Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fig Tree Young Harry did not feel he could do much about stopping people destroying themselves in war, but their other possible fate deeply engaged his thoughts. By the time he was fourteen he had decided that when he grew up he would save humanity. Thus when other boys of his age dreamed of being Olympic champions or unbeatable boxers, Harry dreamed of grateful nations unveiling statues to himself as their saviour. To be a saviour he had, of course, to be a scientist, and this he made up his mind to be. From that time onward, he allowed nothing to get in the way of his ambition. He gave up going to chapel, because he noted that scientists had little use for religion; he gave up the Boy Scouts, because they were too cheerful for his serious frame of mind; and he gave up football, which he enjoyed, because it took up too much of his time. On his sixteenth birthday, his headmaster called him to his study, and asked him in a paternal way if he had given any thought as to what he wanted to do in life. Harry said, in his serious treble.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Little Fig-Tree Stories There is a garden on a hill slope between the snows of the Sierra Nevada and the warm, rich valleys of the coast. It is in that region of Northern California where the pine belt and the fruit belt interlace. Both pine and fruit trees grow in that mountain garden, and there, in the new moon Of February, six young Alm ond trees burst into ower. The Peach and Plum trees in the upper gar den felt a glow Of sympathy with their forward sisters of the south, but the matronly Cherry trees shook their heads at such an untimely show Of blossoms. They foresaw the trouble to come. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fig: Its History, Culture, and Curing, With a Descriptive Catalogue of the Known Varieties of Figs Sir: I have the honor to transmit herewith, and to recommend for publication as a bulletin of this division, the manuscript of an article on The Fig: Its History, Culture, and Curing, with a descriptive catalogue of the known varieties of figs, prepared by Dr. Gustav Eisen, of San Francisco, Cal. Dr. Eisen is too well known as an author of high standing to need any introduction to the horticultural world. His name carries with it a guaranty of the value of this, his latest work. The recent successful introduction of the blastophaga into the fig-growing sections of the United States by the Department of Agriculture almost certainly assures the production of first-class Smyrna figs, which will doubtless greatly encourage and stimulate the industry, and thereby create an increase in the demand for reliable literature on the subject. This comprehensive treatise contains information of value to the scientific and practical fruit grower never before published in the form in which it is here presented.

Download or read book Fig Culture in California Classic Reprint written by Ira J. Condit and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fig Culture in California Commercial fig orchards appear to have been established in the coast counties, and even in the Sacramento Valley and the Sierra Foothills, earlier than in the San J oaquin Valley. In 1876 there were trees in Yolo County, in Tuolumne, and only 685 in Fresno County. An orchard of 27 acres of White Adriatic fig trees was planted at Fresno about 1885, the first carload of dried white figs being sent east in 1889. The White Adriatic was the most widely planted variety during the two decades following 1885 but the dried product lacked the tender ness of skin and the flavor of the imported fig from Smyrna. The Year book of the United States Department of Agriculture for 1897 stated that the White Adriatic has many points of merit, but the fact that its quality when dried is inferior to that of the imported dried fruit from Smyrna has resulted in several efforts to introduce and grow the Smyrna type of fig.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Caprifigs and Caprification While engaged in the nursery business at Corning, W. H. Samson propagated fig trees extensively with cuttings obtained from the Stanford Ranch. Since the trees were growing mostly in a row along an irrigation ditch, Mr. Samson numbered the trees from which cuttings were taken as 1, 3, 5, and 21, according to their position in the row. Nursery trees were sold and shipped under these numbers to fig growers throughout the state, although orchards from this source are now most common at Merced and Corning.

(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.

Download or read book California Fig Industry written by B. M. Lelong and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from California Fig Industry: With a Chapter on Fig Caprification; Written for the Annual Report of the California State Board of Agriculture for 1891 In Tripoli fig trees grow on the plains as well as on the mountains; the more they are exposed to the sun the better they prosper. They are found in rolling and level land, both of which are adapted to their growth. It is customary in this country to plant fig trees in either white clayey soil or in a blackish soil - the latter not being good for other kinds of trees. In France the fig grows in an almost wild state in many places. On many an old wall small fig trees are to be seen, and on many a road bank they are the trees most frequently to be seen. In country farm yards, innkeepers' gardens, and stable-yards the fig tree is invariably present, and very often as a solitary specimen. It would be difficult to find a garden of any description in southern France without a fig tree. In Italy many varieties are cultivated. Usually the fig is planted in company with other fruit trees - the olive, almond, and others - but fig orchards where figs alone are grown may be found at Lecce and other places, and in such cases the trees must be planted at such a distance apart that when they reach their fullest development they may not come in contact with each other. In many places it is the custom to alternate the fig, almond, and olive, so that each fig tree may be iso lated. The introduction of the fig into Italy antedates authentic history, and is lost in the misty depths of tradition. Pliny refers to a tree which existed long anterior to the founding of Rome, under which the people of that city were wont to assemble to discuss the topics of the day' years thereafter. Tradition claims this tree to have been that under which Remus and Romulus were found, and in commemoration thereof it was preserved.
