Excerpt from Pictorial Practical Gardening: An Useful Manual for All Classes of Horticulturists; Giving Concise Directions for the Culture and Selection of the Leading Flowers, Fruit, and Vegetables

As no one reads long prefaces, except the author and his feminine connections, I will content myself with saying that the object of this book is to present a. Concise and pleasurable introduction to practical gardening. There are many books on gardening, but I have cast this in a way'o'f my own, chiefly in Order to compress as much information as possible into the space at command. Naturally, it will not suit the old style of writer and reader, who require a. Whole chapter to describe the sowing of a packet Of Cress but there are a few thousands of other gardening people in the world, among whom it may find favour. W. P. W.

J, A complete Pictorial Gardenin likewise Index, will be found at the end of the book.
