Orange Culture in Florida.

At n recent meeting Of the directors Of
at the Weldon House, ST. Adams "A box
of most excellent oranges were received
from Hon. Henry G. Root Of Bennington,
who is spending the winter at Jacksonville,
Florida, which Mr. Root had thoughituily
sent to his associates for their inspection
and pleasure. They wcr' duly tested and
pronounced good.
In this connection We would also ac-
knowledge the receipt or the report Of The
convention OF Florida fruit growers at
Palatka. The report contains good many
facts Of interest concerning oranges and
orange groves. We present some of them
to our readers
The orange IS regarded as the king of
Florida fruits, being III greatest demand,
the most hardy, the easiest to cult
va,e and the most profitable in its
cash returns. Although the number of
orange groves have rapidly increased dur
ing the last few years, the demand has
continued greater than the supply. The
groves range from one hundred to several
thousand trees, and the young seedlings
generally begin to bear at about nine years
of age, but sometimes considerably earlier,
under favorable conditions. During the
years of constant work and no pay which
must elapse before young grange grove is
I,ror.ri,t INT Ii
of how to support himself is serious one
to tho now seitlor In spite of what is said
| Of The facility of orange culture, the or
ange tree, especially during the early years,
is capricious IN its growth, and requires
close study and careful attention. Under
bad treatment or neglect the tree quickly
withers and dies. Patience, industry, tact
and intelligence are required for success in
orange culture, and the persons who drift
into Florida from the north full of dreams
of trees loaded with golden fruit, and cx-
pecting to reap quick returns from slight
labor, are likely to be bitterly disappointed
before they are through with the expert
ment. 1t is only those who have learned
to wait as well as to labor who can sue
coed.
As to the profits Of orange culture, when
it is successful, the annual return from Il
grove in good bearing condition may be
fairly estimated from SO to $2j per tree.
The oranges bring from two to four dollars
per hundred, and the trees bear from five
to fifteen hundred. a grove in good con-
dilion aud rightly managed brings large
return on the capital invested. But the
outlook is not all golden, AS we have in
dlcated' there are many adverse contingent
c!es, and the difficulty of obtaining cheap
and rapid transportation constitutes an al
ditional embarrassment.

on the Freedmen's bank was short speech
by Randall in defense of Robert Purvis of
Philadelphia, colored man, and one of the

the passage of this bill, would, to say the

The Till Beecher case has now reached
Il crisis-one that may or may rot affect
the verdict of the jury, but which will
have an important bearing with the world,
when it comes to make up its verdict. With
the question of mere dollars an cents, the
public do not concern themselves. With
them the main and only issue is the guilt
or innocence of Henry Ward Beecher.
With a verdict for Beecher, If all attain
able testimony, pro and con, were present
ed, the public would, doubtless, accept the
result as vndication of his character and
the consignment of Tilton and Moulton to
infamy as conspirators, blackmailers and
foul-mouth slanderers. A verdict, how
ever, for Tllton would brand Beecher as an
infamous scoundrel and adulterer, and
would vindcate Titon and Moulton for
the part they have played in this great
scandal. And here it must be confessed
that Moulton made an excellent appear.

Pease of Mississippi, read in the senate, on

Health Administration Of New Eng

The alarming prevalence Of smallpox at
Burlington, Of which we have reliable in
formation, this morning, says the Spring
field RepuJicdn, well illustrates the feeble
ness of the ordinary New England munich
pality in health administration, and should
be fair warning TO all town and city atl-
thorities to be on their guard. The introduce
ton Of smallpox into Massachusetts, in the
winter of 1928 has cost the state treasury
fully quarter of u million dollars and the
cities and towns large sums besides, 10 say
nothing of the loss consequent on the sick
ness and death Of members of the commit
nifty. The northern frontier is peculiarly
exposed on account Of the constant passage
to and fro of the French Canadian clc-
ment. An efficient health officer, who
should be a physician, with power to in
yestigatc and act promptly and thoroughly,
with the advice and sanction Of sclcctmcn
or aldermen, will generally suffice to stamp
out the disease whichever it appears. The
