Strawberries. By W. H. Harrison, M.A. (Simpldn, Marshall, and Co.)—We

fear that the notice of this useful little book has been delayed too long, at least to be practically useful this year. Every one ought to have finished his planting for the next season before this. Still, it may be not unprofitably studied in anticipation of another season. Mr. Harrison, who claims to have had considerable success in strawberry-culture, even to the getting of excellent fruit in the first year, gives complete directions to his readers how to grow, protect, gather, and eat this "best of berries."
