10 FRUIT FARMING 



by my firm is considered one of the best and most 

 reliable.* 



When planters begin to see results, they should 

 avoid hastily heading down for re-grafting, or changing 

 sorts too often ; having done their best, they should 

 not make alterations on the basis of one or two years' 

 crops, but wait with faith and patience, gaining 

 experience over a series of years before destroying 

 any kind on a chance of bettering their selection. 



The secret of success in fruit growing may be 

 summed up in a very few words : " Grow few sorts ; 

 keep the trees well pruned, and thin the boughs ; 

 manure freely and intelligently ; and pack carefully." 

 These four axioms thoroughly carried out will in a 

 year or two more than double proceeds from Fruit 

 growing carried on in a slovenly manner.
