| dc.description.abstract | "In 1870 Judge John Wilson Beck set out fifty apple trees and the same number of peach trees on his homestead near Yakima City. It is doubtful, however, that these men thought much of the possible lucrative benefits of the fruit industry, as one finds the emphasis placed upon the general improvement which trees would give to the appearance of the valley, thus serving as a further inducement to settlement. Such a perishable product could not be very profitable unless there was an easily accessible market. The condition of agriculture just described was generally true in 1880, and it can be safely stated that for the greater part of the next two decades farming in the Yakima Valley was on an experimental basis." | en_US |
