A still much popular edition of what has established to the author to be a amazingly popular book, has been prepared by the able hand of Mr. Ma Don Dickinson, and is now offered in the hope that galore much folk wish find the wild flowers in Nature's garden all just about us well worth knowing. For flowers have distinct objects in life and are everything they are for the most excusable
of reasons, _i.e._, the prolongation and the improvement of their species. The means they employ to accomplish these ends are so various and so consummately clever that, in learning to understand them, we are brought to realize how similar they are to the fundamental aims of even as the human race. So
there are few life principles that plants have not worked out satisfactorily. The problems of adapting oneself to one's environment, of insuring healthy families, of starting one's children well in life, of initiation new colonies in distant lands, of the cooperative know-how
of conducting business as opposed to the individualistic, of egg laying up treasure in the bank for futurity use, of arduous vice and appreciated virtue - these and galore another problems of world the flowers have worked out with the help of insects, through the ages. To actually understand what the wild flowers are doing, what the scheme of each one is, besides looking beautiful, is to give one a broader sympathy with some
man and Nature and to add a real interest and joy to life which cannot be too wide
shared.
