A Good GoOber.

Passing along Bay street in Jackson
lille last May we saw some whooping
big peanuts in front of an Italians
stand, many OF them having three ker-
nels in a pod. We tested one to see if
the ex-inhabitant from 1taly's sunny
cline had not cooked them on us and
purchased one quart for the small and
insignificant sum Of ten cents. They were
planted in soil on which we grew COW
peas the previous season. No fertilizer
was used and only one blowing and one
hoeing given them. This fall we dug the
product and found that we had half
bushel lacking three quarts.-W. Fl. Law

xI0Oplo from more HOTCHoIu OldLe6 WIN
Florida in midwinter are apt to feel
Do,.y much put out if they find themselves
in need OF an overcoat. If they find it
agreeable to sit near fire they chafe in
spirit, and sometimes pronounce Florida
q humbug and 81 fraud. AS il the State
Nad been made to order, it's range of tenn
STATURE confined within stated limits,
and 81 barrier erected on its northern
boundary to turn the cold currents OF
air that sometimes drift down over the
snow-clad States of the North and West.
Anyone who expects to find perpetual
summer in any part of Florida, Califor-
MIA, or Italy, expects O. geographical or
climatic impossibility. Last winter the
oranges in California were badly dam
aged by frost. The same was the case in
Sicily the winter before. Oranges are
injured in Florida occasionally, but it is
an exceptional occurrence.
Although there are winters when the
temperature in Florida does not fall at
any time low enough to injure tender veg
citation, yet as a rule the winter season
does not pass without reminders of the
state of the weather further north. These
come in the shape of "cOld waves" from
the northwest, and no one can escape
them altogether without going beyond
the confines of the United States.
Instead of grumbling at such discom.
forts, every one who has the good for
tune to be in Florida should congratu-
late himself that he is absolutely out Of
the range OF snow, sleet, slush and the
whole category of disagreeables that are
encountered in the North during five or
six months of tho year. Even from mud
we are almost wholly exempt here in
Florida. And think of the horrible con-
dition of the roads in almost all OF the
States north of Florida, when the earth
is not frozen and stiff as if in the rigOr OF
death and hidden from sight with q white
shroud OF snow.
We have had exceptionally cold weather
since Christmas, but how does it COM
pare with the weather reported in other
portions of the United States and in
Europe? We read of terrible billiards. in
the Western and Eastern States, OF the
temperature down to - and 10 degrees
above zero in Georgia and North Caro-
lima, OF the Thames being frozen over, OF
snow ten feet deep in European cities,
and even of snow falling for hours in
Rome, Italy.
Think of these things and be thankful
that you are in Florida, even if you can
not wholly dispense with overcOats and
fires. Pretty soon, unless the winter
proves a phenomenal one, you can throw
your wraps aside, gather iassamines and
lilies in the woods, and luxuriate in the
warm sunshine aud "ethereal mildness''
characteristic OF true Florida winter
weather. Union.

For THE FLORIDA AGRICULTURIsT.
On the Sub-Peninsula at st.
burg.

1ul snow over the united States
Maine to Oregon and California, al*
the lakes to the gulf.
1t is O. we'll known fact that sr3
winter is invariably followed by an abu.
dant harvest OF agricultural products
but when the frost king makes bold to
scatter snoW-fakes amid the seni-tropl-
cal fruits and flowers of our own beloved
Florida, it is really too much. Not only
once, but several times since Christmas,
the golden fruit and glossy, verdant
leaves of Florida's favOrite and principal
product in the northern part OF the State
has been weighed down by snow, while far
down the peninsula the merciless frost
has bid defiance to water protection and
smudges, ruthlessly plucked our fairest
fruits and flowers, and has laid low vast
fields of tomatoes, beans and other ten
der vegetables.
Having become convinced that vegeta-
BILE growing in the interior was risky
business, decided to ''go South" and
last November [ exchanged my little
Lake county farm for filthy lucre, and
on the 10Th of this month removed with
my family to st. Petersburg, on the
"peninsula of the peninsula" of this
Sunny South. We yet have an orange
grove two miles east of Eustis 1t is
favorably situated on the south side Of
deep lake, with other lakes in the vicin-
;ty, but a letter from there says: other
mometer down to TOO; guavas badly
injured, if not killed, and some OF the
oranges frOzen.'
AS | came through SumptercOunty, on
the 18th, noticed beans, tomatoes pOta,
toes and bananas were killed, and qua
vas looked as though "the feather that
broke the camel's back" had been laid on
them All through the Withlacoochee
valley it was the same, but when Preached
the high, rolling hills at San AntO
MO, Pasco county. there was less sign OF
frost. Guava bushes were not injured,
and oranges had not been touched. From
that point until we got we'll down on the
sub-peninsula tender vegetables were
killed and guavas injured, more or less,
but as we drew near the southern termi-
ms the effects of frost seemed to have
disappeared, and when, with sharp curve
to the left, shrill whistle of the locomo-
tive announced our arrival at St. Peters
burg, [ stepped out on the platform,
there was to be seen no evidence OF the
frost's unweIcOme visits. Later and
closer inspection proved that, although
in low places beans and cukes had sui
Tered some, and also the tips of banana
leaves, ON higher ground lines were in
bloom, their tenderest leaves, growth OF
the last few days, were untouched. Qua
vas, Avocado pears, tropical paWpaws,
mangoes and other tropical plants were
unsullied by the touch OF Jack Frost's
lev breath, while the flashing OF the sun
light on the banana broad, green leaves,
the yerdant and thrifty appearance OF
tomatoes and other vegetables, promise
an abundant harvest.

4 New Pacific Naval Station.

WASHINGTON, July 6.-Naval otfi-
GERS here are agitating the necessity
for more stations and are especially
insisting that there should be sta
ton in the. South Pacific. They claim
that whenever trouble arises the Uni
ted States never has sufficient war
vessels ut place where they may be
available, aud that there never would
nave been any German trouble in
Samoa if there had been anything
more than an obsolete old hulk sta
toned there.
In the Chilean war the navy depart
ment was put to the expenditure of
over million dollars in getting ships
ready and dispatching them TO Val
paradise when IL was thought there
was likely TO be fighting. All this
expense, naval critics hold, could
have been saved to the government
if this country had a South Pacific
station with n moderate number OF
vessels stationed there constantly and
always ready TO move to the scene of
action.
More recent troubles in Samoa give
point to the argument advanced for
the necessity IF strengthening the
Pacific station and always keeping a
good sized fleet there TO draw upon in
just such instances. Heretofore the
difficulty in strengthening naval
stations has been lack of
ships Now that we have in
commission more than we have had
for several years, and at least eight
more are to be added within the next
six months, there seems to be no rea-
son why an equal distribution of them
should not put our squadrons on a
sound basis and at least make the nu-
cleus for a strong fleet with the COM
pletiOn of the new vessels.
Naval officers have great hopes of
having the South Pacific station es-
tablished and the Pacific squadron
largely strengthened, and say Secre-
tary Herbert is favorably inclined
toward such q scheme.

The Presidents Illness.

NEW YORK, July THE conflict
ing rumors of President CleveIand's
illness has caused great uneasiness
throughout the country. Various
alarmist reports limiting at cancerOus
diseases have been affirmed and de-
MED, the denials seeming to have the
best authority. The latest reports
from Gray Gables says that he is suf-
fering with rheumatism in his left
shoulder, left knee and foot. His con-
dition is not serious, nor has it been
so in the slightest degree.
In speaking of the presidents condi-
ton, the San Francisco Examiner
says: "The news of President Cleve-
lands illness is disquieting. OF course
bis secretary and physician make
light of the trouble. but this course is
so uniformly followed in similar cases,
regardless of the facts, that the public
will take no comfort from it,"
