Transcriber's Notes

Subscripts that appeared in chemical formulas have simply been replaced
with the regular character in the text version. Thus the water is H2O.

Mixed fractions in the text version have been represented with a hyphen
separating the whole and fractional parts. Thus two and five eighths is
2-5/8.

There was no table of contents in the original; I added a short one for
the reader's convenience.

Changed 'horticulural' to 'horticultural' on page 4: "horticultural
societies".

Changed 'CoO' (cobalt oxide) to 'CaO' (calcium oxide) in header of table
on page 7.

The numbers in table No. 1 on page 9 only add to 97 lbs. I left them as
is. A good guess would be that water should be 85.66 lbs.

Changed '49-5/9' to '45-5/9' to correct the arithmetic on page 9:
"averaging 45-5/9 pounds per barrel".

The last two lines of text on page 11, "like this: One barrel Ben Davis,
$3.80; freight, $1.35; commission, 20 cents; net proceeds, $2.25. This
is supposing they should reach the other side loose.", apparently belong
on page 12. They were moved after "A report of sales would read
something".

The acreages for the Wellhouse orchards don't add up right on page 14,
but I just left them as is.

On pages 29 and 30, there are two varieties both called Haas. I've left
them as is.

Changed 'greet' to 'great' on page 40: "on a great variety of soils".

Changed 'Average' to 'Acreage' in table on page 42 to be consistent with
other tables: "Acreage, about".

Changed 'caterpiller' to 'caterpillar' on page 43: "canker-worm and
tent-caterpillar".

Changed 'successfuly' to 'successfully' on page 43: "never successfully
combated".

Changed 'Kanses' to 'Kansas' on page 48: "suitable for Kansas".

Changed 'togther' to 'together' on page 48: "two furrows together".

Left 'oak plant sixteen feet long' on page 52, although I suspect the
author meant 'plank'.

Changed 'wifh' to 'with' on page 58: "with a knife".

Changed 'occassion' to 'occasion' on page 63: "had no occasion".

Changed 'caterpiller' to 'caterpillar' on page 66: "canker-worm,
tent-caterpillar, bud moth".

Removed extra word 'of' on page 67: "amount of water".

Changed 'staight' to 'straight' on page 69: "set them up straight".

Changed 'paris' to 'Paris' on page 72: "London purple and Paris green".

Changed comma to period on page 75: "planted two rods
