THE Palatka (Fla.) Herald says
AS evidence of what has been done
in orange culture in the State we cite
a few instances. Dummitt's grove, on
Indian river, is perhaps the finest in
the State. 1t cost its proprietor to
take care of it last year $1,000 and
Welded COG, 900 oranges, for which he
was paid 81 900. This grove has
three thousand trees, which, with
proper care would average three thOus-
and oranges each, and give an annual
income of $4,000 to $4,000. II. l..
Harris grove, at Palatka, yields him
IN income of fifteen to twenty thous-
and dollars per annum. Arthur CHM s
grove, at Mellonville, of eleven hun
dred trees, pays him twelve to fifteen
thousand dollars yearly, and is worth
one hundred thousand dollars. Besides
these groves there are great number
of splendid promise; but having been
planted of late years the incomes de-
rived from them are as yet of little
moment. Mr.. De Barry, of New York,
has q grove near Enterprise of two
thousand trees. Mr.. Charles S. Brown
of New York, has one opposite Palat-
ka of one thousand two hundred trees
and Mr.. James Patterson, of Toronto
has a grove on Banana river Of eight
hundred trees.

A MERCHANT. ON FARMING.

The following is an extract from an
address by Elliott C. Cowdin, before
the Westchester County IN. W Ag-
ricultural Society:
ut has been my lot as an active
merchant, to mingle with men in al
most every station of society, in many
of the nations of Europe and l am
convinced that no class in any country
of the world is so thoroughly independ-
ent, possess SO many real comforts, and
have so little cause of and discomfort
connected with vocation, as the farm
ers of America. Always an honorable
pursuit, farming is remunerative when
properly prosecuted; and as general
rule, it is more universally successful
than any other calling. You may
question this statement until you care
fully consider it.
Let me say to our young men, be not
envious of the merchant or the banker
of the busting city; but rather bear
in mind that Of all who chase after
wealth along the slippery paths of COM
merce and finance, scarcely more than
one in q hundred reaches opulence
q few more obtain a competency in
season for old age, while nine-tenths
miserably fail ere they have fairly
started in the race, and for the most
pat, die poor.
Neither let our young men be lured
from rural life-its duties and its dig.
mites, its tolls and its rewards-by the
glittering bauble of the learned pro.
fessions. Lawyers, physicians and
clerymen, at the very best, lead labor.
ious lives. The great body of these
are mere drudges-hard-working men
who pursue the noiseless tenor of theil
way, and gain bare subsistence. Il
any of them rise above the common
mass, it is usually the result of years
of intense study and tireless applica.
ton to their one pursuit, which, unless
they are marvel of good luck, will
surely undermine their health, and
very likely afford nothing to leave Il
their heirs except that professional
fame which is among the most evanes.
cent Of earthly possessions. Labor
throughout the universe, is the estab.
lShed order OF things.
The successful farmers must observe
study and try. Like all other pursuits
he gains by what he does with eye
brain and hand. He must not only
accumulate facts with care, but trace
them to their original sources, examine
their relations to other facts, and ther
skillfully apply them to the particular
ease before him. He must never for.
get that his avocation is an art and 9
science, and like other arts and science.
is governed by the law of progress
Alas, how many farmers cultivate the
soil to-day just as their ancestors titled
it generations ago, and usually for nc
better reason than that their grand
fathers set the example which they
blindly follow"

REST EASY. FRIENDS.

4 contemporary asserts that when
ever newspaper has advanced to that
place where people think it worth while
10 be concerned about its course, give
earnest, friendly advice about Its con
duct, and find fault with it, that paper
is already power i'm the land. II this
view Of the ease be correct, then the
NEW NORTHWEST has been a power
since its second issue, more than three
years since.
We think We may with entire safety
assert that there has never been a news
paper published on the Coast that has
given rise TO more comment than has
The NEW NORTHWEST. Editors, politi-
clans and private individuals have from
time to time profiered advice and vol
unteered criticism, hut We, with all due
Difference TO the opinions Of others, have
steadily kept the helm, always able 81
far 10 out-ride the billOws that have al
times surged stormily around our bark.
And when the advice man puts in an
appearance at our office, we listen
gravely TO his suggestions, while We
sharpen the pencil that will, 50 soon as
he takes his departure, trace in our own
way our own thoughts.
II persons will just remember that for
the present ,cc propose 10 run this paper,
they will save thereby much time and
breath not 10 mention paper and post
age, aud will perhaps like the paper as
well after all As though it swayed and
bent 10 the opinions Of everybody. We
will cheerfully exchange with these
Jealous would-be editors, il they will
start newspaper on their own account;
and they probably will never get 10
control one until they do.

TO BORROWERS.

Subscribers, who take the NEW
NORTHWEST, and pay for it-snd they
are not few-are requested TO mark
this paragraph for the benefit OF those
who hsbitually read the paper at our
expense.
We are glad whenever any poor man,
or poorer woman who cannot take the
paper because Of chronic lmpecuniosity,
gets opportunity to read it gratis. But
We know Of many regular borrowers,
who are perfectly able TO get the paper
honestly, who never pay a cent for 1t,
and vet never do without it. Our sub
seribers often complain OF this. But
they are not alone the sufferers from
such injustice. Let every borrower who
roads these lines, and who could sub
scribe for the NEW NORTHWEST if not
too parsimonious, remember that they
are sponging their intellectual food from
the very bone and slnew of the financial
existence upon which they prey. II
every man and woman who confesses
that they get the paper by regular bor-
rowing were able 10 see themselves as
.rs zee them, they'd skulk of at once
alter three dollars and subscribe, snd
thus get the paper honestly for the cur
rent wear.
