PINE APPLES, PLANTS AND PLANTING
Editor of The Florida Agriculturist:
In some respects it seems inde-
pendent of the ordinary laws OF veg-
etable life and growth. Like the
cactus it takes root all the sooner for
being exposed to the sun tor time
before planting. 1t may be days,
weeks or months as is most conven.
lent. l have planted them after ex>
posure to the weather for six months
and so far as l could see they grew
Just as we'll as though they had been
picked but a single day. AS to the
relative value Of the several offsets
viz: crowns crownletts, suckers and
slips, Isee no reason for any change
iu the opinion expressed nearly two
years ago i'm the ,ooiE'1Isss oiras.s... -.
AGR1oULTURIsT, that the size was
the measure of their value. Those
of equal size will trait equally soon
and produce equally good fruit. In
plantation OF these different offsets
at the first fruitage larger percent
age OF suckers will produce fruit
than either of the others. And the
only reason l can give is, because
the suckers were the largest when
planted. The crowns will be next
in their percentage of fruit and the
slips least, because when set they
were the smallest. The crownlet,s
are so small we make no account of
them but like the rest they will fruit
when large enough.
THE QUESTION
of the time of planting has recently
been raised by some of my neighbors
telling new conner that it is too
late for him to plant any this winter.
l told him that nay planting was not
more than half done yet and could
show him those that were planted
from July 10 January.
July and August are too early be-
cause the plants are then small. By
September the plants are good sized
and enough of the warm season re-
malns tor them to make good
growth before the cold OF winter
comes. Some seasons plants set in
October will make a good growth
before winter, as they have done this
season. After October newly set
plants will do but little until the next
growing season, which usually begins
in February. 1t this view be correct,
it matters very little whether plants
be set in Nov, Dec, JAN, or Feb.
All the above relate TO the well-
being OF the new plantation, without
any reference to the old one. After
the fruit is removed, the office of the
old plant is to develop the offsets
that remain. One sucker for future
fruiting, the slips and other suckers,
it there are any, for future planting.
Now, since the roots OF the old
plant supply all these with nutrition,
SO long as they all remains on the
plant just SO long they share its sup.
plies equally.
1t therefore follows that the
sooner the offsets tor planting are
removed, the sooner the remaining
sucker will have an increased supply
OF nutrition, and as a consequence

Preserving Fruits and Eggs by
''OZOne.''
From the Prairie Farmer.

From the Prairie Farmer.
Inquiries have been made in differ.
ent parts of Illinois, respecting the
merits of "a new method for preser>
wing all perishable articles from fer>
mentation and putreiaction by the
application of "ozore.n As this APP
peared to be very Important sub
iecl, both in its practical and IT'S
scientific aspects, the writer has taken
pains to make some, investigation
| of the procsss, by inquiries at the
Cincinnati office, and by chemical
examination of "ozonized water"
The method advertised is doubt
less Of some value, for specimens of
meats, eggs, apples, green corn, and
beans are exhibited, said to have
been kept in, the open air or merely
covered with "ozonized water" in
the case of vegetables) for periods of
some months. These articles retain
their form and appearance, almost as
though they were fresh; but those
who know the difference between
sugar corn an hour old ana day old
would not expect to find the delicate
flavor preserved after soaking tor
month, no matter what chemical in.
gredient might be added to the wa
ter
This ''ozonized water,' however,
as shown by unmistakable chemical
tests, is a solution OF sulphurous acid,
evidently produced by the combus
ton OF sulphur in the preserving
chamber. Ozone is practically in>
soluble in water i'll any case, and
from It's active chemical properties
it could hardly exist in presence of
sulphourous oxide.
Articles may doubtless be kept
from fermentation or putretaction by
the process whicn has been so widely
advertised within the last few months
so also may the like result be reached
by the fumes OF burning sulphur, a
process which has long been used
for special purposes, and which Is
known as "Shourd's New Dominion
Process" when applied to articles of
food.
The business OF preserving fruits,
etc., tor seasons of high prices, has
been depicted in glowing terms, but
those who desire TO invest in the new
(?) process will do we'll to give 1t
careful thought before embarking.
If apples should preserve their form
but not their flavor, intelligent pur~
chasers will refuse to buy them as
soon as the facts become known. 1tmay
also be doubted whether the "ozone
generator is worth So per package
J at the present price of sulphur Aud
if the patent has been recently issued
| it's validity is more than question:
| able.

will grow more rapidly and will att
tain a greater size before the fruiting
season. BY this means it, may fruit
one season sooner than if the offsets
remained upon the stock until Dec.
or JAN, and as a rule, here on our
pine land, larger the plant the larger
the fruit. JAS. H. WHITE.

 glar Captured--The Scene ina the Store
 A Deep Laid Plan Rolled.
 Last night just before midnight as Officers Woodruff and Began, on duty on Chapel street, between Church and Orange, were making their tour at the rear of the stores on Chapel street they noticed that box which usually stood back of Kirby's was dis placed. Looking to see what had caused the change they found it back of Mir. Rogowski's millinery establishment a few doors below, and Officer Beegan climbed up and looked in a window near the top of rear addition at Rogowski's and two burglars at work in the store He gave the alarm to his partner which the burglars heard, and they rushed like lightning to the front of the store ard jumped through the large light of glass in the front door one after the other The crash of glass startled police officers and passers by on the street and one of the burglars ran and was caught by Officer Cook on Orange street. The officer was shouted to by citi- izen that he, the officer, had got the wrong man. The officer thereupon let the man go and assisted Officer Driscoll, who had arrest
 ed the other burglar. The liberated burglar, if such he was, was soon among the missing.
 Officer Driscoll, who was at Orange street
 when the crash of glass occurred, saw 8 man coming toward him rushing as if for life.
 The man turned to go up Orange street and
 the officer ran after him. The latter being
 the fastest runner the officer drew his revolv-
 CT and shouted to him to stop or he would
 be shot, and the man stopped and threw up his hands. He was taken to the police office. In the of the store in the addition packages of valuable silks were piled up on the floor ready to be removed, and rope the size of 8 clothes line was suspended from the little rear window, through which the of fcers caught sight of the burglars. The rope was to have been used in hoisting the goods up to the window and perhaps as a | means of escape. The officers think that possibly there Q third burglar in the l transaction. The burglar arrested when ta. 1 ken to the police office gave his name as l George Higgins. When searched between l $11 and SIP were found on his person, be | side large quantity of postage stamps.
