First Eighth Biennial Report Of The Commissioner Of Horticulture Of The State Of California For 1903 1904 1917 1918 PDF Download

Excerpt from Third Biennial Report of the Commissioner of Horticulture of the State of California: For 1907-1908 The crop of wine grapes was below the average, with prices ranging from fair to poor. The berry crop (blackberries, loganberries, and raspberries) was good, as it always is, but prices were the lowest they have been for years, prob ably due to so much other canning products. Strawberries are evidently suffering from a foreign invasion, and when the Japanese have gained full control we may expect the same results that have marked their domination of the potato industry. Our citrus shipments were not in excess of last year, and the prices did not average quite as high, but it would be unfair to judge any year's crop by such a successful season as 1907, both as to quantity and price. The season of 1908 was certainly all that could be desired from the standpoint of a citrus grower. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
