The Use of Paris Green.

The Commissioner of Agriculture for
the State of Louisiana has issued the fol-
lowing instructions to farmers as to the
VIE Of poison for the destruction OF cotton
worms. which will be Of interest to cot
ton producers in this section OF coun'
try: ,,;.o
Paris green, London purple and white
arsenic. all compounds OF arsenic are
used for the destruction OF TINS pest
Since all the above ere poisonous 70 man
and beast, they must be handleo Win
great care and caution. =,
The almost unanimous OPINION OF
farmers and planters is that ofthe above,
Paris green is by far the best poison. l,
ia nsed in three ways: First, in liquid
SUSPENSION ; mix one pound of ,pulver
ized Paris green with forty gallons o.
water. and put this on one acre by anc
with large watering pot or from the
barrels placed in wagon BY, use OF spra!
pumps. In either case the mi4.uit
must be kept well stirred, since farll
green is not soluble water, but is helt
mechanically suspended; a little noul
lust soured in bucket of water and ther
added to the mixture gives 1t greater
Second. Dry, mixed with some de de
luent as cheap -four, yellow ochre, tint
clay, plaster or ashes. A little dextrln
is sometimes added to increase adhesive
ness. One pound OF Paris green l
mixed with twenty-five pounds OF tn
deluent.
This mixture, used during shower.
weather, is sifted over the plants ane
hand through coarse sieves: .
Third. The finely ground Paris gree
is busted from an oblong sack, made Q
coarse muslin, attached to the END Oh :,
long pole carried by man on horsebacl
In this way it is easily and cheaply dl'
tributed the only objection is that, a
ordinarily performed, more Paris gree
is used than is necessary, Care shoul
be taken to keep man and beast on tn
side from which the wind is blowing S
as to avoid inhalation of arsenical dus

Granny AGRIcULTURIsr" knows it as
well as anybody. Granny" gracefully
omits, also, to speak of the enormous
demi-john traffic that is being carried on
because of ''no Saloons" Give DeLand
three or four frst-class saloons and she
will boom as she never yet has doomed.
Lake Helen Life
We know that the jug trade of DeLand
is immense, it's terrific; we have count
ed as many as forty jugs in the Express
Office at time, and the Life does as an
injustice when it says we omit to speak
of the demi-john traffic. We have re-
peatedly spoken of it and we put our
selves on record here by saying that we
believe it is getting larger and larger
every day. But as we get along so well
without saloon we believe we won't
make change just yet, thank you;
boom or no boom.

Palmyra Grove for Sale.

The celebrated Palmyra orange grove,
one mile from DeLeon Springs, one hun
dred acres; seventy-five acres in grove,
from five to nine years old; the said grove

izer required. Come and see for your
self. This grove bore 1000 boxes in
1888, 5000 boxes in 1889, and with ca
pacity of 10000 in 1890, and in FIVE years
% 900 boxes, at 81 box, will pay the
interest at 10 per cent. on quarter of a
million dollars. This grove is very cheap

THE ORANGE MARKET.

The Florida Fruit Exchange forwards
us the following review of the condition
of the orange market up to yesterday.
Until the last day or two about 20, 900
boxes a day have been going forward.
Shipments have slackened some and it
is hoped that prices can be held up to
present standard through the dull mar
ket OF the holidays. Still there is much
apprehension as receipts are still too
heavy. Those who ship during the COM
ing week will run great risk of reaching
a depressed market. Growers are urged
to hold back their fruit.
Authentic sources report $500 boxes
and 1920 cases of foreign fruit to ar
rive in our markets before January 7th.
The Valencias are fine this year and sell
we'll. They will be gone by the middle
of the month and Sicilies need not be
considered until the last of February
Those who hold back until the market
opens up after the turn of the year will
have things their own way with the
small part of the crop left and a pros
pect of steadily advancing prices through
the season.
The auction sales are slowly and surely
building up prices. Recent sales have
enabled every fruit merchant and COM
mission man TO get at least % cents
more per box for oranges than they
could otherwise have done.
Tangerines and Mandarines begin to
60 hard, the market is full of them
they are sold as dessert and decora-
-sdppIfeu down goes the price. Now the
holiday trade is over the demand is
lighter; let them go forward more slow
ly, and only large, fancy fruit in half
boxes carefully packed. There is no
sale for them in full-sized boxes.
Last quotations: Bright, fancy, $3.50
to 50 80; bright straight lines, So 25 to
So 60: ordinary, So to 1925; russets, ex-
ira, 1925 to $24O; russets, straight lines,
