Fall Crop Of Potatoes.

The time is now at hand for the
planting of the fall crop of Irish pota-
toes, and failure is made of this crop
| in this State oftener than a success, it is
worth while to try to discover where the
fault lies. We are not sure that the
Europeans, especially the French and
| Scotch, do not excel us in the cultiva
ton of the potato. They have certainly
more favorable conditions than the
planters of Florida; they have cooler,
molster soil. The fall crop in this State
requires special attention in order to
make it success. One of the most i'm
portant points is to have the tubers form
deep enough to be cool.
The French growers, especially for
table or commercial consumption, plant
medium sized whole tubers, and always
when the sprouts are well out. They do
not consider numerous eyes as source
of weakness, for each sprout or spindle
has it's proportionate stock of infant
food, just as animals with their young
are enabled by nature ultaneously to
bring up numerous progeny. For the
many eyes, cutting at the rate of ten
bushels per acre are in favor. Not much
attention is paid to the number of eyes
on the cutting so long as a fair lump of
the tuber is secured to feed or sustain a
vigorous sprout.
Equally important is the question
whether to cultivate in drills or on the
fiat. The latter is less laborious; the
drill or ridge system can only be good on
soils Of a humid tendency, and is there
fore not at all suited for the potato, which
luxuriates on friable loan and in cool
ness around the roots. The drill system
also circumscribes the expansion of the
tendrils of the roots, whose nodocity, or
ganglians, as science has recently dem
onstrated, harbor the microbes that alb
sorb and work up food nitrogen for the
plant. French level-planting is not
what it's name would imply. After the
soil is we'll harrowed-it is rarely rolled
"a cavity, not hole, ten inches deep,
is scooped at distances of two and one
half feet: the thrown-up earth forms a
wall like the mouth of avolcano. In the
CRATER" to complete the simlle, the po-
tato is dropped and lightly covered at
first, to be covered deeper as the Guilt
walton progresses. The rain falling into
this cavity, percolates through the clean,
rich, mellow earth which serves as a
straincr to catch the free nitrogen
washed out of the atmosphere by the
rain. The gradual filing up of this
crater earths up the plants like celery,
holding them erect longer, enabling Gull
tivation to be prosecuted later. Thus
the crater feeds the plants, instead of
diverting food from them, as the ridge
does.
We would merely add that for the fall
crop in Florida, it is imperative to plant
whole seed.-Citizen.

There were one or two other small
groves close by but as we had seen the
grove in Little Cypress we were anxious
to see the one in Big Cypress.
We had to recross the prairie but about
six miles further down 1t was much
0rier and the land much better. Here
we saw rank growth of grass and acres
and acres of land ready for the pillow. AS
this was time of high water the best
land could easily be picked out.
We crossed at the lower ford of the
Okaloacoochee slough and camped on
the edge of 'pine island"
The next morning part of the company
returned to Myers but Mr.. Hinson and
the writer pushed on to the Big Cypress.
We reached Rock Spring camp where
the surveyors had preceded us and were
running lines to locate the orange lands.
This camp was on the edge of Big Cy-
press and the orange grove was about
seven miles inside.
Taking an early start in The morning
we rode about five miles horsebac Ok A
roadway had been cut through part of
the way but the balance was only blazed
and the horses picked their way through
the cypress and other trees, creeping
vines of many kinds, ferns and other
growths beyond our ability to name.
Part of the time we were in water two
inches deep and then again two feet. On
the way we passed Pumpkin Ham
mock" This is small elevated piece
of land on which the Indian pumpkin
was growing and producing fruit. These
pumpkins are said to be very delicious
and very productive.
1t was with considerable difficulty that
we followed the trail but at last we
reached camping place. Here we tied
our horses and proceeded afoot We fol-
lowed the course of The creek, in water
from knee to waist deep, as it was much
easier than walking through the thick
vines and underground. About mile
of this kind of travel and we left the
creek and ''took to the woods" The
ground commenced to get higher and
soon we were entirely out of water and
came to large opening and all around
the sour orange trees stood out in all their
vigor and beauty. No scale, white fly,
scab or other disease troubled the trees
and many of them still have ripe oranges
on them, some of which we brought
home with us as trophies.
This piece of land contains about three
hundred acres and Mr.. Hinson thinks
there are enough trees on it to set out
every bit Of the land. Here is certainly
a paradise for the orange tree but how to
get it to market is the question.
Mr.. Hinson feels confident that by the
time the trees are bearing enough to
ship the railroads will pass that way.
In case thew do not the slough could be
opened without great deal of expense
aud the fruit lightered to the coast near
Naples,a distance of about 20 miles.
We visited these groves at time
when the country is at it's worst as to
water and we found p'enty of it but all

 They were as quiet and orderly as could be desired. After that came what they evidently enjoyed more than all else, a hymn sung with much sweetness by a lady. Probably they would not have ventursd to applaud it, but as the chairman, who still pulfed his briar, clapped his hands, they all followed with vigor, and their faces testified how much they were in earnest. 4 chap ter was read from the Bible, and the chairman took up the theme. It was the miracle of the six barley loaves and the two fishes. He deliv- cred a simple discourse that lasted half an hour.
