Excerpt from Strawberry Culture Strawberries grow wild in nearly all localities, on all kinds of soil, and without any care at all. In the wild state they are neither large, productive nor profitable. Though the soil be virgin and the locality the most favor able, the plant's energies are fully taxed in the strug gle with other growing things for its share of the food and moisture in the earth, and it is able to produce only a few small berries. When man enters the struggle, ex terminates the competitors, furnishes more food and pre vents the loss of the moisture, the result is different.

As the grower does his work well or otherwise the results are satisfactory or otherwise. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
