Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Increase the Yield of Wheat in California Fig. 1.4birdseye View of California Cereal Station, Sacramento Valley. Fig. 2. - Genera1 view of grain plats on the Tulare Station, 1908. The investigations covered by this report are in general based. Upon results and observations covering a long period. For a limited time a portion of the work was conducted in co-operation with the Bureau of Plant Industry of the United States Department of Agriculture. Both the field and laboratory investigations have covered a wide range. They embrace the relative value of deep vs. Shallow plowing, early vs. Late seeding, drill vs. Broadcast seeding, trials with fertil izers, the effect of certain rotation schemes, the improvement of the soil through green-manuring, moisture conservation, the treatment of. Grain for the prevention of smut, the value of exchanging seed, clean ing the land from weeds both by cultural methods and the use of chemical sprays, and finally, variety trials and the development of better types of grain than those commonly grown. In the study of the general question of environmental influence upon the quality of wheat, and also the selection work involving an increase of the gluten content, there has of course been a large amount of chemical work required. Questions involved along these lines have been the influence upon the gluten content of the length of the growing period, of the time of harvest, of the time of seeding, of the time the wheat plant receives its moisture, the influence of sunshine and of the composition of the soil. The environmental question as affecting the gluten content will be the theme of a separate report. In this report an effort has been made to so correlate the cultural results and observations that they may be of immediate benefit to the California grain growers, in effecting improvement in soil fertility, increasing the yield of grain, and. Improving the milling quality of the grain produced. It should be said that these results should be considered as simply the foundation for more extensive work. The element of time is an all-essential one for the solution of such problems as these. This would be true even though the problem was merely the develop ment of grain giving higher yields, but, with the introduction of the problem of increasing the gluten content, the element of time is of even greater importance.

This book was released on 2016-08-16 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Improvement of the Wheat Crop in California An impression exists among many California farmers that the soil will no longer produce profitable yields of good milling wheats This impression is strengthened by two well - recognized facts (1) That under past and present methods of wheat culture the soil is failing in many localities to produce as large crops as heretofore, and (2) that the Australian and Club varieties, the most widely grown California wheats, are extremely starchy. As only these very starchy varieties have been extensively grown, it has become necessary for the millers to import large quantities of Turkey wheat from the Middle West to blend with the California wheats.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from California White Wheats My opinion is that this is a complete history of the introduction of Propo wheat into California. The wheat was at onetime held in high esteem both by farmers and millers. The latter still regard it highly as compared with the other California varieties, but growers have gradually drifted to One, Or another of those mentioned. Previously as giving greater returns in yield in the interior valleys. In'the coast sections, however, Propo still holds its own and constitutes the bulk of the wheat there produced.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Californian Wheat Industry Most of this Californian wheat is exported either to Europe or the East, or to Central and South America; occasionally it has been sent to Australia. These enterprising people are sending their wheat not only to China and Japan, but actually to Europe by way of the Pacific and the Suez Canal in other words, are growing wheat of the Australian class and sending it in steamers, six thousand miles further, to the same market. The fact that wheat of our own class, grown under climatic conditions similar to ours, is made the basis of a large export trade cannot fail to be of interest to our wheat-growers and merchants, and any lessons to be learned from a study of the particulars of such an industry are lessons we should master at the earliest opportunity. This thought gave zest to much of my recent travel in California and other Pacific Coast States of North America.

Download or read book Cuisine and Empire written by Rachel Laudan and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2015-04-03 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rachel Laudan tells the remarkable story of the rise and fall of the world’s great cuisines—from the mastery of grain cooking some twenty thousand years ago, to the present—in this superbly researched book. Probing beneath the apparent confusion of dozens of cuisines to reveal the underlying simplicity of the culinary family tree, she shows how periodic seismic shifts in “culinary philosophy”—beliefs about health, the economy, politics, society and the gods—prompted the construction of new cuisines, a handful of which, chosen as the cuisines of empires, came to dominate the globe. Cuisine and Empire shows how merchants, missionaries, and the military took cuisines over mountains, oceans, deserts, and across political frontiers. Laudan’s innovative narrative treats cuisine, like language, clothing, or architecture, as something constructed by humans. By emphasizing how cooking turns farm products into food and by taking the globe rather than the nation as the stage, she challenges the agrarian, romantic, and nationalistic myths that underlie the contemporary food movement.
