The Gainesville San states that five

We clip the following from the

vegetable growers. We can produce as
fine quality of Irish potatoes, and as
early, to say the least. as any other part
of Florida son Friday last Captain
O.. S. Porter presented us three Irish
potatoes, of the early rose variety, grown
on his farm south of this city. They
were planted the latter part of January,

Work for May.

Orange trees put out the second
and stronger growth this month, and
it is good time for budding. In
sects are numerous, and a careful
watch must be kept on the young
trees. The orange dogs are very de-
structive to the young leaves, and
they should be examined, picked off,
and destroyed.
your cabbages get the green fly,
use insect powder; one application
with the bellows will destroy them.
In cutting your cabbages, cut close
up, leaving the long stem in the
ground, which will throw off sprouts
that can be used as greens all the
Summer.
You must bear in mind that May
is dry month. We have round it
so three out of every four years dur
ing our residence here, and every
thing planted out should be well
watered and protected.
Plant out sweet potato draws, and
if the weather is dry, plant in the
evening, only as many as you can
water, leaving basin around the
plant to retain the water and carry 1t
down to the roou Transplant toma-
toes, and plant beans, pumpkins, etc.
Guinea and Para grass roots can also
be planted. Irish potatoes do well
in the northern market this month.
Be careful in having the potatoes
quite dry before packing, and that
the skin is not bruised and ragged
We should send forward snap beans,
tomatoes, egg plants and cucumbers.

The Negro Emigration to Kansas.
We have repeatedly asserted
and do still assert that the
negro problem is traught with
great danger to the United States
and one that is most difficult to solve.
Wherever the negro has been in the
ascendency, there can be found igno-
rance and general decay. Take the
example of the West Indian islands.
In Hayti they have been free for one
hundred years and look at the state
of the island now, to what it was
century ago. Jamaica with its 500, 900
negroes and 5000 whites is fast re-
verting to its original primitive wilds.
On the contrary, where the whites
are in the ascendency, and the area of
land is too limited for the negroes to
acquire any, like Barbados, the
country is fourishing. Have the
Africans, in their own country,
made any advance in civilization
from what we know Of them to re-
mote periods? They were in contact
with countries which were the moth
ers of progress and the refined arts,
and thousands upon thousands of
christians have lost their lives in the
vain attempt to christianize and civil
ize them.
They are fond of finery and have
all the precious metals in abundance
Have they ever turned them to &C
count even to the making of orna-
ments for the person? They are
satisfied with piece of bone, stuck
N I he 49, ss;a s.sElE
coined money but send away their
gold dust in exchange for beads and
such like trash. They are fond of
music but have they ever invented a
musical scale, OF, anything except a
"tom tom or some such rude ln-
strument They are always at war.
Where are the warlike instruments
that they have eyer invented ?
Even their idols and fetish are made
of the toughest burnt logs. Some
times an exception may be found in
"learned negro" and these are
grasped at by philanthropists as an
example of what can be done. But
these cases are rare, and, like comets,
no one knows when they began, Or
where they have gone to. No one
even hears of one of them dying,
honored for the good he has accom-
plished, nor are their lives consid-
cred of sufficient Importance TO tempt
a biographer. The negro is a dis
tinct animal from the white man. lie
has his status in life and can be made
useful member of our social system
by treating him in the right way.
But the way Of politicians is a crook.
ed one and as long as there are few
million negroes, whose vote is essen.
tial to one party or another, so long
will they continue a disturbing ele
ment which must eventually end in
their own destruction.
What to do with them is the biggest
problem this nation has to solve
AS long as they were kept separate
and did not come in contact with
white laborors everything could run
in an even groove, but the latter are
not going to rub shoulders with the
negro and those philanthropiSts who
are encouraging them TO migrate
to Kansas will be responsible foI
oceans of blood. This powerful ma.
ton cannot protect the few Indians
in the west, from the brutality oil
