A Law Against Razorbacks.

Editor Florida AgricuIturiSt:
In your issue of the 1 1th inst. you have
an article headed ga County Option
Fence Law" think it would be a mis-.
take to agitate for a law of this kind, as
what's really most needed is there's traint
of the free range of hogs. There is no
doubt that even were @ nO-fence law
passed in any section, very few people
would care to have theirgroves standing
out inthe piney woods without any fence.
Ii this be the case, and the orange grow
ers are going to have their groves fenced
anyhow, it would surely be pity to lose
the benefit which could be obtained by
having cattle on the unfenced land.
Another objection to trying for no.
fence law is that many who would gladly
vote foranO free range of hog law would,
ii it lay between a fence or no-fence law,
vote for the former rather than lose the
range for cattle. This was strikingly
demonstrated in our section, which is not
really a cattle section, when some years
since two petitions were carried around
for signatures, one for restraining hogs
and the other for a nO-ience law. The
former received many signatures, thelat-
ter hardly any. Personally, though l
have no cattle, would vote against
no-fence law, and am satisfied that this
is the sentiment of very large majority.
There is no objection to law being made
to allow sections or counties to vote for
or against fencing out cattle, but that
should not affect the hog question. Let
us vote on them separately.

"There is nothing like ocular demonstration
in a matter like this. You see how the sides OF
the boxes of that Red Cross brand, in front OF
us bulge out between the hoops? They are ex-
ira thick Bangor sides, too, but the boxes are
packed tightly that the sides fairly stick out.
The average weight of the fruit in this warehouse
is below ninety pounds to the box, most OF it
eighty-five pounds. Lay one OF these on the
scales, it tips the bar at ninety-eight pounds.
you see. Itcontains from ten to fourteen pounds
more oranges than the other fruit. Now open q
box, of course it is sized evenly and graded cor
rectly, and has no blemished fruit in the No.
brands, but it is the handling and particularly,
the sorting, would call your attention tO-nOt
q bruised orange, broken, cut plugged
weak creased skin in the box. Fruit handled
sorted and packed like that, won't rot
"Does it pay? Just step back and observe the
buyers for few moments. The average price of
this class of fruit to-day is about So. Note how
eagerly those dealers contend for the Red Crosslo
at $3.50 and how reluctantly that Dago pays
$3.50 for the slack farmer pack'-no difference in
the quality-all alike except the way it has
been handled, sorted and put up"
Nov I happen to know the history of that
Red Cross fruit. IN fact, the brand is known
throughout the country. The owner of that
fruit has annual crop of from 1000 to 1000
boxes. He averages fifty cents box more than
his neighbors on account of the superiority of
his pack (Which is guarantee againstloss by rot).
His crop is put up under his own eye, he has no
packing house and no new tangled facilities. One
end OF a small barn, an old-fashi0ned sizer, and
polishing brush constitute his outfit.
Il don't mean to disparage a good packing
equipment, but the fact that the shipper is with
out it cannot be made valid excuse for poorly
put up Fruit
"Wlll L not prepare set of packing instruc-
lions for publication? l really do not think l
could make any valuable additions to what has
already been published the subject. No che
go far astray if he follows the instructions
given in the "Orange edition of the AGRICULT-
URsT for December, 1891. In fact, shipper will
put his fruit UP about right if he will bear in
mind that the buyer in determining the value of
his fruit considers three things, in order as fol-
lows, namely: sOuudness fuHneSs, appearance
That's all there is in it. To be sound, the fruit
must be handled just like eggs and the sorting
must reject every orange that might by any pos
stbility rot. To remain sound, the boxes must
be plumb FULL packed tight las you go. This
requires that the sZer be set to pass the largest
possible fruit that can be pressed into q given
count. The packers are doing much better in
the matter OF appearance than in soundness and
fullness The first requisite is that the grades
run uniform as marked With fine fruit, fancy

Ths state Board OF Assessors.

The bill repeating the Act of 1891,
creating State Board of Assessors
and Equalization has passed both
houses and gone to the Governor for
his approval. AS the Governor was
opposed to the Act two years ago and
the people demanded its repeal by the
present Legislature the bill doubtless
will receive his approval.
We fully agree with the Reno Jour-
nal in the statement that the Act had
some good features but they were over
balanced by Objectionable ones. The
clause empowering the Board to in
crease or reduce, at his discretion, the
valuation of property of the real value
of which it had no knowledge, was
rcpugnant and unjustifable. The
people were unanimously opposed to
the 'shorizontal raise" feature of the
Act and mainly on that account de-
manded its repeal. If they made a
mistake it is not the fault of the MEM
bers of the Legislature as they only
obeyed the wishes of their constitu-
ents in repeating the law. All con-
cede the justice as well as the neces-
sity for State Board of Equalization,
while only very few could be made
to believe that the clause authorizing
the Board to assess property of the
value of which they had no knowledge,
was either just or necessary.

There was good bill defeated in
the Assembly yesterday. 1t provided
that county officers should be elected
for four instead of two years. If the
terms of all of the county officers were
four years they could afford to serve
for considerably less than when only
elected for two. We believe, however
that the constitution fixed the terms
of all of the officers mentioned in that
instrument to two years, and it is only
the ones that were created by the legis-
lature that body can fix the terms of.
There could certainly have been no
other good reason for defeating the
bill. Reno Gazette.

Washington dispatches say that a
treaty has been agreed upon and the
Hawaiian islands are to be annexed.
The treaty was sent to the Senate for
confirmation. It's salient points are
as follows:
Annexation is provided for immedi-
ately upon the ratification of the treaty
and congress is to provide territorial
form of government, and until then
the present provisional government is
to be preserved.
] There is to be no bounty for Ha-
waiian sugar, this matter being left
for the future action of congress.
This means that there will be no
bounty at all, for the next congress
will certainly repeal the sugar bounty
law.
The contract labor and anti Chinese
laws of the United States are to be
made applicable to the Hawaiian is
lands. The United States govern
ment is to assume the obligations of
the Hawaiian government, and the
queen and the Princess Kaiulani are
to receive pensions during their life.
The royal family is quite literally
provided for. The deposed queen is
to receive $4,000 a year, and the
heiress apparent is also to receive a
sum commensurate with her position.
AS for the Chinese, they are to be
regarded as sojourners, having no
rights as citizens under the laws of the
United States.
The debt of Hawaii is to be disposed
of by the United States assuming re-
sponsibility for it in it's entirety. The
debt is about SO, 100000. In return
for this assumption, however, the
United States is to be the recipient of
all the revenues for the islands. The
income, although the fact is not made
apparent in the treaty, is about $1O,-
900, 900 annually.
The form of government provided
for the islands is left for the decision
of congress. 1t is proposed that Ha-
waii have governor like Alaska, or
be governed by commission similar
to the District of Columbia.
The provisional government of Ha-
wall must accept the terms of the
treaty within two months from the
time it is ratified by the United States
Senate.
