entage of the Jaffa which is undoubtedly
a Seeding of Malta Blood slightly crossed
with some other orange. The Jaffa is
too we'll known to need extended notice.
Having fruit of superlative excellence,
fair stamina and heavy bea ring habit
it will always remain favorite mid
season variety. Majorca somewhat re-
sembles Jaffa but is much later in rip
ening and has not so pronounced bear
Ing habit. Malta Egg, Long and Oblong
appear to be seedlings Of Malta Blood,
with the blood left out and somewhat
more vigor of growth and uniformity of
size in fruitage. They resemble Jaffa
in quality and having handsome distinc-
tive shapes are desirable.
Prata and White are distinctive in
appearance showing grapefruit cross in
parentage. They are of good growing
and fruiting habits and fair quality of
fruit but the public do not seem to fancy
very lig It colored oranges.
Star Calyx also has the large diStin c.
tive calyx of the Shaddock family but is
not a supNrlatjve orange.
Mediterranean Sweet (Garey's) Malta
Oval and Valencia Late are practically
synonyms there being no more difference
than would naturally arise from long
propagation under differing soil and eli
matte conditions with chances of bud
variation.
They are evidently Malta Blood Or
anges affected by lemon or Portugal Or
ange crossing and make low compact
trees that bear smooth skinned solid fine
favored fruit which holds up till late
in the season but on young trees wastes
badly from splitting in autumn. With
the other Maltas they require intensive
culture to make trees of size and pro.
duce large crops.
At the Worlds Fair California dis
played two Valencia Latas, one was
Hart's Late and the other a Malta Oyal.

Practical Experience on Muck Land.

Editor Florida Agricu1turist:
Perhaps a little sketch of my expe'
rience in preparing and raising different
crops on muck land will be of some in
terest to the readers of your valuable
paper.
In the fall of 1886 commenced work
to clear and ditch piece of muck
which lies north of the St. Cloud sugar
farm, public road dividing.) had two
kinds of muck-saw grass and maiden
cane, no bonnet. It was so early after
east Lake Tohopekallga was drained
that it was impossible to put team on
this land in the spring of '97 without
begging in some places By digging
with grub and wedding hoes we man
aged to get in over one acre in Irish po-
tatoes, about four acres in rice and a
little corn. When the potatoes began
to bloom. land 1t did not take them long

Intensive Farming.

The doctrine Of smaller farms is gain
ing ground in every AGRICULTURAL
section of the world. In the irrigated
fields of the West many great men are
satisfied on the income from twenty
acre farm. The noted president of the
Mormon church-W -Wilford W Woodruff boasts
of the fact that he has lived comfor-
tably and supported good sized family
for forty years on twenty acre farm.
His experience is being duplicated
throughout the entire area of arid
America. A farm of twenty acres gives
all the employment necessary and
always returns ample profits on the
investment.
A day of better tillage has arrived
The bread acres of half cultivated land
yielding only the annual taxes must
give away to the rich fertilized fields
returning two hundredfold profit on
the outlay. The land is being cultivated
for profit more than at any other time In
the history of our country, In south

to do that, for they grew just like they
were planted in an old rotten straw pile
in Tennessee) frost came sufficient to
stop their growth, so dug them and
sold some at Sc per barrel. l planted
the patch to COW peas, there being
nothing in the wav, so the pea vines
spread themselves until the ground was
literally covered about three feet deep,
after which they would fruit and fall.
Then fresh growth would rise and put
on new crop of peas and when we
gathered the vines for hay it reminded
me Of skinning beef, for one would
have to take hook or potato fork and
roll or push the vines over while an
other would cut them off at the ground,
they were so immense.
The corn did well, considering the
freshness of the soil from the drainage.
The rice grew until when it hardened
out it was about five feet high or more.
1t matured good heavy rice. The husk
or cbaff, 1 noticed, did not cover the
grain. Ihad to keep someone in the rice
all the day time to shoot the birds to
keep them from eating it up, and with
all efforts put forth they ate some Of it
so badly that would not cut about half
an acre, and when they turned on the
shocks it seemed impossible to keep them
off till | could haul it to the thresher,
which turned out to me seventy-four
bushels of ruff rice after the birds ate
fully half the entire crop.
l will continue this line of exp rience
from time to time until | bring it down
to the present, if so desired, and will
not only give my experience, but that
which has come under my own observa.

81 per Annum, in adVanC

ten acres yields more than the ordinary
western farm of quarter section.
Utah's small farms have supplanted the
old land grubbing theories and now are
beginning to make two blades of grass
grow where but one has grown before.
The practice of close, careful farming
is rapidly becoming general and as a
result the farms are in better condition
the products are of more value and the
people are more wealthy and contented.
The small farm with it's fruit trees
and vines and perpetual meadow S rotated
with intensive cultivation is the devel-
opment of the future. This neces-
states better grade of stock, more
improved machinery and higher state
of fertilization. The farmer should
get out of the old net of dilapidation.
His clothing should be as good and
comfortable as his business neighbors.
He should have as good food as any
class of people on earth. His carriages
should be as handsome and durable as
those used by. the professional men.
The farmers children should be as
happy, as we'll educated and as much
respected as any children in the world.
All these hoped for changes can and
will come with the advent of the small
we'll titled farm.
The man with a small farm is the
most independent of the whole human
family. He produces all that his family
requires and supplies a surplus to his
neighbors in the adjoining cities and
towns. The market is made better be-
cause so many small farmers compete
and vie with each other for the honors
in business. Small farms are better
cared for, the health of the people liv-
ing upon and around small farms is
better because of better sanitary regula-
tions. The facilities for schools, society
and other moral and educational advan-
tages are doubled by the existence of
small farms. A new era has come and
is rapidly gaining progress in he West
and East and that is the era of the small
farm.

Making Butter in Hot Weather

Hot weather is what tries the butter
makers metal. It is we'll nigh impossi-
BILE to succeed in making really fine
article without ice. The next best
thing is spring of cold water running
through the milk room. Next to this is
a wind mill attached to the well in such
a manner as to have tank Of fresh
water in which to set the milk and
cream. Next is the cool cellar and milk
set in open pans.
Eternal vigilance is indeed the price
of success in making good butter when
the thermometer registers up in the
nineties or even the eighties.

Varieties of Oranges. No. 8.
sHADDOCK OR MALTA ORANGES.

Varieties OF Oranges. No. s.
sHADDOCK OR MALTA ORANGES.
This strain of oranges having a com
plex three sided origin and development
offers a greater diversity of appearance
and flavor than the two previous strains
which in many cases have mixed with
and modified them.
The egg shaped Malta Blood orange In
my opinion is the type and elimination
of the hybrids of tie wild citron that
reach back through the Shaddocks and
KumQuats TO Limonia acidissima.
The Malta Blood is a very fine orange,
thin skinned, almost seedless, most brisk
and aromatic in flavor with red splashed
peel and ruby colored pulp, yet it can
not be recommended for general culture
as it is more susceptible to cold than
many other varieties, is apt to bear
under sized fruit and the tree is deficient
in stamina.
Imperial Blood is evidently a cross OF
Malta Blood showing citron or citrou or
ange influence 1t is round in form nd
usually edible as soon AS cOlored. The
tree is fair grower and bearer.
Boone or as advertised Boone's Early
is an anomaly. 1t bears resem blan ce
in texture and flavor to the Malta Bloods
or their direct cross|s but is of light
colored peel and reminds strongly of
grape fruit which is first cousin OF the
Shaddock. Not only do the oil cells of
the peel resemble the grape fruit but
the core and seed arrangement are sim
liar and both peel and tissue have a
slightly bitter flavor.
Being seeding evidently of strong
cross the type is not well established as
some specimens are silky and almost
seedless while others are coarser, quite
seedy and show numerous seed rudi-
ments. AS the only fruit exhibited has
been from the parent tree which may be
growing under abnormal conditions the
variety can hardly be recommended
with certainty as an extra early variety
for general planting without further
testing of fruit grown in different To-
calities and under different conditions
of soil and culture. Sanford's Sweet
Blood and AmorY's Blood are round
bloods of good Stamina and fruitfulness
and are edibley mature from first to
middle of December when in full bear
ing but do not usually show sanguineous
pulp till midwinter which may be said
of all bloods in Florida.
Ruby and Saul's Blood are also round
bloods maturing in midwinter and St..
Michaels Blood in March. A meritor-
ious round blood is the Knickerbocker
originating with Mr.. A. F. Styles, jack
sonville. Jaffa Blood is bud variation
detected by Rev. Lyman Phelps from a
Jaffa i'm ported by Gen. Sanford. 1t re-
sembles quite closely Malta Blood but
has more stamina and is more prolific.
1t is also interesting as showing par
