Fruit Raising In Central America



II is not surprising that fruit raising in
Central America and the islands in the
Spanish Main should be attracting the
attention of Americans. The great and
constantly increasing consumption of
such fruits in this country, particularly
of bananas, cocoanuts and pineapples,
gives stability to the demand for them,
and is building up large and thriving
trade between the Central American
ports and New Orleans. Already a
number Of American agriculturists
have settled in Honduras, Guatemala
and Costa RIGA, and are engaged
in fruit culture, and two weeks ago
the little steamer Santa Barbara carried
out several Southern gentlemen who in-
tend to establish fruit plantations on the
Blanco and Ulva Rivers in Honduras
In the last three years a number OF
Germans have settled round Port Liv-
ingston, in Guatemala, and il is esti-
mated that the banana crop within a
radius OF fifty miles in that locality will
reach a million punches this year. The
cultivation aud shipment of these tropi-
cal fruits are destined to grow into a
large and profitable business, and it is
probable the bulk Of it will fall into the
hands of Americans.

Pumping Water.
IS. F. Alta1

What can be done in irrigation with
water supply obtained from the ground
by pumping is illustrated at r. b. Blow
er's vineyard, near Woodland. From a
well 20 feet in diameter and by means Of
machinery that he employs, using straw
for fuel, he car pour on any part of his
land 100, 900 gallons of water per hour,
or little more than three and one.half
millions in "a hours. One piece of
ground, containing six acres, he flooded
entirely with water in 81 hours. This
water, if sold Mt the price the Board of
Supervisors of Yuba county fixed for
water for purposes of irrigation, would
yield him revenue of $22 80 per hour,
or daily income of S225 Tor each ten
hours or monthly revenue of 81, 625 for
each twenty-five days. With the aid of
irrigation Mr.. Blowers has raised as high
rs II tons TO the acre OF seedless Sultana
grapes. This was from six.year old
vines. When planted from cuttings,
two years old, they yield him about
four tons per acre, and rooted vines of
the same age will yield eight tons per
acre.
