Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Vegetable Crops
In the preparation of this book the author has had one main purpose; namely to meet the needs of college and university teachers Of vegetable gardening for a textbook which brings together the results of experimental and research work. While vegetable gardening has been given less attention by scientific workers than most other important branches of agriculture, there is a large amount Of experimental evidence available that has never been brought together. This material has not been used by vegetable gardening teachers to the extent that it should, largely because it is so scattered through the literature of the past forty years. The author has studied the literature and has attempted to give the experimental evidence available on the subjects discussed. On many subjects discussed no experimental evidence was found, and in these cases, the author has given what he believes to be the best information available.
