Abstract
GARDENING books are becoming noted for containing a small amount of gardening information largely diluted with something that has little or no relevance to horticultural pursuits. The diluting medium may be cookery or hygiene, tirades against vivisection, stale jokes, spiritualism, anything, in fact. In the present book gardening, or one phase of it, represents the slices of bread, between which are inserted, sandwich-fashion, dissertations on the molecular structure of the brain and nerve centres, and discussions on the origin of thought and the nature of religious impressions.
