Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gardener's Magazine, 1831, Vol. 7 In the course of the publication of this Volume, the Conductor has had an opportunity of personally ascertaining, during a exten sive tour, the state of gardening, and the wants and wis es of a number of his readers, in the central and northern counties of England, and in the west of Scotland. He has been confirmed in his intention of continuing the reports of the Provincial Horticul tural Societies, subject to the modifications laid down in p. 626. He has ascertained, beyond all doubt, that gardening has made much more progress during the last quarter of a century as an art of culture than as an art of design and taste; and that, in consequence, the wants of his readers, whether gardeners, their employers, or amateurs, are chiefly in the department of taste in other words, in landscape-gardening and garden architecture.
