''Will you please let me know through

a number of trees six years old but as
yet there are no signs Of fruiting although
the trees have made good growth"
We confess we have never heard Of an
olive tree bearing in Florida, although
we know that many were planted few
years ago. The ordinary olive fruits, in
the Mediterranean region, in about seven
years from the time the cutting is put
in the ground. When the trees are
started from the seed the age of the first
fruit is considerably heightened. For
this reason propagation from cuttings is

EDITORIAL CHAT.

The Florida department of Agriculture
is publishing the proceedings OF the State Horti-
cultural Society at it's first meeting in it's official
organ, the Bulletin. After it has gone through
the Bulletin in several forms it will be published
in book or pamphlet for gratuitous distribu-
ton.
The backbone of summer is broken and
in a very short time Florida will awaken from
her dullness and things will hum. The market
ing of several million boxes OF oranges is no
small job, and our people have little time to go
af1shing from the time the fruit ripens until it is
harvested and sold
The legislature of Florida adjourned
about three months ago after enacting numer-
Gus new laws and repeating old ones, but how
many citizens OF the common wealth actually
know the laws of the State? Not one in thou
sand, as the laws have not yet been published,
and will never be published il way to fall into
the hands of the people. They should be printed
in the newspapers of the State.

CALIFORNIANS AWAKE.

Our California co-laborers are fully
awake to the situation and the many
benefits to be derived from cooperation
The past season with them has been a
most disastrous one, and after duly
considering the matter, looking into the
future from every possible standpoint,
the orange growers of that State decided
that their only hope of salvation was in
cooperation.
The Rural Californian says there
seems to be no letup to the conviction
among the growers of citrus fruits that
cooperation is their sole salvation, and
organizatio goes merrily on. Up to
the present time, says that paper, about
forty associations have been formed con-
trolling nearly 80 per cent. of the crop
ing sufficient capital to enable growers
to successfully handle their crops is
largely solved in the fact that since each
organization practically controls the
crop of the section it includes within it's
jurisdiction, it is in position to secure
sufficient advances from the local banks
to bring this about, and thereby prevent
the intervention of the shippers except
on conditions favorable to the organiza-
ton. 1t is to be hoped, says the Califor-
MAN, that the present effort will exhibit
better staying qualities than has been
the general result of similar undertake
ings in the past. The experience of the
season just about to close has been so
disastrous to the growers that it is fair
to presume that strenuous effort will be
made among producers to maintain q
unity of action all along the line. This
once accomplished, we believe the result
will be SO satisfactory that the present
careless and unsa tisfactOry manner will
never be allowed to gain a foothold
again. An injury to one must be an in
jury to all. Speedy and decisive action
is imperative.
The Florida orange growers have never
made an effort at organization for prac-
tical purposes. The nearest they have
come to it is the Fruit Exchange, and
the Exchange is not in touch with vast
majority of the orange growers. True,
at one time we had the Orange Growers
Union, but this could hardly be called
business organization. 1t did some good
by increasing the business of the Ex
change, but went to pieces before it had
accomplished any great amount of good.
We hope that at no distant day our
orange growers will do as have the orange
growers of California-awake to the
necessity of standing together and work
ing together.

A PATRIOTIC SUMMARY.


his great speech in the United States
senate on the silver question, but they
must admit that his estimate of our
great nation is patriotic one, and which
causes thrill of pride to course through
our veins. Senator Voorhees, pleads for
the laboring man, the great American
farmer who has made the greatest nation
on earth. So long as these sturdy, hon
est farmers who have accomplished this
great end are with us and are given the
chances they deserve, the confidence Of
the American people ina our country and
our government will never be shaken,
and this confidence at home will beget
confidence abroad. Those who gloat
over the misfortune Of others may for
time weaken this abiding faith by hoard
ing the currency of the nation in their
vaults, but the faith will be weakened
only for period-it will yet show Itself
stronger than ever before and will tri-
umph over the enemies of our country's
credit.
In Senator Voorhees, speech in the SEN
ate Wednesday he said that the Ameri-
can credit was better to-day than that of
any other country on the globe and even
cowardly capital seized upon our bonds
with swift greed. Investors of capital
complain that the administration had
refused to issue at least three hundred
million more bonds. This additional in
debtedness increasing the burdens Of
American labor would be hailed with the
keenest delight and swept with avidity
into unpatriotic vaults by the very par
ties who most loudly declaim against the
government credit. There were many
reasons why our credit should be stronger
now than ever before. 1t rested upon the
absolute unity of purpose of the Ameri-
can people that it should be upheld. No
one but political mailman could deem
political contest in this country ever
again possible on the line of sectional ami
mostly. The public credit of every Euro
pean government was increasingly threat
ened with coming wars. The financial
resources there were constantly threat
ened by vast standing armies and per-
manent navies; but throughout the wide
earth there were none to modest us or
make us afraid of war or rumors of war.
Alone, as it were, the colossus of the
western hemisphere and towering up in
isolate power and glory, our limitless
material resources are sometimes over
looked in summarizing the elements OF
our financial strength. The interstate
commerce of the Uniten States alone eX-
ceeded in value the entire foreign COM
merce and carrying trade of Great Brit
ain, Germany, France, Austria, Holland,
Russia and Belgium put together. The
DEVELOPMENT of internal resources of the
wealth on the farm, in the factory, on the
rivers, on the ocean borders, In the
mountains and on the inland seas dwarfed
into insignifcance the achievements OF
any other age, race or nation. Legisla-
ton had checked out foreign trade and
we had not to-day a commercial friend
in the world. For every law that we en-
acted denying to foreign productions a
place in our markets and declining COM

The Wisdom of Fools.

Youths Companion.
Folly, in the abstract, has been
denounced alike by Scripture and
ancient heather sages.
''If | wish to look at fool" says
Seneca, 81 have not far to look.
have only to look in a mirror"
The Emperor Macmillan dis
tinguished the dulleSt of his cOun-
selors by the title of the King of
Fools. Once when he addressed a
prosy adviser by this title the
gentleman neatly enough replied !:
81 wish with all my heart | We're
King CT Fools; | should have a
glorious kingdom, and your I'M
perial Majesty would by among my
subjects"
The term fool is often misap-
piled. Thus Charles the Simple
was no fool, but man of eXtraor-
binary simplicity and strength of
mind and feeling. So Homer,
when he called Telemachus Il fool,
or silly, did not empty the word
as term OF reproach, but of endear-
ment.
The court fool, or jester, was for
merly an important person in the
households of kings and princes.
His influence over his master was
considerable, and many clever say
ingS of fools are still in existence.
Charles the Simple had a jester
named Jean, who one morning
tried his masters nerves by rush
ing into his room with the eX-
clamatiOn: "Oh, sire, such news
-Four thousand men have risen in
the city,
"What ~ cried the startled King
with what intention have they
riSpn?"
"Wcll," responded the jester
"probably with the intention OF
lying down again at bedtime"
Although there were many eX-
ampleS of the license which testers
We're allowed, instances are not
wanting Of their delicacy and
courage. For example, when the
fleet Of Phillip was captured or de-
strOycd by that of Edward ILL.,,
there was no one at court bold
enough to communicate tidingS of
the disaster to the King except a
court fool.
Going into the Kings chamber,
the fool began muttering: "ThOse
cOwardly Englishmen! The chick
en-hearted BritOnS ~
GLOW so, cousin: How SOP
asked Philip.
"Why, because they have not
courage enough to jump into the
sea, like your French sailors, who
went headlong from their ships
leaving those to the enemy who
