ARCMA HORTENSlA (cont.) 
- Wohlbewahrtes garten-buch, worinnen nicht nur 
von vielen seltenen geheimnissen sondern auch von den pflan- 
zen, blumen, und andern garten-gewachsen, aueh der baum- 
zucht, von allerband ordinaren, wie auch besonders'von 
zwerg-baumen niitzliche anzeige und grlindliche nachricht 
ertheilet wird von Isidoinis /oithophllus [pseud.] Lu- 
cern und Strassburg, Gedruckt auf kosten guter freunde, 
1758, 370 p. (Dept, Agr.; Mass. Hort. Soc,; Mo, 
Bot. Gard.) 
Altho the title is greatly changedand the 
name of a supposed author supplied, this issue 
seems to be precisely like that of 1752, even 
having the same niomber of pages, and is doubt¬ 
less an absolute plagiary. (I.1FW) 
- Wohlerfahrener blumen-, kuchen-, baum- und kunst- 
gartner. Augsburg, Rieger, 1779, (Darmstadt, Gartenbau 
Ver., Verz. Bucher (1875), p,8; Kayser, Biicher-Lex. 1:83) 
Altho there is no direct evidence to connect 
this with the "Arcana hortensia,", Kayser gives 
it under "Antbphilus, Isidorus”,’’which, except 
for a slight change in spelling, is the name 
of the supposed author of the preceding book. 
As the latter is evidently pirated from the 
"Arcana" of 1752, it would not be surprising 
to find this work of 1779 also belonging to 
the same series of reprints. (MFW)
