shall have fruit which is neither a good
sweet orange nor good Seville, and
seeds which will grow up into trees yield
ing fruit of some intermediate character.
do not think that thoroughly good
orange will have any but thoroughly
good seeds, but if cross-fertilization with
an inferior variety has taken place. then
the fruit will tell the tale, and warn us
against the seed. Now, if this be true,
that cross fertilization affects the fruit,
how can we ever expect to have good
fruit for export so long as there is an
abundance of inferior trees? There is
no use whatever in going to all the ex-
pense and trouble of budding the best
varieties, unless first some pains be taken
to extirpate the worthless varieties, and
second, it is determined to thoroughly
cultivate them. Rural Californian.

The product of oranges and lemons
in the south of Italy was last year very
satisfactory to both producers and mer-
chants, having reached the total amount
of 81 900 tons of the value Of 2S5, 000l.
The rise in the price of this article is
principally owing to the great facilities
granted by the railway companies, by
which means great quantity is export
ed to the north of Italy, where the fruit
is largely consumed. No direct expor-
tation of this product was from Reggie
Calabria to foreign countries, effected
during 1891, save a small quantity of
sailed citrons for Russia; although it is
we'll to note that the quantity of fruit
exported from Messina to foreign coun-
tries, this district contributed for the
most part, especially in the oranges, of
which that province does not produce a
great quantity. In fact the returns for
1891 showsn expectation of 81 900 boxes
of fruit from this district to the port of
Messina, wherein are not comprised
the mandarines. Also important is the
production of dried fruit in this district,
particularly of chestnuts and figs, the
latter being considered as good rs those
produced &C Smyrna. The quantity ex-
ported in 1891 was 5000 tons, of which
1000 tons were direct for Malta.-Ex-

Degeneration of the Orange.

One great advantage which Florida
and California growers have oyer Jamai-
ca is, that the growers on that island
have to contend against so many wild
sour trees that the pollen from which is
carried to the sweet trees, causing con-
slant deterioration. So great is this ten
dency that it is common remark in
Jamaica that the seeds of sweet orange
will always produce trees yielding sour
oranges. Following is an extract from
a recent government bulletin: "But
another point in the physiology of plants
has here to be taken into account, and
that is the effect OF cross-fertilization.
The pollen of flowers is conveyed by in
sects from plant to plant, and Darwin
has shown that in nature, and as a rule,
plants benefit by cross-fertilization. The
ovary fertilized by pollen from another
flower rather than it's own yields more
seed, and these produce larger and
stronger plants. Generally pollen is
only operative when carried to flowers
belonging to the same species, but [
think that there is no doubt that in the
different species of citrus the fruit itself
is affected by pollen of different species,
and still more by different varieties of
the same species. The flower of good
orange tree, perhaps, will be fertilized
by the pollen from inferior varieties or
from Seville orange, and the result
may be that not only the seed but the

The Seed Business.

Secretary Morton has taken one step
toward reform in the garden-seed hum
bug which has been carried on by the ag-
ricultural department so long. The gov
eminent has paid thousands of dollars
for common seeds that were too old to
do good anywhere, and sent them to
sections Of the country where they would
have been useful if they had been fresh,
and cords OF them have lain in the Offices
Of congressman until they we're eaten by
rats or Weevils, and some few friends have
been supplied with seeds for their gardens
out of the lot The original idea was to
test new varieties in different parts OF the
country, but now that we have expert
ment stations in nearly every State,
where such things can be tested with care
and skill, there is no excuse for sending
out more than enough for the stations to
test. Secretary Morton has made a
move in this direction. Hereafter no
seeds will be issued to city congressman,
while those to rural representatives will
be reduced i'll quantity, and the seeds
that would have been supplied them will
be sent to the several agricultural ex peri
ment stations to be distributed by
them. Only those seeds will be sent to
the different stations that are peculiarly
adapted to the soil and climate of the
locality Exchange

Profits of a Small Orange Grove.

The day is soon to come when the
orange industry will be reduced to q
science in the care of the tree and the
amount of fruitit should yield each year.
We mean among those growers that
have been successful in getting fairly
good crops each year from their groves,
and there are quite number of these
groves around DeLand. There need be
no off year in the fruitage of the orange
tree when it is once in good bearing,
and for a budded tree at least eight
years, and for the Seeding twelve years
to come into such perfect condition of
full crop every year. For instance, on
a five acre grove the maximum crop
will be 5000 boxes, the minimum not
less than $500 boxes, but it will re-
quire this science, the highest cult
walton and fertilizing TO get such crop,
but the total cost per year will not ex-
coed $3.50 for each five acres. Say that
you will net seventy-fve cents per box
on them and the average crop will be
5000 boxes, you can see what an I'M
mense profit there is left from a five
acre grove. While this is nevertheless
the fact, it is hard matter to make
many growers believe it. 1t is also a
hard matter to convince many growers
that if a grove yields from $4,000 to
$4,000 boxes, and that number Of boxes
return you from SIS, 900 to $4,000, at
least third of the amount should 60
back to these trees in food. There are
too many orange growers in Florida
that expect good crops of fruit every
year without giving the trees the help
they should have. Such growers will
never make dollar out of the orange
business. The older an orange tree
grows the larger crop it yields. Some
treesof this State have fully matured 12,'
600 to Is 900 oranges per tree or 100 boxes
to the tree, averaging $50 to the box.
In the DaCamera grove north of town,
the old Jim Bennett place, there are
sixty-one trees, about one acre, which
are twenty-five years old, and from
these sixty-one trees 900 boxes of fruit
were gathered last season. Say that
they Melted $1.25 per box on the tree,
you get profit of 81, 125 from this acre.
