Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Fruit Culture: A Treatise on Planting, Growing, Storage, Etc;, Of Hardy Fruits for Market and Private Growers Much interest has been awakened in the country of recent years in the question of the cultivation of fruit; and though the statements of some of its advocates are obviously exaggerated, there can be no doubt that if the subject was better understood and the knowledge properly applied, a considerable portion of the trade, of which foreign growers now reap the advantage, might be kept in the hands of the English cultivator.

Download or read book Successful Fruit Culture written by Samuel T. Maynard and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Successful Fruit Culture: A Practical Guide to the Cultivation and Propagation of Fruits During the past ten or fifteen years great progress has been made in the cultivation and care of our hardy fruits and especially in the varieties grown, the methods of packing, shipping and marketing, and during this time few books have been written which have kept up with this progress. This progress and the knowledge of insect and fungous pests and their destruction has been largely recorded in scientific books and papers from the numerous experiment stations, with little from the practical and practicing fruit growers, and there is a growing need of a condensed work giving, in plain language, a summary of the scientific progress made, together with the practice of the most successful fruit growers in various sections of the country. Especially is this information needed that those just starting out in the business of fruit growing, or the village home owner who wishes to grow a small quantity of fruit for family consumption, may find in a condensed form the information necessary for success. It is, therefore, the aim of the author to make a book that is up to date in every particular and to cover the entire practice of fruit growing from the starting of the seed or cutting to the marketing of the fruit, though in many cases works devoted to special fruits may be more complete. It is written from the standpoint of the practical fruit grower who is striving to make his business profitable by growing the best fruit possible and at the least cost.

This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ten Years' Practical Experience in Grape and Small Fruit Culture There are a good many farmers and small land owners land who are of the opinion that a soil especially fit for grape growing is required from the commencement. This is erroneous. Every dryish soil that will grow good corn, or potatoes, is good enough. Vines are to be cultivated with success throughout the entire Indian corn-growing region, on the heaviest soils and in the lightest gravel, on the rocky hill-sides of New England and in the alluvial bottom lands of the West, from Maine to California. In every one of the five principal grape-growing regions of the Union, namely, the Ohio Valley (Cincinnati), Lake Shore (Lake Erie), Pleasant Valley (New York), Hermann (Missouri), and California regions, six years vine culture has not very seldom enhanced the value and price of ordinary farm land from $50 to $500 per acre, but it has never lessened its worthiness and market price. Vineyards are foremost in the class of improved lands, and their superiority, as far as rentability is concerned, cannot be doubted. In this respect, I would say, like the author of "My Vineyard at Lakeview," (New York, 1866, Orange Judd & Co.), to every one who is the owner of a farm, or even of a garden of the smallest dimensions: "Try a few vines; the task may lead to more successful results than you have any conception of." And why? There is no plant in existence like the grapevine to adapt itself so well to all sorts of localities, even to such as where fruit-trees, flowers, corn, potatoes, etc., find no foothold. The principles of its cultivation are plain and very easily practiced, and there is indeed no difficulty hidden under the surface of any vine-growing soil. A little care, a little labor, - much pleasure, and little disappointment. That's all. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handy Book Fruit Culture Under Glass The culture under glass of the fruits treated on in this book, has, in some instances, been included in larger and more compendious works on horticulture in general; and on the other hand, various smaller works have appeared, each occupied exclusively by one fruit But there is not, so far as I am aware, any book of moderate size in which the forcing and general culture of these fruits collectively is discussed. The present Handy Book has been written with a view to supplying this want; and the Author indulges the hope that, compact as it is, it will be found to contain every necessary detail with regard to such culture. In writing it, he has kept specially in view the requirements of inexperienced amateurs who wish to superintend their own fruit-houses, and of young gardeners entering on the study of their profession.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fruit Culture: And the Laying Out and Management of a Country Home Occupied as I have been for the past thirty years in the cultivation and sale of fruit and ornamental trees and shrubs, it is but natural that I should receive numerous inquiries as to varieties, their selection, and their culture. There are many books to which reference might be made, some of which are of marked excellence. Downing's "Encyclopaedia of Fruits" is an enduring monument to the memory of the late Charles Downing and his brother Andrew J. Downing, who initiated the work. Few men would be willing, had they the ability, to give such careful, patient, and exhaustive descriptions of every known variety of fruits, as may here be found portrayed with disinterested faithfulness. But this is a book for the professed horticulturist and orchardist. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Fig Culture in Arizona The importance of the fig as a fruit crop in Arizona is shown by its presence in nearly all localities in which it will endure the winters and survive the frosts of spring. In addition to being a valuable fruit it serves as an excellent shade tree. The fig is a food fruit. Containing an average of more than 50 per cent sugar and 3.5'per cent protein, it is probably the most valuable of all dried food fruits, of which the fig, apple, peach, raisin, and date are the most common. The dried fig has a mildly laxative action and is not injurious when eaten in large quantities. At the close of a study pursued during two consecutive years, the writer was impressed with the following facts: (a) A proper selection of varieties will make fig culture possible in a wide range of climatic, water, and soil conditions such as cover a large propor tion of the agricultural area of the State. (b) Where limiting factors of production are almost nil and commercial production is possible, economic methods are not practiced in the growing or the distribution of the fruit on local and distant markets. (6) Few people appreciate the food value of the fruit and its many possible uses in either a fresh or a preserved condition.
