'IN YOUR GARDEN'

@ ' The Small Greenhouse and Pot Plants Indoors'
E. R. Janes and C. H. Middleton
C. H. Middleton , who talks all the year round to people who have a garden, is to devote his talk today to those who have no garden at all. Many flat-dwellers cannot have so much as a window-box, and yet they can enjoy a modified form of garden even in a flat. He will suggest some plants that may be kept throughout the year, as opposed to those that are finished when their brief flowering day is over.
Those of Middleton's admirers who have not yet heard about his new book, ' With C. H. Middleton in your Garden', published last month, will be glad to know that he has written a third volume based on his broadcast talks. His new book is as full of information as ever and covers the broadcasting year, April, 1936 to April, 1937. Some of the original talks were given in the form of conversations with the various specialists that he has from time to time brought to the microphone. ' I pass them on to you ', he writes in his preface, ' in the hope that you may spend a pleasant hour with me in an imaginary chat about our beloved gardens.'
