Effects of the Freeze in Jackson
County.

There were some very unusualfreaks in
our March freezes. All vegetables except
cabbage and onions were nearly swept
out of existence, and such fruit blossoms
and young fruit as had put in anappear
ance speedily disappeared. The peach
and lie Conte pear trees fortunately were
not as early in blooming as usual, but
the prospect, even now, for half a crop of
fruit is very slender.
| have twenty-five or thirty banana
plants and not one is killed, and one of
them is Cavandish. They had no pro-
lection whatever. l have also eight or
ten young orange trees, one of which was
in bloom. The loss of foliage and new
growth is the only injury they sustained,
while Tangerine buds put in last July are
not hurt in the least-not leaf is curled
even, and they had no more protection
than the others, all being on the south
side OF a large house.
Flowers suffered a good deal, but it is
astonishing how many are come into
bloom since the cold snap. The farmers
are not very much set back. as most
crops that had been planted were not
above ground, though some corn had to
be planted over. Irish potatoes were
demolished by the wholesale. Gardens
have been planted and everything is
growing nicely again. We will only be
few weeks late and so are not very much
injured by the cold wave. T. B. c.

How to Plant Cucumbers in the Home
Garden.

Make shallow trenches as for celery,
five feet apart, and drill the seeds three
or four inches apart. Between the rows
plant three rows of radish seeds. The
radishes will come before the cucumbers
will need the ground. Protect against
bugs by taking two pieces of siding twelve
or sixteen feet long. Place the pieces on
edge eight or ten inches apart, with thick
edges up, and to these nail strip of
mosquito netting. Then place one of
these boards on each side OF the row and
close up at the ends with brick or pieces
OF boards. These protectors may be pre-
served from year to year more conven-
iently than boxes. At q proper time, the
plants are to be thinned down to ten or
twelve inches apart, and in hoeing, the
ground may be drawn up to the plants.
The objection to the plan is that the four
four or five plants in a HILL each with it's
several branches, make a huddle of fif-
teen or more branches in small compass.
With Elephants ten or twelveinches apart
there is no such crowding, and each plant
has o broader field for obtaining it's
nourishment.-S. d. Newbro.

Florida's Misfortunes.

draWal of the commission to Northern
ticket agents by the railroad companies,
some six years ago; and in spite OF the
disaster that followed, in the Inaugural
ton, by Cook & Co., World Travel Co.,
and other agencies of the California
boom, still persevered in, by the said
companies, DETECTING the tide OF tens Of
thousands ofpersons, and many hundreds
of thousands OF dollars from our State,

so desirable as our own, and three times
as far, at but little greater costfor trans
portation With the commission restor-
ed an active friend instead of an enemy
of Florida, placed in every ticket office
in the North, effor,s would be made to
send travellers to Florida, instead OF as
now, discouraging them from coming
here. Parties huying tickets for Florida
in Northern ticket Offices, can better ap-
preciate the truth of the above state
ments than Southern railway managers.
The past season, it was claimed that the
California boom was 'Dusted," and Flor
ida travel would exceed it's old time vol
ume. But here we are. Hundred OF thOus-
ands of dollars in3estedin hotels, with few
exceptions, are not paying expenses, let
alone interest on investment. Travellers
can be brought to Florida, per mile, as
cheaply as to California, and with all the
Northern ticket agents working up the
travel, who are now working for Califor-
MIA, hundreds of thousands would be en-
toying a winter home in Florida in place
of tens of thousands. [ wish, Mr.. Editor,

greater drawback than the railway COM

Florida has had yellow fever. Yes, but
it is hardly so dread a disease, nor half
as fatal, as diphtheria or typhoid fever,
and it is doubtful whether yellow fever
will again visit us i'll epidemic form. Ii
so, it is no more destructive than La
Grippe.
But Florida had a freeze in 1886 that
killed orange trees. Once in fifty years.
Guess she can stand it, that is longer than
most of us live. And she had another in
the present month that destroyed the
hopes OF vegetable gardeners and the own
ers Of some groves The last freeze was
a disaster but it has taught the people
where to plant their orange trees. Low.
fiat lands are not nearly SO secure from
frosts as high, rolling pine land. About
Interlachen, on high pine land, with nc
protection from forests, the orange trees

The President evidently values the
preconcerted Democratic attacks upon
Senator Quay for about what they are
worth, as within the past forty. eight
hours Mr.. Quay has been cordially
received at the White House and his
advice asked upon several important
state matters. The principal cause of
the Democratic dislike of Mr.. Quay
is fear of him as a political manager.

there will be no delay in the Senate,
as the Senate Finance committee has
already begun work on the bill so as
to be prepared for it when it passes

The President has procured copies
