The Handbook of Horticulture and Viticulture of Western Australia by A. Despeissis Pdf

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1903 edition. Excerpt: ...The mixture is prepared on a floor, or a tarpaulin, by first sifting through a wire screen with in. meshes, and mixing thoroughly with shovels. One-half of this amount applied broadcast is used when giving the last working to land before planting, and the other half sown between the rows during the first season. Just before planting a light dressing of Acwt. of sulphate of ammonia or of nitrate of soda is given along the rows, and also early the second spring, just as the plants are moving from their dormant state, another similar application will stimulate a vigorous growth and an abundant setting. Should an abundance of unleashed wood ashes be procurable it would form an ideal fertiliser, as it contains both potash and phosphate. A dressing of 6.0 to 80 bushels to the acre broadcasted would be a liberal one. Transplanting.--After thorough cultivation and manuring, the land should be made smooth by rolling, which also consolidates it. The time for transplanting having arrived, the plants should be got together. In our climate April will be found a good time; a small crop may then be expected in the spring. Strawberry plauts will strike at any time, provided the ground is moist and warm, but autumn planting is found more profitable. If not planted till the spring, all the fruit buds should be removed as they appear, otherwise the plants become feeble and die. Should a large plot be planted, it is advisable to commence with the early sorts and proceed with the latter varieties. The lines for horse cultivation should be at intervals of 3ft. or 4ft.; for hand cultivation 2ft. will be found enough. Iu either case the distance along the rows should be from 12in. to 18in.; this the grower will regulate as he becomes familiar with the habits of...

The Handbook of Horticulture and Viticulture of Western Australia (Classic Reprint) by A. Despeissis Pdf

Excerpt from The Handbook of Horticulture and Viticulture of Western Australia As it is a physical impossibility for the Viticultural and Horticultural Expert of the Bureau to be in all places at all times, and as the demands for Mr. Despeissis' advice have been so great, the Bureau of Agriculture considered it advisable to have Mr. Despeissis' views on cultural matters embodied in book form. Before commencing the Handbook of Horticulture and Viticulture of Western Australia, which is now presented to the reader, Mr. Despeissis visited all the districts in the South-Western Land Division of the Colony, so "he knows whereof he speaks." Neither the Bureau of Agriculture nor Mr. Despeissis have spared pains or expense to make the Handbook as complete as the somewhat limited time at the authors' disposal would permit. It was hoped that the Handbook would have been issued before the present planting season, but the work insensibly outgrew its originally prescribed limits. The Handbook has been written as much for the new-comer as those already settled upon the soil, and for this reason chapters on the preliminary preparation of the land have been included. Errors, almost inseparable from the somewhat hurried preparation of a book requiring a vast amount of thought and research, may be discovered in these pages, but it is to be hoped they will be immeasurably counterbalanced by the mass of valuable information the Handbook contains. In conclusion, the Bureau of Agriculture would take this opportunity of acknowledging the kind assistance received from the Hon. the Minister of Agriculture of New South Wales, the proprietors of the "Australian Agriculturist," Messrs. Sandover & Co., and others, in lending many of the blocks which illustrate this volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
