organization Ia this city, addressed
letters to President Cleveland, Score
tary of State Bayard and lead ms
Senators and Congressman, asking FOL
their views on the subject of immigration
Answers have been rece we'd from mum
Der, including President Cleveland, who
stated that his views were fully set forth
In his annual message and he had nothing
TO add but that the subject was one worthy
OF the deepest consideration.
Secretary Bayard answered that bJ
virtue of his position 1t would not be prop
er for him TO express an opinion.
Senator John T. Morgan thought thai
the Central European nations furnish
good citizens and imm grafton from
those countries should be encouraged
with proper restrictions. Senator J

Chinese should be rigidly ex.
cluded, and that the Italians

tainly has the right to say when and
in what manner it shall be shipped. He
has the right to demand that he shall re-
ceive full value for money expended.
By the united action of our orange pro-
ducers, by earnest and hearty co-opera-
tiOn they can become a power within
themselves and defy all conflicting and
antagonistic elements. They have the
power and capital-for their united pat
ronage will command recognition and
produce an unlimited supply Of capital
to own and operate their own lines Of
steamers from Florida to the Northern
markets. By guaranteeing their united
support and patronage, and by subsidiz-
ing with the same, under certain specified
conditions, line of steamers built es-
pecially for the fruit traffic, they would be
in much better condition than at pres
ent.
Another matter for our fruit growers to
consider is the fertilizer question. 1t is
fact beyond contradiction that the fruit
growers of the State are annually swim
died out of thousands of dollars by un-
scrupulous manufacturers of so-called
fertilizers, which in many cases are not
worth the labor required in applying
them. The fruit growers and farmers
should demand of the Legislature the
creation of fertilizer commission, and
the enactment of a law making it mis-
demeanor to sell any fertilizer without
first having the same analyzed by the
commission and obtaining license from
them permitting it's sale.
These two points of vital interest
must be attended to before our people
can enjoy a season OF prosperity.

weed grew four feet high and was cut
down and turned underevery spring. The
owner informed us that the trees had
never received one pound of commercial
fertilizer, but that he had followed up the
beggar weed plan ever since the trees were
set out. The trees were large and well
loaded with fruit. One of the profits OF
orange culture is in keeping down the ex
penses OF production, and at the same
time keep the trees in a good, healthy
condition. Budding can now be done
with advantage, as both stock and buds
are in good growing condition.

WE received some time ago an article

PORTS.

This shows that during five days in the
midst OF Florida's shipping season our
fruit came in contact with 90, 143 boxes
and 623 barrels of oranges and 10000
boxes of lemons. To further show the
magnitude of the foreign fruit. business,
the bulletin. gives a list of steamers due.
to arrive at the ports above mentioned
during this month with 100000 boxes
OF oranges and 107 900 boxes of lemons,
and they have been coming in at thesame
rate for the past two or three months.
1t is easy to see what effect this large
quantity OF fruit thrown upon the mar
ket, in connection with our own fruit, will
have-it will necessarily increase the
supply in excess of the demand, and in
like proportion decrease the price of the
fruit And still there are some people
who say that Florida orange growers do
not need or deserve tariff protection on
oranges
