Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Experiments in Orchard Management in New England
With comparatively few exceptions our fruit trees are very indifferently cared for. Considering their commercial impor tance they are one of our great sources of income. If we can get so large returns for so little effort what may be expected when we exert ourselves to do more for plants? An equal amount of capital invested, care, labor and attention given it, the average orchard crop will be productive of greater returns than the same expenditure devoted to live stock in New England. This statement is not made to disparage the live stock industry, but to emphasize what may be expected in orcharding.
