Getting Down to the Staples.

The season just about closed has more
fully confirmed me in my opinion of the
value of the rice crop to the farmers of
Florida, as nearly every man that
brought rice to the mill this season has
said he should plant more the next, and
his neighbors would plant also. Itwould
seem that nearly every new settler in
Florida has heard or read OF the wonder
full crops grown here and of realizing two,
three or four hundred dollars per acre
from Strawberries or other truck crops,
and does not caretO plant any of the ordi-
nary staple crops adapted to this soil and
climate until they have tried few years
to come up to the reports they have
heard. But after few years experience
of the drouth frosts and delays and high
charges of railroads and dealing with I'M
reliable commission men, it seems to me
that there is strong and growing dispo-
sition to let ruck-farming alone and
turn their attention to the more staple
crops. OF these [ think there are none
that can be more surely and easily grown
or used in as many forms for the family
as well as for all kinds of stock as rice

Common Sense VS.. Chemistry.

Mr.. B. Sutton writing in the Ocala Free
Press very sensibly says:
When chemistry attempts to tell us
that muck is worth chemically but Is
cents per ton, think it is about time for
farmers to part company with chemistry
and try little common sense. Chemis-
try also tells us that ton of well-rotted
stable manure is worth chemically 50
per ton. Is it not strange that the only
fertilizers which have any value are those
which come to us as an article of NOR
chandise with half dozen profits added
to it's first cost; while muck, which is
abundant everywhere to be had for the
digging, is not worth the cost of hand
ling; out upon such chemistry? Let us
lay aside chemistry for awhile and try a lit
tie horse sense. | make the assertion and
am ready to be put to the proof that one
ton of muck (value chemically 70 cents),
and one ton of stable (value chemically
81 will give better results than one ton
Of twenty -n,~ Z. '0f fertilizer. | should
like to ask what governs the values of fer
t1lizers, is it the actual results obtained.
by their use, or is it their "chemicaP'
value? Ii two tons of muck and stable
manure( with a "chemicaP' value of 49, 5)
give us as good a crop as $25 worth of
commercial fertilizer, must we still bow
down to agricultural chemistry? 1t GER
tainly looks as if the farmers of America
needed little more of the horse sense of
their grandfathers, and little less chem.

Build Your Orange Grove as You Go.

The following from the Tarpon CORE
spondent of the Times-Union is worthy
Of consideration by that large class of
people who annually come to Florida
with limited means and expect to make
an orange grove and their daily bread at
the same time:
1t has been one of the serious objections
to Florida for the poor man that he had
to wait too long for returns. There is no
foundation for this assertion, unless the
poor man chooses to so manage his affairs
as to bring about such results. If he
does as many have done, and starts in
the first thing to get an orange grove,
regardless of how he is going to keep the
wolf from the door in the mean time, he
will find the orange grove quite beyond
his reach, and quite surely he will make a
failure but, on the other hand, if he
starts in to raise vegetables and make
himself self-sustaining as he goes along,
putting out a small variety of all kinds
OF fruits and vines that will contribute to
the support of his family, he will soon find
himself prospecting, and in such condi-
ton that he can each year add few or
ange and lemon trees to his possessions,
until at last he will find himself possessed
of a grove that will make him independ-
ent.
The natural way to accumulate a COM
potency is by slow degrees, and most at
tempts to win fortunes by sudden meth
DDS end in failure, and after all, it is by
no means certain that the slow way is
not the happiest one after all; it certain
ly is the surest and most likely to be re-
tanned after it is once reached.

For The FLORIDA AGRICULTURIsT
Dates.


Dates.
In answer to your correspondence
desire to know the time for planting and
tranplanting, I will refer him to the
article by sKerran" in the May 18th, num-
Der of the Florida Farmer and Fruit
Grower (who has had more experience
than y. AS others may not have access
to the American Encyclopaedia, [ will
transcribe it for the benefit of your read
ers. ''Date Palm (phenix dactylifera) a
tropical tree belonging to a genus of
about a dozen species, of which it is the
most Important; the generic name is per-
haps derived from Phenicia. The trunk
is rough, with the scars of fallen leaf
stocks, and when in wild state is eX-
ceedingly spiny from the adherent, or
persistent stalks. Although rather slow
in growth it sometimes attains a height
of 80 feet The leaves are pale green,
pinatisect bearing linear leaflets which
are more or less cOnduplicate at the base,
a popularity OF this genus, and the lower
leaflets often assume the form of spines.
A grove of young date palms is an i'm
passable jungle from the closeness and
rigidity of the leaves. The flower
spathes, which appear in the axis of it's
leaves, are woody and contain branched
spadices with many flowers; more than
II, 900 have been counted on single
maIespadix. AS the flowers are diecious,
it is necessary to impregnate the female
crop. The male spadices, are cut off
when the pollen is ripe, and carefully
shaken over the female ones. The fruit
varies much in size and quality and in
the cases of Tahara 46 varieties have
been named. In Egypt the date is an
important article of revenue as the
more than 100000, are registered. A
single tree will bear from one to four cWt
in a season. In TEXAN the fruit ripens
about the end of August. When dug it is
buried in the sand and may thus be kept
two years. AS an article of food the date
is OF great Importance; but it is consid-
cred heating, and so is seldom used on
long journeys, as it prOvokes thirst. In
their native countries dates are not much
relished in the crushed and dirty condi-
ton in which they are brought to our
markets. The stone is long and hard,
and it terminates from the centre of it's
long convex side; from the nutriment it
contains it is of use after soaking and
bruising as fodder for cattle. The date
palm is easily propagated, either by seed,
or more commonly by offshoots from the
roots, and in eight years will bear full
crop In countries where the temporal
ture does not allow the fruit to ripen,
this palm is planted both for ornament
and it's leaves, as in Northern Italy,
where the leaves are sold to Catholics for
Palm Sunday, and to the Jews for the
feast of the tabernacles. AS the date
palm grew at Jericho, it is supposed to
have been these palm branches, which
