productive now than formerly. Does it
take more food to supply family today
than in the days gone by? Is it the
fault of the climate or the soil, or of the
man? Is not the same ten or twenty OF
forty acres just as capable of supplying
tie wants of family as in the days OF
our fathers? Are cattle more difficult
to raise? Do horses consume more ol
grain and forage? Does it take more tC
feed pork than in the past? Perhaps we
want to live more luxuriously or to labor
less diligently.
Perhaps we want to get gain more
RAPIDLY than did our fathers. Evident
it is there Is a screw loose somewhere
and our first business is to find just
where it is and fasten the joints and 60
forward with better assurance of gain
ing a livelihood. First a good, decent,
comfortable living, a quiet, peace able,
pleasant home, and. then may come the
idea of accumulation, or getting gain
Some men seem to think the lot of the
land workers is hard one, and growing
more and more undesirable. All this is
a fallacy.
1t may be true that for time past
farmers have had the heavier end of the
log to carry, but the time is nigh at
hand when other industrial workers
must come to the level or plane upon
which the soil tillers stand. 1t may not
be lust the most pleasant thing for them
to do, but it is unquestionably the right
thing, and it must needs come TO pa IS
as the only adjustment permissible
IN this direction. Less of trade or
traffic is called for, less of transportation
is demanded by economy. Less OF Off
cial and professional service is an imper-
ative need. Less of speculation and
monopoly and middlemen labor is called
for. Smaller factories and workshops
and storehouses are wanted in order that
the individual member of society maJ
stand better opportunity to hoe his
row in peace, reaping a fair reward for
his best efforts with fewer heavy bur
dens and unfair opportunities of winning
success. And likewise must the small
farmer be encouraged and not the giant
tiller of the land, whose aim is to get
gain even if it be at the cost Of the rights
of others who may toll for him.
Mr.. Editor, the adjustment now called
for sets forth, as first in Importance, the
encouragement of single-handed farm
ers seeking to obtain livelihood for
their families. Second, to encourage
small land holdings instead of large
ones. Third, to encourage all individ'
ual efforts to establish for themselves
homes, farms, business enterprises, etc,
and under their own charge and man
agement. Our laws in the past have
been to foster the large enterprises and
favor capitalists
Small farms we'll cared for Is our
motto. A. f. BOYCE.

For the FLORIDA AGRICULTURIsT.
He Will Heed Predictions.

I refrained from writing or making
comments upon the first hard freeze,
considering myself inadequate to make
any suggestions as to give any counsel
that would be beneficial to the people OF
Florida and the writings | have seen
upon the subject have proved nothing.
The last freeze has upset all calculations.
The weather bureau has failed to prove
successful as weather predictor, being
too slow and it's signals too late to be of
much value to the public. But we have
two scientific men who give forecasts OF
the weather whose predictions have been
marvelously correct and whose forecasts
of the weather which, if they had been
generally known and acted upon, would
have saved Florida millions of dollars
and the people kept from poverty and,
in hundreds of cases, from actual want.
These two men have certainly been most
wonderfully correct in their predic-
tions.
After the first freeze | made up my
mind TO be more careful as other freezes
were predicted. And while my neigh
bors rushed In and telegraphed for more
seed-beans and tomatoes, held back
and kept my seed in the sack. Hundreds
of acres were replanted to tomatoes and
beans in this section and were up and
looking nice when the second freeze
came and all are laid low again. Now
further prediction is made that on the
24th of February another cold spell will
surely come lasting until the 9th of the
month. | shall keep my seed in sacks
until the first of March and then shall
be governed by the predictions, prefer
ing not to plant at all rather than loose
time and seed, too.
1t is too soon yet to tell what the damage
to orange groves is, but in all probability
great many young groves are injured
beyond recovery and a great many large
budded trees badly frozen. There will
no doubt be many groves or trees in pro-
tected locations that will recover and
come through all right, but the severe
frost line will be more clearly established
and orange culture narrowed down to a
paying basis, and while it is hard blow
to Florida at present think in the long
run she will be the gamer; for people
will turn their attention to other prod
ucts that are not so perishable or that
can be raised in their season-pecans
will pay and so will tobacco.

to give us means for comfortable habi-
tation. 1t is goodly homeland. 1t
may not flow with milk and honey, but
it is able to furnish these in all neces-
sary supply and half hundred OF our
other desired articles of food and raj
ment and shelter and fuel in fairly
abundant quantities.
Is Florida desert waste? Our answer
is, far, far away from it Is Florida an
inhospitable swamp? Our answer is, far,
far away from it |! Is it an impenetra-
BILE Jungle or wilderness? Our answer
is, by no means Neither is it torrid
land of alternate floods and drouths
Nor is it infested with serpents, or fe
rOciOus animals, or poisonous insects. or
other predatory creatures whose num-
bers are fearful to contemplate. Its
present population of half million
could be increased five to seven fold and
still be supported by the products of the
State. Call We not this goodly home
land when we compare it with home
lands elsewhere?
We have need to adjust our food prod
ucts to the supply of our home wants
first and not seek for money crops where
with to purchase our needs. We have
tried this way full long enough and have
helped to enrich others while we have
grown poorer, or have labored for an un-
enviable pittance. To him who plants
with intent to sell for gain must appor-
portion out to others large share to
haul and sell, and buy and bring back
to him his needs; while he who plants
to supply his home wants saves the share
the former gives away.
Let the orange crop go! Let the gar
den trucking pass out of sight; the rail
way carriers have skinned the cream
of these crop receipts in days gone by.
Let us now grow fruits of various kinds
to meet our home wants and garden
crops to supply our own tables, and grain
and dairy and fowl products to meet our
fullest wants, and pork and wool and
fibers to supply all our needs.
Do you say we can hardly do this
My answer is we never yet have half
tried so to do and if we take it for grant
ed we cannot accomplish the same we
are soldiers about like the Chinese
unworthy the name.
Does any man deem it imprudent to
farm it for living in this State?
Our answer is, this very thing was
practiced forty years ago and proved
itself worthy of a trial now.
Look at Duval county, with a terri
tory of over 600 square miles, and now
growing hardly enough to support sixty
hundred people Is there not something
amiss here?
Labor became too costly for farming
and one crop after another was dropped
out of tillage and now not half the land
is titled which was put in crops thirty or
forty years ago, although it is no less

Money Crops.

Money Crops.
Now, Mr.. Editor. let us make rush
for some money crop-the quickest one
the better, unless it be that one which
promises to pay the largest profit. Bus
mess is business, and to make gain is
our chief object, whether in tilling the
land or in buying and selling. To get
gain is what inspired Jay Gould, and
the means or methods by which so to do
was of lesser consequence as to their
equity and justice toward others.
To get gain inspired a Pullman so that
he fancied it was quite the thing for
him to do in building up city after his
own ideas of neatness and regularity,
bringing several thousand persons to
conform to his bid and nod and to accept
his doling out of earnings as pleased his
autocratic relation toward them.
TO get gain inspired those Brooklyn
street car companies to force an undue
speed in thronged streets and to compel
several hundred men to give them four
teen hours per day of time service for
ten hours agreement and compensation.
And vet no one can deny but what all
these have the lawful right or privilege
TINS to do, for the law comedies this
much, if not even still more.
But our purpose here is to set forth
"better way" than to make the getting
of gain the chief purpose OF life-of
business-of tilling the ground. DO not
understand that the idea of gain should
be eliminated altogether from the plans
and object of men in matters pertaining
to our industrial affairs, but rather that
It be made secondary instead OF the
primary concern.
This brings us to the lesson OF the
past sixty days-the immense loss TO the
Florida farmers (or fruit growers ana
garden workers); how to avoid a repeu-
tion of such a tremendous disaster and
waste of energy, loss of courage, and
entailing of perishing want.
It is not too late to plant much OF the
land over again. It is not in any sense
unwise to set out orchards and groves
and vineyards.
It is not we'll to stand listless, bemoan-
ing over the loss of the last two months
It is folly to abandon all hopes of max
ing good living here in Florida IL IS
far better to be up and doing that which
this lesson has taught us all-that is, If
we were not too self-wise to be learners.
The lines of our former husbandry are
not safe lines to continue in practice
and now are we called upon to so adjust
our plans and efforts to till the land that
it may bring forth to us livelihood
comfortable and enjoyable, servlceaole
and reliable. This can be done-we can
not afford to ignore 1t. Moreover IL Is
folly to question or doubt it, The lana
has been created for this very purpose

CLARENCE,
De LG LMch0 de la Habara:
CALLEJ JA

Aver ha dimitido ell sefior' Calleja los
cargOs de GObern adOr y Captain General
de Ia isla de Cuba. Si esta dimision no Sc
ha presentado con caracter de irrevocable,
debese un impulse de delicadeza, q un
alto sentimiento de pundonor que SO expli-
de guerra en- que se halla la parte oriental
de la isla.
Debemos la autoridad que Sc va JUS
ticia extricta, y porque Sc la debemos, ma
nifestamos con toda sinceridad que ell pals
liberal vera con sentimiento la cesaci0n
en- el mando del sefior Calleja.
60. FL general Calleja SO ha mostrado
siempre correcto en- todos sus actos. Esta
correction la ha ofrecido 10 mismo en- su
vida privada que en- su vida publica. Po-
dram desconocerlO las pasiones politicas,
siempre irritadas contra ell adversario ell
tenido como tai, pasiones que entire nos
otros han llegado hasta al paroxismo, prin-
cipalmente en- estos ultimos tiempos, pero
10 que decimos 40 10 desconoceran los hom-
bres de espfritu crftico y ref1exivo. -.
Porque hay un dato que sin notoria
iujusticia no puede desdefarse al juzgar
la conducta del digno general. Y ese da-
to, es que ell seflor Calleia ha sido en- Cuba
10 dnico que podfa y deb1a ser; del repre-
sentante interprete de la polftica del 60
bierno que 10 envi0 la isla. Si ell general
no hubiera representado interpretado le-
gftinna : felmente 81 pensamiento polftico
del gobierno que hasta ahora rigi6 los des-
tinos de la naci6n, no solo ell general no
habrfa cumplido con el mandate que Sc le
confirio, no solo habrfa faltado a la con-
fanza que en- 81 SO depositara, sino que in
mediatamente SO le hubiera significado la
conveniencia de resignar sus altisimas
funciones. ~~.-##
No, no era possible que Ell general Ca
lleja hiciera y practicara en- Cuba polftica
distinta a la politica del partido liberal di-
fecta correspondence entire ell gobierno
fusio oista y Ell gobierno del senior Calleia.
Las pasiones que tan fuertemente Sc
han agitado en- torno del general que nos
daja, debieron pasar por encima de su per-
soma para ,bullir alrededor del partido que
ejereia el mando supreme en- la Peninsula.

Habia una cosa la cual estaba obli-
gado el general Calleja: Ell respeto q las
leyes. Pues bien; ell general las ha respe-
tado. NosotrOs ahrmames que todo 10 Que
ha hecho 81 general 10 hizo, ,dentro de los
lfmites legales, dentro de aus facultades.
La prensa proclamara que ningun general
ha sido con ella mas deferente respetuo-
so que ell senior Calleja. Esta es la verdad
Pero donde resaltan mas Ell caracter
elevado del se6or Calleja y sus mobiles cua-
idades de gobernante discreto, ha Sido en-
su actitud frente al actual movimiento in
surreccional. En- esta crisis. que una ms
piraci6n buena y levantada ha evitado SO
exacerbase, hemos visto lleno de pruden-
cia y provision al seflor Calleia, cuya con-
ducta ha inspirado todos la mayor CON
fanza. Con su polftica de moderation
templanza, ell senior Calleia ha logrado Que
este pueblo, en- su inmensa mayoria. rea
firmara su proposito de mantener La paz.
de luchar dentro de Ia legalidad. -
Y de esta suerte ell general le ha Cado
al gobiernO una fuerza moral enorme para
combatir Ia agitaci6n revolucionaria. La
opinion p1blica no ha cesado de aplaudir
esta pol1tica magEanima q la par Que pro-
funda, pues es La sola ef1caz para restable-
ser prOnto la paZ.
El general Calleja, que es mas militar
que politico, en- Ell case de que ell gabinete
Canovas no le aceptara la dimisi6n, cum
plirfa las 6rdenes instrucciones que le
| diera, con la misma escrupulosidad con
que observe siempre las que recibfa del
ministerio Sagasta. Tai es Ell general Ca
lleja. Su lena es la obediencia.
