The Home Acre is a book written by E. P. Roe that provides detailed information on how to create a beautiful and productive home garden. The book covers a wide range of topics, including soil preparation, plant selection, cultivation techniques, and pest control. It also includes tips on how to design a garden that is both aesthetically pleasing and functional. The author emphasizes the importance of organic gardening methods and provides practical advice on how to create a sustainable and environmentally friendly garden. The Home Acre is an excellent resource for both novice and experienced gardeners who want to create a beautiful and productive home garden.I trust that this preliminary discussion in regard to red raspberries will prepare the way for the advice to follow, and enable the proprietor of the Home Acre to act intelligently. Sensible men do not like to be told, ""You cannot do this, and must not do that""--in other words, to be met the moment they step into their gardens by the arbitrary dictum of A, B, or C.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Ke THE HOME ACRE. CHAPTER I. TREE-PLANTING. LAND hunger is so general that it may be regarded as a natural craving. Artificial modes of life, it is true, can destroy it, but it is apt to reassert itself in later generations. To tens of thousands of bread-winners in cities a country home is the dream of the future, the crown and reward of their life-toil. Increasing numbers are taking what would seem to be the wiser course, and are combining rural pleasures and advantages with their business. As the questions of rapid transit are solved, the welfare of children will turn the scale more and more often against the conventional city house or flat. A home can be created in rented dwellings and apartments; but a home for which we have the deed, a cottage surrounded by trees, flowers, lawn, and garden, is the refuge which best satisfies the heart.
