Excerpt from Farm-Gardening and Seed-Growing
Mr. Brill, in writing this work, made known for the first time, in this country at least, the methods followed by those who raise vegetable seeds as a business. Other works occasionally gave brief hints upon saving the few seeds required for the family garden, but by methods unsuited to operations on a commercial scale. The author is one of the few men well qualified to treat the subject practically.
The business of seed-growing is rapidly extending in this country, and is attended by a corresponding falling off of importations. It is an occupation that presents many inducements to the careful cultivator, not the least of which is the large returns per acre from land devoted to the crops. In the business of seed-growing, a reputation for strict integrity and intelligent care forms an important portion of the capital required. The name of the grower adds a money value to the product.
Market-farming is the growing of garden vegetables by farm culture. It is the form which our agriculture must assume as the country grows older and the population more dense. Farmers in the older States with high-priced lands can not afford to grow those crops which bring them in competition with cultivators of cheap lands in the newer States, and they must devote them to crops which can not be transported to a great distance and for which there is a constant local demand.
