EXCITING PRACTICE GAMES

The bowlers of the Palma Club got I'm
another good nights work on the alleys
last evening. Another very exciting series
was bewled in the team Quincy, and the
members put up some remarkably high
scores. The interest is strong and the
competition has been of a very success
full nature thus far, more SO h q any
that has been held at the club alleys in
several seasons. The result will be bene-
fetal to the success Of bowling at the
club, and the season just begun promises
to be of a lively nature. The work will
succeed in giving the bowlers to com
pete in the m of the Amateur Bowl
Ing Association practice and will better
fit them for the work ahead of them.
In addition to this 1t will give the COM
mittee in charge an opportunity to select
the men best qualified by reason of their
averages to fill the ten places on the
Palma's league team. In the games last
night Team 4 succeeded in winning a
double portion of victories and holds a
strong lead for the championship. The
team a won every game bowfed and
their work has been of q fine order.
SHOULD they Uphold the pace cut out and
there is very little chance of their being
beaten In their first game with Team
s the members had a very hard battle
and were only successful in pulling their
game out by ten pins. Throughout the
game 4 had a big lead. but the strong
windup enabled S to reauee 1t to 10 pins
at the end. Thu team reserved its strength
for the Anal game with Team 8, and 1t
Is well they did. Team s rolled strongly
and put up a good average, but the
cleverness of Pendexter and Mecloskey
sent their scores beyond the 200 notch,
n enabled their team TO peat all totals
for the tournament with a score Of 1856.
The bowling of Pendextsr was the feature
of the night. On the losing side Cop

FLAVORING TOBACCO.

The treatment of tobacco after it is grown
will be an absorbing question with many
of our people this fall. A correspondent
of one of our exchanges writes for recipe
for preparing homemade tobacco for home
use. In replying our contemporary says:
"The particular kind of home use" is
not here stated. The different brands Of
manufactured tobacco stand for so many
different forms of treatment for smoking
and chewing One way of havoring to-
bacco is "by means of a mixture of one
part each of lemon peel, orange peel, figs,
coeiander seed and sassafras; one.half part
each of elder flowers, elder berries and
cinnamon; two parts of salt-petre, three of
salt and four of sugar This mixture must
be digested in fifty parts of water. and be-

FLORIDA CELERY.

Florida has so many and varied indus
tries that it is almost impossible to compre-
bend their extent or value, and every year
something new is being added to the list.
Kalamazoo has won the reputation Of pro-
ducing the most and best celery in the
United States. 1t still holds the former
but Florida is now contending for the latter
and we feel confident that it will not be
many years before large quantities of de-
licious celery will be shipped north at a
time when the crop Of all other states has
been exhausted.
1t was not very long since that celery
growing was considered almost impractic-
able in Florida, but the development in the
last year or two shows that it only requires
the proper treatment and putting on the
proper land to have it luxuriate in all the
wealth of growth and favor that it attains
in the more northern states. Nearly all OF
the kindred developments of Florida have
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1896-04-29

been slow and frequently entailing heavy
loss to the experimenter but after time
the ''key note" as it were is struck and
what seems impossible is made possible.
Those who have tried celery on high pine
land find it failure except where abund-
antly irrigated and even then the results
are not as good as where the low land is
used. Again the old plan of bleaching by
banking was not satisfactory as it blighted
the leaves and gave them an ugly appear
ance. All of these points have had to be
learned by experience but those who have
persisted are now reaping the reward of
their labor. In our own garden we expert.
mented with 5000 plants after the plan
of New Celery Culture" and while it was
a total failure, the failure was due in a
measure to our own lack of experience.
Had we planted earlier and prepared our
ground deeper it would have given us some
very good celery which was proven by a
small portion of the patch. Yet the amount
of labor and constant watching entailed is
such that we much prefer to spread cur
celery out little by the trench plan and
not try to get too much off of small piece
of ground. Last week we received pack
age of very nice celery by all who sampled
it it was pronounced as good as any and
such goods put on the market ought to bring
not only good prices but fancy. The fol-
lowing letter accompanied the celery:
Editor Florida Agriculturist:
send to you by express sample of our
celery. You can prove best by the eating
quality that this celery we grow
in Florida is as good as can be produced in
any country.
1t was grown in the regular way, three
feet between the rows and six inches in the
row. It was blanched with boards twelve
inches wide and sixteen feet long.

PINEAPPLE CROP OF '96.

The West Palm Beach correspondent Of
the Citizen sends the following interesting
statement as to the present crop of pine
apples in that section. He says pineapple
growers are beginning to figure on the crop
this year. and are making preliminary ar
rangements for shipping. Much interest
is manifested in the condition of .the plan
tations. as this year will demonstrate pretty
clearly juse how much cold pineapple
can stand.
Edward P. Porcher of Courtenay, In
dian river. has been here this week looking
into ssthe status of the industry. Mr..
Porcher is general agent of the Indian river
and Lake Worth pineapple growers asso-
citation, and of the Indian river orange
growers association, two of the strongest
organizations in the state. the object of
which is the protection of the fruit grower
and the maintenance of medium between
the growers as individuals and bodies and
the commission men. The object of Mr..
Porcher's visit here was to find out how
many pines are to be shipped, and how
many crates may be needed. He was &C.
companied and assisted by James F. Nit

In statement made to a Citizen re-
porter Mr., Porcher says that the prospects
of good crop of pineapples this year are
beyond the fondest expectations of the
growers. Over 50 per cent of the 1894
crop will be shipped, at least 80, 200 crates,
from the pineapple districts of the east
coast of Florida, between Melbourne and

OF course the crop will not be large enough
to count in the general aggregate but it
will show that the trees are not all dead,
as was first claimed by the pessimist. The
orange shoots are making most satisfac
tory growth, and during the rainy season
of the next two or three months. these
shoots will simply astonish the natives, if
they are given the proper treatment. The
non resident grove owner when he returns
to Florida next winter will hardly recog-
nize the large vigorous trees as the small
but promising shoots he left in the spring.
All of this goes to prove that the orange
business has still a bright future. If
course these rem arks refer mostly to the
older trees. The heaviest loosers, perhaps,
by the freeze, we're the owners Of young
budded groves. While many of these may
come out and in the course of time repay
for the money and care expended on them,
a majority of this class of groves is very
badly injured indeed.
In addition to the few boxes of oranges
we will have next season to remind us of
the better time soon coming, there will be
a large harvest of general field crops-to
bacco cotton, cane. rice, potatoes. hay,
corn. etc. These crops, as rule. will not
be marketed but they will be almost as
good as the cash to the grower. inasmuch
as they will save the expenditure of money.
lust after the freeze, when the damage
to the trees could be estimated, it was con
coded that if the people of Florida could
manage to make expenses for few years.
until the orange crop came again, they
would pull through all right. 1t was
question in the minds of many, however
if this,could be done. The people had de-
voted their exclusive attention to oranges,
and they knew practically nothing of the
resources of their soils. Necessity in this
case as in many others. opened the way,
and the orange growers buckled down to
the work, and while not abandoning or
neglecting their orange trees have turned
their attention quite largely to the cultiva-
ton of other crops. The result promises

Editor Florida Agriculturist:
With your permission, would like to
say a word about curing Florida clover
or beggarweed hay.
Tt seems that many have trouble in
curing the hay so that the leaves will
not fall off, and chat was my trouble
too for time. But of late scarcely
leaf drops off the stems, kick it around
as you may.
am afraid DR.. Maxwell and others
let it get just little too ripe. My plan
is to cut as soon as it begins to blossom.
After leaving it lie on the ground till the
top of swath is pretty well wilted, but
not dry by any means, then turn it
over and dry the under side till all sur
plus moisture is gone. Then if am 60
ing to haul it in loose, I put it up in
cock and leave it to finish curing, which
generally takes till the afternoon of the
day following the cutting. But some
times I haul it in on the evening of the
same day.
But if wish to have it bound, then
as soon as both sides of swath are well
wilted, I bind in small bundles, then
put in shock at once to finish curing,
and here I think is the rub with many.
1t is left standing too long in the field,
and [ hardly know just how to tell you
when it is ready; some of this will have
to be learned. 1t must be rid of all dew
or surplus moisture, but not of all the
sap by any means. By taking stem
in the hand and twisting it good and
tight, if you have to give it several
twists before you can see any sap. then
haul it in and tramp it down good and
firm; don't be afraid if it gets a little
warm in fact it gets quite hot, but by so
doing don't have any mold or kind of
a dust used to be bothered with. The
tramping it good and solid remedies all
this, and your hay comes out as sweet
AID as green as it stood in the field; nc
sweeter or nicer looking hay to be found
and no better, not a leaf gone either, and
you may toss it around as much as you
please. The same rule that applies to
curing red clover hay in the north or
alfalfa in the west, will answer for beg
garweed in Florida. So trusting these
few lines may help Others to successfully
and satisfactorily cure beggarweed or
Florida clover. B. NJ. HAMPTON.
