and, finally, of gathering and packing for market. Illustrated. Cloth, 12mo. =$1.00= =The Secrets of Health, or How Not to Be Sick, and How to Get Well from Sickness.= By S. H. Platt, A. M., M. D., late member of the Connecticut Eclectic Medical Society, the National Eclectic Medical Association, and honorary member of the National Bacteriological Society of America; our medical editor and author of "Talks With Our Doctor" and "Our Health Adviser." Nearly 600 pages. Profusely illustrated. An index of 20 pages, so that any topic may be instantly consulted. A new departure in medical knowledge for the people--the latest progress, secrets and practices of all schools of healing made available for the common people--health without medicine, nature without humbug, common sense without folly, science without fraud. 12mo. 576 pp., 81 illustrations. Cloth. =$1.50= =Gardening for Young and Old.= By Joseph Harris. A work intended to interest farmers' boys in farm gardening, which means a better and more profitable form of agriculture. The teachings are given in the familiar manner so well known in the author's "Walks and Talks on the Farm." Illustrated. Cloth, 12mo. =$1.00= =Money in the Garden.= By P. T. Quinn. The author gives in a plain, practical style, instructions on three distinct although closely connected branches of gardening--the kitchen garden, market garden and field culture, from successful practical experience for a term of years. Illustrated. Cloth, 12mo. =$1.00= =The Pruning Book.= By L. H. Bailey. This is the first American work exclusively devoted to pruning. It differs from most other treatises on this subject in that the author takes particular pains to explain the principles of each operation in every detail. Specific advice is given on the pruning of the various kinds of fruits and ornamental trees, shrubs and hedges. Considerable space is devoted to the pruning and training of grapevines, both American and foreign. Every part of the subject is made so clear and plain that it can be readily understood by even the merest beginner. Cloth, 8vo, 530 pages.
