A Chinaman's Income.

A thrifty laundryman in Lewiston also
owns iaundries in Augusta, Gardiner and
Brunswick and turns, so he says, an hon.
est $50 week, which is better than the ma,
jority of his Caucasian friends who are
wont to greet him with their smiles are
able to do. The festive Chinese doesn't say
much, but he is one of the greatest busters
on the continent. He coins money, while
his American friends kick at hard times

THE word honeymoon" is traceable to
Teutonic origin. Among the Teutons was
fayorite drink, called "metheglin." 1t
was made of mead and honey, and was
like that Of the European countries.
These honeyed drinks were used more
especially at marriage festivals which
were kept up among the nobility one
lunar month, the festive board being well
supplied with metheglin. "Honahmoon"
signifed the moon or moonath of the
marriage festival. Alaric. the Goth, cele-
brated by Southey's poem, died on his
wedding night from too free indulgence
in the honeyed drink.

AN attorney and friend in Douglas
county expresses his belief that the furry
over the consolidation OF land offices was
worked up by some of the holdover re
pnblicans to direct attention from them
selves and delay action looking towards
their removal, and that he has advices
from Washington that there will be no
change in the offices Of this state. A
letter from the commissioner of the gen.
eral land office to Hon. III. j. Snively
confirms the statement that consolidation
of the land offices OF Washington was
never considered. The appropr iation for
salaries and commissions of registers and
receivers for the year ending June 30th
1894, was reduced to $4,000. The ap-
proDriation for the fiscal year ending
June 30th, 1892, was 5000, 900. Of which
1866, 900 was used, and the appropriation
for the present year is $3.50, 900, and, not
withstanding this cut, none of the repub-
lican land officers have resigned on the
score OF not being able to get their pay
from the government. There are at least
20 per cent. OF the land offices in the
United States doing less business than
the Yakima office, and when consolida-
tions are made the first Offices to be abol-
ished will be the smaller ones, where the
compensation OF the officers is iu large
mart n salary and not made from fees and
commissions.

and APPARENTLY disposed Of there and
then, so far as the ordinary shipper is
concerned, these houses protect them
selves by buying in when the market is
overstocked or abnormally low, and dis
tributing through the country at in
creased values.
To sum up, lemon growers in Italy
have all of the vicissi tudes of the Ameri-
can growers The industry is not nearly SO
remunerative as many Of our enthusiasts
tic writers would have us believe, nor is
the production of mcrchantablc fruit to
the tree, either in young or old orchards,
anything like the estimates made in Cal
ifor1ia. Only in those localities where
all of the conditions are the most favor
able does the industry pay at all.
The cheap labor of Italy makes
it possible to raise and care
for orchards at cost much below those
of America. The shipping facilities are
also so good that the markets are reached
in Is days; yet with that advantage there
are many orchards whose owners do not
realize any more per acre than is got
from good wheat lands on the Peninsula.
The lemons of Sorrento, MAORI, Minori
and Almalfi bring higher prices than
those Of Sicily. Why they do So with
some particulars Of their culture, will
have to be reserved for another letter.

Homemade Manures in South Florida.

The full development Of agriculture
in the South depends mainly upon the
farmers own efforts in providing home
made fertilizers. 1t may be quite true
that purchased fertilizers may be made
to pay satisfactory profit, but they
cost money, which is quite a scarce
thing in the South, and always will be
SO long as the farmers fail to supply their
own needs, as far as possible, instead of
purchasing everything they use. And
as they mostly buy on credit the high
interest eats up what little profit might
otherwise be made. Thus, as start in
the way he should 60 the Southern
farmer should begin by making his own
cOmpOSts from such materials as he can
most easily procure. First, he should
gather all the forest leaves he can and
pile them under his mules, belly deep;
bed his COWS and hogs with them; and if
he has some more, to mix them with
such swamp muck as he can procure,
or river mud, or mud from bitches; and
make as big pile Of these as he can
mixing lime with them and rotting the
whole mass. This compost is the fOun-
datiOn of his manure. He mixes the
litter from the stables and pens with it,
and adds wood ashes, cOttonseed hulls,
he has little money to spare, he may

my old patrons and friends calling for
mango fruit and seeds. Please allow me to say
so that all can hear that am not Sin it, this
year. The crop here is aim ost total failure.
This is the meanest "trick' that Florida has

But if you don't want to go into all the
trouble named above in preparing your
dried pumpkin for the table, put a hand
full or two of it in pot with a good sized
hunk of bacon and cook as many folks
cook snap beans BY pursuing such a
course you will have a mess that ought
to delight king.
Snap beans cVap0ratc nicely, and are
not the tough abOminatiOn that they were
when dried in the old way by being
strung on string and hung up. The
same may be said of okra. Indeed, as be-
fore stated. almost anything grown in
the garden may be evaporatcd at home
for home consumption, with entire salts
faction, including many Of the fruits.
Tomatoes are evapOratCd to dryncSS with
the skins on. Cook in the same cOndi-
ton; and when soft pass through a col
ander to remove skins and all hard pieces
Season as desired
There are plenty Of establishments
having these small cVapOratOrs for sale
at prices ranging from s. upward, but
we could not point out any Of them at
present; therefore, please don't write us
asking where the evapOratOrs might be
had-doubtless they are on sale in m ost
Of the large cities.
Referring to the offer Of cVapOratOrs re-
Gently made by the AGRICULTURIsT, the
Mobile Register says:
We have before us an illustration Of
the s. evaporation taken from cOntem-
porary, where it is offered as premium
for subscribers 1t is a small affair, Of
course, and is intended to sit upon and
receive it's heat from an ordinary cook
stove. There are seven drawers for re-
ceiving the fruit or vegetables to be
evapOratcd. The text accompanying
says Of it that with the United States
cook stove drier hundreds of dollars
worth Of fruit can be saved every year,
1t is very simple, economical, efficient
and convenient, and for farmers use
Just what is wanted, and we believe the
cheapest and best little dricr of its class
on the market"
While such an evaporation would
probably be everything required for a
small family, it would probably be more
economical to get one on a little larger
scale, with furnaces, in order to dry a
larger surplus Of products for market,
where, if properly handled, they always
find ready sale.

Evaporating Fruits and Vegetables

The modern evaporation is not the eX
pensive affair that the more ancient ar
ticle vast is cheap and simple but
does the work thoroughly and efficiently.
A few weeks ago the AGRICULTURIsT
published an illustration and description
of a good and cheap evaporator for
family use. The evaporation can be pur-
chased for a few dollars and if Judi
ciously managed will prepare all the sur
plus fruit and vegetables about place
for winter use.
We do not advise the planting Of fruit
orchards and vegetable gardens for the
sole purpose Of giving the evaporation
work, but those who have orchards ard
truck farms are aware Of the fact that
there is time when it does not pay to
send their fruit and truck to market, and
as the family cannot consume all OF it,
there is consequently a great wastagc.
The Rural New Yorker says:
All fruits are now so perfectly evapo-
rated that we are almost fain to say they
excel even the fresh fruits themselves and
by the free use Of the evaporation we can
have the kindly help of our kitchen gar
den also the whole year round.
In evaporating vegetables, take them
when in their prime, for as they are
when evaporated, so they will be when
served at table.
Almost any vegetable we grow in the
nice and made into as nice dish at any
time as when just tallenSfrom the plants
or vines. For example says the Rural,
winter sQuaShes are largely cVap0rated
in some localities, and when prepared
for table can hardly be told from those
lust taken from the vines. let them be
cut in slices, peeled and seeded, then
placed on the sieve or rack(do not bleach)
and put them in the evaporat0r When
dry they will keep indefinitely, if stored
in paper sacks tied securely. When
wanted, soak over night, or boil in plenty
of water; when soft, drain, mash and
season, the same as when fresh.
Pumpkins may be evaporated and are
very nice. Cut into slices, peel and re-
move the seeds, then evaporate. When
wanted for use, cook thoroughly, press
through colander and use, the same as
fresh pumpkins. They are equally good.
Evaporated pumpkins are sometimes pre-
pared for market by grinding them into
meal and putting this up in packages.
