About Figs.

In another place will be found an article from
the FLoRIDIAN on figs. In our visits to Tala-
bassee, and from the Suwannee river west, we
were impressed with the idea that figs could be
grown in that portion Of the State with about
the same profit as could oranges farther east and
south. The shipping of the green fruit is not
the best method of marketing the fig; on the
contrary until We can secure the large purple
figs from Smyrna for drying, 1t will be better TO
can the fruit, and for that purpose the large yel
low may be placed at the head of the list as
these are very sweet and thin skinned and need
little or no preparation before they are cooked
with sugar. No more delicate conserve can be
set before the most fastidious than dish of figs
preserved with white sugar, pound for pound.

Florida Correspondence sandersville GA Herald
Crossing Prairie creek and near Shell
creek we came up with the camp OF
party of men familiarly known in the
State as
COW HUNTERs.
At this season of the year the hunters are
quite busy penning their cattle to mark
and brand them. They are generally we'll
mounted on nimble ponies with large
waterproof saddle bags filled with ra-
tions for themselves and feed for their
horses, and all with the indispensable
double barrel shotgun or repeating rifle,
and ammunition strapped across their
shoulders. They are q sui gerser's class
and are recognized az soon as seen. Often
they scour the woods alone for several
days finding out their grazing grounds,
and then club together and drive to the
pens. The party often takes a wagon
with supplies of corn, oats, the inevitable
hominy or grits, coffee, -four, and salt for
the game they kill. BY their nomadic
life they are fine riders, and show them
selves men of strong will and solid sense.
They are pleasant and affable to strang-
era but doubtless would prove rough
customers if bad blood was raised. Their
indignation is promptly aroused at any
one suspected Of marking their calves in
another mark, or of changing marks OF
brands. and in such cases the tardy move
ments Of the law are probably often dis.
regarded, and summary methods adopted
to stop the offender.

Pensacola, Wednesday, June 25, 1884.
The Conservative Democratic Party of Florida
will hold State Convention at Pensacola on
Wednesday, June IS, at 10 o'clock NJ, for the
following purposes:
To choose delegates to represent the State In

ernor, Lieutenant Governor and Presidential
Election al Large TO be voted for e. the next

To choose a State Executive Committee to
conduct the campaign of 1884
To transact such other business as NAV come
before the Convention
The different counties in the State will send
delegates to the Convention upon the following
basis:
One delegate for the first one hundred votes,
or part of one hundred, cast in each county for
the candidates upon the Conservative Demo-
cratic State ticket at the general election in $780,
one additional delegate for every additional hun
dred votes or the last fraction over the one hun
dred when it amounts to fifty or more so cast
tor such candidates, the number to be deter
mined, when there is difference, by the vote for
such candidate on said ticket who stood highest
on the county vote. But if any county increased
its vote at the general election of 1882 it shall
have the benefit of such increase. The counties
under this rule will be entitled to representation
as follows:
