Download or read book The Grapes of New York (Classic Reprint) written by Ulysses Prentiss Hedrick and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-19 with total page 790 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Grapes of New York Flora, in the Evolution of our Native Fruits. And in the Cyclopedia of American Horticulture, was adopted. The Grapes of New York makes its chief contribution to the pomology Of the country in the description of varieties. The authors have tried to study varieties from every point of view, not alone nor chiefly, it must be said, with regard to their cultural value; for most of the varieties pass out Of cultivation and such information would be worthless within a few years at most. But, rather, the effort has been to determine what elementary or unit characters the grape possesses as shown in its botanical and horti cultural groups. The Twentieth Century begins with the unanimous judg ment Of scientists that the characters of plants are independent entities which are thrown into various relationships with each other in individuals and groups of individuals. This conception of unit characters lies at the foundation Of plant improvement. We are but beginning the breeding of American grapes and it has seemed to the writer that the most important part of this undertaking is to discover and record as far as possible these unit characters of grapes, thereby aiding to furnish a foundation for grape breeding. The great problem Of plant-breeding in the future will be to correlate the characters known to exist in the plant being improved; we must know what these are before we begin to combine and rearrange them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Grape Culture and Wine-Making in California: A Practical Manual for the Grape Grower and Wine Maker A book, specially devoted to "Grape Culture and Wine Making in California," would seem to need no apology for its appearance, however much the author may do so for undertaking the task. California seems to him, at least, as "the chosen land of the Lord," the great Vineland; and the industry, now only in its first stages of development, destined to overshadow all others. It has already assumed dimensions, within the short period of its existence, hardly forty years, that our European brethren can not believe it, and a smile of incredulity comes to their lips when we speak of vineyards of several thousand acres, with a product of millions of gallons per annum. But, while fully cognizant of the importance of these large enterprises, it is not for their owners that this little volume is written specially. The millionaire who is able to plant and maintain a vineyard of several thousand acres, can and should provide the best and most scientific skill to manage his vineyard and his cellars; it will be the wisest and most economical course for him, he can afford to pay high salaries, and the most costly wineries, provided they are also practical, would be a good investment for him. We have thousands, perhaps the large majority of our wine growers, however, who are comparatively poor men, many of whom have to plant their vineyards, nay, even clear the land for them with their own hands, make their first wine in a wooden shanty with a rough lever press, and work their way up by slow degrees to that competence which they hope to gain by the sweat of their brow.

Download or read book Manual of American Grape-Growing (Classic Reprint) written by U. P. Hedrick and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-18 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual of American Grape-Growing Seventy-nine books on grapes enrich the pomology of North America, not counting numerous state and national publications. Pomological writers in America have been partial to the grape, for other fruits do not fare nearly so well. Twenty - two books are devoted to the strawberry, fourteen to the apple, to the peach nine, cranberry eight, plum five, pear nine, quince two, logan'berry one, while the cherry, raspberry, and blackberry are not once separated from other fruits in special books. Thus, though a comparative newcomer among the fruits of the country, the grape has been singled out for a treatise more times than all other fruits of temperate climates combined seventy-nine books on the grape, seventy on all other fruits. This statement of partiality does not lead to an apology for a new book on the grape. There is urgent need for a new book. But three of the seventy-nine treatises on this fruit are con temporary, and all but one, a handbook on training, are records from vanished minds. Methods change so rapidly and varieties multiply so fast, that to keep pace there must be new books on fruits every few years. Besides, the types of grapes are so diverse, and different soils, climates, and treatments produce such widely dissimilar results, that many books are required to do justice to this fruit the vineyard should be seen through many eyes.

Book Synopsis Grapes by : George Washington McCluer
Download or read book Grapes written by George Washington McCluer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Grapes: Test of Varieties The results now obtained cannot be relied on wit/z certainty even for the vineyard in which the varieties have been grown, and must be less trustworthy for other places. As an illustration of what is meant, the behavior of some of the varieties of which several vines were planted may be noted. Until. The present season, all of the Concords have seemed in as good health as is usual with that variety. This season the leaves on one of the vines began to die about the latter part of July, and by the time the fruit should have been ripe nearly all the leaves were more or less affected, and at least one-third of them had fallen off. As a result of the diseased condition of the leaves, the fruit was very much later in ripening (at least a week or ten days), and it never attained either the size or richness in quality of the fruit on vines in perfect health. The vines also, necessarily, made less growth and ripened their wood less perfectly than those that had healthy foliage. The only difference between the treatment of the vine that was diseased and of those that remained healthy was in the method of training, and this was so slight, that it probably had no effect. Soil and culture were exactly the same, so far as one could judge by observation. There are eight vines of Delaware growing in the same vineyard. In the season of 1892 one of them shed its leaves early from disease, and the fruit, as a consequence, failed to ripen. Although it was left until the fruit was all gone from the healthy vines, the fruit on this one was still green and sour. This year (1893) the Vine that was diseased last year seemed to be in good health, While another one a short distance away shed its leaves prematurely and so failed to ripen its fruit properly. The method of training the two Delaware vines is somewhat different, though both are on a trellis. The behavior of Moore's early has not been the same for all the plants. Some of them shed their leaves so badly as to fail entirely to ripen the fruit while on others that held their foliage as they should the fruit ripened well.

This book was released on 2016-10-19 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Foundations of American Grape Culture In the fall of 1873, the writer visited the vineyards of Dr. Robert Peter, residing near Lexington, Kentucky. In these vineyards were all the leading and nearly all the then introduced varieties of American grapes. The vines were bearing generally, and the fruit on nearly all was ripe or ripening. The Doctor, having been my instructor in Chemistry in Kentucky State Agricultural College, in which I had completed the scientific course in 1870, discoursed freely upon the character of vine and fruit of the varieties. It seemed to me that there might be numerous combinations, which would naturally occur in such a vineyard, and that one could expect some of the seedlings grown from such crossed seeds to turn out better than any in the vineyard, by combination of excellencies of both parents in the crossed. This re ection aroused within me a strong desire to test the matter. The Doctor gave me clusters of all wished, some thirty or forty kinds. The seeds of these were carefully saved, separately labeled, and noted as to varieties standing near the vine which bore the seeds. These seeds were planted at my new home in Nebraska, but the season and other conditions being adverse, all were lost, yet the kindled ame of passion for experimentation continued to burn. The timbered belts along the streams of that bleak country were ransacked for the few wild grapes growing there, and the vines bearing the best fruit were marked to be removed to vineyard and later hybridized with larger berried kinds, as the only species there (v. 'vulpina) has small berries, although often quite sweet, and pure-in quality. However, a series of years of adversity - with drouth, intensely hard winters, and grasshoppers, - coming on, further experimentation there in that line was dropped.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Growing American Bunch Grapes American bunch grapes are the only type suitable for growing in most parts of the United States. Other types of grapes - Vinifera (european or Old World grapes) and Muscadine - are more adapted to particular regions. Bunch grapes are an important commercial fruit and also one of the most popular and extensively grown fruits in home plantings. They are easy to grow, bear early and regularly, and are small but long-lived plants. Insects and dis eases are usually easily controlled. The grapes are grown for fresh fruit and for processing (wine, juice, jams, jellies, and frozen products).
