Synopsis
Excerpt from The Encyclopedia of Practical Horticulture, Vol. 1: A Reference System of Commercial Horticulture, Covering the Practical and Scientific Phases of Horticulture, With Special Reference to Fruits and Vegetables
First - We are living in the midst of one of the best fruit districts of the world and have learned from practical experience what the fruit grower needs. We have worked in the orchards and studied the varied conditions from the viewpoint of the practical fruit grower.
Second - Our fruits, especially our apples, command the highest prices in the markets of the world. This fact is not dependent alone upon the physical conditions under which our fruits are produced, but also upon the methods applied in growing them and preparing them for the market.
