Editor Florida A gricuIturist:

Editor Florida Aericuturist:
Some months since | read in your
paper discussion on "Wind Breaks" by
r. Franck, subject I am interested in
and one l would like information on.
What kind of tree will grow the quick
est and largest, be hardy and at the same
time handsome?
With us the water oak grows fastest Of
any, except the pine.
/ have heard that the ''Grevella Ro-
busta' or Australian oak grows very fast,
and is handsome in foliage, but do not
know as to what height it attains. The
cedar does we'll for low windbreak, I'M
der or between other trees, but grows
slow and is not tall enough.
[ saw an account of date Palm,
grown at Braidentown that bears fruit
in three years, but am not informed as
to height Of tree, if a fast grower and
tall it might make good hedgeor wind
break.
A number Of years ago, when discuss
ing this question in an agricultural club,
a neighbor planted row Of yellow pines
and row of red cedars on either side
through his grove, and they now form
dense hedge, thirty to fifty feet high; he
also put out some spruce pines in like
manner with about the same result but
the latter are liable, as they become tai
Ter, to be blown over
Let us hear from others on the above
varieties of trees, and others suitable for
the purpose. E. n. WALDRON.

bid Tor factories though they could we'll
afford to offer a liberal bonus. 1t is pos
sible that there are locations in South
Florida better suited to canning factory
than DeLand and we would suggest that
the people of the places, where there is
an abundance of fruit and vegetables
correspond with Mr.. Bissell at Guy,
Wash. 1t would be we'll in this connec-
ton to inform him as to the amount of
bonus in land and money that would be
given for the location of the factory, also
the estimated yield OF fruits and vegeta-
bles in the section contiguous to the
proposed site OF the factory.
We are not prepared to say that it
would pay to raise fruits and vegetables
in Florida exclusively for canning, but
in every fruit and vegetable section OF the
State there is time, after the regular
marketing season has closed and prices
have reached such a low ebb that it is no
longer profitable to ship to distant mar
kets,-when canning factory would
prove God-send to the producers, for
the factory would utilize the surplus.
1t will pay the vegetable growers es-
pecially to consider this matter, and in
combination with the fruit growers make
proposition to Mr.. Bissell or anyone
else who is the least inclined to establish
canning factories.

THE JACKSON SIDE SHOW.

The AGRICULTURIsT, unlike many of
the Florida journals, has not felt dis
posed to 'pitch in" to Arthur G. jack
sons administration of Florida S alleged
interests at the Worlds Fair, for the
reason that all along it has looked upon
Mr.. JacksOns fort and his little side
shows as private enterprise. 1t con-
demned the idea of erecting fac simile
of this old relic Of the dark ages and
labelling it Florida building giving the
people of the world an idea that we were
living in the past and feasting only on
our tradition. We thought it was bad
policy for an enterprising State like
Florida to take as model for it's State
building an old fort erected by semi-bar
barians centuries ago. But as Mr.. Jack
son built the fort with money borrowed
from private parties, we thought he
should be allowed to run his little side
show to suit himself OF course when
he treads upon the rights Of others and
brings the good name of the State Tin
dust to the ground" it is high time to
call halt We still await with impa-
thence Mr.. Jackson's reply to the charges
made against him. If the reply does not
come soon, we will presume, of course,
that he has no defense to make.

A BETTER DAY WILL DAWN.
vantage

No little uneasiness is felt in Florida
as elsewhere as to the ultimate outcome
of the present financial condition of the
country. The fear is expressed that the
tightness in money matters will interfere
with the movement Of the orange crop.
This feeling we regret to say is so preva
lent that many orange growers are likely
to dispose of their fruit at a sacrifice or
at least for price considerably below
it's actual value.
We have very much more hopeful
feeling. Whatever may have been the
cause-whether it was the Sherman
Silver law, the fear of tariff tinkering, a
com bination Of millionaires to suppress
the circulation, drain the gold from the
treasury and force the issue of new bonds,
we have an abiding faith in the patriot
ism and the intelligence of our people.
these people now celebrating in congress
called together for the express purpose
Of devising means for our relief-will
not be derelict in their duty. We believe
partisanship will be oyershadowed by
patriotism and that the representatives
will act for the good Of the people.
Our country and our people are all
right. 1t is the finances that have gone
awry and we believe that we are strong
enough and smart enough to remedy
this
A little patience, little more conf
dence and a steady nerve is what we
must pray for now, and we will soon see
the dawn of better day.

Save Your Hay.

Enough ebay" is now growing in this
county, says the Madison Recorder, to
supply hall the State of Florida if it was
mown and cured, and we are glad to see
some OF our farmer friends directing more
attention to this necessary crop that ma
ture so bountifully lavishes upon us.
Perhaps if the facts as now exist were
fully laid before them they would turn
more attention to storing this valuable
ruffage away, and thereby save money.
A very great storage is reported in
Europe, and there is therefore demand
for the American product. In conse-
quence hay will be high tie world over
next winter.
In England there is almost no hay,
and the condition is scarcely any better
on the continent. A drouth of hundred

ALTHOUGH "these' were admitted to
be the "tightest'' times Florida has known for
years. hundreds of her people were able to visit
the great exposition at Chicago-and spend
thousands of dollars. We venture the assertion
that more people who till the soil for living
went to the Fair from Florida than from any
other State with the same population.
