many words it is evident that he thinks
an injustice was done California by the
committee which met in the AGRICULT-
URIsT office to test the California fruit
and compare it with Florida products.
We wish to deny this. Those who met
to compare the samples were conserva-
tive men who were willing to concede
to California every point that was hers
They admitted that in some respects the
California fruit was especially fine, not
ably in color, rind and juiciness-in the
latter point it was thought superior to the
average Florida pine land orange, about
equaling in this respect to the hammock
fruit of the State. These things, we say,
were conceded, and we site them only for
the purpose of showing that the commit
teemen were willing to give to the Cali
f0rnia fruit all it's deserts.

1T is TRUE OF ALL.

What the Madison Recorder says in
necessity of factories il true of every
town in the State.
One thing needed to make and maintain per-
manent prosperity for our town is the erection
and operation of factories. They create and
bring i'll revenue to their owners from beyond the
natural trade limits of a town, make better
market for produce grown in said limits. thereby
encouraging and aiding the producers, create
more cash trade for the merchants and other
business men and add more inhabitants to the
population and moreimportance to a community
than almost anything else, as is evidenced by the
fact that a manufacturing town is always a
prosperous town. Madison has need of and can
furnish good sites for several. Who of our hust-
lers will start the ball towards securing them?
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1893-08-02

IT is to be hoped that the orange
growers will not get panicky this season and sell
their fruit below it's real value. Some of them
have an idea that there is an enormous crop and
that prices will necessarily be low. They should
divest their minds OF this idea if possible and pro-
coed with the idea that oranges worth as
much if not more than ever before. Confidence
will do much to hold up prices, while a panic and
a want OF confidence will demoralize the market.

EDITORIAL CHAT.

FLORIDA, like every section OF the
country is affected to greater or less extent by
the financial depression Our people feel the eff
fects of the pressure of money matters, but they
are keeping cool heads and looking forward to
change. They should at the same time circulate
money as freely as possible Let every one pay
their little bills when they fall due, and this will
keep things going until the change comes.
WE had no intention OF stirring up
our mango friends in our recent remarks anent
that fruit. The point we wished to make was
that the mango sent to this market, and doubt
less to Others, was what is known as the stringy
variety and that there was great room for i'm
provement by the cultivation and marketing Of
the better varieties of the fruit exclusively.
The Tallahassee region is getting quite
a reputation as darying section, and it is no
uncommon thing to see ''fresh Tallahassee but
ter' advertised for sale in the country papers
throughout South Florida. Thebutter is shipped
to different points in Florida from Tallahassee
twice week thus making it always fresh. The
butter is frst-cass and a very agreeable change
from the so-called creamery" article sold
throughout the State.

THE WHITE SCALE.

A few days ago we received specimen
of white scale attached to orange bark
from Mr.. O. j. Hill, Of DeLand. The
scale was reported as infesting an old
grove, covering the trunks nearly and
some of the large branches, but not inter-
fering with the new wood. The insects
were sent to Prof Rolls, Biologist, of

the great host of American green tea
drinkers may be supplied absolutely pure
and American tea to their liking.
AS to the question of profit the prob
lem must remain unsOlved for several
years. Without reference to the unfore-
seen dangers such as destruction by in
sects and other foes, the pivotal factor is
that of production and the Pinehurst
gardens are too young to afford satisfac-
tory conclusions. They are also too
small to warrant the substitution of ma
chinery for manual labor in the manu-
facture of tea, a step rendered indispensG-
bic by Asiatic competition, but the cost
between the two systems may be calcula-
ted. We have produced good leaf 1t is
possible that enough customers may like
the style in which the Pinehurst tea of
the last season was prepared to consume
impossible crop from this farm. Other
wise it can be prepared to suit them.
At this writing the outlook for the sue
cess of the tea estate of few hundred
acres is good but it will involve the ex-
penditure Of large sums of money. The
business should control it's own labor,
which can be done in the South 1t must be
cheap reliable, obedient and intelligent to
a small degree. Perhaps the poorer white
classes might be taught to cultivate tea
and properly pick it, disposing of the
product to a central factory, but it is
doubtful if they can afford to wait the
four or five years after seed planting
which are necessary before any cOnsid
cradle amount Of leaf can be gathered.
The principle demand for labor in the
tea industry is in leaf picking. 1t is not
arduous and should be done by women
and children. We are hopeful that the
possible tea culture may open cOngen-
ial employment to them, both white and
black"
We would not suggest that our people
cut down their orange groves and plant
the land in tea seed. Not by any means;
nor would we advise them to 60 into the
business on an extensive scale until
something more definite is known as to
it's possible success in the State. Condi-
tons certainly seem favorable, and we
think our people might experiment at
small cost, and perhaps strike something
good. The Florida Experimental Sta
ton might help along in this matter,
and we trust that the new director will
inaugurate series of experiments with
such plants as promise the faintest pos
sibility of yielding profitable crops in
Florida.
