -work, but all the Paris 
editions after 1711 seem to be of the separate parts, quite in¬ 
dependent of each other, Miltitz, Bib. Bot., coll296, gives as 
anonymous "Le Menage de la vil]e et des champs et le jardinier 
fran^ois accoramodd au gout du temps," with the imprint, Troyes, 
1723, This appears in Haller, Bib. Bot. 1:421, under Bonnefons; 
and the British Museum actually has a copy of the latter’s "Jar¬ 
dinier franjois" with imprint, "Troyes, Vve de Jac. Oudot, 1723," 
I am inclined to believe these -two imprints of Troyes, 1723, rep¬ 
resent the same work.
