Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Massachusetts Crop Report, 1901 Bulletin No. 1, Crop Report for the month of May, the first of our current series of monthly crop bulletins, is herewith presented. The general plan of issue of these bulletins will not vary much from that of former years, and we shall, as in the past, endeavor to place the bulletins in the hands of our readers on as near the date of issue as possible. An article by some scientist of reputation or some practical agriculturist of wide experience will be included in each issue. This bulletin contains an article on "Three common orchard scales," by H. T. Fernald, Ph.D., professor of entomology at the Massachusetts Agricultural College, which we would commend to the attention of our readers. Progress of the Season. The May returns of the United States Department of Agriculture (Crop Reporter for May, 1900) show the area under winter wheat in cultivation on that date to have been about 28,267,000 acres. This is 2,015,000 acres, or 6.7 per cent, less than the area sown last fall, but 2,032,000 acres, or 7.7 per cent, in excess of the acreage harvested last year. For the area remaining under cultivation the average condition was 94.1, as compared with 88.9 on May 1 of last year, 76.2 in 1899, and 83.6, the mean of the averages of the last ten years. The average condition of winter rye on May 1 was 94.6, as compared with 93.1 on April 1, 85.5 on May 1 of last year, 85.2 in 1899, and 89,2, the mean of the May averages of the last ten years. The present condition is the highest since 1891. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
