The Land Of Oranges.

The state Of Florida raised this year
over 100000 oranges, and this was a
short crop. asked DR.. Harris, the
speaker Of the house. to night. what the
crop would be five years from now, and
ne answered: Eat least five times that
much. or 250,000,000r' "And five years
laterP" Yah! figures fail for that com
pilation," he said, laughingly. / have
seen nothing in print that gives an ade-
quate idea of the immensely of the cul-
ture. In the old days orange-growing
was fancy pursuit, INDUCED in here
and There. A grove of 800 trees was
then a large one. The finest grove in
Florida is the Speer grove, near here,
which covers only six acres and has $50
trees. The next best is the Hart grove,
at Palatka, which has 700 trees. The
first is worth $4,000, and yields $780,
600 oranges, on the trees $15 thousand.
The crop this year Ga short year,, sold
for $4,000 on the trees. The Hart grove
is worth 100000, and yields about &c.
600 year. The only reason that these
groves are so valuable is that the trees
are about 40 years old, and in full bear
ing. Now, Mr.. Markham, of Atlanta,
has near the Speer grove, with its 600
trees, grove of 600 young trees just
coming in" as they call it. His son,
Marcellus, has 1000 trees, of which on
ly 600 are bearing and Judge Hayden
grove OF 1000 trees just bearing their
first fruit, Gen. Sanford a grove of s..
600 young trees. Mr.. W. ]. Trawick,
of Macon, grove Of 5000 trees. From
these figures, samples Of hundreds of
Others, it will be seen that orange-plant-
ing for the past few years has been a
business on large scale Instead of a
fancy, as formerly. For example, Mr..
Markham's grove will produce ten times
as many oranges as are produced by the
Speer grove, now the finest in the state.
Gen. Sanford's grove alone will produce
more oranges than are now produced in
a radius of eight miles which has 1922
groves. Or, to make it palmer, Sanford
is the center of the largest orange-pro-
ducing portion of the state. In a radi-
us Of eight miles from this hotel there
are 1892 groves, with 1861 trees.
These groves now produce 100000
oranges, but only 5per cent. of the trees
in this radius are bearing. When the
other So per cent. come in, this radius
of eight miles will produce 50,000,0O0
oranges from a grove that in six years
will produce 100000; Judge Hayden
100000 from grove that in four years
will produce 100000; Gen. Sanford
$4,000 from grove that in six years
will produce 100000; and so on
through the list. In addition to the ac.
cessions from these groves coming in,
the groves now bearing will increase
their yield annually for many years, as
the full fruitage Of a tree is not reached
under twenty years. In addition to this
there are thousands of new trees being
put out annually that in five or ten years
will add millions to the crop. 1t will
be seen, therefore, that the estimate of
250,OO0,0 900 oranges as the crop for 1887
is very reasonable one. Indeed, itmay
just as likely be twice that much. In
ten years it will certainly be 100000, 900,
with indefinite expansion beyond that
point. Florida Letter.

Don't the Single Stars Feel Lonely Up

She threw her hair back and took her
position at the instrument The young
man explained the mysteries of themoon
to her. She wondered how the young
people there liked it, or whether there
were any young people there. Perhaps
nobody was young and nobody was old,
but they were like mumies-what an
idea-two mummies making love to each
other! Suddenly she turned to him:
"Will you show me the double starp"
"With the greatest pleasure" said he.
GLOW beautiful! One is orange red
and one isemerald green, and the two re-

girl.

pleasanter than to be alone in such
great empty space. Does not n single

"Not more lonely than am myself"
said the young astronomer.
The young lady kept her eye closely
applied to the telescope u very long
time, and when she looked off the glass
her eyes were sullused and glistenng.
II may be that she pitied the lonely
man.

something discordant, marring them?
refuse to believe it of any girl who

drop bit of wisdom in your ears which
will take the harshness out of every dis
agreeable duty in life. In DIR. John

wrote: whatever one does well she is
sure to do easily" and words to the eff
feet that what one goes at thoroughly
ceases to be disagreeable. know girl

out at the trouble she takes with every
thing she does; but they are very apt
to say, after all is thrOugh: You have
such an easy way of turning off things,
and things always stay done for you"
Of course they do. Thorough is the
Saxon for through, and anything that
is thoroughly done is through with. 1t
is queer paradox that if you try to do
things easily, to shirk and sfur them
over, you will always find it hard to get
along; while if you put all sorts of pains
into your work, and never think how cas-
lily it can be done, but how well it can
