The young shoots are coming out

growth. They had hard time forming
buds in the thick bark, and the roots
were exhausted in the effort they made
to repair the first injury, and at this
season of the year the tree IS almost ip a
dormant state after a vigorous spring

For the FLORIDA AGRICULTURIsT.
The Grass Crop.
S. P. SHEPHERD

If there is one thing that is repugnant
to the average Southern farmer, it is
grass. He has been fighting grass all
his life and he has considered it his
worst enemy, rather than one Of his best
friends. Now | will not lay myself
liable to criticism by saying that grass
in his cotton, or cOrnfield is his best
friend, but will venture the assertion
that the crop of crab grass often seen in
some of our fields in Septem Der is worth
more than the cotton or corn crop which
it has smothered out. have seen fields
thus poorly cultivated yield from five to
ten bushels of corn, and if the crab grass
growing in the middle had been cut for
hay, it would have been worth just
twice as much as the corn. Grab grass
is only one of the many grasses that can
grow cheaply here in the South. Most
any of the cultivated grasses will do well
here except on the light sandy lands.
Now the question is why should we keep
our lands in the clean cultured crops
year after year, when we are so badly in
need of pasture, and meadows? Then
these lands need to be rested and rem
ovated and this is best done by sys-
tenn of rotation. Now my doctrine is,
while your land is resting, let be grow
ing some other crop of adifferent nature.
The old English style of following made
a large crop the second year, but the
rent of land and the labor of plowing it
the off year amounted to something, to
say nothing of the teaching of elements
from the soil while the land is bare.
The question simply resolves itself
into this; if the land is in cleanly Guilt

For the FLORIDA AGRECULTURIsT:
Swedish System of Cream Raising.

In dairying, as in all other kinds of
business, losses at each and every point
must be guarded against. Cream rails
ing is one of the points where serious
loss occurs may times.
The introduction Of the Swedish or
cold deep setting system of cream rails
ing into this country in 1876 by the la
mented X. A. Willard, who first called
attention to it in the columns of the
Country Gentleman, marked an era in
butter making. 1t is sometimes called
The Swartz system because 1t was first

vated crops for several years, the me
chanical condition of the soil is MUIR
by it's exposure to the sun for so large a
part of the time. Then again, the loss
from teaching is SO great and that from
washing on hilly lands is simply enor-
nous.
The cotton crop, for example, is in it.
self not so very exhausting, but being
clean cultivated the organic matter is
burned out by the sun, and the ferti-
lizing elements rendered soluble are
leached out and the soil in many cases
is washed away bodily. The land will
loose more from the latter than from
what the cotton crop takes up in ten
years.
Now with grass crops just the Oppo-
site is true. The Ia nd is shaded and the
roots and stubble keep it from teaching
and washing away.
The farmer who grows simply cotton
and corn would save money if he would
even adopt the simple method of ploN
ing one third of his land broadcast each
year in March and then in April or May
freshen up with the spring tooth harrow
and run over with the plank drag. This
leaves the land pulverized and a little
packed, condition which will insure
the immediate germiLatio Of the crab
grass seeds which are usually in the soil
in great abundance. This insu es a
grass crop and one or two good cuttings
may be expected. This labor will Ger
tainly be covered by three dollars per
acre, and from two to three tons per
acre may be expected on good land. The
land is in a sense resting, being renovated
by a change, and the roots and stubble
will prevent washing. This is Crue of
one of our native grasses and the same
can be said of orchard grass, tall meadow
oat grass, rye grass, etc., plowed in the
fall
These however, would not grow so
we'll without fertilizers. Preceded by d
crop Of peas to furnish nitrogen and be
sure of plenty of humus in the soil,
good crop may be expected with the
addition of phosphorus and potash. BY
this method the light soils can be made
to yield good crops, as the potash absorbS
and holds moisture. b. iRBY.

practiced in Sweden by person of the
name, but the name of the Swedish OBJ
ia ned more commonly from the start,
and it is now mainly known by that
name.
Now, what is the Swedish system of
cream raising? 1t is simply getting the
milk at or near the temperature at which
drawn and quickly reducing it to 45 de-
gre4s. Milk when drawn is at the tenn
perature of about SO degrees, and the
nearer 1t is TO that temperature when
set, the better the results will be. But
if it is not allowed to fail below 80 de-
grees, before setting, the results will be
satisfactory, if prompt and proper re-
duction of perature of the milk is
produced.
1t must not be understood that all, or
practically all, the cream, cannot be
raised if the milk is allowed to drop to
lower degree than 80 before setting, for
| it can be done. But IN such practice it
may be necessary to cool it to a lower
temperature and perhaps little longer
time allowed for the cream to come up.
BY practically all the cream is meant
all but trace of butter fat and in fact
all that is of any practical value for but
ter. Some of the very smallest of the
butter globules are of no practical value.
and they are the iaSt to come up.
Failures to secure all the cream by the
practice of the Swedish system, or at
tempt to practice II, have resulted only
when it has been improperly practi led.
And the most common cause for such
failures has been the lack of proper re-
duction of temperature. Many seem to
think that if the water is at 45 degrees,
that is all that is required. Now the
water in which the cans Of milk are set,
may be at the start 45 degrees, but as
soon as it has equalized temperature
with the milk it's power for cream rails
ing has been expended, and it cannot ac-
compliSh more in that direcLlon. The
only thing then to be done, is to either
change the water or put IN ice. 1t
before the TWO fluids equalize tempera-
ture. If ice is used 1T is of course bet
ter to put en- )ugh OF 1T in at the start 10
reduce the milk to As degrees.
The Swedish system of cream raising
can be practiced in any kind of sheet
metal can, the diameter, or width of
which, is not 700 great-abOut eight and
one-half inches should be the limit Of
diameter for round can, or width of

Editor Florida Agriculturist:

Editor Florida Agriculturist:
We thought we were hurt by the
freeze of December, but that was not u
circumstance to that of February 9Th.
Trees were coming out fast, with bloom
buds showing and we were rejoicing
that our trees could stand an 18o cold
and come out so we'll with so little loss
OF wood on bearing trees. But, alas, we
did not know what was in store for US.
The next freeze caught them with the
sap freely flowing, and no leaf protec-
tion from the blazing sun. Consequent
ly, the loss of wood is hundreds of times
greater than from the fruit. Trees, even
eight inches in diameter, are killed to
the ground, while buds, capable of bear
ing to 10 boxes are killed way back on
their large limls.
This is SO mething entirely new in my
orange growing experience. | have
been familiar with seeing trees two and
three inches in diameter killed 10 the
ground, and had learned Just what to do
with such; that Was, not to saw them off
down to the ground but to leave them
with stock three or four feet high to
tie the growing sprouts to. The fol-
lowing year cut If the old stock in the
green wood, leaving one shoot only to
make the future tree. This | advised in
an article in your paper before the sec
ond freeze, as only small trees, as rule,
were killed to the grouud, then. That
adviceis still good for the small trees,
and | am following it.
But when it comes to the large trees,
since the last freeze, the conditions are
entirely different. I am saving off all
bodies and limbs back to the green wood
just as fast as can. But as can spare
but little time from my garden and field
crops, it will be late in the season before
can get around to all of it. [ waited
until the line between the live and
green was we'll defined before beginning,
then cut we'll down in the green wood,
and try to leave no limbs dead on one
side to make sickly growth to be cut
out later. [ thought at first to cut
about two feet above the green line to
leave sOmt thing to tie to, but decided
that it would make two jobs of cutting
where one was best, and the danger OF
the sprouts blowing off would be cOuD
ter balanced by the damage done by the
sawyer working down in the green
wood, and by the loss and inconvenience
in making the second cutting one or two
years later. The sawyers are already
very numerous.
The plan am following is this: go
through with knife and test the bod
les, making mark where to cut if the
body is dead. These are sawed off with
cross cut saw. On those that save
their bodies the limbs are tested and
sawed off below any dead bark with a
pruning saw, The under side is sawed

ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

Rev. J. r. Reynolds, pastor of the NJ.
E. Church, who believes in being
abreast with the times, delivered a
lecture Sunday evening to fair sized
audience on Abrahams Lincoln. His
eulogy of the man was excellent and
the sentiments expressed were in keep
ing with the high character the subject
of his lecture possessed. We revere
his memory and call back the attributes
of him who did more for the elevation
Of mankind than anyone before his
time or since His honesty and
integrity are deserving of emulation
and too much cannot be said in his
honor.
When the compiler of the ''Dictionary
of Congress" asked Mr.. Lincoln for a
sketch of his life, in 1858, he received
the following reply: Born Feb. -,
1909, in Hardin county, Kentucky.
Education defective. Profession, Il
lawyer. A captain of volunteers in
Black Hawk war. Postmaster at very
small Ofhce. -Four times member OF
the Illinois legislature, and was MEM
ber of the lower house of congress.
Yours, ETC., A. LINCoLn.' The above
sketch characterizes the man. There
can be nothing more expressive of the
character of Mr. Lincoln. 1t shows
the modesty of a truly great man, and
it seems to point out the secret which
makes this character so dear to the
American nation. There may have
been great statesmen and generals in
the history of other nations, but there
certainly never has been truer man,
and never a greater or grander one,
with such modesty and simplicity
qualities which touch the heart and
arouse admiration and emulation among
his cOuutrymen
