In the German version the tract on melon cul¬ 
ture, sometimes attributed to La Quintinie, but 
clearly proven to be of Dutch or Flemish origin, 
is always included, and paged consecutively with 
the "Nouvelle instruction".

[Italian] Istruzione per la coltura de* fiori,

Venetia, G, Albrizzi, I704) (Arn, Arb,} Bib, Nat. Paris) 
The 2d ed, of the condensed Italian version 
of Dahuron is said to be enlarged by the "Istru- 
zione ,,, della M, della Quintinye", meaning of 
course the "Nouvelle instruction pour la culture 
des fleurs" that has been attributed to La Quin¬ 
tinie because it was originally published in the 
Paris, 1695, issue of his "Instruction pour les 
Jardins fruitiers et potagers". It probably ap¬ 
peared in all the later issues of this Italian 
translation of Dahuron. Its contents are evi¬ 
dently much condensed, (MFW)
