The Total Loss TO the Crop Some
Thing Over a MILLION Dollars,

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Jan. 23.-Refer-
ring TO the damages by the recent freezing
in Florida, the Times Union tom orrow
morning will say that fIom reports received.
authenticated by personal investigation of an
expert who has travelled all through the
state where the bulk of the orange crop is
raised. it appears, first. that the actual
money value 10 the growers of oranges
rendered unmarketable by reason of being
frozen on the trees is about 81, 100, 600. eSti-
mating the original crop at 900. 600
boxes. which is quite low enough:
second, that young nursery stock in
the northern part of the state is badly dam
aged by being top-killed. but it will be by
no means a total loss; third. that bearing
orange and lemon trees nearly down to the
line of the South Florida railroad are
injured TO the extent of losing a large
part of the fall growth, on which
the bloom comes, so that the crop
of 1885 will be largely reduced in
that region; fourth. that pineapples i'm the
same region. together with guavas and other
tender tropical fruit, are killed to the roots
and will require a year to recuperate; fifth.
that early vegetables have been badly dam
aged. but can be replaced. the principle
loss being the time and expense of planting
and the loss of extra prices of an early mar
ket; sixth, that the whole spot money dam
age 10 the fruit and farm interests of the
state will not exceed s.. 00O. 600. The trees
are showing great recupera,IOn and the loss
being widely distributed. will be COMPARE
lively easy to bear. Experienced growers
are not discouraged. The weather is now
delightful.
