Great Results of Truck Growing.

In that famous vegetable section, COW
ering big scope of country along the
Florida Southern from Evinston to Or
ange Lake post Office, and embracing
Boardman, Mcintosh, Lochbie and
other places, the truck growers have
struck it rich this year and it could not
possibly have come in more opportune
moment, says the Baptist Witness. of
Ocala.
J. d. Miller, of Boardman, was in the
city yesterday, displaying $4,000 in
hard cash, the proceeds of little patch
of truck that he had just disposed of.
Mr.. Miller was completely wiped out
by the late freeze, but has risen superior
to his misfortunes.
Mr.. Baldwin, of Mcintosh, has refused
$4,000 cash for his crop, principally
cabbage.
1t is said that the vegetable crop in
the vicinity above named will aggregate
$780, 900 this year, and that the ship
ments of vegetables from Mcintosh alone
will amount to 1900 carloads.
Cabbages are worth $3.50 f. o. b. per

One Mans Experience.

For the purpose of further demon
straJing that "a living" can be made in
the citrus belt of Florida without the
aid of oranges we extract the following
from the Lakeland Sun. 1t is an ex-
tract from personal letter to the editor
of that paper recounting an Iowa mans
one year experience in Florida and Civ
ing a summary of his achievements.
In October, 1894, says the letter re-
ferred to, a man with wife and three
children from Iowa came to Leroy, Fla,
to locate, having bought there of agents
without seeing the land. When they
did see it they were disappointed. They
camped there that night and spent the
night in tears and prayers. At sunrise
they decided to try some other place and
so started South at venture, all their
possessions were on one horse wagon,
and only eighty dollars in money. They
came on slowly and about two weeks
after hired vacant place in Polk
county for ninety dollars rent per year.
There was cheap house and nVe-acre
orange grove just coming into bearing,
supposed to have enough oranges on the
trees to pay the rent. Fifteen acres
had been fenced and plowed but not
worked. That year he put out straw
berries, but it was so late and the crop
was small and frost in February hurt
them some; also put out cabbage and
they also froze out(a heretofore unknown

The Pollenation of Fruits.

The existence of sex in plants has
long been known and the manner in
which pollen is carried has been the sub
ject of years of patient study and obser-
walton. Some flowers are fertllized by
the winds, while in others the ovary is
set so deep that it cannot be reached in
that way hence nature has made the
flowers attractive to the bees and other
insects by bright colors and deep-seated
honey. In passing from one flower to
another they carry the pollen on their
wings and feet. Perhaps no man has
given this matter more thought, especi-
ally ross-fertilization, than Darwin,
who says: "No organic being fertilizers
itself for a perpetuity OF generations,
but cross with another individual is
occasionally perhaps at very long inter-
walls, indispensable"
The normal typical fruits, and in most
cases the largest and finest specimens,
either of self-fertlle or self-sterile sorts,
are crosses; particularly is this true of
the Bartlett and Beurre Clairgeou pears,
when crossed with the rich and vigorous
pollen of the Ball Butter pear. The
finest strawberries we have, such as the
Bubach, Haviland and others are as pis-
tilate blossoms and must be cross-fertil-
lied to bear fruit. When planted along
side of Wilson or Sharpless. which are
known to be rich in male blossoms, bear
most excellent and luscious fruit. |
have also observed that the Italian prune
when pollenated by the stronger French
prune, gives larger finer favored fruit
and the dropping which is very pro-
nounced at times, has been very light.
Italian prune trees standing in my
French prune orchard always bear full
crops while those planted in solid blocks
only partial crops, most of the fruit
dropping off, which, no doubt, is attri-
buted to imperfect, or weak pollenation,
hence, the conclusion to plant all species
of any given horticultural variety in al
ternate rows.

Any man of energy and health can

no doubt escape the losses this man had
from frosts last year. This man will
certainly get $500 from his hogs this year
and has fine garden prospects for next

have no land to sell but write this which
is true as 1t may be of use to some man
who is struggling at the West to learn
how to buy fuel and clothing for his
family with the proceeds Of thirteen
cent corn or thirty cent wheat. If he
will come to Polk county, Florida, and
do as this man did that question will be
settled to his satisfaction. And as to
climate and health the South is far very
far superior TO the North or West. Land
agents at theWest have nearly exhausted
the old, old story that northern people
are ill treated at the South. All good
people are welcomed and are we'll treated
by Southerners. Bad people who come
South soon disappear for some cause.
Southerners are generous people but can
not easily forget insults but all good
people are we'll treated.

prospects are that prices on all crops
will keep up,
Mr.. Flewellen, of Gainesville, has
made up to date, S., 900 on lettuce alone,
and expects to make as much more.
A New England gardener came to
Gainesville some time ago and invested
good deal of money in Florida sand, fer
tilted well, and made this year, SO it is
said, 10000.
The vegetable season is early yet, and
not many shipments have been made.
This is only a small section of the State,
many other portions of which will yield
nearly as we'll. After the vegetable crop
of Florida is marketed this year money
is going to be comparatively plentiful
and many of the people will be prosper
Gus.
AS natural consequence the people
who lost their groves are putting every-
thing into vegetables and are reaping
grand harvests.
And in the meantime the orange trees
are coming on apace.

turn of 80 pounds per acre. These out
turns may be looked upon as failures,
and conclusively prove that teff is of no
great account for cultivation on the
plains as food grain. A cutting was
made across a section of the two plots OF
this July sowing in the middle OF Au'
gust, and weighed collectively in its
green state, and as result gave an out
turn of 10000 pounds of green fodder
per acre. The out-turns of 3,116 and
2.676 pounds, noted in the statement for
part of this plot really mean the out-turn
of dried hay, as the fodder was weighed
in the beginning of October, and was
then crisp and dry. A rainy season SOW
ing of teff may. therefore, be looked
upon as capable of producing 10000
pounds of green fodder and from 2, 900 to
5000 pounds of dried hay per acre.
"a sowing of half of pound of each
kind was made at Arnigadh in the be-
ginning of the rains, and resulted In
collectived out-turn of 40 pounds of
grain. This was a rem arkatly good
yield for the small quantity of seed
sown, and proves that in hill tracts teff
may yet prove prolific food-grain.
"The hay made from teff was OF ex-
ceptional good quality and was greedily
eaten by the garden bullocks. When it
was offered to them they were being fed
on jowar or sorghum stalks, and, as is
well known, these are remarkably sweet,
and cattle, when fed upon them, gener-
ally refuse other kinds of dry food until
they find that sorghum is not forthcom-
ing. Our garden cattle, however, seemed
to prefer the teff hay to the sorghum,
as they would not touch the latter until
they had devoured the whole of the teff
placed before them.
''The experience gained here in the
cultivation of teff during the past year
may therefore be summed up as follows:
"When sown in the dry season it will
yield light crop of grain, and when
sown in the rains it yields little or no
grain, but produces an abundance of
green fodder which may be cured into
very palata BILE hay where the latter is
preferred. In my opinion, teff is des-
tined to become the rye grass of India,
and is we'll worthy of more extended
trial on some of the government fodder
reserves"

Crete up to the present time occurred

mountains organized strong expedi-
ton against the villages in the Herak.

Turks left Heraklion to protect their

followed, the Turks were defeated,

were smaller. The Cretans captured
an enormous booty, hundreds Of rifles
and thousands Of sheep and cattle fall

San Francisco, Aug. 28.--The peri

Monday morning and before the day

murders, while q surly convict took it
upon himself to throw the jute-mill

The most serious affair was a muir
derous attack by Chinese hihgbinder
on a fellow-countryman. The two
were removed from Folsom to San
Quentin about four months ago, and
as they had learned the art of weaving
under Warden Hull, they were put to
work in the jute mill. There was bad
blood between the men ever since their
change Of quarters Monday morning
one of the men was assigned TO the
washhouse. During the absence Of the
guard the second Mongolian crept be-

drive long knife through his neck.
The point of the weapon struck the
base of the skull and ranged downward
into the muscles of the shoulder. Il
was wicked blow and its force was SO
great that about four inches of the
blade were afterward removed from the

Paris, Aug. 27.---Last Wednesday,

numerous foreign engineers and large
crowd of onlookers, was launched one
of the queerest specimens Of marine ar.
chitecture that the world has ever seen.
Il is called rolling steamboat and
the designer, NJ. Bazin, well-known
French marine engineer, expects Il TO
show speed of 90 miles per hour.
The idea was so new and original that

with ships now in existence), but will
roll ON the water by means Of hugo
hollow wheels or rollers. The vessel
consists of large platform, holding
the boilers, machinery. saloons, cabins,
etc.. which is supported ON each side
by movable hollow wheels. The power
is used partly TO propel the whole by
means Of screws or paddle.wheels. but
principally to propel the rollers. Mr.,
Bazin claims to get rid Of water frio.
tion and resistance and with a mini.
mum Of expense and power to attain
fifty-knot rapldity. The result which
he has obtained with q model about
four feet long on the lake at Vinoennes
has encouraged him TO undertake. ex.

$50 tons displacement, TO be driven by
$50 horsepower, which will be utilized
by screw and three pairs Of side roll
ers, each about thirty-three feet in di.
