Book Description

Excerpt from Profitable Fruit-Growing for Cottagers and Small Holders of Land Varieties of fruits, notably of the most important - Apples - have been chosen for their usefulness, earliness in bearing, with good appearance and quality of the fruit, rather than for the predominance of some one particular merit esteemed by connoisseurs and, as far as possible, those sorts have been included which have proved the most productive in generally unfruitful years. Slow, shy, and uncertain bearers, no matter how handsome and excellent the fruit, are not the most useful for planting by cottagers and small holders in gardens or fields.
