Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bush-Fruits Large areas of some Of the bush-fruits are grown at times, but their more important place is in diversified fruit growing. Under exceptional conditions, with an assured market at hand, the growing Of large areas of a single fruit may be wise, but under normal conditions it is likely to be fraught with disappointment. The production and consumption Of strawberries is nearly or quite as great now as ever, but the tendency is apparently away from larger areas, the total product being grown by a much larger number Of men, most Of whom supply the de mands of their own locality, rather than depend on the wider wholesale markets Of the country. This tendency is doubtless wise, for the home market is Often the best. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Bush Fruit Culture in California Classic Reprint written by Arthur Howard Hendrickson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bush Fruit Culture in California Bush fruits, especially the brambles, or fruits of the raspberry and blackberry type (see frontispiece), are grown in nearly all parts of California. The plantings vary from the few bushes cultivated for home use to plantations in which several hundred acres may be devoted to the production of enough berries to supply both local and distant markets with fresh fruit and allow a considerable portion of the surplus to be canned. Nearly all of the bush fruits are adapted to California soil and climatic conditions. Although some of the sorts are not grown extensively in the hot, dry sections of the state, even these may be grown in home gardens by judicious handling. With a succession of varieties, berries for the table may be produced throughout a long season. Bush berries are, for the most part, best adapted for growing in regions comparatively close to the consuming centers. They are generally consumed in the fresh conditions and must, therefore, be fully mature. And present an attractive appearance when displayed for sale. In some districts a considerable portion of the crop is preserved, or made into jams and jellies. Small quantities are sometimes dehydrated and sold as dried fruit. Probably the chief outlet for the commercially canned berries is the bakery trade, in which they are made into pies or tarts. This trade also uses a. Considerable quantity of frozen berries. In the latter case, the berries are fro-zen and keptfin the original container at a temper 'ature of about 20 degrees Fahrenheit until used. Berries handled in this way are said to retain more nearly the fresh flavor and aroma than those preserved in any other manner.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bush Fruits, With Lists of Varieties Found Most UsefulSir, - I have the honour to submit for your approval the Fifty-sixth Bulletin of the Experimental Farm Series on Bush Fruits, which has been prepared at my request by Mr. W. T. Macoun, Horticulturist of the Central Experimental Farm.The cultivation of small fruits has of late years engaged the attention of a large number of fruit growers and farmers in the different provinces of Canada, many of whom have found in this occupation a considerable source of profit. The fact that many of these useful fruits can be successfully grown in every settled district in the Dominion makes it important that practical information regarding the most approved methods of cultivation and the most profitable varieties to grow should be widely disseminated.The information submitted by the Horticulturist in this bulletin contains the con elusions reached by him after long experience, and embodies the results of the tests and observations which have been carried on at the Central Experimental Farm for the past twenty years. By adopting the methods of cultivation, and selecting the varieties here recommended, anyone so desiring can, with very little labour, supply his household with delicious fruit during the summer months, when such an addition to the diet is most healthful and necessary.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Growing Tree and Small Fruits It has not seemed worth while to include a detailed treatment Of the life histories Of the Various insects and diseases Of fruit. Such a treatment would require a book in itself. The student has been re ferred to his local experimental station and college of agriculture for information concerning the Insects and diseases Of importance in his community. Emphasis in this book has been placed rather on the mechanics Of the use and application Of materials for control, including a full discussion Of machinery. Likewise, information concerning varieties and variety descriptions is available from so many authoritative sources that it has not been included here, other than to enumerate the varieties Of commercial importance in the various fruit-growing sections.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fruit Growing for Amateurs The cultivation of fruit trees, if practised with care and dis crimination, proves of absorbing interest, and is profitable. If, however, the work is commenced by the inexperienced without due inquiry, and in ignorance of essential details of cultivation, failure, comparative if not absolute, is inevitable. Providing the amateur plants a representative selection of fruits, and disposes them in the positions best suited to their needs, he will not have long to wait for some return on his outlay. He should plant not only Apple, Pear, Plum, Peach, and Cherry - none of which gives a fair cr0p until several years have passed - but Strawberry, Raspberry, Gooseberry, and Currant. If Strawberries are planted in late summer a. Cr0p of excellent fruits may be obtained the following year, and the bush fruits quickly come into bearing. By widening the scope of his fruit garden the amateur adds not only to its interest, but secures a profitable return in as short a time as possible. If walls are available it should be the object of the gardener to cover them without delay, for wall area is valuable. The simplest way to do this is to plant trained standards between the fan-trained trees or espaliers; in the course of years the latter will spread and occupy the whole wall area, but, meanwhile, much fruit can be obtained from the trained standard trees planted to fill the upper part of the wall.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Orchard and Fruit Garden: Their Culture and Produce We have so many excellent large and expensive works on fruit culture, that I should never have thought of writing this one, if its peculiar place had not stood vacant, waiting to be filled. It is the first cheap work on the Orchard and Fruit Garden. Those who, like myself, have had through life some space of land, between a pole and an acre, at command, do not need to be puzzled with lists of hundreds in the selection of the trees they want; their need is one which I have made it my endeavour to supply, i.e. particulars of a few good sorts of fruit trees of all kinds which any careful cultivator can manage, and which may be obtained at any good nursery. The sorts named are good, those I most recommend I have tested, and the directions given respecting their cultivation will be found plain, concise, and practical. I can only hope my little book will be found useful to all who delight in fruit culture, but who cannot command access to voluminous and expensive works upon the subject.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Miniature Fruit Garden: Or the Culture of Pyramidal and Bush Fruit Trees With Instructions for Root-Pruning &C. &C I cannot - and it is not a matter of regret - add anything new. Trees do not change their nature, and the rules for their cultivation in one year, if sound, must be the same in all succeeding years. I have endeavoured to point out a method of making condensed orchards on a system which I believe to be sound, as it is no theory but practice. I can only hope that the present edition may deserve the same success that has hitherto attended all the previous editions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bush-Fruits a Horticultural Monograph of Raspberries, Blackberries, Dewberries, Currants, Gooseberries, and Other Shrub-Like Fruits In a proposed series of monographs on the various types of American fruits, this book is the first. Its purpose is to present both the practical and technical phases of all the important questions concerned in the cultivation and domestication of the fruits under discussion. It has been the effort to separate these two classes of matter, so that the grower may go direct to his subject without being distracted by details of history, botany or entomology; and the student and investigator may be equally at ease in rapid reference to the subjects in which he is primarily interested. A historical sketch is of the greatest value as information and in giving the reader a perspective of the subject, but it is of no direct importance to the cultivation of a crop, and, therefore, should not form an introduction to the practical matter, nor be incorporated with it, notwithstanding the fact that such amalgamation is the custom. The practical matters in this book aim to begin where the cultivator must begin, - with the land and the plant.

Prize Essay, in competition with about sixteen others, for the Gold Medal of the Fruiterers' Company, last year. It was sent to the Judges under the motto of Hope On, and they reported that it was one of those deserving to be considered and described as particularly meritorious. The terms and conditions of that competition stated that the object is to encourage Fruit Culture by Cottagers, and others with small holdings, as a substitute for, or adjunct to, the ordinary methods of cropping their gardens and allotments with roots or other vegetables. This Essay differs from that to which the prize was awarded in one important aspect, namely, that it deals with every variety of fruit usually grown in England, whilst only the ordinary orchard fruits and the hardy bush fruits are treated of in the Prize Essay.
