Overview

Excerpt from Sixth Annual Report of the Commissioner of Agriculture of the State of Maine, 1907 A great deal of uncertainty prevailed during the entire season in relation to the apple crop. In some sections orchards suffered severely from winter-killing during the winter of 1906-7. Trees that were uninjured as a rule bore a heavy crop, but apples were late and the cold, wet weather in the fall prevented them from completing their growth and coloring up until very late. At the proper gathering time many of them were not fully mature, and in many instances help was so scarce that harvesting was delayed, and the apples suffered, as well as the potatoes, from the early frosts. Those who gathered their apples at the usual harvesting time received a larger crop than they expected and apples that were put on to the market early brought a high price.
