freight to the markets of this country is
an average of fifty-seven cents per box
the Italians pay twenty-five cents freight,
but also twenty-five cents duty; thus it
is seen thathe still has the F'inside track"
on us seven cents so far. But this isnot all,
he pays twenty-five cents per day for
labor, while we pay $1.25; now, if we
have duty of 81 per box put on his or
anges, we are still seven cents behind the
Italian in competition on the markets of
the United States. Give us fair chance,
is all we demand, or, in other words,
as Mr.. Matthew, of Citra. lately wrote to
one Mr.. Earl through the Rural Califor-
nian, ''The average yield in this country
is 200 boxes per acre, which, at rs cents
per box, is $14 in favor of the Italians
the cost of labor in this State is $1.25
per day, it will require ten men to care
for 100 acres, or 5000 per year. To
care for 100 acres in Italy costs $500
ten hands at 25 cents per day-making
1924 per acre in favor of the foreigner;
now add $14 difference in freight and 1874
difference in cost of labor, and there is
$34 per acre against us.
We must have fairprotection.

Propagating Grapes.
VIM. P. NEELD.
Pinellas, Fla.

The advantages of prOpagating grapes
by layers are sufficient to make this meth
oda popular one. 1t is a very simple pro-
cess of increasing the number of plants,
and many amateurs can make a success
of this method where they would fail if
they attempted the more difficult and su
perior modes. Larger specimens of many
kinds of plants can be obtained by layer
ing than by cuttings. The process is a
certain one, and the plants will bear
transplanting comparatively cheerfully,
without suffering much injury.
This method is probably the Oldest in
existence, for Nature herself uses it for in
creasing the number of her wild grape
vines. In almost any swamp this fact
can be verified. Whenever the canes
come in contact with the ground, they
throw out roots and thus form layers. To
hasten this work, however, we have but
to bend one of the canes down and cover
it's joints with dirt This is the rough
mode of performing the work, but to do
it more scientifically and, consequently,
more successfully, it will be necessary to
take more pains. The vines that are
grown for layering should be planted
about six feet apart. The long branch
that is intended for layer should be
taken, and an incision made on the under
side just below the bud. After cutting
the wood little way, the knife should be
run up several inches through the heart
OF the branch, forming long slit. The

branch is then fastened in the ground at

is to prevent the downward flow of sap.
Girdling the stem by removing the bark
is another way to expose the albumen to
the soil.
The proper timeforpropagating grapes
by layers is when the parent plant is
growing rapidly, SO that roots may
be made readily. The time is thus varia-
BILE, and with same varieties any time of
the season will answer. Usually, however,
layering should not begin until after the
leaves have fully expanded and the new
growth is fully under way. Some varie-
ties can be layered earlier, but with most
of them the plants will bleed, and the
sap that flows from the wound will cor
rode and prevent further growth. The
sap that exudes from the wounds of any
tree or plant usually forms coating
around the cut, and effectually prevents
roots from starting. Pines, spruce and
other conifers are thus always layered
when the sap is flowing the thinnest, al
though rapidly. G. S. WALTERS.

The Tariff Motion Left Out.

Mr. VIM. p. Neeld has addressed the

E. O. Painter, Secretary of the Florida State Hor-
ticulturaI Society:
DEAR SIR: have seen nothing in the

ing touching the matter of tariff Our
society acted in this matter, plainly urg-
ing our Representatives in Congress to
work hard for the enactment of an or

support of our plea, / would remind our
servants in Washington that we are be-

sum, more familiarly known as land
plaster, is an exceedingly good absorbent
and can be used with the very best effects
in composing. Nothing can be gained
in the adding to compost heap by US
ing lime or ashes therein, except as it in
creases the amount over what would be
produced by sowing them directly on the
land, excepting SO far as they help to de-
compose, and then, as said before, it
should only be used with large amounts
of absorbing materials.

Tariff Reform-Tarif on Oranges Not
Wanted.

| notice in other Florida papers, and
occasionally in yours, articles advocating
increase of tariff on oranges.
The great want of orange growers is
cheap and rapid transportation. Reduce
the tariff on steel rails, copper, canvas,
cordage, timber, machinery, and every
thing in the make up of an ocean steamer
Then we should reasonably demand and
we should get cheap and rapid transpor-
tation. Then oranges would be sold at
a profit to the producer, and the millions
could afford to eat them. Raising the
tariff would restrict the consumption to
the wealthy, decrease sales and give no
better margin to the producers.
