Editorial. 
——_O0——__ 
E must repeat our acknowledgments 
of indebtedness to our fast-increasing’ 
circle of friends, who are constantly as- 
sisting the Staff of ‘The Australian 
Gardener” to make it a success. The 
flattering Press notices of the publication 
that have appeared from time to time are 
exceedingly gratifying. The issue for Sep- 
tember deals largely with Daffodils. We 
are making a specialty of this flower in 
this number because of the keen interest 
at present centred upon it, and we think 
that our readers will appreciate the prac- 
tical character of the articles given. 
In reference to the Photographic Com- 
petition we may mention that the time 
for entries will close at the end of this 
month.
