should like to ask some questions,
make suggestion or two, and perhaps
offer some advice to those of less expe-
rience than myself in making a home in

a plant of Maule and it grew very we'll
the first year. and last season it made a
lengthy but slender growth which cut
off, and this spring it has put out a
stocky, healthy and vigorous addition to
itself. But it shows no signs of frulting.

If these experiments decide. as weeXpect whether
the blight is contagious by budding or not q
great advance will have been made in our knOwl-
edge of the maady and very likely extirpation
OF the diseased trees as they appear, which has
proved so successful against peach yellOwsin Mich
igan, will be equally valuable for orange blight.
Through the kindness of Mr.. Moore, of Ft.
Mason, near Eustis, an experiment was started
in the fall of 1892 the effect of certain fertilizers
and sprays in preventing blight Also stumps
of b1ighted trees will be budded and otherwise
treated to learn what is the most profitable way
of treating them
In tree that grows so slowly and responds
tardiy to changes in soil or fertilizers it will in
evitaby require a term OF several years before
these experiments can yield any conclusion what
ever. The foregoing sketch will serve to indicate
the lines OF research now under way at the sub
tropical laboratory word as to our needs for
the future may not be amiss, 1t is of the great
est Importance that careful and exhaustive tests
be undertaken at once to determine the kind and
quality of fertilizers needed various soils for
orange growing. Theseexperiments should con-
tinue period of at least five six years on
groves different parts of the 81 ate and be carried
on by the best talent that can be obtained. The
bearings of such an investigation would be of
the greatest Importance not only in determin-
ing the effect of the various fertilizers in causing
or preventing curing diseases, but more emf
nently practical in enabling the grower to de-
eide what fertilizers are needed for his trees
The great expense connected with such investi-
cations entirely precludes our taking them up
now, but ask the society to aid collectively
and individually in obtaining an additional APP
preparation to enable us to take up such stud
les at once. At least $4,000 would be needed in
addition to the amount received. This is
really only a small amount when considered in
relation to the value of the orange industry in
the State. Often the loss in single grove in q
single year from improper fertzing, from
diseases possibly caused thereby reaches a tenth
or even a. third of this amount.
AS are at present situated we shall do the
very best we for the horticultural Industries
of the State and ask the part of the
growers their hearty cooperation in order to
make the funds available go as far as possible
in the Investigation. In conclusion, extend
our hearty invitation to each and every member
of this society to call us at the laboratory
and see what is being done.

Ignorance Of Military Rank.

At the beginning of the civil war a
great many people were quite ignorant
of the pomp and splendor of military
rank, and the Importance Of military
titles. Their ignorance led to many
amusing incidents, one of which is told
in connection with Gen. Hardee. 1t was
at the time that Albert Sidney John
ston was in command at Bowling Green,
Ky, and Gen. Hardee was ordered with
his command to that place from Column
bus, Ky. At that time the bridge over
the Tennessee river at Danville, Tenn.
had not been completed and the general
and his command had 10 be ferried over
the river to cars on the opposite side
When Gen. Hardee had crossed the
river supposing, Of course, that spe-
cial car had been provided for himself
and his military staf-he accosted a
brakeman belonging to the train with
the question: Where shall | and my
staff go2' The brakeman, having no
idea ~ho the general was, or Of what
his staff consisted, after surveying him
and his sword thoroughly and some
what contemptuously replied. You
