ALL ABOUT HOUSE PLANTS 
By Montague Free 
If you love plants, you will find this book irresistible. 
Even if you've never grown plants indoors and even 
if you think you never will, you'll experience a new 
thrill in discovering this new world of indoor gardening. 
And if you are already interested in house plants, 
whether you have only two or three or dozens, you'll 
find this just the book you have always wanted—the 
whole, complete story of gardening in the house. 
Seventeen pages of exquisite full-color plates, fifty 
fine half-tones and fifty pen-and-ink drawings, all newly 
made especially for this book. In addition to showing 
about one hundred individual plants, the illustrations 
portray many of the operations such as potting, pro- 
pagation, making miniature gardens, making terra- 
riums, arranging attractive window gardens, etc. 
Never before has such a valuable collection of pictures 
on indoor gardening been created. Price, $3.50 per 
copy, prepaid. 
‘VISUAL GARDEN MANUAL” 
By Elsa Uppman 
“One picture is worth a thousand words’’, says an 
old Chinese proverb. The nearest thing in gardening, 
to the witnessing of a first hand demonstration by an 
expert is to see a picture of how it is done. This is 
a book of pictures, primarily; a book of close-up visual 
instructions for almost every fundamental flower gar- 
dening technique about which you might ever need to 
know. 
Besides the “Garden Techniques’ section, perhaps 
the most welcome parts of this book will be those de- 
voted to individual annuals, perennials, bulbs, shrubs, 
trees, vines and other plant materials. Price, $1.00 
per copy, prepaid. 
‘“VEGETABLE PRODUCTION 
AND MARKETING”’ 
By Paul Work 
This new book includes 559 pages of discussion of 
soil management, irrigation, seeds, varieties and 
marketing of vegetables. It is a thoroughly practical 
book, covering in addition to the above, the latest in- 
formation on equipment, disease and insect control, 
sales outlets and many other subjects pertaining to the 
production, grading, packing and marketing of vegeta- 
bles. Price, $3.00 per copy, prepaid. 
SUNSET FLOWER 
ARRANGEMENT BOOK 
By Nell True Welch 
Here is a new, simplified, imaginative approach to 
flower arrangement, a book created from start to finish, 
not for the connoisseur, but for use in everyday homes. 
That is why, in these pages, you will find only those 
flowers and other plant materials which you are likely 
to have in your own home garden. Only such vases, 
bowls and other containers are used as are likely to be 
found in any home of good taste. The photographs 
themselves, are some of the best ever taken of flowers. 
Price, $1.50 per copy, prepaid.
