Editor Florida 4 gricuIturist:
lnyour issue of February - you stated
the secretary of agriculture at Washing
ton, had just received consignment of
choice silk worm eggs from Europe, and
would distribute them gratuitOusly to all
farms who desire to raise silk worms, and
who are so situated they can do so salts
factorily.
will inform those who wish to engage
IN growing silk that samples Of cOcoons
and eggs raised at the Spring Garden Silk
Farm, OF the crops of 1887 and 1888,
were sent to France, and they we're pro-
nounced superior to any grown there,
and the demand was so great that Miss
Douglass sent 100 ounces of eggs of 1889
crop, sufficient to grow 10000 to the
ounce; and our gOvernments should have
some of these eggs they will be No. l.
We will give free to those who wish to
engage in the business, if sober and indus
trious, two and one-half acres of land and
mulberry cuttings sufficient to plant it :;
and the second year they can make silk
We have few hundred acres of these
lands within two miles of Spring Garden,
on the Jacksonville, Tampa & Key West
Railroad, near Spring Garden postofice
and one of the best schools in thecounty;
and if silk growing can be made success
in these United States it can be done in
Florida, Mulberries grow luxuriantly,
and we have silken climate

For THE FLORIDA AGRICULTURIsT.
Give ALI the Facts.

There appears, from time to time, in
the newspapers of the State, items con-
corning extraordinary yields of vegeta-
BILE prOductions-sO many hundred bush
els to the acre, half, quarter or eighth as
the case may be-iust the mere announce
ment, chat and nothing more" No
intimation is given of the kind of soil,
method of culture or variety of fertilizers
used. Such information is of little or no
practical use. If the simple naked fact
of All uncommon yield is of sufficient i'm
pOrtance republication, then are also the
conditions under which such an end was
like house without roof-and should
be totally excluded. 1t is moreover very
misleading to the prospective settler, who,
by inference may be led to believe that
similar prolific yields are of frequent oc-
curence-rat Their the rule than the excep-
ton. Let us know in what soil and what
it costs in time, labor and material to
get phenomenal results. This is an in
quiring age: we want to know something
more than isolated facts. We desire to
know the basis upon which they are predi-
Gated, so that they may be of real service
to us, and the journal that cannot find
room in it's columns for such "abutting
evidence" as the lawyers term it, had
much better ignore the fact ITSELF
To those who are really interested in the
matter at all, the brief paragraph that
- Ohm Smith raised 800 bushels of white
potatoes on an acre OF land" causes dis
gust that no further light is thrown on
the subject. Such ex-parte reports can
be esteemed of no value without a mar
ration of the means by which the abnor-
NAL product was reached. If 1000 bush
els of onions can be raised to the acre,
tell us how it is done, or do not permit
wear and tear of type in simply putting
the lone and solitary item into print.

Grape Fruit.

1t is time that the grape fruit should
become better known and appreciated
all over the country, for there is no doubt
that, in times to come, it will rank much
higher than oranges in the general mar
kets of the world, while the production
of this delicious fruit seems to be strictly
confined to certain sectionsin South Flor
ida where the cultivation of it has only
been encouraged to a very limited ex-
tent. We know that during the month of
March, April and May a we'll prepared
dish of this delicious fruit would soon be-
come very popular dish at the lunch
counters in the restaurants up North.
The trouble now is that people do not
understand how to prepare this fruit for
table use, the bitter outside skin having
to be peeled off carefully from the flesh
