The long droughtOf last year warned
the Florida orange e-growers and truck
farmers that irrigation was almost as
indispensable in the maturing of their
crops as it is found to be in the Pacific
Coast States, observes tho New York
Post. At Oviedo, where there are
some of the finest orange groves in
Florida, irrigation has been success
fully tested, and Mt Maitland the
whistle of the irrigating engine is
heard daily during the dry season.

The factories along tho railroad except
the Granite Mills, use ste nm altogether,
and consume great quantities Of wood and

wood in almost unlimited quantity, and
tho revenues derived from its sale is of
great help to the farmers.
For long time these mills produced
only plaids, but recently white cloth and
demins have been added to their products.
The plaids weigh about four ounces to
the yard; the dcmins nine. The profit in

At present the business is suffering
from the financial depression that is felt
all over the world. Governor Holt re-
marked to the writer few days ago that
he had on hand 500, 900 worth of the pro.
ducts of his mills, for which there is no
market. Another manufacturer has on
hand SEQ, 900. Still they keep their looms
and spindles running in order to give en-.
ployment to their operatives. There have
been no strikes here at any time, and the
owners of the mills say they will reward
the faithfulness of the employs.

An Experiment With Fresh Air.

An interesting experiment that proves
the value of fresh air in winter, even for
very young and delicate children, was
tried two or three months ago in well
known babies hospital. All the sickly
babies that were suffering from chronic
Indigestion and lack of nutrition and
who would not improve in spite of good
food, perfectly ventilated rooms and
careful bathing, were taken to the top
ward of the hospital, where all the win
dows were open wide, wrapped as for
the street, and put in their peranbu-
lators. They were kept in this room
from two to four hours daily and soon
showed a marked improvement. Their
cheeks became rosy, they gained in
weight and appetite and would often
fall asleep and remain SO during the
whole time they were in the air. Very
delicate children had bags of hot water
placed at their feet It is recorded IN
the account of this experiment that not
one child took cold as result of it.

The cost Of ''chaperonage'' has risen.
The older women, who are considered
indispensable escorts to the girl students
who attend examinations and lectures,
are demanding and receiving higher pay
than ever before. In many cases the
students cannot afford to meet this in
creased expense, and a daring reformer
has suggested that chaperons be dis
pensed with. While this has Mortified
the conservatives, it has pleased the indie
pendent young women, who are begin
ming to realize that there is no lurking
peril in the streets of Oxford.-San Fran
