Orlando. Florida.

Peento peaches should be picked soon
as full grown and before the ripening
process has set in to soften them in the
least. A Peento the least mellow will
not carry from Florida to Philadelphia.
Therefore pick them carefully just when
fully sized up, pack them very carefully
on their edges and ship by all rail fast
express. Such shipments are good for
fair price and sell quickly right along.

Picking, Packing, Shipping Peaches.


Our Florida climate has many peculiar
tiles over that of the sections the larger
portion of our people come from; and
often those not understanding these diff
ferences, are at a loss to account for
many varieties both in flower and fruit
we so often meet with here.
The strawberry plat that in Missouri
or Kentucky would ripen all it's berries
within ten days, here gives us of it's lux
uries from January to June, or a peach
tree is covered with it's beautiful pink
bloom for months at time. People are
writing me that their Bidwell and Peento
peaches are not half grown yet and they
question their being early varieties
Here where | live, my Bidwell's EARLY
planted two years ago, are to-day, May
14th, about half grown, and | shall not
expect them to begin to ripen before the
25th, while at my Tangerine place, on
the 25th of April, gathered two quarts
of Peento, and five quarts of Bidwell's
Early, and last Tuesday. the 7th, gath
cred one-half crate of PeentOs, and two
and one half crates of Bidwell's Early.
Shipped them to Philadelphia, and to-
day have returns from my commission

mer. While perfectly willing to give
any information can feel at some loss
to select what may be best for different
section from my own. Some years ago
Mr.. Stephen Powers said that vegetables
planted in unfertilized Florida soil would
come up but die of poverty | felt indig-
as almost slanderous. | knew nothing
of such soil in Florida and had lived here
nearly fifty years, but as what he said
has been practically endorsed by somany
East and South Florida writer's | am
obliged to regard it as a stubborn fact,
at least in some places.
| can tell you how we manage here, and
perhaps it may help some one to improve
their present methods. If you plant bush
for late summer you can have them all
the time, provided you plant enough of
them. If you plant long blood beets and
put salt, hardwood ashes and muck as
fertilizers they will keep tender a long
time, and friend of mine says what he
cannot use of them before they get tough
rains set in in the fall they take on new
growth, if cultivated, and are soon
as good as ever. | never have tried this
as never plant enough to leave over, for
want OF space.
Butter beans will bear until the vines
are killed by frost, if you have frost, or
until they are exhausted. If you draw
away the dirt, give a liberal watering
with liquid manure, cover again with dry
earth and they will continue to bear sew
eral weeks longer. So with egg-plants.
When mine begin to bear little stunted
fruit [ make trench about four inches
deep a sufficient distancefrom the plants,
fill up with liquid manure, and then put
in some ashes and till up again. They
take on fresh vigOr, and as long as thus
treated serve me we'll | had three plants
once that were protected by a scaffold
and they bore till March. Thinking all
danger was past the boards were re-
moved and plants killed by sudden
frost. The dwarf, as well as tall growing
okra, is good for all summer. The dwarf
for it's low spreading habit and the tall
for long bearing Tomato plants set in
the early part of July on the north side
of wall, or where they can have partial
shade and the vines kept off the ground,
will pay well. little salt in their food
is good. Cucumbers can be planted al
most any time, and if grown on a low
scaffold will not be apt to get wormy. I
put mine in drills, about two feet in the
drill, and two plants to the hill. Forked
stakes are driven down about two feet
from the drill on each side and poles laid
along, then brush or any convenient
sticks laid across and the vines come up
through and cover the frame Sweet corn
can be planted as late as the middle of
July. Bud worms may trouble it some,
but roasting ears can be had That
much written muck under your plants
will help to keep the moisture and also
keep the fertilizer from running away If
had to cultivate that soil for garden
/ should use muck, salt, ashes and cotton
seed composted. The ashes are not so
expensive to us, because we use so many
fireplaces in winter, and as we burn
great deal of oak, hickory and other
