Bergen Co.. N. J. A new work, aud the
only one devoted to Small Fruits. Special
treatises of this kind have the advantage
that the author eau more thoroughly dis
cuss his subject, and 60 into greater detail,
than in a work embracing both large and
small fruits. The work covers the whole
ground of Propagation. Culture, Varieties.
Packing for Market, etc.
Contents: Introduction, I. Barberry, III.
Strawberry, Ill Raspberry, ". Black
berry, V. Dwarf Cherry, W. Currant, VII
Gooseberry, VIII. Cornelian Cherry, TX
Cranberry, X. Huckleberry, XI. Sheperdia,
XII. Preparation for Gathering Fruit.
We predict that this work will bring Mr..
Fuller many enemies, as be has given his
opinion about varieties without reserve. On
the other hand il will the more strongly en-
dear him to all true loYers of horticulture, as
these wish 10 have the merits of fruit given
without reference to the persons who intro
uce them.
While very full on all the small fruits, the
Currants and Raspberries have been more
careful elaborated than ever before, and. in
this important part of his book, the author
has had the invaluable counsel of Charles
Downing. The chapter on gathering and
packing fruit is a valuable one, and init are
figured all the baskets and boxes now in
Common use. The book is very finely and
thoroughly illustrated, and makes an admir-
able companion to his Grape Culturist.
