Editor Florida Agriculturist:


There is slight difference in opinion here in re-
gard to how long, under favorable weather. it
takes the following vegetables to bear Please
tell us about how many days from the seed f9
egg plant, tomatoes, HendersOns early cabbage
cukes, Valentine beans. j. l. W.
Haines City, Florida.
Egg plants, if well cared for, should be
ready to transplant in from thirty to
forty days from planting of seed, and will
take about eight weeks to mature fruit.
Tomato plants can be transplanted in
four to five weeks and will be ready to
gather in nine to ten weeks. Early cab
bage will mature in about two months
from the time of transplanting Cucum-
bers take from seven to nine weeks to make
good marketable "cukes" Valentine
beans require from six to eight weeks. A
great deal depends upon how the vegeta-
bles are cultivated and fertilized as to the
time of their reaching maturity. They
can be pushed or retarded, as the garden
er manipulates them.

The movement among residents Of East Wash
ington to establish national bank in that par
of the city, referred to in TIE STAR, took form
last night at meeting held in Washington hall,
corner OF Sd street and Pennsylvania avenue.
Mr.. John E. Herrell presided and Mr.. Allan
Clark acted as secretary. The meeting was at
tended by many Of the business men and resi-
dents of East Washington, and a number
described the inconvenience they suffered by
having no bank located within q convene Mt
distance. A resolution, offered by Mr.. T. W..
Smith, was adopted directing the chairman ''to
appoint a committee Of seven, of which the
chairman shall be one. to be selected from
the subscribers to the stock of the proposed
national bank. which committee shall take the
necessary measures to obtain such further
amount Of subscriptions to the capital stock as
may be required by law and any other proceed
Ings needing to perfect the organization OF said
bank" The following were appointed as the
committee: John f. Herrell, j. W. Whelpley,
Allen c. Clark. H. c. McCauley, George +.
Pyles, John G. Slater and Samuel II. Walker.
1t was decided that the capital stock of the
bank should be 100000. in shares Of 800 each.
Those interested in the organization of the
bank purpose, as far as possible, to establish it
by popular subscription getting as many peo-
pie possible interested in the success of the
institution. A STAR reporter was informed
to take up all the stock remaining when full
opportunity had been given all who desired to
take stock in small blocks. The talk Is that the
bank will be located in the vicinity Of Sd street
and Pennsylvania avenue, and suitable build
ing will be erected for it there.
