Culture of Fruits.


DR.. John L. Black read an interesting
paper at a recent meeting of the Horticul-
tural Society of Delaware on the cultu re.
packing aud marketing of fruits. He asked
for the adoption Of a rigid quarantine against
disease and pests and recommended an
united effort of the fruit growers to estab-
lish uniform basis for horticulture He
offered the following resolution
WHEREAS, It is evident to the most casual
observer that the fruit interests of the Della
ware and Chesapeake Peninsula are in a con-
ditiou giving little profit and less encourage
ment to the producers. The course of this
condition being in the opinion of this society
the retention of old methods of cultivation.
packing and marketing, aud the general ne
glect Of the removal and absolute destruction
Ofall diseased trees, parts oftrees and bushes
WHEREAS By an adoption of modern
methods we see bright future for Peninsula
fruit culture aud with large returns to all en-
gagged in he business, and radical advance
in the price Of our Peninsula land. There
fore, be it
Res0lgsd, That the society recommend
the most radical measure be taken to rid
this Peninsula Of all diseased stock, and to
prevent its importation thither; aud we do
most einpudtlcally recommend 70 all grow
ers strict attention to detail in all their bust
ness; that they make a radical change in
marketing, reducing the size Of packages
when necessary; that they use very generally
the California methods and keep out Of the
market, especially in seasons OF plenty, all
products below the better grades that by
marketing no prematures or imperfect fruit
of any Eiud, do what we feel sure will once
more bring the business to a very profitable
and paying basis, and bring happiness and
wealth to our people.
