! True, foreign oranges imported to this
country keep in good order much longer
than the Florida orange, but by reading
the digest OF the consular reports pub
lished elsewhere in this issue, the reason
of it will be readily seen-foreign oranges
are picked green, they are packed green
and they are shipped green. This appears
to us to be the secret of the process, and
we believe that the superiority OF the
Florida over the foreign orange can
partly be attributed to this fact. Flori-
da fruit is picked Gas a rule) only when it
is ripe, and foreign fruit which is to be
shipped to this country is picked only
when it is green.
In only one Or two instances do we find
in the consular reports any special plan
of curing mentioned. In India when the
oranges are picked green they are packed
in hay or straw, and in Lower California
they are packed in dry sand, where they
are allowed to remain for two months,
and the statement of the consul that
they will keep for six months after having
been taken out of the sand seems incredi-
BILE.
Our conclusions are, from the evidence
OF those who have been in the business for
centuries probably, as supplied by the
United States consuls, that there is no
way of curing oranges so that they will
keep for any length of time if picked from
the tree when ripe; that the only way to
cure oranges SO that they can be kept in
good order for any great length OF time
is to pick them when green; that our Or
anges are superior to the foreign oranges
BECAUSE unlike the latter, they are al
lowed to mature and ripen as nature in
tended they should-on the trees; and,
finally, that it will not pay us to sacrifice
the excellent reputation that Ourfr fruit has
achieved 10y attempting to follow the
methods Of the foreigners and pick our
fruit green.

THE ALLIANCE EXPOSITION.

The Farmers Alliance is making great
preparations for it's exposition, which
opens in Ocala on the LIST of next month.
The Louisville 4 Nashville Railroad has
offered to transport delegates over it's
line free, and to sell round trip tickets for
one fare to others who wish to attend.
1t is thought that other roads will do the
same.
President Rogers, of the Alliance, has
issued q circular in which he requests
that all agricultural and non-perishable
exhibits be forwarded as soon us posi-
BILE, as thedirector general desires to have
ample time to arrange and display them
in the places allotted to each county.
The managers are anxious to have every
exhibit in it's proper place and tastefully
arranged for the reception of the vast
crowd of visitors that will be in Ocala On
the opening day.
In conclusion President Rogers says:
eve want the Farmers Alliance of Flor
ida to meet and greet the farmers OF the
North and West with the finest display OF
the resources of our State ever put on
exhibition. To accomplish the grand
work before us, it requires action on the
part of every member of the Alliance in
the State. A little effort on the part OF
each sub-alliance will accomplish noble
work for our State. have faith to be-
lieve that the farmers of Florida are
ready and willing to show to the world
by the coming exposition that we live in
the paradise of the Union, and that we
are a liberal and progressive people.

DON'T MORTGAGE.

Many of the pioneers of Florida made
a great mistake in undertaking too much.
They planted large orange groves. not
knowing the amount of capital necessary
to keep up such d grove and bring it to a
bearing age In short time their means
we're exhausted and they were compelled
either to n ortgage their groves or aban
don them. OF course they preferred the
former.
What was the result? The property

FREIGHT RATES.

Elsewhere in this issue will be found a
circular from the various transportation
companies entering Florida, which an,
nOunces an increase in freight rates on
oranges of ten cents per box to New
York, Boston and Baltimore, an increase
which according to Manager Ives, OF the
Fruit Exchange, is equivalent to about
33h per cent.
OF course the orange growers will have
to submit to this eXtortion for the pres
ent, but we predict that it will not be for
long. They are becoming SO strong, nu-
merically, and we believe financially, that
it will not be long before they will own or
control their own transportation lines.
For some time scheme has been talked
OF for the establishment Of q special line
Of fruit steamers to ply between Florida
ports and Northern points by the produ-
GERS themselves. The proposition was
submitted to the Farmers Alliance at it's
State convention al Monticello a short
time ago, and we believe received the
hearty approval of the order and many
pledges OF patronage and support.
Railroads, and in fact all transpOrta-
ton lines are important factors i'll the
development of Il country, and our read
ers for the past seventeen years will testi-
fly to the fact that the AGRICULTURIsT is
not of that class which kicks" and abuses
transpOrtatio companies upon the least
provOcatiOn, or when, like many, it has
nothing else to do. We have often de-
Tended the railroads when many were dis
posed to abuse them, knowing we'll the
difficulties under which they lAbored, but
in this case we do not, we are not looking
for an excuse for them, and if we we're we
do not think we could find one. 1t
strikes us thatif thesteamship companies
can transport oranges from the Mediter-
ranean to New York for 30 cents per box
our steamboats, and railroad companies
could certainly do it for the same price,
at least from Florida to those ports.
These corporations have doubt
less heard that the Florida orange grow
ers expect to realize better price for
their fruit this year than ever before, and
with their accustomed generosity (?) they
step up and ask for a share OF 1T.
We are glad to say that the Florida
railroads are not parties to the transac-
ton, and their rates will remain the
| same.

CURING ORANGES.

The idea prevails to avery great extent
among our orange growers that there is
some process, secret or otherwise, by which
oranges grown in foreign countries are
cured, SO that they will keep in good or
der for a much longer period of time. than
the oranges packed and shipped by the
Florida growers.
This idea is apparently erroneous.

OPIUM IN FLORIDA.

W. W. Winthrop, M. d., of Hardeville,
Fla, publishes in an exchange the follow
ing concerning the production of opium
in Florida.
We must admit that the statements
made by the Doctor appear very unreal
sonable. If peoples will produce money
crop of $4,000 per acre, why in the world
don't the Doctor cultivate few acres of
them. However, we publish the article
and offer it at it's face value, although of
course we do not vouch for the correct.
ness of the statements. The Doctor
says:
''The work is easily within the ability
of ladies to properly manage, and there
is no business known that can pretend to
yield such profitable results. 1t yields
profit when successfully conducted that
lifts it far above any other Florida indus
try. 1t is no exaggeration to state that
one acre OF peoples of the proper variety
successfully managed will easily yield from
$500 to $1,000. One lady last year in
Napa Valley obtained results equaling
$4,000 per acre. This is exceptional. but
not impossible. 1t goes to show that
there is no other agricultural industry
that can rival itwhen properlymanaged
"The seeds and the leaves are the only
parts of the poppy plant that do not
contain opium. The opium is obtained
from the rest OF the plant in this country,
while in India and Europe it is obtained
from the capsule only.
"Florida can compete with any part Of
the world in this industry. The season
for sowing in this State commences in
November and lasts till March, Seed can
be planted at any time during these
months. Those who have suitable land
already cleared should try this industry.
1t will cost but o trife; 25 cents worth of
seed will SOW half an acre. if prudentIy
used.
''The writer has spent twenty eight
years studying this industry. He will be
pleased to tell any one who will send him
poppy capsuleif it is the proper variety
to SOW There are seventeen varieties of
peoples, many of them of value only as
flowers. There is no reason why this in
dustry should not be the chief one of
Florida, for it far excells both orange and
vegetable culture in the profit it yields"
