Successful farmers whether dairy
men, fruit growers or stock raisers, are
those who consult the requirements of
the markets rather than their own incli-
nations in the matter. Consumers who
pay their money will always demand a
voice in the style and variety of the
goods they purchase. Thus it is the
breeders of grade draft horses meet a
ready demand and good prices for all the
good heavy horses as soon as they are
old enough for market. The markets OF
this country and all Europe are eagerly
calling for mare good draft horses and OF
heavier type. They are equally ready
to pay the increased price for the extra
heavy teams when they can find them,
and so of the best stock of beef and dairy
cattle, and of hogs. The high grades and
full bloods pay best in the strong compe-
tition of the world.

There is charm about the hill country of

attracts the admiration of strangers Farming

cotton planting, and the way seems 10 be now

spring growth with It's bright green fields, the
beautiful and graceful pear trees and the pro:u
sion of spring flowers gives a charming and pic
uresque appearance to the whole country sur
rouniing Tallahassee. the great freeze was
calamity TO the orange trees, which had seemed
to have overcome the effects of former cold sea-
sons, and it is demonstrated that il is unsafe to
place any reliance on growing oranges for profit
IN this portion OF Florida. The LeConte pear
seems TO be perfectly adapted to this soil and
thrifty young orchards are seen eyerywhere II

strangers who sneer at the designation of Flor
ida as the Land of F.owers,' would no longer
do so ii they would visit Tallahassee Misses
OF wisteria, great hillocks of banksia, and thous
ands OF roses delight the eye and charm the
senses on every hand. If flowers could be trans
ported. like straw berries to the Northern cities
the ladies OF this section could hardly supply the
demand which would spring up for the Roses OF
Florida Perhaps the skill of the florists may
invent some m.ihoi of preservation and system
OF transporta ion which will open a flower mar
ket at the North, to utilize this great sup-rabun-
dance OF f,ral wealth. Tuberoses have been
successfully sent from East Florida, and we see
no reason why other flowers of a like nature
could not be preserved for two or three days in
transit.
There is evidently movement in real estate
in Middle Florida. and its prosperity seems now
assured, in which We shall all rejoice

Sanford Journal Thomas A. Edison, the

passed through Sanford Tuesday, en- route from
his winter home at Fort Myers to New York.
Mr. Edison wanted to stop over in Sanford, but
large party he could not do so.. Judge E
4. Foster, in company with several members OF
the bar left Monday morning last for Miami,
where he will hold the first court evef-heid in
Dade county. The "trip will cover a period of
about three weeks, having TO a great extent to
be made by sail boat. Whether the good &C.
complished will compensate for the time and Ia
Dor involved is very doubtful question; never
theless, the devotion TO duty manifested by the
Judge in this effort to put in operation the ma
chinery OF the law in that hitherto neglected, we
will not say henighted, region. deserves CON-
mendation. The expense incident to the dis
charge of this duty must be very great and the
Legislature should make special compensation
to Judge Foster.

the heat of argument as to say "damn."
This so shocked some of his neighbors
that they brought suit against him, under

trial twenty-one young women testified
that James did say "damn," but that
nevertheless he was = good young man.
Other young women testified that they
had never heard James say 4" DAMN" and
that he was q good young man. The

And lifted its shining lid.

Sheleft childish kiss.

And dined in happy mood,
Wondering much at tue SAVIOR
Hid 10 his humble food;
While all about were visions
Full OF prophetic bliss,
But be never thought of the magic
In his little daughters kiss.
While she with her kettle swinging.
Merrily trudged away,

Catching some wild birds Law:
And thought how many q shadow
Of life and fate We would miss.
1t always our frugal dinners
Were seasoned with Q kiss.

Exposure to cold, says the Rural
Neso Yorker, causes suffering. Suffer-
ing is at the expense of the vital forces
and wastes flesh. Flesh is wholly put
ON and maintained by the consumption
of food, and anything that wastes flesh
wastes food. Food, whether grown or
purchased, represents the products Of
the farm, and on its proper consump-
ton depends the profits of farming.
The farmer, therefore, who compels
his stock to run ont of doors and en-
dure the cold, does not understand the
first principles of animal life, or of the
conversion of food into valuable prod
ucts. .- $40. :.

The Moose as a Racer.

II is said that domesticated moose
belonging to a half-breed in Maine is a
valuable assistant about the farm, and
that it is capable, when hitched to q sled
and driven upon the ice, of beating any
horse that can be produced against 1t.
AT an exhibition of moose racing in this
city some years ago the moose were very
Disappointing to those who went to see
them. and to the gentleman who had
brought them on in the trust
that they wonlddroye money
making attraction when offered
to the public as popular adm is
sion prices. They were quite slow and
cumbersome, in very painful contrariety
to the general belief that had been enter
tanned of them, and horses of common
breed and dubious rapidity were feet in
comparison. Very smooth ice might
make difference, but a barnessed
moose running against a good horse on
track of earth would seem thing that
was anchored.-Harper's Weekly.
