Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cultivation and Diseases of Fruit Trees in the Maltese Islands The cultivation of fruit trees represents a more advanced stage of civilization than the mere cultivation of field crops, and could be taken up only by a people which has settled down and occupied the land for good, and has given up definitely its original nomadic habits. Half-savage tribes with ill-defined ideas of property, and therefore with no notion of continuity, may have their herds of domestic animals, and may grow field crops or even such perennials, as the banana, which are likely to yield an early and abundant food, but have no fruit groves or orchards, and rely chiefly on the produce of the trees of their native forests. Hence the idea of property or continuity is the first condition for the cultivation of fruit trees. Land held in common, belongs to nobody, and it requires an altruism altogether beyond human nature for the individual to go to the trouble of planting trees, the fruit of which others will gather who have no connection with the planter and no natural claim on the results of his labour. In the same manner the farmer who holds his land on short lease, - and our short lease is based on a brief period of a four years course of rotation, - can have no right of property on the fruits of his labour after the expiration of the term of lease, and if he improves the land by planting fruit trees, his rent is probably increased just when the trees are coming to fruit so that he is either ousted out of his land by some other farmer who is willing to pay more rent for improvements made by others, or he has to submit to pay the increase of rent demanded from him.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Diseases of Fruit Crops It is a curious but logical fact that in spite of a rapidly increasing population and an increased demand for fruit, there has been a decided decrease in the number of deciduous fruit trees in the United States during the last thirty years. With this marked decrease in the number of trees, there has been only a slight decrease in total production, and it is probable that there has been an increase in fruit which actually reaches the ultimate consumer. It is evident that diseases and insects have eliminated millions of fruit trees and that those which remain have been made much more productive owing to the control of pests. This more efficient and more stable production in spite of the increase in the number Of parasites has been made possible mainly by the scientific development of plant protection. Efficient plant protection has been made possible only by a thorough knowledge of the nature and cause of the diseases of plants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fruit-Blights and Diseases of Fruit-Trees: Interim Report The climate of New Zealand is exceptionally favourable to the rapid increase and vigorous growth of insects and plants introduced from temperate countries. European insects and weeds, when intro duced, ourish with a vigour rarely exhibited in their native country, and increase with greater rapidity. But this is not all: under the new conditions induced by extensive cultivation the food-supply of many native pests has been increased to an unlimited extent, so that it is no matter for surprise that the grass - grub, lemon-tree-borer, and several species of scale, are found in ever-increasing numbers, and give good promise of excelling their imported allies in their powers of destruction. In former years fruit-cultivation was carried on under easier con dition: few insects had been introduced, and indigenous kinds had not discovered the more enticing food-supply afforded by introduced fruit-trees. All this is changed a tree is no sooner planted than it is in danger of being attacked, and requires to be frequently inspected 'in order that noxious insects and fungi may be destroyed on their first appearance. The intending fruit-grower should consider this risk before planting. Unless he determines beforehand that his trees shall be kept clean at any cost, his anticipations of profit will be dis appointed, and his orchards will be a source of infection for the whole country side.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Collected Leaflets on Fungus Pests and Allied Diseases of Fruit Trees Unlike insect pests, which are for the most part more or less clearly understood, there is often a certain mystery in the public mind connected with fungi. Their strange form, sudden appear ance and devastating habits are not readily explainable. To the practical fruit grower painful familiarity with their presence soon robs fungus parasites of any mysterious charm, and, by force of circumstances, he is compelled to study them, if it be only their mode of attacking plants and the best methods of keeping them at bay. Whether, however, the origin and} habits are understood or not, it may not be inadvisable to point out at the commencement of this volume the main outlines of the life of any ordinary fungus.
