Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Citrus Culture in Hawaii Many growers have successfully ripened citrus fruit with out infestation by bagging it. In a study of the best methods Of protecting the fruit, the station used medium-weight brown paper bags, and medium-weight cellophane bags to cover grape fruit, oranges, mandarins, and limes. Four-pound bags were used for grapefruit, three-pound bags for oranges, and two pound bags for mandarins and for limes. The bags were put on when the fruit was still green and nearly full grown. The bag was placed about the fruit and tied tightly enough to prevent the entry of water in case of rain; A workman can place 50 to 150 bags per hour, depending on the convenience of reaching the fruit. No foliage Should be bagged with the fruit. Although much rain fell during November and December, 1931, most of the bags were in good condition for from 30 to 50 days, when the fruit was picked. When the fruit ripened - those in the cello phane bags had deeper yellow coloring and possibly better flavor than the fruits in the paper bags.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Citrus Fruits in Hawaii Oranges, lemons, limes, and pomelos have all found a congenial home in Hawaii. Indeed, the orange is sometimes thought of by the casual Observer as being indigenous, so eminently suitable have the soil and climate proved to be. When properly cared for and fertilized some Of the native orange trees produce fruits unexcelled in point Of flavor and juiciness, bearing little resemblance to the very indifferent specimens Often found in the markets, which have been picked green, dumped into casks without curing, and sent into the market. These facts are in striking contrast with the statistics, showing that between and worth Of citrus fruits were imported into Honolulu alone in the year ended January 27, 1905. Considerable quantities have also arrived at the ports Of Hilo and Mahukona direct from San Francisco. These circumstances have seemed to make it desirable to give a statement Of common practices in citrus culture, with special reference to their application to Hawaiian conditions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mango Culture in Hawaii The mango is indigenous to a large tropical area Of southern Asia. In parts Of that continent it is believed to have been in cultivation for over years. Its prominence in Hindu mythology and religious Observance is said to leave no doubt as to its antiquity. Few other fruits have the historical background of the mango or seem to have been so closely associated with the folklore and religious ceremonies Of a great race Of people. From southern Asia the species spread to practically all the tropi cal world. The tree is adapted to the great range of conditions under which it is now found growing, and the fruit occupies a conspicuous place in the dietary Of millions Of people in the Tropics. Early Spanish and Portuguese explorers and traders introduced the mango into various parts Of the tropical world. Spanish traders are thought to have carried the mango from the Philippine Islands to the west coast Of Mexico long before the discovery Of the Hawaiian Islands by Englishmen in 1778. The Portuguese are also known to have brought this valuable fruit to the western world. It was planted in Brazil by them at an uncertain date, presumably in the early part of the eighteenth century. The mango evidently met with much favor, and under the climatic and fertile soil conditions of the New World it grew in great profusion. In 50 years it spread widely to a number of places and was grown particularly in the vicinity Of Rio de J aneiro. It was carried from there to the West Indies and reached Barbados, whence it spread to most Of the other islands Of the great archipelago. In 32 years after the mango tree was introduced into Jamaica it was said to be commonly found in that island.

We might have gone thoroughly into the history of citrus culture, especially in our State, but the beginner or novice, for whom this is principally intended, usually cares little for that; we might have discussed varieties at length, but this would be confusing and not in accord with our purpose, and so we have considered this subject only so far as it is immediately practical.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from 1903-'04, San Dimas Citrus Nurseries The destination of this shipment of California-grown Washing ton Navel orange trees is suggestive. For instanee, Sicily has a population of about and among her exports the orange and the lemon represent an annual value of the town of Messina has a population of some and exports citrus fruits to the value of and the essence of or ange, lemon, and Bergamot in the sum of Naples has half a million population, and exports worth of fruit; Sicilia, Which is the largest island in the Mediterranean, grows much fruit'in the warm and sheltered sections. Think of California Washington Navel trees nodding to the breeze in the presence of Mt. Etna, or casting their fragrance on the summer air on the historic ground where N ero fiddled and saw Rome burn, and Where Hannibal exercised his prowess as a warrior in the Punic wars. The exports of citrus fruits from Italy also afford a study in supply and demand. From them it can clearly be seen that citrus culture in this country is far from being overdone; quite to the contrary, it is only in the formative period. But to consider that California, the youngest citrus-producing country, should be ex porting citrus trees to the oldest, is certainly a compliment to our advanced methods. We believe that Mr. Teague can justly be considered the pioneer in this sort of enterprise, as he has re cently filled orders for South Africa, Australia, and other equally distant points. This not only affords a solace to our pride as a horticultural people, but gives strength to the conviction that our advantages are unequalled. - [from The Pomona Times.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pineapple in Hawaii Pineapple growing is a new industry in Hawaii. It is only a few years ago that its foundations were laid, and less than a decade since any rapid development began. As is often the case with new enterprises, it was the subject of scorn and ridi cule, and land which now smiles with its golden harvest of fruit was said to be useless for any purpose except the grazing of a few cattle. The industry is now well established, and although there are many unsolved problems connected With the growing and marketing of the crop, the experimental stage is well past and the attention of homesteaders and capitalists is being at tracted to this new field. With the recent Opening of Govern ment lands in various parts of the pineapple belt for homestead ing, has come a demand for information relative to methods of growing pineapples in Hawaii. This station has published sev eral bulletins dealing with special phases of the subject, suchas the management of pineapple soils,1 the manganese problem,2 the pineapple scale,3 and the marketing of the fresh fruit on the mainland,4 but no publication covering the field in general has been issued. This paper is presented as an attempt to bring together in a simple way the results of experience on the more important aspects of pineapple cultivation in Hawaii, but While general in its scope it makes no attempt at an exhaustive treat ment.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Culture of Citrus Fruits Under the Climatic and Geographical Conditions Pertaining to the Murray Valley During the expansion of the citrus industry that has within recent years taken place along the Murray Valley the absence of any book of a general nature dealing with the culture of citrus fruits under local conditions has often been a considerable handicap to new growers in the laying out and management of their plantations.

A considerable portion of the subject matter contained in the following pages has been taken from the author's previous works - from a pamphlet entitled Orange Culture, published in 1914, and from Fruitgrowing under Irrigation, published in 1918.
