HE GREENINGS have been thorough workmen, deep students of the 
secrets of Nature. No task was too great, no time too long to dis- 
courage the Greening thirst for improvement in methods of propagation, 
development of superior varieties of fruits and improvement of old. The 
outcome has been the reward of the succeeding generation, if not the 
originator of the experiments launched. The experiments that succeeded 
have been developed under close observation on Greening soil. 
Through these years of effort Greenings have enjoyed full cooperation 
of the United States Department of Agriculture, agricultural colleges, 
orchardists, recognized experiment stations and individual horticulturists 
ee more or less in the interests of pure science. 
The Greenings worked always toward practical improvement in fruits,

“Rud Selection” 
Nearly a third of a century ago the Greenings pioneered 
an undertaking that has proved so successful it has utterly 
revolutionized fruit growing and spread its beneficial 
influences into other branches of horticulture. 
That experiment was “Bud Selection” a subject to which 
the following two pages are devoted in an explanation 
of the method and a clear statement of facts 
that should be a revelation to all who have not 
gone into the subject in a scientific way.
