Citron.

We notice that correspondent of one
of our State papers advises the growers
of citron to ''pick them when they are
ripe for preserving purposes. We make
bold to advise otherwise, as ripe citron
are worthless and too spongy to preserve.
They must be picked when they arrive
at their full growth but still green; and
it is even necessary to boil green grass
or the leaves of the citron itself with the
fruit to preserve the green outer skin
when put up. Let anyone inspect the
citron of commerce sold at the stores
and they will see that we are right; at
any rate we have been preserving citron
for forty years and should know some
thing about it. Again, if the citron fruit
is dried before the sweet has been boiled
into it, no after process can make it into
sugared citron. 1t is not every variety
of citron that will answer for preserving;
there are many kinds that are quite
worthless.

Water Snails -Bussoo.

All tropical rivers are inhabited by
water snails of different kinds, which
are used by the inhabitants for food, as
well as by the different animals. One
species found in the streams of Jamaica,
have very pretty shells and it is impos-
sible to find two alike. They cling to
the rocks at the bottom of the rivers, and
it is favorite occupation of the Maroon
girls to dive for them. When gathered
they are thrown into boiling water and
then picked out of the shell and made
into soups. Bussoo and Pigeon peas
make a rich soup much relished by the
white people as we'll as blacks. Cooked
with Curry powder they make fine dish.
These water snails, but of different
species, are plentiful in the st. Johns
wherever there is rocky bottom. We
have found them opposite Jacksonville,
but the river between Volusia and Lake
Beresford abound with them. The shells
in large heaps can be seen on the banks
of the river where they have been
thrown by the raccoons, otter and pos
sums; they dive after them for food,
pick out the snail and throw away
the shell. In many places the coquina
rock crops out that has been formed
from these shells, but by what process
the writer knoweth not, but evidently in
they same way that the coquina OF the
coast has been formed from the sea shells.
The Bussoo must be plentiful in the Ca
loosahatchee River, and as the people
in that part can grow Pigeon peas with
success, they should luxuriate in Bussoo
soup.

Cauliiower Raising.

Mr.. j. H. Fry, of Palatka, sent to
Peter Henderson, of New York, head
of caulifower grown by Mr.. Robert
Cairns, near Palatka, and this is the an
swer received:
"Dear Sir.-Yours of the Goth ultimo
and also the three splendid heads OF
caulif1ower are at hand. Do you know
that that neighbor of yours, unless he is
a very rich man already, If he has ten
acres of ground fit to grow that cauli-
flower has fortune in his hands? Such
caulihowers as that at this date in the
New York market would bring $4,000
per 100, and as you can plant at least
10000 on an acre you can very well un-
derstand what his profits would be. l
must admit to being taken entirely by
surprise that such cauliflower could be
grown in your neighborhood. 1t is iii
teen inches across and exceeds anything
that have ever seen grown as early
caulifower. Occasionally in the fall we
get it that size but never in the spring.
1t seems to me that your sons could get
at no better work than to go into that
business. OF course the land must have
been highly fertilized or it could not
have produced that extraordinary
growth, l believe on some cool Florida
soil we'll MANFRED with rotted stable ma
nure, and then again by the use of prob
ably half ton Of guano sowed over the
ground and hoed in after the crop is half
grown, you would never fail to get ex-
traordinary results. OF course l cannot
know exactly what would be the best
way of doing it to bring about the best
results; but l presume it should be sOwn
sometime about the first of October and
then planted ont through the winter to
attain the size it has at this date. In any
event it is an extraordinary thing to see
such crop at this season of the year
and crop too, of such value. l would
like to hear further from you in the
matter / have handed the head to Ell
liot who will see that the other head is
sent to your friend Charlton.
Very truly yours,
PETER HENDERSON,
"P. S.-You don't say what variety it
is-we think.it is snow-ball' of course,
but Elliot swears it is not, so we are hav-
ing quite good natured row over it,,
Please say what kind it is"

relative to practice OF making proofs in
homestead and preemption cases on
day different from the day advertised.
The law and regulations require notice
OF intention to make proof to be publish
ed "a certain time to be fixed,) and the
names OF witnesses to be given. These
requirements are for purpose which is
defeated if proofs are not made in accord
ance Herewith. Proofs made on date
other than advertised, are irregular on
their face; such proofs ought not to be
accepted by local officers unless accom-
panied by the most satisfactory evidence
OF the impossibility of appearance at the
time fixed, and the reasons therefor, and
then only for the purpose of submission
Tor the consideration of this Office.
A special report in such cases should

Springtirne.
The Florida Agricuzturiiot.

Editor of The Florida Agriculturisf.:
Spring is here! Light, beautiful
Spring. But / am not going to send you
a Spring poem; have something more
substantial. Our Florida Spring is
something real, tangible, beautiful and
grand. The pros and cons have all been
rehearsed over and over, buG Florida re-
mains the same in the wealth Of tropical
treasures, and steadily increases in her
groves Of golden fruit, in beautiful homes
and appreciative hearts. There is moth
ing to fear for the future of Florida; her
progress is onward; all attempts to inn
pede it are as pebble held against the
tide. We let these things pass there is
no time to waste on them. Time is pre-
ciOus we know it's value here.
The land is always ready to till, the
trees, flowers and shrubs are always
thriving and therefore need much atten-
ton to keep them at their best We
have vegetables to plant every month in
the year. There is something suited for
all seasons The hand of industry finds
no idle time. Where the earth responds
SO readily to the labor bestowed upon it
there is always plenty to do if one has a
mind to work. 1t is work that makes
the earth glad and rejoice, as it unfolds
it's treasures in response to the hand of
toll, There the earth never refuses her
increase, or bids the laborers cease their
toll. How different at the North. The
frozen lands keep the farmer confined tto
his 'chores" half the year, and even
then he must face the biting blast and
wallow through banks of snow, or slush
and mud, and glad is he when back
to the house again, and the kitchen door
shut behind him. He pulls off his boots
and puts his cold feet near the fire to
thaw out. He rubs his ears, for they
begin to ache as the warm air strikes
them. He looks up at the frosty win
dows from which nothing can be seen
outside, and says lawful cold weather,
awful" AT the same time the Florida
farmer is blowing, planting and reaping,
for as one crop natures another goes in.
His coat hangs in the house, and as he
sees a neighbor pass he looks up and
says "fine weather, neighbor, fine
weather." How do you like the two
pictures? They are real. Would you
know more of this pleasant land? Come
and see for yourself. There are hum
dreds of acres lying idle, waiting for inn
provement; a few years and it will lie
idle no more. 5. l.. REED.
