Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Salads and Their Cultivation: How to Grow All Kinds of Saladings in the Open Air, on Hotbeds and Under Glass, by the Most Approved English and French Methods
N o apology is needed for publishing a volume devoted to the culture of vegetables for salad purposes. It is true the subject has already received its full measure of attention in books dealing with the cultivation of vegetables generally, but no one seems to have hitherto deemed it worthy of the dignity and honour of a special volume. So we, in con junction with the Publishers, have come to the conclusion that, as salads have become more popular as a feature in our daily menus, so there has also arisen a correspondingly greater demand for cultural information thereon, and this fact has prompted the publication of the present handbook.
