In 1881 H II Berry bought lot of nursery

but were subsequently killed by frost. From

Oviedo Chronicle: A Riverside man has just
succeeded in extracting from eighteen pounds
OF orange peel oil in the proportion OF fifty
pounds 10 one ton Of peel. Orange oil is valu-
able commodity, being worth 81 a pound. AS
a ton of peel will yield oil to the value Of $500
the profits of such an industry will doubtless
prove satisfactory to the founder. In this con
ueotion it may be said that orange blossoms
also yield a valuable product. The facilities for
utilizing the by-products Of our fruit orchards
time will soon bring, and when established all
fruit not fit for Shipment in its natural state
can be profitably utilized in other ways,
Orlando Record: Some time ago man was
down here with samples Of cloth for mems
suits. He offered to sell cloth enough for
suit for 81 cash, and was, atterward, to send
down six tailors to make the suits for 1921 ad-
ditionsl per suit. AS this considered very
cheap about fifty men in town took the bait and
have been anXiously waiting for the arrival Of
the six little tallors. Every time they smell
burnt cloth they think the tailors have come
Yesterday one of the victims received a note
stating that the much-wanted ships had come
that they had brought some Easter suits for
ladies and were in room - at the ---- hotel
He ran up there at once only to find that he had
been mercilessly sold the room in question
being occupied by Jew dignifed ladies' touring
the state. The tailors are "out of sight" and
will probably remain there, together with their
Innings, trimmings, buttons, thread, wax and
gooses.
Gainesville Sun: On Thursday blind and
rather forlorn looking man, apparently about
the age of 40, was seen on the streets lnqulrtng
for justice of the peace. He was escorted to
the Office OF Justice Robert Il. Davis, to whom
he At once proceeded to tell his tale Of woe, and
asked the justice II he could not sell him his walk
ing stick, coat. or anything in his possession. as
he needed money to get to friends in Georgia
AS Mr.. Davis could do nothing FOR him, the
gentleman asked to be escorted to some promi-
nent Baptist. who he said would in all libei-
hood assist him, stating that he was member
in good standing Of that church. Mr.. Davis
accordingly escorted the individual to the resi-
dence Of R. Mcclellan, but not being able to
fnt that gentleman, Judge A. J.
Cone was approached a substitute
Here the man stated That his name
was Hendricks and he was DESTROYS Of obtaining
means to reach friends. but said he would be
well satisfied If the people OF Gainesville would
give him enough money to enable him to reach
Dupont Judge Cone presented the gentleman
Richardson's market, when Mr.. Jackson took
the matter Of obtaining funds in charge. He
waited on several OF our business men and was
not long IMP obtaining the required sum Rev
II. NJ. EinGbHered the gentleman the hospital
ity Of hts house until the next day, which was
accepted. and as the two were sitting in the
parlor Thursday evening, Hubert, the son of
Mr.. King, who IS attending the East Florida
Seminary, entered the room and Immediately
Identified the stranger as a Mr. Fleming, who
led at the Grant hotel in Atlanta while be
was acting clerk, and knew him to be worth
considerable property in Atlanta, and also that he
was an ex-convict, having served in the Geor-
gta state penttentary for biRamy. These facts
were ia medately conveyed &c Mr. jackson,
who at once demanded the return of the money
given him. He secured most of it and returned
it to those who had so kindly contributed in
aiding, as they thought, a helpless and friend
less individual. The man was neatly dressed in
black suit, was about feet inches in hight,
and wore a squea King voice to suit the occasion.
When last seen he was still in the city, but had
abandoned the idea Of riding to Dupont on "a
ticket purchased by money obtained from the
citizens of Gainesville. He had been looking
after his orange grove in South Florida, and
evidently thought to sWindle the people OF this
city out Of enough money to pay his expenses
here and his fare to Atlanta.
