its beautiful palms, and mum boring

of commercial attention.
For many years cocoanuts have
grown on the coast of southern Florida
but owing to an extreme fondness for
the green nuts manifested by those en-
gagged in the sponge fishing along the
coast, few nuts have been allowed to
ripen, only sufficient to demonstrate
that cocoanuts can be raised for several
hundred miles along the coast of Flori-
da, where the Gulf stream flows so
close to the shore. The cocoanut in
dustry in that vicinity has received an
impetus of late. Several northern cap
italists have gone to Florida and en-
barked in this industry, seeing Qike

past four years over 800, 900 nuts were
planted on the coast of Florida
Such nuts as are wanted for planting
are gathered into heaps, or placed
under sheds, where they are allowed to
remain until the sprout shows itself
through the husk. When planted in
regular order, holes about three feet
deep, and from fifteen to thirty feet
apart, are dug. In the hole the nut is
planted with care, and covered with
about one foot of soil. The hole is
filed gradually as the sprout grows,
until it reaches the surface, when it is
left to itself, requiring no further at
tention.
Should the place where the cocoanut
is planted be any great distance from
the seashore quantity of salt is some

Interesting Facts Concerning the Industry
in Early Times.

Interesting Facts Concerning the Industry
in Early Times.
An article published not long ago in
the Illustrirte Gartenzeitung of Vienna,
gave, on the authority of old state pa
pers, some interesting facts with regard
to the fruit culture of former times in
the kingdom of Wurtem burg. 1t seems
that the earliest mention of this indus
try is found in accounts of the destruc-
ton of vineyards and orchards during
the wars of the thirteenth and four
teenth centuries, while the first record
ed edict for their protection dates from
1915, and imposes fine on anyone who
shall cut down fruit trees, wild or cult
waited, on open grounds. Another edict,
dated 1852. declares that children
caught stealing fruit shall be punished
by their fathers, or imprisoned, or put
in baskets and dipped in the water.
That wild fruits were still largely de-
pended upon is proved by an ordinance
of the year 1866, saying that a cultivat-
or may pick up the fruit from wild
trees, but must not shake them, as
what remains on the branches must be
left for the animals. which at that
period the upper classes so greatly de-
sired to hunt. 1t appears that the
planting of fruit trees was not pre-
scribed until 1000, when the setting out
of mulberry trees was ordered. Each
grown man under the age of forty was
to plant one, and each stranger coming
to reside in the province was to plant
two on public land: and from later
edicts it appears that the fruit of such
trees could be gathered by the
planter during his life time, and
then by his widow. but that af-
ter her death they reverted to the
commune. The edict of 1885, which
declared that fruit trees must not
be planted nearer than seven feet and
nut trees not nearer than ten feet to a
neighbor's boundary line still holds
good The mulberry continued in high
honor through the eighteenth century,
for we read of an order dated 1855 which
prescribes the planting of all new roads
with two lines of these trees standing
sixteen feet apart In the following
year apple and pear trees are also
named for such service, but merely in
positions were mulberries would not
grow or bear. Only in 1892 was heed
paid to the fact that the Interval be-
tween the trees which suficed for null
berries was insufficient for the other
sorts Then a distance of twenty-four
feet was prescribed for old roads and
of thirty-two feet for new ones
In IT'S desire to maintain the repu-
tation of the vineyards which produced
the then famous Neckar wine, called
forth an order against the planting OF
