This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Fruit Growers' Association of Ontario, for the Year 1884 The strawberry, being the earliest fruit of the season, will first claim our attention. The cultivated varieties so deservedly popular in America are believed to be the progeny of crosses between the Fragaria Grandiflora of South America with our native Fragaria Virginiana, while the European sorts are said to have their origin in a similar manner from crosses between Fragaria Chilensis, of South America, and Fragaria Vesca, of Europe. The C'hilensis has light-coloured fruit and is less hardy, and the effect of this is seen in the general lighter colour of the progeny, and their inability to endure well the cold of our severe winters. As far as can be ascertained, the first of the American hybrids was Hovey's seedling, a variety which made its appearance in 1834, just fifty years ago. It held a prominent place in the estimation of strawberry growers for a very long period, and is still cultivated to some extent. Strawberries are divided into two classes, the pistillate and the hermaphrodite. The pistillate forms have the female organs in the flower well developed, while the pollen-bearing male organs are imperfect. Those known as hermaphrodites have perfect blossoms, in which both male and female organs are fully developed. In planting strawberries it is necessary to bear in mind this distinction, for, should a plantation be made of all pistillate forms the crop will be a failure 3 in such case all that is necessary to secure fruitfulness is to plant a row of one of the pollen-bearing varieties between every third or fourth row of the others, when the busy bees and other insects will carry the pollen from flower to flower until the whole are fertilized. I have enquired into the merits of more than sixty varieties of strawberries, all of which have been or are being tested in our Province; but I do not propose to weary you with a description of each, but to refer briefly to the leading sorts grown, adding those among the newer ones which seem to be of special promise.

This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forty-Third Annual Report of the Fruit Growers' Association of Ontario, 1911 The number of new fruits of merit which are introduced each year is quite small. This is fortunate, in that fruit growers are not tempted to grow a large number of varieties. Many of them grow too many already without undue tempta tion. The time is coming, however, when there will be many new fruits of merit available for introduction, and there should be some plan worked out whereby the grower will be kept from planting any large number of trees or plants of a variety which has not been strongly recommended by some institution or society. The practice of cc-operative societies buying fruit trees for their members is a good one, as in this way the number of varieties grown in a district is limited, and only those most suitable for the district are planted. The reason why a large number of varieties Of merit will soon be available for introduction as that up to within quite recent years the development Of new sorts by the Experiment Stations has been carried on. In a very small way, and few things worthy of being grown in the best fruit districts have been originated. All this is changed, however, and fruit breeding is now an important part of the work Of the Horticultural Department of a large proportion of the fifty Odd Experiment Stations in the United States, and Canada also is doing, if not her share, at least doing something. Two States which are breeding fruits on a large scale are South Dakota and Minnesota. From South Dakota a number of new fruits have already been. Sent out and the Minnesota State Breeding Station, though organized but a few years ago, has originated some good things already. The New York Experi ment Station is beginning to distribute new fruits, and has already sent out some new apples, raspberries, and strawberries. The standard varieties we have to-day are almost all of them chance seedlings from the thousands of seedlings which have sprung in America and Europe during the past one hundred years or more, and it is scarcely-to be expected that anything as good will be Obtained from the limited number grown by comparatively few institutions and individuals for the especial purpose of Obtaining new varieties.

This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twentieth Annual Report of the Fruit Growers' Association of Ontario, 1888 I can be satisfied of this by placing a few insects in a glass case with specimens of Duchess of Oldenburg apple. They will in a few hours eat into the apple. I have often observed small holes eaten into plums and apples which I supposed were caused either by birds or ants, but later experiment and observation convince me beyond a doubt that the little Turk has at all events in most instances been the cause. There is no question but the use of Paris green has ridden many sections of this pest, and I hope its use, judiciously, will be continued in the fight with the codling moth. The orchard planted under directions of a committee of this Association on the Model Farm at Guelph is practically useless for our purposes, owing chiefly to the fact that the grounds selected were not underdrained before planting as we directed. Another should at once be set out under more favorable circumstances. If we cannot succeed at once in convincing the authorities at the helm of State of the necessity there exists for the introduction of some simple text book on agriculture and horticulture, perhaps they can be induced, as a stepping stone in the right direction, to require that practical horticulture be introduced into all our school grounds. Get the children interested in the trees, shrubs and flowers and they will grow up to bless those who introduced this new era, for such teachings and tastes will have a marked effect for good through after life. While governments are doing so much to advance the interests of other classes in the community surely the tillers of the soil should not be neglected, nor should means be spared to educate the children of this country up to a true appreciation of this most interesting and refining science. I fear there is much in the present educational system that has the effect of drawing our best young men away from farming life, and I do not wonder that leading agriculturists are taking the matter up at institute meetings.

This book was released on 2018-09-06 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Fruit Growers' Association of Ontario, for the Year 1887 In, any case, it pays to store long keepers here rather than ship early, as they will realize much better prices, besides keeping better in this dry climate that in the damp and clammy winters of Britain. The large grape crop of the present season and the exceedingly low prices, icauses the growers to ask what are the prospects of obtaining markets for an increasing supply? I firmly believe that if proper cold storage can be secured on the steamships, Britain will soon prove to be a good market for our open air grapes. But as the taste for them is' one that must be acquired largely, such a trade must be approached with all due care. The only class of grape consumers in Britain are those who can afford to pay very high prices for hot-house varieties, and those who are satisfied with the poor quality of the ordinary ' spanish white grape of commerce. I have no doubt at all that our grapes would find a ready class of consumers if once introduced in competition with the Spanish grape. It will be necessary to test various ways of carrying our grapes and various packages, so as to ensure their arrival in perfect condition. Those packed in berry boxes tightly enclosed in a case containing some ten or a dozen such boxes, carried better than in any other way to the Colonial at London last year. The square boxes used last year for apples and pears were not after all so serviceable as good neat barrels. Fruit could not be packed tightly in theboxes, and hence bruised badly. Undoubtedly the barrel is by far the best package yet tried for apples fiand when the quarter hoops are driven down far enough to allow the barrel roll upon them, it saves the fruit from bruising in the bilge of the barrel.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Promising New Fruits During the past five years this apple, which has long been grown in certain localities in Missouri, has attracted marked attention as a variety well adapted to planting in commercial orchards in that and neighboring States. Combining, as it does, the desirable characteris tics of the old Ralls (variously known in the Middle and Southern States under the synonyms Rawles Genet, Rawles Janet, Geniton, lveverfail, and some twenty-five others), with larger size and brighter color than that well-known sort, it appears to have been first described and illustrated under the name Ingram Seedling in the Journal of Agriculture, published at St. Louis, Mo., and somewhat later, in 1868, in the Horticulturist, Vol. XXIII, p. 201.

Download or read book Canadian Horticulturist Vol 2 written by D. W. Beadle and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-18 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Canadian Horticulturist, Vol. 2: Published by the Fruit Growers' Association of Ontario The Lady Apple sold for thirty to forty shillings per barrel, say from seven to ten dollars. This is strictly a fancy apple. It is in demand about the holidays for table decoration as much as for the dessert. The apples are very small, but most beautifully colored, with a bright red cheek on a straw-colored ground. We have known them bring as much and more in the New York market; but every speci men must be perfect, without a spot or blemish of any kind. It is very probable that this kind also is more certain to produce perfect fruit in soils abou'nding in lime, for in other soils it is sometimes badly spotted. Baldwins from the United States brought from six and three pence to thirteen and nine pence, while those from Canada are quoted at, from twelve to thirteen shillings. If anything were needed to enforce the lesson of care in the selection and handling of fruit for market we certainly have it in the quotations before us. The difference between a dollar and a half and three dollars per barrel is well worth attention. The cost of the barrel, of the packing, shipping, and insuring, is as great in the one case as the other, but the chances of a profit are very decidedly in favor of the man who gets three dollars instead of a dollar and a half per barrel.
