Senior thesis, Kansas State Agricultural College, 1898.Morse Department of Special CollectionsIntroduction: The treatment of a subject of this kind in an essay of fifteen hundred or two thousand words must of necessity take up but few phases and give but little of what might be written on each phase. The aim is to show as clearly as possible the resources of Kansas as a fruit growing state, the position of Horticulture among the industries, and its position horticulturally among the states; to give a short history of the growth of the fruit industry in the state, and to discuss, to limited extent, the various kinds of fruits produced, the varieties best suited to the state, and the cultivation, protection, packing, and marketing of our fruits.The organization that has made the Item available believes that the Item is in the Public Domain under the laws of the United States, but a determination was not made as to its copyright status under the copyright laws of other countries.
