At first mushrooms were grown as a side line to market gardening, but as the market devel oped specialization began.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Student's Hand-Book of Mushrooms of America: Edible and Poisonous Fruit, consisting of sporidia, mostly definite, contained in asci, springing from a naked or enclosed stratum of fructifying cells, and forming a hymenium. - Cooke and Berkeley. Prof. J. de Seyne states that the three elements which form the hymenium in the families Hymenomycetes and Gasteromycetes are (1) the normal basidium, that is, the fruitful club-shaped cell which supports the naked spores, (2) the cystidium or sterile cell, an aborted or atrophied basidium, and (3) the paraphyses, hypertrophied basidium, the one organ, the basidium, being the basis of it all, according as it experiences an arrest of development, as it grows and fructifies, or as it becomes hypertrophied. In the family Ascomycetes a minute ascus or spore case envelops the sporidia, and takes the place of the basidium, and the hymenium consist of (1) the asci containing the sporidia, (2) the paraphyses, and (3) a colorless or yellowish mucilage which envelops the paraphyses and asci. The asci are present in all species. In some species, however, the paraphyses are rare, and the mucilaginous substance is entirely wanting. The asci differ in shape and size, according to the species. The paraphyses, when present, are at first very short, but they rapidly elongate, and are wholly developed before the appearance of the asci. They are linear, simple or branched according to the species of plant, usually containing oily granules. There is some difference of opinion among mycologists as to the special functions of the paraphyses, some considering them as abortive asci, and others, like Boudier, as excitatory organs for the dehiscence of the asci, by which the spores are liberated. The family Ascomycetes is rich in genera and species. It consist largely of microscopic fungi, however, and the only group which will be considered here is that which includes plants of the mushroom family which are edible and indigenous to this country, viz., the sub-family Discomycetes. Discomycetes. The name Discomycetes, "disk-like fungi," does not give an accurate idea of the distinguishing characteristics of the sub-family, the discoid form only belonging to the plants of one of its groups. In the Discomyceteae the hymenium is superior, that is, disposed upon the upper or exterior surface of the mushroom cap. The sporidia are produced in membraneous asci, usually four or eight, or some multiple of that number, in each ascus; Cooke says "rarely four, most commonly eight." The sporidia are usually hyaline, transparent; colored sporidia are rare. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Michigan Mushrooms: A Few of the Common Edible Fungi Occurring in the State The abundance and variety of fleshy fungi found growing in dooryards, fields and woods at certain seasons of the year have doubtless attracted the attention of many persons in this State. These plants are especially numerous during the spring and autumn months and whenever there is a plentiful rainfall during the summer. However, they are usually passed by and left for the worms or scattered with a kick. Thus a free offering frequently near our very door-step may be neglected or spurned while the same product is being imported from foreign lands and sold for a high price in the markets. Naturally the question arises why pay fifty cents to one dollar a pound for mushrooms from France or for hot house grown material when a generous supply of the same, or of equally desirable species, is going to waste about us? There are many persons in our State who would be glad to eat our native mushrooms were it not for fear of poisoning. That this fear is well founded is shown by the fact that many cases of severe illness and even loss of life are annually recorded through carelessness in the indis criminate eating of fungi. Moreover the prevailing ignorance and superstition regarding these plants have added to the uncertainty which seemed to attend their use as food. And while this fear has often served a useful purpose in restrain ing many persons from carelessness in the eating of mushrooms, it has also prevented them from making use of a highly esteemed natural food product, obtainable often without expense other than the effort necessary to gather it.

This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mushrooms and Other Common Fungi To judge from the statements of early authors, for many centuries Wild mushrooms have been eagerly collected and eaten, especially in Germany, France, and Italy. Perhaps the only recorded voice of absolute protest came from the' ancient Hindus, Who considered those Who ate mushrooms, Whether springing from the ground or growing on a tree, fully equal in guilt to the slayers of Brahmins. Although early history records the use of mushrooms and the high esteem in Which they Were held by the ancients, it is true that their nutritive value has been greatly exaggerated and is not high and that they are not as life sustaining as meat, in spite of the frequent assertions of enthusiastic mycophagists to the contrary.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies of American Fungi Mushrooms: Edible, Poisonous, Etc Value of Form and Characters - The different kinds of mushrooms vary in form. Some are quite strikingly different from others, so that no one would have difficulty in recognizing the difference in shape. For example, an umbrella-shaped mushroom like the one shown in Fig. I or 81 is easily distinguished from a shelving one like that in Fig. 9 or 188. But in many cases different species vary only slightly in form, so that it becomes a more or less difficult matter to distinguish them. In those plants (for the mushroom is a plant) where the different kinds are nearly alike in form, there are other characters than mere general form which enable one to tell them apart. These, it is true, require close observation on our part, as well as some experience in judging of the value of such characters the same habit of observa tion and discrimination we apply to everyday affairs and to all departments of knowledge. But so few people give their attention to the discrimination of these plants that few know the value of their characters, or can even recognize them.

This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mushrooms of America, Edible and Poisonous by Julius A. (Julius Auboineau) Palmer These charts are prepared for popular use, rather than for students of botanical science; all technical terms are, therefore, as far as possible, avoided. The names "mushroom" and "toadstool" are indefinite, are both applied with equal reason to any fleshy fungus, and are here used as synonymes, like the corresponding term "plant" and "vegetable," or "shrub" and "bush," in common conversation. No general test can be given by which a poisonous mushroom may be distinguished from an edible mushroom. But each species of fungus has certain marks of identity, either in appearance, quality, or condition of growth, which are its own, and never radically varied; none can contain a venomous element at one time, and yet be harmless under other conditions. Like other food, animal or vegetable, however, mushrooms may, by decay or conditions of growth, be unfit for table use; yet in this state no fatality would attend such use. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Minnesota Mushrooms The present booklet is the fourth of a series of popular guides to the plants of Minnesota, designed for plant-lovers and for classes in botany in high school and college. An equally important object Of the guide to mushrooms is to make available with safety the enormous annual crop of mushrooms, which is now almost entirely wasted through fear or neglect. It is perhaps idle to estimate the size or value of this crop, but if that part which is readily accessible is alone considered, the number of pounds will reach into the hundred thousands. Figured on the market price of the cultivated mushroom, the total value of the mushroom crop of the State can hardly be less than a million dollars. Just what would be the effect Of utilizing this food supply is a matter of conjecture, but there can be little doubt that it would prove fortunate from the standpoint of dietetics as well as Of economics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Edible and Poisonous Mushrooms: A Descriptive Handbook to Accompany the Author's Colored Chart of Edible and Poisonous Mushrooms The popular and widespread interest in mushrooms of all kinds is almost phenomenal. This is due to their beauty of form and color and the supposed mystery surrounding their origin and growth, as well as to the use of certain kinds for food. Their nutritive value is not great, being about equal to that of cabbage, but they afford variety in flavor and add greatly to the relish for other foods. Mushroom eating is much more common in Europe than in this country. The struggle for existence is greater there, and the edible and poisonous varieties are better known by all classes of people. In China, it is almost impossible for a botanist to get specimens on account of the thorough manner in which all wild food is collected by the natives. The use of mushrooms in this country is as yet very limited, being confined chiefly to our foreign-born population. Even in New York City, many excellent kinds go to waste every season because they are different from kinds known in Europe.
