believe civilized society as now or
ganized recognizes the propriety under
certain circum stances of deceiving
other people. To deceive others in
craftsmanship is called diplomacy. To
deceive the enemy in war is called
strategy. To deceive others in business
is called financiering. To deceive in
love is coquetry. To deceive ourselves
has no special nomenclature but the gen.
eral term idocv will do very we'll
There, doubtless, are means of grace
provided for those who indulge in d.
plomacY, strategy, finance and even
coquetry, but for deliberate and inten-
tional idiocy there can be no atone
ment.
In approaching this subject of the
future of Florida horticulture Whatever
else we may do) do not deceive our
selves.
The opJimist cannot be allowed to sit
in this court. His place is in regions
above. The pessimist is disqualified.
His place is in regions below. In look
ing at the wrecks Of our groves we ad-
mire the man who has courage, but we
lean upon and trust and follow the man
who has discretion. The bull chat tried
to butt locomotive off the track had
magnificent courage, but one with more
discretion now leads the herd The
topics that usually have occupied our
time will have diminished interest.
The transportation and marketing of
our orange, lemon and pineapple crops
are settled for the present. With cour-
age to face cOnQuerable obstacles, with
discretion to avoid irresistible disaster
and unjustifiable risks, let us counsel
together concerning the future of Flor
ida horticulture and whatever we do
let us not deceive ourselves. This now
is the burning question.
In view of the recent disasters is it
judicious for a man to engage in Flor
ida horticulture?
Is Florida horticulture Of such a kind
that man will be justified in giving his
capital and best thought and energies to
making it business success? There
are thousands of people in Florida and
elsewhere who are anxious for an answer.
The press of the State with prac tical
unanimity have already answered this
in the negative. Their verdict is that
Florida horticulture is so extra hazard
Gus that it should only be INDUCED in as
secondary crop after producing some
thing to eat.
In other words the tone of all the Flor.
ida press seems to be that a man who
spends a large part of his time and
thought and study in growing corn, pea
nuts, chufas, razor-backs and crab grass
and few oranges will be more wise and,
consequently, more successful than one
who devotes his entire energy and skill
and time to the economical production
of horticultural product of the highest
excellence. If this is so we all want to
know it. If it is true that a man who
spends half his time in growing pigs and
peanuts can grow fine fruit and success
fully compete with one who makes fine
fruit a life study, we want to know it.

cultural Society.
In the year 1854, had the honor to
be elected president Of our county agri
cultural society. That was forty-one
years ago. During most of that forty
one years, it has been my fortune to be
connected with county, State and Ma
tional agricultural and horticultural or
CARNATIONS in an official capacity. In
this line of duty it has thus very often
happened that | had something to say
on public occasions, and | assure YOU
that it has always been very pleasant
duty at such times to address my brother
tillers of the soil. Especially has this
been the case at the annual meetings of
the Florida State Horticultural Society,
for our society and our business have
been such that it has been an unalloyed
pleasure to express pride at our past
progress, satisfaction at our present po-
sition and bright hope for our future ad-
vancement.
Representing as we have the most
prominent industry of the State, one
that was growing and commanding in
creased attention, it was easy and pleas
ant to talk
When | say for the last decade horti-
culture has been the most prominent in
dustry of the State it is not said in dis,
arrangement of any of her other great in
dustrieS. fully recognize that her cot
ton is fine and silky, her corn grows tall,
her cane grows sweet, yet the fact is
patent that Florda's fame at home and
abroad has been builded and rests upon
the delicious horticultural products that
only Florida sunshine and Florida
showers can bring to the acme of per-
lection.

This is the state of man: today he puts forth
The tender leaves of hopes tom orrow, blossoms
And bears his blushing honors thick upon him.

And when he thinks. good easy man, full surely

And then he falls as 7 Go have ventured
Like little wanton boys that swim on badders
This many summers in a sea of glory;
But far bevond my depth: my high blown pride
At length broke under and now has left me.
Today, instead Of enjoying this op-
portunity to address you, approach
the task with sadness and uncertainty
am at loss what to say-but am sure
there are thousands in our State that
are silently asking the question "Where
am | att"
From my present point of view that
should be the first question answered by
this society. Disguise it as we may,
belittle it as some do, it is solemn fact
that a terrible calamity has oefallen the
horticulture of our State.

A sensation is brewing in the board Of

remarks not very complimentary 10 Profs

Among other things. Belcher said that he
had been showed out of his position as tu-

Prof. Hooper was merely a tool in the
hands OF Prof. Bocock. This letter was
sent to Prof. Bocock. and on being laid
before the faculty led to Belchers
expulsion. Belcher has carried
the matter before the board Of trustees
and asks them to overrule the action of
the faculty and give him his diploma. Z
such action is taken by the board there

FLORIDA's ORANGES.
The Crop of 1896 Estimated at 1,OOO,-
900 boxes.


Jacksonville, Fla, June 13.-The annual
meeting of the Florida Fruit Exchange
was held to-day, with over 1000 shares
represented. For some time it has been
rumored that the exchange would tempo
rarily suspend business because of lack of
oranges, but the stockholders took an en-
couraging view of the situation. and it
was decided to continue.
President Fairbanks, in his annual adj
dress, estimated that the orange crop OF
1896 would be what it was in 1886, or about
100000 boxes. He also felt that the old
groves would recover to their anti-freeze
bearing capacity inside Of five years. The
serious question confronting the exchange,
he said, was whether the risk of freezes is
not too great. He argued that it was
not, saying that only twice in 200 years
had the temperature in Florida fallen
lower than it did this year. The orange
tree had not only developed its ability to
withstand unusual cold for Florida but
that it could also live through unprece-
denied cold. not, however, without sur
fering some damage.
The orange grower he said had been
menaced by insects that threatened to
ruin all the prospects. but he has solved
the problem, and even when the problem
was unsolved the crop increased year by
year. He was now on the eve of the most
successful era of ALL
