Description:Excerpt from Agriculture of Maine: Second Annual Report of the Commissioner of Agriculture of the State of Maine, 1903While the apple cr0p throughout the Stat-e hardly reached an average, the yield in many sections was much greater than in former years, and a larger income will be derived from the apple cr0p of 1903 than was anticipated by the most sanguine apple producers. We believe a careful estimate of the apples exported would not fall short of one million barrels. This cr0p has been receiving more attention than formerly. The orchard acreage has been largely increased during the past year, and fruit grow ers are giving their trees better care. An increased per cent of the orchards are under cultivation. The farmers have found that it is quite as profitable to fertilize and spray the orchard as any of their hoed crops. For the increased interest in apple cul ture great credit is due the Maine Pomological Society, which has spared no pains and used every effort to impress the fruit growers with the great financial importance of this crop. At their annual exhibition at Auburn, the fine display of fruit would have been a credit to any state in this Union. Their report is embraced in this volume, and it should be carefully read by every fruit grower in the land.Wherever the soil is suited to this industry, and the farmer can give it his attention, it is certainly a good investment to convert these Maine hillside fields and pastures into orchards, planting the best varieties of standard winter fruit.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
