Abstract
THIS is a practical work on the subject of fruit-growing in British Columbia, and we recommend it to any who have the intention of emigrating for the purpose of engaging in this healthful and interesting pursuit. But not to these alone, for the style in which it is written is sufficiently good to make the reading agreeable to the general public. It sets forth in plain but picturesque language the reasons that led the rancher to select British Columbia for the scene of his operations; it describes his journey out, relates the difficulties the new settler had to overcome, and proceeds to describe the measure of success that soon attended his labours.
Fruit-ranching in British Columbia.
