1t is painful fact that the most diff
cult places in which to organize branches
of the Orange Growers Union are the
large towns and cities in the State. The
merchants and professional men do not
generally realize that their success de-
pends greatly upon the prices realized by
the farmers. Lawyers, doctors, mer-
chants, real estate and insurance agents,
newspapers, banks and every description
of business are more or less dependent
upon the farmer for their bread and but
ter. The Orange Growers Union has al
ready done more for the orange industry
than any undertaking started in the
State. Surely these men have "got the
time'' to attend to their own interests.
~
A meeting of the Peniel, Putnam county
branch of the Orange Growers Union was
held at Crowns Hall, Peniel on the 4th
inst with President j. W. Thomas in the
chair Topics of interest to orange grow
ers were fully discussed, andespecially the
question as to the best means of destroy
ing the spider pest should it again attack
the groves. A member stated that a
light layer of sulphur spread under the
trees affected in the early morning, would
kill the insect and have a beneficial effect
upon the fruit and foliage. Full conf
dence in the workings of the Orange Grow
ers' Union and Fruit Exchange was ex-
pressed by the members present. 1t is
expected that before long number Of
members will be added to the roll of the
Peniel branch, as all the growers in the
vicinity are heartily in favor of the move
ment. The meeting adjourned to the first
Monday in December.

Stand By the Union and the Agri-
culturist.

Mr. T. Russell Kennedy, corresponding
secretary of the Florida Orange Growers
Union, has issued the following card to
the orange growers of Florida:
| cannot too strongly advocate the sup
port and patronage of the orange grow
ers of the State for the FLORIDA AGRICUL-
TURIsT. This most valuable journal has
taken firm standfor the Florida Orange
Growers Union. 1t has grasped the situ-
alton thoroughly, and acting for the best
interests of the orange growers, has en-
tirely lost SIGHT of the effect which such a
firm and uncompromising position might
have upon it's own financial interests.
Consequently the AGRICULTURIsT is, finan-
cially worse off to-day for having advo-
Gated the int nterests of the growers than it
was before the Orange Growers Union
first saw light. A number of advertise
ments have been withdrawn from it's col
umns by men whose interests were op-
posed to organization of the growers.

each week will be found the latest infor-
nation on the subject of the Orange
Growers Union and the Florida Fruit
Exchange. ] will endeavor to place be-
fore it's readers all matters OF interest
upon the subject OF markets. | am well
assured that the editor of the AGRICULT-
URIsT will devote his abilities to the strong
support of the Orange Growers Union
and will consequently accumulate debt
due to him which we, as citizens of the
State of Florida, will find it difficult to
repay. Subscribe for the AGRICULTURIsT.

Information Wanted About Orange
Culture on Hammock Land.


Editor Florida Agriculturist:
Will you allow me to ask few ques-
tions in your columns for the purpose OF
obtaining information relative to the
subject of grove cultivation?
have never gone very far into the bus
mess of orange culture, and am now very
anxious to learn whatever | can and
wherever can, all about it. I therefore
appeal to you and your readers for in
formation which would be pleased to
receive through the farmers medium-the
AGRICULTURIsT.
If my grove is a young One-say five
years old-and is on low hammock, well
drained, but still sufficiently moist and
very rich, would it be well to keep it clean
If it is on high hammock or scrub and
is we'll supplied with muck, and hegrowth
of grass and weeds is quite luxuriant,
should it be kept clean from one years
end to another, i. e., clean of the vegeta-
tion that would be likely to accumulate? =?
We have some groves on level ham,
mock, just high enough to make good
trees without drainage. The land is very
rich, supplied with plenty of moisture,
and the trees grow rapidly. The soil is a
dark gray. have this grove in charge,
and would be pleased to find some way in
which [ can make it success, so that
when the lord Of the vineyard comes he
may be well pleased. Now will it be well
for me to keep the grass and weeds en-
tirely cleared away, or shall / allow a
scanty growth of grass or weeds?
Suppose the land is mari, what plan
should | follow? | know that there are
some groves where it is necessarily clean
culture or no culture, as grass and weeds
will not grow on poorly kept pine land
groves, but what [ wish to know is, how
shall succeed with grove that requires
but little rain and is constantly covered
with vegetation?
AS rule what are the cheapest and best
tools for cultivating grove? Say that
man has horse and can lay out only
$50 on tools for his grove, what would
you advise him to buy?
w. HI. MAXWELL.
We would respectfully refer the above
to our practical orange growers. 1t is
evident that if one man attempts to an
swer all of the above questions, he must
necessarily have had a varied experience
for Mr.. Maxwell desires information con
cerning almost every character of sol
known to orange culturist.
However, help him if you can, and ou1
columns will be opened to allinformation
offered.
By the way, he has very erroneous idea
concerning pine land groves. He express.
es an opinion that grass and weeds will
not grow in some of the poorly keptpine
land groves" We must confess that we
have never seen such, and doubt very
much if any such are in existence. Grass
and weeds grow on the poorest of poor
pine land.

Complaints have been received from
Pierson, Volusia county, against the rail
roads-a freight train refusing to stopfor
one hundred boxes OF oranges. If secre-
taries of local organizations will kindly
notify the corresponding secretary, steps
will be taken to avoid this annoyance by
placing car at the disposal of each or
ganizatiOn.
Representatives of the commission
houses of Snow 4 Co., of Boston; Pooter
Bros, of Chicago; Montgomery, OF Phila-
delphia, and Goodsell & Co., ofNew York,
are now in the State. They expect to buy
for cash. The orange growers must un-
derstand that they are now in position
to demand fair prices for their fruit and
to sell for cash down.
*#
The general good prices prevailing for
Florida oranges on the trees in all sec
tions of the State, and the assurance that
the crop is much larger than has hereto
fore been estimated, is great encourage
ment to our growers, and will also be
great financial relief to them, as they are
now assured, through hewOrkings OF the
Orange Growers Union, of receiving the
money for their product, which in many
cases heretofore has been withheld from
them by the consignment system.-Or-
lando Record.
Xxx
Too much stress cannot be laid upon
the Importance of taking stock in the
Florida Fruit Exchange. 1t is necessary
for the growers to control their agents,
and it is necessary that those agents
should have capital in order to be able
to make arrangements for the proper
transportation and marketing of the
fruit. If every grower in the State will
take one $40 share of stock in the Fruit
Exchange they will have $780, 900 to ex-
pend in arrangements for the best refrig-
orator cars in solid trains on schedule
time, and packing and storage houses
throughout the State.

Oranges are going forward rapidly.
Prices are good, and growers, remember
ing che adverse experience of recent years,
are eager to take advantage of this con-
dition of the market, but prices promise
to increase. Dealers are convinced that

He Stopped Here to See Some of the
Faithful, But Was Silent, Except to Say
That He Cannot Say.
United States Senator NJ. S. Quay came
to the city yesterday afternoon and went to
the Seventh Avenue Hotel. He was ac-
companied by Mrs. and Miss Quay. In thu
evening they left for Washington.
As soon as he arrived some of the faithful
called on him, and short consultation was
held in the hotel. AT the depot, last night,
a reporter had the temerity to tackle the
Senator, and the following colloquy ensued:
"what do you think of the State or
ganization of the House and Senate?''
81 haven't anything to say about that.
Chow about President Harrison's Cabi-
net?''
81 don't know anything about it. You
must ask General Harrison for the lnforma-
ton. This is pleasant weather we -"
"How does the situation in West Vir-
ginia strike your tancy?"
81 can't say anything about that, either.
Did you ever see such weather for this time
of the year? / have been rusticating at
home, and the rest has done me good. /
hope you enjoy the weather."
Here the Senator stopped and turned to
talk to Mrs. Quay. The law does not ask
any one to do impossibilities, and the re-
porter gave up in disgust. Matthew Stanley
wouldn't talk; and that settled it.

FIRST DEClSIYES STEP.

/ The Druggists VIII All Close Next Sunday,
Except for Two Hours A. NJ. and Three
Hours p. M. for Prescriptions.
The Allegheny County Retail Druggists
Association met yesterday afternoon in the
College Hall of the School of Pharmacy,
and passed resolution which may be looked
upon as the first step toward entirely clos
ing the drugstores in the future on Sun
days.
There were about 80 members of the Asso-
citation present, Mr.. Louis Emanuel being
in the chair. The Executive Committee,
which had been appointed by the President
to make personal visit to every druggist
in the two cities and get his opinion about
Sunday closing, reported that IS druggists
were in favor of the stores being closed on
Sunday, with the exception of few hours,
during which only prescription business
should be done; IA were in favor Of closing
the stores altogether on Sunday, and 30 re-
fused to agree to anything, preferring to
run their own business
"a iCsOiutlOu Was tutil OueIcu " oPcu VIC
drugstores in future, for prescription busi-
ness only, from 10 to 12 clock Sunday morn
ing and from 6 till in the evening. This
resolution was unanimously adopted, and
will 60 into effect next Sunday.
A committee, consisting of the following
named gentlemen, was then appointed to go
to Harrisburg to see that the amendment TO
the blue laws be properly presented: Messrs.
John W. Miller, c. W. Sr,art and Joseph
P. Urben, all of Allegheny, and Robert
Christie and N. Stokely, of Pittsburg.
Mr.. Louis Emanuel, the President,
speaking of the resolution passed at the
meeting yesterday afternoon, said:
That resolution is only stepping stone
toward closing the stores entirely. We did not
think 1t right to 60 at the matter in a too
abrupt way. The change would be too great.
We want to get at it gradually, and the people
will get better used to it. !, for my own part,
think it advisable to have our stores closed on
on Sunday; in fact, believe there was time
when drugstores never were open Sundays, IN
til competition brought it about The general
business of prescriptions is so slender on Sun
day that it would not pay druggist to keep
his doors open. and if the people know that we
are not doing any business at all on Sunday,
we shall simply be buster on Saturday night
and Monday morning; that is all.

Interesting Testimony in the Wishart Case,
With Its Result.

Interesting Testimony in the Wishart Case,
with Its Result.
In the case of Captain Wishart against
Joseph Baker, for assault and battery before
Alderman Carlisle, W. d. Moore ap-
peared for the defense and William Yost for
the prosecution.
Captain Wishart was sworn and testi fled
to being struck by the defendant, falling
upon one knee, and then being thrown into
the street. His assailant then ran down the
alley by the Bakewell Building on the
Diamond.
He described the man as tall, powerfully
built. with sandy mustache, and when
Baker was put before him, Wishart testified
he was the man.
E. P. Douglas, stated on December 81,
he saw two men fighting on the Diamond,
and that the tall man with sandy mus
tache suddenly ran down an alley. He
recognized Captain Wishart, and said the
other resembled the defendant Other un-
important witnesses were examined and
Baker was held for court in 81, 900 bail.
1t took Baker just Is minutes to secure
the necessary bail, prominent city con-
tractor pledging himself for the necessary
81 900. w. d. Moore delivered an opin-
ion on Law and Order, and its methods that
will probably be repeated in court at the
proper time.

ALARMINGLY PLENTIFUL.
Twenty-Five Bright Bland Dollars Passed

twenty-five Bright Bland Dollars Passed
on a Single Cashier.
Counterfeit silver dollars are getting
alarmingly plentiful. no less than % of them
being passed on one Northside street car
line in one day within a week. 1t is said
that many of them are put under powerful
machinery, which makes the milling almost
perfect, and they are electro-plated, SO that
they feel and ring so nearly like the genuine
coin as to be difficult to detect, except by
experts.
This counterfeiter received change for his
spurious coin on the Manchester, Rebecca
street, Troy Hill, Pleasant Valley and
Transverse lines. His plan was to jump on
the front end of car and casually remark
to the driver that he only intended to ride
short distance, when the driver would
promptly ring the bell to call the attention
of the conductor The latter would come
forward and the stranger would invariably
hand him silver dollar of 1885. getting o.
or 90 cents change. He worked on the Man.
chester, Pleasant Valley and Transverse
lines.
If you are not judge, be very careful in
the acceptance of what purports to be the
bright buzzard dollar.
