About this Item

Some chipping and color loss to titles on front cover, else a very Good, solid copy. An uncommon Orange Judd title and quite scarce in First Printing. A full how-to on the propagation, pruning and growing of different types of dwarf fruit trees for householders. "Even in strictly commercial operations the dwarf trees have their place. They make the best of fillers for temporary planting between permanent standard trees in a new orchard, and there are some commercial orchards of dwarf trees , particularly of pears, long and favorably known in America as profit yielding enterprises". Frank Albert Waugh (1869 ? 1943) was an American landscape architect whose career focused upon recreational uses of national forests, the production of a highly natural style of landscape design, and the implementation of ecology as a basis for choices in landscape design. He essentially pioneered the role of the landscape architect as an integral part of national forest design and development through such projects as the Mount Hood Scenic Byway and the Bryce Canyon scenic roadway. His ideas spread via his diverse writings, including Recreation Uses in the National Forests and The Natural Style in Landscape Gardening. He also wrote prolifically about education, agriculture, and social issues in such works as The Agricultural College and Rural Improvement. Seller Inventory # SKU2010023555
