VARIETIES IN DEMAND.

For some time there has been consider
able curiosity as to the varieties of Cit
rus trees being used to replace dead stock
or buds in the orange grove. This curl
osity resulted in many inquiries to this
Office and knowing no better way OF OBJ
tanning the desired information we COM
municated directly with the leading nur-
serymen of the State.
There appears to have been a general
impression that there was an abnormal
demand for the pomelo, and that many
of the frozen orange buds would be re-
placed with those of grape fruit. This
imp ression, from the following commu'
nications, seems to have been without
foundation. The following is copy of
our letter of inquiry to the Florida nur
serymen:
DEAR SIR:-Has the demand for Grape
] fruit buds or trees exceeded any one va

PARSON BROWN A FAVORITE.

Editor Florida Agriculturist:
Yours Of Goth received requesting an
answer Of your questions which shah
gladly give.
While the demand for grape fruit has
been large, yet it has been much larger
for orange, and it has been mostly for
early varieties. ! think the orders have
received will run 60 per cent for Parson
Brown orange and very small per cent
tor Harris Tardlff and Tangerines.
am afraid growers are planting too
much in the early orange. There seems
to be no demand for lemons. Have sold
only so trees and no budding wood.

CASSAVA PRODUCTS.

In another column we publish an in
teresting article from one of our most
valued exchanges-tha Barlow Courier
Informant. The AGRICULTURIsT still
thinks that cassava is great product
for Florida, and in the past we have had
much to say of it, Of course the farmer
in looking for a money crop has little at
present to encourage him to raise cas-
sava as there is no market for the roots,
but if he considers the worth of the pro-
duct for home consumption he will not
ignore this valuable, but we regret to
say, sadly neglected crop.
Cassava is plant Of great possibilities,
and if factories could be established in
different sections for manufacturing
the various articles of commerce that
can be made from the roots, it would
bring cash in abundance to the pockets
of the growers.
The list of articles that are rated as
staple commodities of commerce that
can be manufactured from the roots of
the cassava, Is a long one. OF course
these products are not made exclusively
from the cassava, but experiments have
shown that they can be made cheaper
and better from these roots than from
other sources. The simple item Of
starch alone is big one. The root of
the cassava is nearly all starch, and the
process of extracting it is simple and in
expensive.
A factory with considerable capacity
could be established and operated at
small expense, and we have been rather
surprised that some of our enterprising
communities have not gone into the
business of starch manufacture before.
The people in comm unity could club
together and purchase the plant at small
individual cost, and it could then be
operated on the central factory plan.
We are confident that an enterprise Of
this kind, in almost any section OF the
State, with the proper cooperation,
would prove profitable.
Besides the starch that can be made
from the root of the cassava, tapioca is
another valuable product. Then comes
glucose, flour, alcohol, and after every
thing apparently is taken from the roots
that is apparently of any value the re-
siduum in the form of coarse meal is by
no means waste product, as it is valua-
BILE for stock food, being very nutritious
and greatly relished by the animals.

WAITING FOR WINTER RESULTS.

Editor Florida Agriculturist:
Your inquiries Of the Goth inst, at
hand and in reply will say do not think
the demand for trees is equal to last
year or even the year before. A great
many correspondents have informed me
that they prefer to wait to see what this
winter will give us in the shape of
freezes; and l think, provided this win.
ter is comparatively mild one, that the
demand will severely tax the supply.

DEMAND FOR POMELO THE SAME.

Editor Florida Agriculturist:
Replying yours of the 10Th inst: l
think the demand for pomelo is rela-
lively about the same as before the
freeze. In varieties of oranges there is
certainly a much stronger demand for
early ripening sorts than heretofore.
With us the demand for Satsuma, and
particularly Satsuma on Trifoliata, is
greater than for any other citrus.

EARLY VARIETIES IN DEMAND.

Editor Florida Agriculturist:
In reply to your inquery as to the de-
mand for Pomelo buds as compared with
any one variety of orange can give you
no data, for have not advertised or Of
fered Pomelo buds for sale. Ihave ad-
vertised Tardiff, Dancy Tangerine,
Jaffa, M. Blood aud Navel.
Orders came in about the following
proportions:
Harris Tardiff 30 per cent, Dancy Tan
gerine 30 per cent, Jaffa Is per cent and
the remaining rs per cent made up of
M. Blood, NJ. Sweet and few Navels.
But you see that this percentage is
from the standpoint of one who adver-
tised the above varieties only. But
what would be Of more service to you,
would be such information as | have
gained upon this subject through a
rather heavy correspondence throughout
the season; from which | should make
the following guess as to the varieties to
which stocks are being budded this
year.
Early varieties IS per cent, IS per cent
of which is Parson Brown, and from Is
per cent to 90 per cent each of Harris
Tardiff, Dancy Tangerine and Grape
fruit, with the last probably in the lead.
This you see, leaves but little room for
other varieties and think that the early
varieties, especially Parson Brown, Tar
diff, Tangerine and Pomelo will con-
stitute the bulk of the future Florida
orange crop. In com petition with the
Tangerine the Manderin is left out in
the cold, or rather the cold has left it
out. CYRUS w. BUTLER

The following replies were received.
NO INCREASE oFPOMELO.
Editor Florida Agriculturist:
Your esteemed favor of October 26
came duly to hand. In answer to your
inquiry, "Has the demand for grape
fruit buds or trees exceeded any one va
riety of Granger" No it has not ex-
ceeded any one leading variety. At
first the demand for pomelo was greatly
in excess Of the orange, but after few
articles had been written and published
in the papers stating such to be the case
there was a sudden falling off of the de-
mand for pomelo and calls for leading
choice varieties Of orange were greatly
in demand. Of the old Florida sorts
such as Homosassa, Magnum Bonum,
Nonpariei and Mediterranean Sweet
there are very few calls. Our largest
orders are for Parson Brown, Boones
Early and Centennial as early sorts,
Pineapple for midwinter and Harris
Tardlff, King and St. Michael Blood for
late varieties. OF the pomelo the Seed
less and Josselyn for large and Triumph
for small fruit. We have received a
few calls for Mandarin and Satsuma
also quite demand for Dancy Tanger-
inc.
We are surprised that there is no more
demand from South Florida for lemons.
If there was money in lemons before the
freeze there certainly is now, when all
old groves are cut down and many Of
them being budded over to orange and
pomelo.
We think the growers in each orange
anu lemon growing section of the State
should choose fewer varieties and those
which proved before the freeze most adj
apted to their particular section. When
their groves should commence fruiring
the growers could consolidate their ship
ments, thereby shipping in carloads Of
certain varieties when fully ripe, and
knowing that whatever portion of the
lot should be examined nothing but nice
fruit would be found, and if each section
should adopt branch of their own it
would be quickly recognized each sea-
son as the Indian river and Halifax river
oranges were before the freeze. From
our correspondence with some Of the
leading commission men there was a
tendency before the freeze for smaller
grape fruit the Hucksters thereby get
ting more dozens to the box.

PEANUTS have yielded we'll in Florida

are afflicted with only 40 per cent crop, the
Florida growers, notwithstanding the planting
was largely experimental, are blessed with an
abundant harvest. The pity is the acreage was
