From'lhis book we learn that
the fruit crop of Oregon for the
year 1004 of the value of $2,413,
500. The . book . gives a most
interesting history of the f rait
industry in Oregon from 1817 to
the present time and much
practical information about
planting, cultivating, pruning,
spraying, gathering and mar
keting. It tells much about
insects, pests and how to get rid
"of them.
The article on Plant Physi o
logy, or how plants grow, should
be read by very farmer, fruit
grower, gardner aud student1 as
it will enable them' to intelli

stalk amid natu re's annual re
curring miracle.
