    THE STRAWBERRY 4 THE RASPBERRY 11 THE BLACKBERRY 14 THE GRAPE 16 CANNING FRUIT 23 GENERAL REMARKS 28 PRICE LIST 32

    Fruit is the most natural and healthful food for man. It was God’s plan that he should subsist largely upon fruit. See Genesis 1.SFCC 3.1

    With the discarding of flesh-meats as food by Health Reformers, has come a need of something to take its place. We know of nothing so eminently adapted to supply this need as fruit. With the extended call for small fruits in the past few years has arisen a demand for practical information upon the manner of their growth. The object of this little work is not to go into the subject for the benefit of the green-house, or the professional cultivator, but to meet the wants of every family. Every one who owns a rod of ground, whether in city or country, should know how to cultivate small fruits. Hence we have ventured to give practical hints in regard to the cultivation of the Strawberry, Raspberry, Blackberry, and Grape, studiously avoiding intricacies, or anything that would not be beneficial for the people to carry out.SFCC 3.2

    That our efforts may be appreciated, and that they may result in a more thorough introduction and better understanding of the cultivation of small fruits by health Reformers, is the wish of the writer.SFCC 3.3
