To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In California orchards of 50 to 100 acres of cherries are not uncommon, but who ever heard of such orchards in the Eastern or Middle states ; and yet we have land and climate particularly adapted to cherry growing. Cherry growing in the Eastern and Middle states is often confined to a few straggling trees in the door-yard or along the fence-rows, where they receive no cultivation ; the owners at no expense for the cherries thus produced. When the fruit ripens the owners are not informed as to t...he proper methods of gathering, marketing, or the best packages. The cherries are hastily and roughly plucked from the tree, often with stems pulled out of the fruit, thrown into large baskets, and sold promiscuously without grading, and dumped into the market in this unsightly conditition, to bring whatever the ship- per may offer. The shipper who buys these ill-assorted and poorly gathered cherries immediately assorts the fruit, packing the best in boxes, similar to those used by the California growers, selling the second grade to local pie makers, and throwing the culls away.
