quantity OF fertilizer Is used. The gen.
tleman, whose interests l represent
here to-day, uses from 500 to 900 tons of
commercial fertilizer per year, and it
is of great importance to me to have the
question discussed as to the relative
value of fertilizers, the quantity to be
applied and various other questions of
that kind. There is one point in par
ticular that thought of speaking on,
and intend to limit my remarks. There
are some members here, and some hor-
ticulturists in Florida, who have the
education and experience to warrant
them in buying the raw material, as you
would say, and mixing them according
to their own notion of what they want
for aiertilizer. That is they may buy
their own potash and their own phOs-
phate, and their own ammonia, but the
difficulty in my mind is the proportions
in which to use them. OF course do
not believe that one person can tell the
quantities to use, because the soil is so
different, and in measure we must be
our own judges as to that, but all through
our sections there have been wonderful
failures right along in this fertilizer
question. Of course it is good to cheap
en- this question of fertilizers. Blood
and bone and tobacco stems come
cheaper. You will find grower after
grower who gets coarse, thick skinned,
miserable fruit and who puts it upon
the market and gets nothing for it, year
in and year out, and he does not seem
to raise any question as to how he came
to have that class of fruit, and
seems to take it for granted
that that is all that he can raise. He
goes into the market with miserable
scrubby oranges. To my mind there is
no competition at all if man raises the
best. All you have to do to reach that
conclusion is to think of it, that man has
made q success of orange growing, exam
inc the quality of that mans fruit. find
out what he gets for it, and you will find
that it is right along this very..l line of in
teIligence that you find this fine frdit.
For instance, to illustrate, | am inter-
ested in grove that had bright, thin
skinned fruit. | sold it to the first man
who came along and sold it at q good
fair price on the trees and believe that
l can again produce that kind of fruit.
I believe that it is done largely along
that line of fertilizing, and | believe we
can produce quality and quantity. But
l had another grove that year. before [
took the notion that it did not have a
big enough crop, and made up my mind
to rush that and | applied ton and
half of tobacco stems to the acre, and |
had big crop of pumpkin oranges, as
big as my head, and could not sell that
crop for love or money-when [ tried to
sell it to this same man who bought the
other fruit he wouldn't have it at any
price-he couldn't sell it in his market.
He wanted some fine fruit and he came
right here to get it, but he wouldn' take
this fruit. | had the good fortune to
sell it after while, and | think / beat
the fellow who bought it. That is the
line that l should like this discussion to
take. would like to commune with my
brethren here on this line without dis

STEWART, OF Santa Rosa. am an ad-
vocate of muck simply because it has
proved a success with me. That is muck
and ashes, but | do not want to haul
muck out in it's sour state and put it in
my grove. want it to be thoroughly
dried. The way used it was to get it
out and let it get thoroughly dry and
then mix it with ashes.
WEBER: 1t seems to me that the
only way VIC can arrive at any conclu-
sion is to make the tests with our fertil-
izers. Ifyou will take any standard fer
tilizer it seems to me that any common
grower can make q correct test. Why
not in making your reports get several
different fertilizers, apply them to several
strips of your grove, give each strip the
same spray and the same cultivation,
and then possibly you could discover
which was the best. 1t has been a won
der to me why these different kinds have
not been taken hold of by the different
growers and tested in this manner. II
certain growers would do this it seems to
me that we could at least get some val
liable points.
HAML1N: We are carrying out exactly
that suggestion. We are trying six diff
ferent fertilizers in several different ways.
We are trying it in different groves and
side by side in the same grove. tits impos
si5le as far as we are concerned to report
any definite results as yet on these exper-
iments, because where there is some diff.
ference to-day there may not be in
thing about how to fertilize pear orch
ards, peach orchards, etc.
STEWART: | would like to ask if in fer
tilizing you would use nitrate Of soda,
whether or notyou would put 100 pounds
of that the same as you would Of cotton
seed meal?
HEALY: No sir, would not use any
cotton seed meal. That muck of mine [
presume was once in the ocean. 1t is from
two to ten feet of decayed vegetation,
and I have used it about the same as [
would if was putting on manure. will
challenge anything in West Florida to
beat my vineyard, and | have not used
anything else on it.
LAWRENCE: | took some muck to Prof
Robinson, and had him make an analysis
OF it, and he said it was rich in humus,
and he took and poured out what sand
there was in it and there was not as
much as the end of that pencil. | went

ter it was cured [ have been testing it on

MINERS ENTOMBED.
NEARLY 200 BURIED IN A
FIERY COAL PIT.
A Spark From an Engine Causes a Dread
full Explosion In Welsh Coal Mine
All Attempts at Rescue Provo of
No Avail -Asonizing Scenes
witnessed at tho Mouth
of the Burning Pit.

LONDON, April IA spark from an
engine yesterday afternoon ignited
the gas in the coal pit near Pont-y-
Pridd, Wales, and caused the gas to
explode. A large number of miners
were at work at the time and the ex-
plosion caused terrible havoc. The
exact number of lives lost is not
known, but it is reported that twenty
persons were killed and many
others were more or less
seriously injured. Nearly two
hundred miners are entombed in the
mine. The rescuers who went down
were driven back without being abb e
to bring up more than five of the dead
and the fate of the other miners is in
doubt The most agonizing scenes are
witnessed, and a crowd of men, wo-
men and children, relatives of those
below, are crowding around the mouth
of the coal pit. The worst fate is
feared for hundreds of miners. There is
little doubt, however, that most, if
not all, of the men left below have
been suffocated or burned to death.
Hand grenades, barrels of water and
pipes attached to fire engines on the
surface are being used to extinguish
tions of the mine the fire was put out.
The extinction of the flames has been
followed in each case by the accumu-
lation of gas, and it is feared that ex-
plosions may follow shortly.

A NEW TARIFF BILL.
Congressman Springer Preparing n Radi-
cal Law.

WASHINGTON, April 11.-Mr. Spring
er of Illinois, chairman of the ways
and means committee of the last con-
gress, remains in Washington, engaged
in the preparation of q tariff bill, and
is in constant communication with
Secretary Carlisle upon that subject.
The basis of this measure, according
to private intimati tions will be free
raw material, with a reduction all
along the line of existing schedules.
1t is the purpose of Mr.. Springer to
add to the free list the articles of
wool, lumber, salt, binding twine,
coal, iron ore and all other raw ma
terial entering into the more advanced
stages of manufacture. There will be,
moreover, a large reduction in the
duties on manufactures of woolens
and cottons.
Mr.. Springer is of the opinion that
the president will be earnest in the
that bill framed along that line will
receive the support of the administra-
ton. An assault is to be made di-
reotly on the tin plate provisions of
the Mckinley law.
1t remains to be. seen whether Mr..
Springer's plan will be the administra-
ton program and whether President
Cleveland will go so far as Mr.
Springer claims he will in the reduc-
ton of duties and in the assaults upon
the Mckinley tariff. Nothing has
happened since March TO indicate
what the views of Mr.. Cleveland are
upon that subject.
