j.y o«/ 



paring one year with the other the num- 

 ber of trees or vines of bearing age is on 

 the whole a better index of the general 

 changes or tendencies than the quantity 

 of product, but the data for the censuses 

 of 1910 and 1900 are not closely com- 

 parable, and the product is therefore 

 compared, although variations may be 

 due largely to temporarily favorable or 

 unfavorable climatic conditions. 



The total quantity of orchard fruits 

 produced in 1909 was 6,485,000 bushels, 

 valued at $3,459,000. Apples contributed 

 nearly three-fourths of this quantity, 

 peaches and nectarines most of the re- 

 mainder. The production of grapes in 

 1909 amounted to 1,979,480 pounds, val- 

 ued at $85,423; that of nuts to 783,570 

 pounds, valued at $14,041, and tropi- 



cal fruits produced in 1909 were valued 

 at $4,127. 



The production of all orchard fruits 

 together in 1909 was 15.8 per cent more 

 than that in 1899, while the production 

 of grapes decreased decidedly. The 

 value of orchard fruits increased from 

 $1,480,000 in 1899 to $3,459,000 in 1909, 

 and that of grapes decreased from 

 $120,199 in 1899 to $85,423 in 1909. It 

 should be noted in this connection that 

 the values for 1899 include the value of 

 more advanced products derived from or- 

 chard fruits or grapes, such as cider, 

 vinegar, dried fruits and the like, and 

 may therefore involve some duplication, 

 while the values shown for 1909 relate 

 only to the products in their original 

 condition.
