ging for better terms than those agreed
upon. The mass of foreign fruit is sell
ing at low figures, and suits the market
Just as we'll, and makes it impossible for
the California fruit to be marketed at
the figures asked for it. Up to the time
of writing only Is per cent of the Cali
fornia seedlings and 35 per cent of the
navels had been marketed. The entire
crop is about 1000, 900 boxes. My cor
respondent does not speak favorably of
the management of the Exchange. He
thinks it is ''school boy'' work from be-
ginning to end. He concludes by saying
that the bulk OF the crop will How be
handled by com mission men as hereto
fore. He also says it is now admitted
there that had there been no freeze in
Florida the California growers would
have shipped more cars and realized
more money for their fruit.
This result can onlv be regretted by
us here. In the first place we are sorry
that some one has not prOfited by our
disaster 1t seems that neither growers
nor dealers have yet done so. In the
second place we are eagerly watching
the result oil the most thorough organi-
zation of orange growers that has ever
been made in this country. In all this
there is food for serious reflection.

years. First, we tried corn and oats.
That was good, although rather an ex-
pensive feed. When we began to cast
about for substitute for oats one year
when they were 40 cents bushel, we
tried wheat bran, and thought so highly
of 1t that we have used it ever since. So
after fixing upon that, we tried roots, but
not discarding the bran Roots are gOoo
to eat dry food for the entire winter
They are good for her system generally,
and also good milk ration, but | can't
say tn IT we find them of special benefit,
and they are hard to raise. After feed
ing corn, oats and bran for years, we
were induced to try gluten feed and with
us it has come to stay. We feed it with
wheat bran and nothing else in the line
of grain. care not whether it is bal
anced ration or not our COWS give more
milk and make more butter when fed
corn fodder, wheat bran and gluten meal
than any other combination we have yet
tried. Buck wheat middlings is good, 50
is cotton seed meal. but as long as we
continue to follow dairying, wheat bran
and Buffalo gluten will be our standard
grain ra tion for milch COWS. 1t is not
only the best but the cheapest. This
may not suit everybody's ideas, but 1t
does ours. E. e. RoCKwoOD.

Pear Blight in West Florida.
DeLand. Fla.

The calamities of the Wint er seem not
to have ended with the coming Of spring.
Blight is now making it's appearance on
the pear trees. There has been no re-
cent cold to have affected the trees since
blooming. They are in full leaf and
have set great deal of fruit, but e
twigs are in some of the trees turning
black and the leaves drying up. This is
the case with my own trees, | bav' not
heard of others, as only noticed the ap-
pearance of disease few days ago 1t
IS not very bad yet, but hardly expect
it to stop till much damage is done. AS
we have used a great deal OF hard wood
for fuel during the winter. have ap
piled ashes as literally as could to the
orchard, hoping by this means to obvlate
the necessity for expensive potash.
fear, though, this was not sufficient and
that the trees are starving for want of
it. had my orchard plowed in Nov
ember but have had no cultivation done
since as the trees are so close together
the limbs lap. They are twenty feet
apart, but that is not room enough.
Would it be beneficial to plow on the
outside now and apply potash or lime
and stable manure The trees are ten
years old. l read all | can find on the
subject but it is confusing;I don't know
what to accept. Il. B. G.

The California Combine Proved Unpro-
6table.

Editor Florida Agriculturist:
| am in receipt of letter from a
friend now in California which may
prove of interest to your readers. He is
dealing in oranges there now but is we'll
known to the Florida growers and is
thoroughly reliable. The letter bears
date of April 18th. will not quote his
exact words since the letter is long one
and is in part concerning other matters
The substance of it, so fa1 as it refers to
oranges. is as follows:
Immediately after our December
freeze the California Exchange, which
controlled the bulk of the crop, fixed a
very high price on fruit. The importers
of fruit through the north combined
and, instead of sending men and money
to California, at once sent both to the
Mediterranean country, and from that
time to this have flooded the markets
with cheaper foreign fruit. California
was let severly alone. Some few fruit
dealers rushed out there and, falling
in with the idea of the California grow
ers that there were no other oranges for
the eastern market, bought heavily at
high prices. They have steadily lost
money on their purchases. Many of
such purchasers have abandoned their
contracts, stopped shipping and left the
State. Those having honor and means
enough to impel them to go on are doing
so at n loss, are shipping slowly and beg

Japanese Nuts.

great deal of interest has been de-
veloped within the past few years in the
growth of Japanese fruits and nuts in
the United States.
The Japan Persimmon and the japan
Plum (better known as Kelsey PLUMP
have both proven very valuable, and
can be grown in almost all sections.
The Unshui or seedless orange is a fine
table orange; very juicy. very few seeds
and late keeping.
The Japan m ammoth sweet chestnut
is remarkable for it's great size and fine
flavor; in three respects superior to any
other. 1t is handsome sturdy, healthy
tree; of the most useful that can be
grown. 1t grows in the northern part of
Japan and has proven to be sufficiently
hardy almost anywhere in the United
States.
! Many people are deferred from plant
ing nut bearing trees from the thought
that fifteen or sixteen years would
elapse before bringing the tree into
bearing condition, while in fact the ia
pan mammoth sweet chestnut tree bears
fruit at three or lour years of age.
The size of the nut is remarkable,
some weighing one and One-half ounces.
The Japan walnut is also an early bearer;
that and the thin shell pecan bearing at
five to six years of age.
The leaf of the Japan chestnut is long
and narrow, like peach leaf, of dark
green color, making a very ornamental
lawn tree; being also we'll adapted for
avenues or for shade, scattered on the
grounds or fields.
A great advantage possessed by this
chestnut is their maturing early and
without the aid of frost to open The
burrs. The large size of the nuts and
their sweetness, makes them favorite
in the markets, where the earlier sales
are from So to $40 per bushel. They are
dwarf tree and begin to bear when
three or four feet high.
Being SO much larger than any of the
American, French, Spanish or Italian
varieties, their size will sell them read
lily.
We think the Japan chestnut has a
bright future IN America.
Like our native chestnuts, they do not
require the richest soil, but will grow
we'll upon any soil good enough for
other trees. To sum up their good
qualities; they are mammoth in size,
very sweet, fruit young, great and uni
form annual production, attractive nuts
of good quality, ripening early: all of
which they possess to remarkable de-
gree and have no off years. Can be
planted in nursery and transplanled
when year old.
The Japan walnuts are also an excel
lent importation and are of two kinds.

Hints to Beginners in Dairying.

Hints to Beginners in Dairying.
One of the most important things for
the dairyman's consideration is the SUBJ
iect of foods. To succeed In obtaining
the greasest possible amount of butter
from the smallest amount OF money or
it's equivalent, he needs to make the sub
iect one of much study.
Progressive dairying at the present
time seems to call for sllo. Indeed,
many of our authorities on the subject
claim that in no other way can the full
value of the food consumed be realized.
Now no one can rely more fully than
the writer of this upon the corn crop as
winter (and summer, too, for that mat
Aer) food for cattle, especially milch
cows. We begin to feed it in july OF
August when pastures fail to give suffi'
cent grass, and continue until fall rains
make further use of 1T unnecessary

conclusion thai, aside from the first cost
which is considera BILE, there must be a
frequent renewal of some portions of il
every year, thus making the mainte-
nance of one a continual expense. We
have, however, very good substitute
for one, which will tell you of, and the
cost is nothing but little work and q
few boards.
We cut our corn stalks as we need them
with feed cutter, after drawing them
to the barn IN the fall and stacking In
small stacks outside. The fodder is al
ways secured in good condition and be
fore it becomes weather beaten and dis
colored.
AS the stalks after cutting will de-
velop considerable heat even when drv,
we only cut sufficient at once for a
couple of weeks feeding. We have a
tight floor and sides in convenient cor
stable where we mix the stalks and the
ground feed in layers, sprinkling we'll

The Wrestling Match.

The wrestling match which came of
on New Years afternoon between Al
mond Giles and James w. Pasooe was
witnessed by about hundred people,
all of whom felt well repaid for their
admission fee, for it WAS well con-
tested affair between two men who have
both held championships in their class
es.
The exhibition was opened by con-
test between two amateurs, John Black
we'll and Joe Prout, who each secured
fall after several interesting bitches
and some very pretty work.
When the two principals stepped on
to the canvas the difference in their
weight and length of reach was noticed
but was fairly made up by the difference
in their ages, Pascoe having bad on the
Cornish wrestling jacket before Giles
had got into knick erbrokers. From the
first, Giles apparently made all the
plays and his activity and skill showed
him to be wonder; but he was over
matched in strength by one equally
well up in all the arts of Cornish wrest-
ling. Several bitches were made before
fall was secured by Pascoe.
Between unsuccessful bitches and
waits more than an hour was thus con-
sumed in which many pretty plays were
made with only one fall for
Pascoe, when finally Giles made
a quick turn to save himself and
wrenched his side, hurting him so that
he gave up the contest and Pascoe was
declared winner, as he had been in al
most every contest he has entered for
the past twenty years. Had Giles not
been hurt it would have probably have
taken several hours for Pascoe to have
two more falls, it being evident
however, that the match would have
terminated in his favor, anyway.

Looks Suspicious.

It is very true saying that in adver-
sity we find who our true friends are.
A man may go on in the even tenor OF
his way for years without really know
iEg what his neighbors think of him.
Occasionally something will occur to
make him wonder IT, his neighbors think
he is really such good fellow as, in his
estimation, they should. A case to the
point occurred this week. Frank Cros-
son has been the sole owner, manager
and guardian of one turkey gobbler that
has been roosting on our wood pile since
early last spring. On New Years day
the NUGGET force went to "batching,n
and Frank at once developed an extra
ordinary appetite FORECAST turkey which
only this particular gobbler could APP
pease. Now we are satisfied tnat if we
hadn't gone to 'batching," that COB
bier would still be roosting on our wood
pile at night and making the gulch
ring with his joyous gobble in the day
time.

aged about 80 years.
Deceased had been working in the
DeLamar Mill for the past two months.
He was born in Iowa, where, it was
learned, he has sister now residing,
his father being in San Jose, Cal. He
was known to several miners here, hav-
ing worked with him in British Column
bia and on Wood River. Not antici-
pating his death, be had left no mes
ssges for his friends and what little is
known of his antecedants was gathered
in casual conversation. He was quiet
reticent man and we'll liked by those
who worked with him, He was buried
by the DeLamar Company on Wednes-
day,
