=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. Illustrated. =$1.50=
