not tried the machine on the palmetto

be as hard to perform as the pulling of

the trees, burnt the stumps and closed
the holes for $75. Smaller contracts
have been taken since at $S to $40 per

sixty to seventy of the average pines

Two valuable medicinal plants are
indigenous to Florida, and grow in
areas throughout the marshy lands in
Orange county The first is known in
botany as pDiygonum hydropiper, or
smart W, ed Along the banks of the
EkonIockhatche river and adjacent
marshes it is found in grea' est protu ION.
Tons Of the material can be gathered ut
small cost AT the north polygonum
only grows in stable yards or cattle pens
where the ground is very rich. Here 1t
tlourishes without stint, as before re-
marked, and is as free AS air for anyone
who desires to gather 1t
Iris Virginica, or Flower de Luce
(blue fiae) is found in abundance in the
marshy lands in all portions Of Orange
county. 1t is esteemed as valuable
medicinal plant. Large quantities of the
root are obtained and shipped from
Holland annually. 1t is used in the
manufacture of perfumes and hair and
tooth pc wders, and oils are often scented
with it. A tincture of iris is sold under
the name of Essence of Violets. :"
Numbers OF medicinal plants abound
in Florida which could be utilized in the
manufacture of drugs more cheaply
than elsewhere, and at the same time
give unskilled labor remunerative en-
ployment in gathering the crude mate
rials.
Our polygonum patches alone would
make enough epispastic pasters to blis-
ter every man, woman and child in the
United States if the demand should
reach such gigantic proportions.
Dozens of pharmacies could be eStah-
lished in Florida which would net their
owners satisfactory profits.

For the Florida Agriculturist.
Now that the time is on us again for
sowing crimson clover, it IS advisable
for those who contemplate making
crop of 1t to prepare for it in time, so
as to insure a satisfactory return for
time spent, and money invested in ferti-
lizing.
Now that it has been demonstrated
beyond any doubt whatever, Of crimson
clover's adaptability to all sections of
the south as we'll as the middle, eastern
and western states, any farmer who
neglects to have a patch of it, however
small, is letting a good thing 90 past
him. Even as far north as Michigan it
passed through last winter very salts
factorily, and taking it altogether it is
today one of the most universally popu-
lar of all the clover family, and more
pArticu arly, 10y those who have tried it
most. It's value as fertilizer or re-
clAlmer of spent lands IS the chief sub
ject of thought among the northern
farmers, but with us in the south
while we recognize its great value as
renOvator we look to its haying qualities
and it's utility as green feed for winter
principally. Being native of southern
Europe and particularly of southern It.
ally, where it is grown in great abun-
dance 1t is not as new to this country as
some people believe, but it is only lately
that its great value has become univer-
sally recognized by the farmers of our
country. Farmers as a rule are a very
conservative class and are slow in taking
a hold of any new thing, and that ex-
plains the reason of crimson clover be.
ing compelled to hold back seat so
long. One great point In it's favor is its
equally we'll north and south and is far
more productive than the old red clover.
rIt is of beautiful dark green color in
Voltage and is set off to any landscape
where it is planted, remaining green all
through the winter, and in early April
blossoming to profusion with most
beautiful dark crimson flower.
find, that to get good stand OF 1t
here in the south we have to sow the
seed about the middle of Septem Der and
as we have generally very dry weather
at that time, and hot sun during the
day we have got to sow some other seed
along with it to help shade the ground
and protect the young clover plant in
it's first start, as it is very small and
tender and very apt to dry up. For this
purpose Il have not found anything
equal to the common cow pea. If it is
scattered thinly and narrowed In at the
same time as the clover 1t comes up
quickly and makes good shade and the
first frost puts it out Of the way of the
clover.
Now as to the best kind Of fertilizer
for this crop. We have got to know ex-

actly the condition of our soil. 1t the
soil is poor sandy one and deficient in
humus and decayed matter we have
got to be more liberal with our ferti-
lizers than If 1t was the other way.
Generally, in the fall of the year, when
we are preparing for this crop there is
always some vegetation on the land at
plowing time. To get the most out of
this we should broadcast kainit, not less
than four hundred pounds per acre, be-
fore beginning the plowing. This
should be scattered on in the early
morning before the dew Is off, and never
more scattered at one time than can be
plowed under the same day. This
sweetens the soil and helps to make the
crop better. After the land IS plowed.
more kainit should be added and about
two hundred pounds of acid phosphate
per acre. This should be well worked
into the soil by running five tooth cul-
tivator or spring tooth harrow the cross
way of the plowing, and in few days
sow the seed. The seed bed must be
dry to get the best results, if possible it
should be sOwed before rain.
would like to emphasize the necessity
Of using kainit freely on this crop, be-
cause kalnit is such a help to preserve
moisture in the soil during dry weather.
Last spring when we had such drouth
through the southern states, the soil
that had kainit in it showed it's effects
every time, in the healthier, greener,
looks of the crops growing thereon; in
fact, it was very effective object lesson
wherever one went. No doubt the salt
in the kalnit has good deal to do with
this, but the potash gets in it's best work
in soil that is kept moist in this way
and the crop shows it in every case. AS
| have already said, one has to be
guided good deal by the nature and
the condition Of the soil In fertilizing
for the crop as for every other crop,
but liberal use Of potash gives good
account of itself in the harvest field
every time.
Stock must not be turned on crimson
clover too soon, and never in wet or
rainy weather, but aftercit gets good
hold on the soil, stock grazing on it will
rather help it to stool better. By the
beginning of April it will begin blossom
ing in this latitude and if intended for
hay it should be cut before the blossoms
are fully out, for if left to get too ripe,
horses cannot digest the hay well. If
wanted for turning under green, plow it
just at the beginning Of the first bios
soming stage, and be sure and use kainit
on it and you will have as rich soil as
you want for almost any crop. One
word more. Crimson clover is one of
the farmers best friends. 1t is here to
stay. 1t dearly loves potash and parti-
cularly in the shape of kainit to do it's
best, and if we want good crop Of it
we must give it what 1t wants.

In your issue of August 5, Mr.. Van
Houten says: 81 have never grown the

hear from others who have fruited this
plant" l offer this as my contribution
to the information desired
OF IT'S ORIGIN.
The Pineapple Manual says: 'It was
raised from imported seed at Enville
Hall, the seat of the Earl of Stamford
This indicates its true name, "Enville"
or possibly "E1vile Hall" but ''Enville
City" never. In all the early literature
on the subject it is everywhere called
'Enville". "City" Is evidently Flor
ida suffix appended to it without au-
thority from either history ot traditions.
In 1885 obtained a plant of the late
G. Ell. Waring, of Montclair, in Sumte
county. In regard to 1t he writes: II
had plant fruit this year which | got
from Sanford. The apple was beauti-
full specimen and weighed six pounds.
The flavor was very fine. l have lost
track of the name but it answers the
description of the Enville in the Pine
apple Manual | will send you slip
of this variety which think will prove
very valuable" Later on l obtained
the Enville from another party and the
two were alike.
From this conclude that it was the
genuine Enville that | cultivated for 10
years In both size and quality it ranks
we'll with the Abbaka and Smooth Cay
enne.
1t is quite prolific in offsets, both slips
and suckers. The coxcombed crown is a
prominent feature of this variety. And
one who had the time, patience and
skill can add materially to his stock of
plants by dividing the crown and nurs-
ing the parts up to thrifty plants. In
the FLORIDA AGRICULTURIsT of March
25, 1891, Mr.. w. w. James gives a list of
fourteen varieties cultivated by Mr.. G. I.
Russell, of Orlando, in which Mr.. Rus
sell places the Envilless second in the list.
In his opinion the three best in the
order of their excellence were she Alb
baka, Enville and Smooth Cayenne.
The Cayenne having the third place be-
cause of it's scanty production of offsets.
In Mr.. Russell's list we have the name
Enville but Mr.. James calls it Envjlle

Notwithstanding the fact that Bryan
ana sewau are not popular with the
business men OF New York, the cause OF
/ silver appears 10 have plenty Of friends
among the democrats OF New York state.
Last Saturday night democratic prima-
ries were he'd in Watertown. and the
county In which Watertown IS situated
According 10 the reports in the Herald
and sun OF Sunday. "in every ward reso-
buttons were passed instructing the dele
gates 10 the assembly districts and coun-
ty conventions 10 vote only for known free
silver men" Resolutions were also adopt
ed condemning the actions OF those demo-
Gratis who had bolted the Chicago plat
form and nominees. The primaries in the
country districts were as strongly for
silver as those in the city.
The significance OF the course pursued
by the organized democrats OF Jefferson
county Is better understood when it is
known that WATERFOWL IS the home OF
ex-Gov. Roswell p. Flower. who is very
active in his opposition 10 the Bryan and
sewaH ticket. He IS one Of the recognized
leaders Of the New York democracy. The
democrats Of his own county have prac-
tically repudiated him.
What reason is there for thinking that
democrats in other counties Of New York
viii not follow the course Of those Of
Jefferson? AS far as We can see, there
is none. II the other counties, as a gem
eral rule, follow the example set by
jefferson, the state convention, which
meets at Saratoga on Sept 16. will not
only indorse the Chicago ticket. but
also the Chicago platform. In that event,
Bryan and sewall will get the greater
part Of the democratic vote of New York
state. Indeed, they may come very near
carrying the state. If. in fact. they do
not carry IT,
It looks as II the democratic masses Of
New York were thinking for themselves
in this campaign. 1t is quite certain that
they are not following their old-time
leaders
Mr.. Bryan has stated more than once
that he was not depending upon the DEM
| ocratic leaders TO carry the election. but
upon the plain" people. and it begins to
look as If the plain" people were not
going to disappoint him. If the plain
people stand by him he can afford to
snap his fingers at the leaders and the
newspapers.

Moses Depue o. Beiv-iere, y J., some
times goes fishing. Like some other FISH
ermen, he tells strange stories when he
comes back. The other day he went fish
ing for bass IN the Delaware river. When
he had been angling awhile. he says. his
attention was attracted by a white cloud
over toward the Jersey shore. Present
~ he heard strains o. sweet music from
the cloud In a moment the cloud took
on the shape OF a cross. which opened
and disclosed the form u beautiful wo-
man-the Virgin. The vision was so daz-
zing that Depue put his hand over his
eyes TO protect them. When he took his
hand down the vision had disappeared.
The fact that Depue is a deacon OF the
church disarms any suggestion that
might be made with regard to the daz-
cling vision having been a freak OF Jer-
sey lightning.

what They Are Depending Upon.


The fusion which the popIllsts have
made with the prohih.tionists in this
state is an admission that they do not
think they could elect their ticket II they
had 10 depend wholly upon their own
partys Stiu. they continually make the
claim that they carried the state two
years ago and were counted out. II they
think they have majority % the voters
why did they 90 outside Of their party for
a candidate for governor Their party is
NOT a prohibition party and yet it has
made an alliance with prohi5-tonists.
and is trying TO make prohibition the
great issue Of the campaign.
They must admit that they are not sim
cere in claiming that they carried the
state at the last state election. or that
they have lost "a great many OF their
voters since that time. They cannot con-
s.stenuy defend their course in coming
out for prohibition II they st-n claim that
a majority Of the voters OF the state are
popuists. II they believe the populists
are In the majority why do they wish the
aid OF the prohlbitionists?
BY taking prohibitionist for their can
didate for governor and putting a prohibit
ton plank in their platform. they virtu-
ally say they are not sincere in claiming
they carried the state two years ago, or
that they have lost a great many Of
their members within the last two years.
We are satisfied that they did not have
a majority of the voters two years ago,
and. also. that they have lost a great
many Of their members since the Chicago
convention. If we are right I'm this view,
viii they get enough help from the pro
hibiuonists TO elect their ticket? We
don't think they will. They Will get a
good many prohibition votes. but there
are thousands Of populists who are not
prohibitionists. These anti-prohibition
populists viii vote the democratic ticket
We are confident that as many anti-pro-
hibiuon populists will vote the demo
cratic ticket as there are democratic pro-
hibiuonists who will vote the popuIist
ticket. That being the case, what will
the populists gain by turning itself into a
prohibition party? WIN it gain anything?
II is doubtful If it will. The people don't
think much of a party that is ready TO
espouse any cause for the sake OF getting
into power and enjoying the spons Of
office The populist party has put itself
in the position Of existing for spoils A
party that deliberately takes that posi-
ton cannot i've long, either as a state or
a national organization.
