Excerpt from A Lecture on the Geography of Plants The outlines of the following Lecture were delivered before the members of the Mechanics' Institute at Chichester. It was illustrated by reference to maps, and, indeed, would be scarcely intelligible without such reference; I have therefore added some maps of the principal divisions of the world, in which the names of plants are substituted for the names of places. Cultivated plants are distinguished by Roman letters, those growing wild by Italics. It must not be supposed, however, that these plants grow exclusively in the very spot where their names are marked; the greater number of those native to the south of Europe, for instance, are found alike in Spain, Italy, and Turkey. I have, notwithstanding, endeavoured to place each name in a situation as accurately specific as the nature of the subject admits; thus, Wheat, Barley, and Oats, might be inserted indiscriminately as cultivated in any part of England; but I have placed Oats in Lincolnshire, Barley in Norfolk, Wheat in Suffolk and Essex, because the soil in each of these counties is better adapted to the sort there inserted than to other kinds of Grain.

Excerpt from The Geography of Plants Much assistance has been derived in the preparation of these pages from the works of of M. Meyen, Dr. Lindley, Mrs. And Dr. Carpenter; and to the works of the first of these authors and of baron Humboldt, the reader who desires further information is directed. Mr. H. C. Watson's Cybele Brittanica will also afford much instruction in regard to the geographical distribution of British plants.

Excerpt from An Introduction to Plant Geography The importance of vegetation for the student of geo graphy, and in the teaching of geography, is gradually being recognized. As an indication of the quality of a region it must be taken into account. For instance, the differences between the denser forests Of the low-lying swampy lands round equatorial rivers and the Opener woods of the better drained higher ground between them are of great importance. In practical affairs the distri bution of this or that plant association may Often be taken as a guide to the profitable extension of cultivation of this or that crop.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Plant-Breeding Being Five Lectures Upon the Amelioration of Domestic Plants I do not know of any explicit and sustained attempt to account for the evolution of all gar den forms, and I have therefore brought together in this volume the subject-matter of various lectures which I have been in the habit of giving before my students. The first and third lectures were newly elaborated the present summer for two addresses before the class in biology which came together at the University of Pennsylvania, under the auspices of the American Society for the Extension of Univer sity Teaching. The second lecture was first presented before the Massachusetts State Board of Agriculture, in Boston, December 1, 1891.

Excerpt from Flora of the Vicinity of New York: A Contribution to Plant Geography This book deals chiefly with the distribution of the flora near New York. Taxonomy and nomenclature are considered only as fundamentals upon which the phytogeographical structure of the book has been reared. This has been done because of the belief that local flora lists and manuals are significant chiefly as they are projectors of ideas rather than mere records of species, be those records ever so accurate. The attempt to explain the origin of the flora centering near the city, and the factors that have played their part in shaping its present composition, has, it seems to the writer, greater value than any enumeration of the species could possibly have. The opportunity for deductive reasoning on the distribution of our flora can be rightly based only on a complete and accurate record of the occurrence of individual species, authenticated by herbarium specimens and reliable field notes. Our knowledge, therefore, is limited by the amount and the availability of such information, and, in the present instance, no one is so conscious of the scarcity of such material as the writer. The book, therefore, is not so much a local flora as a method of writing one, - in some ways it is little more than a record of the incompleteness of our present knowledge. The work was begun at the New York Botanical Garden, in January, 1909, and continued until March, 1911. Since then it has been carried on at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, where a division of time between it and increasing administrative duties became necessary. To the directors of both institutions grateful acknowledgement is due for much help and encouragement. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Plant-Breeding Being Six Lectures Upon the Amelioration of Domestic Plants IN the eight years since this book was sent to the printer, there have been great changes in our attitude toward most of the fundamental questions that are discussed in its pages. In fact, these years may be said to have marked a transition between two habits of thought in respect to the means of the evolution of plants, - from the points of view held by Darwin and the older writers to those arising from definite experimental studies in species and varieties. We have not given up the old nor wholly accepted the new, but it is certain that our outlook is shifting. So far as practical plant-breeding is involved, the changing attitude is concerned chiefly with discussions of the nature of varieties and the nature of hybridi zation.
