This book was released on 2017-05-21 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Trees That Grow the Fruit That Sells Some propagators use the wood pruned from nursery stock to get their supply of buds. Others cut buds from bearing orchards, but make no selection of the trees which bear the most fruit. It has been pretty thor oughly demonstrated that when young trees are propagated by buds or grafts, they have the same bearing characteristics as the tree from which the budding or grafting wood was cut. If this tree is a regular bearer of heavy cr0ps. Of fine fruit, the young trees in all probability will be the same. If this tree is a shy bearer, or produces inferior fruit, the young trees have very little chance of ever becoming profitable orchard units. You can notice it in your own orchard and neighborhood - one Baldwin or York Imperial tree will bear twice as many apples as another standing alongside it, and better Apples, too. This condition applies as well to Peaches and' Pears and other fruits. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fruit of the Tree He was a helpless kind of man; even the younger children could see that. How he made so prosperous a living none of his acquaintances could understand. Those who were in the ivory trade with him knew that he owed his good in come to a rare capacity for judging tusks by touch. It was a gift, inherited, as he believed, from his father, but more probably communi cated by imperceptible training while they were in business together. As the family grew, so did his business, and this was fortunate, for Mims had no money nor had he any private fortune. The men who travelled up and down with him every morning and evening between Ellerslie and the city used to tell each other that they ought to offer him sympathy rather than congratulations as each new baby arrived. Yet they could not see that his responsibilities made any mark upon him. He regarded children in exactly the same way as he regarded the weather; both came as it pleased some Superior Power; he had no control over either.

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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evans Specialty Nursery, Arlington, Texas: Special Nut and Fruit Trees, 1922-23 We will not go so fan as to say that we have the best Elberta in the world; but we do say that our trees are grown from buds of the most superior tree of _the variety we have ever seen or heard of - and it is not a sufficient answer to an inquiring mind to say that this particular tree produced superior fruit because of richer soil or otherwise more favorable location; for it stood in a ten-acre orchard where conditions were as nearly alike as possible and no other tree in the orchard produced such fruit. You may be able to buy trees for less money than we will be able to sell you these selected and specially grown ones for, but the best tree is cheapest in the end. Margaret evans. F, Immediately following Elberta (our own introduction.) An Elberta cross that resembles that variety when ripe, but not so While green. Oblong, and more pointed at the apex. Flesh yellow, juicy, and deliciously sweet, by far surpassing the Elberta in quality. Too soft for a good shipping peach, but for home use, to be eaten out of hand, can not be surpassed.

This book was released on 2018-11-21 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stahelin's "Vitality" Fruit Plants and Trees, 1931 We feel that a little word of explanation is due here. Being located in one of the northern states of the U. S., we can and do produce a full line of nursery stock that is hardy. Now, everyone knows that you cannot take corn from the South and bring it North and get a crop from it. First, it is not hardy; second, it requires too long a growing season. The same reasoning applies to plants, trees or other nursery stock. Our location in Michigan and our close proximity to the lake, which tempers our Winters, is one of our biggest assets. We can ship early, usually the latter part of March and our climate is such that our nursery stock is practically dormant and has no green leaves by May lst. Customers receiving our straw berry plants should remember this. When your strawberries are green and full of blossoms, Stahelin's plants are still dormant, hardly any green foliage showing. They will stand shipment for thousands of miles and arrive in perfect condition. All this is due to our location, our expert method of growing, which helps to make a hardy, enormous producing strain of plants and trees.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Grow Fruit Take the fruit trees away from the home place, town or country, and a great part of its attractiveness leaves it. This applies both to the points of beauty and usefulness - but the trees must be properly selected, planted right and well cared for. These - matters have not had enough attention in the past. Nowadays, however, people are coming to understand that orchards will not take care of themselves any more than will vegetable gardens. Varieties, and methods of culture as well, have been steadily improved. Then, too, people are using fruit in greater quantity, year by year, and are naturally led to ask themselves why should we buy what can just as well be raised at home?

Download or read book Fruit Trees Roses Shrubs Etc and How to Grow Them Classic Reprint written by Westminster Nursery and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fruit Trees, Roses, Shrubs, Etc. And How to Grow Them For fruit trees the soil should be dry, either natural or made so by thorough drainage, as they will not live or thrive on a soil constantly saturated with stagnant moisture. It should also be well prepared by twiceplowing, at least, beforehand, using the subsoil plow after the common one at the second plowing. On new fresh lands manuring will be unnecessary, but on lands exhausted by cropping, fertilizers must be applied, either by turning in heavy crops of clover or well decomposed manure or compost. To insure a good growth of fruit trees, land should be in as good condition as for a crop of wheat, corn, or potatoes. If you want trees to grow well, be vigorous and strong, you must give them plenty of food and good cultiva tion until August lst, when all cultivation should cease, to allow new wood to thoroughly ripen up before cold weather, which it will not do if kept growing by cultivation after that date. In regard to this important operation, there are more fatal errors committed than in any other. As a general thing, trees are planted in the ground precisely as they are sent from the nursery. In removing a tree, Figs. 1 and 3 show trees as they come from the nursery. Figs. 2 and 4 show the same trees propno matter how carefully it may be done, a portion of the roots are broken and destroyed, and consequently the bal ance that existed in the structure of the tree is deranged. This must be restored by a proper pruning, adapted to the size, form, and condition of the tree, as follows: Standard Orchard Trees. - These, as sent from the nursery, vary from five to seven feet in height, with naked stems or trunks, and a number of branches at the top forming a head. These branches should all be cut back to within three or four buds of their base. This lessens the demand upon the roots, and enables the remaining buds to push with vigor. Cut Off smoothly all bruised or broken roots up to the sound wood. In case of older trees, of extra size, the pruning must be in proportion; as a general thing it will be safe to shorten all the previous year's shoots to three or four buds at their base, and where the branches are very numerous some may be cut out entirely.
