Trucking III West Orange.


We extract the following from the
columns OF the Orlando Reporter:
In these times Of financial depression
it is particularly gratifying to record the
success attending the efforts of sturdy
farmers, the horny-handed sons Of toll,
in any sections of the state, but doubly
so in old Orange county.
Comparatively satisfactory results
have followed the judicial efforts of
truckers in many sections Of the county
this year, but this article has reference
to only one portion of the county, that
of west Orange, in the vicinity of Ocoee
and Oakland on South Apopka lake.
There is N those sections clay sub
soil, which retains moisture far better
than where other formations exist, and
consequently the unusually dry spring
was not followed by the disastrous re-
suit which befell that branch of agri-
culture In some portions of the county.
Some figures will give an idea of the
results accomplished by the truckers in
the neighborhood of Oakland.
For example, Mr.. L. f. Tilden, with
one mule and two colored laborers. har-
vested and sold 2,700 crates Of tomatoes
at an average of nearly $500 per crate,
while his son, Mr.. Chas. Ti]den, sold
700 crates at about the same prices.
Besides this they had, earlier in the
spring, sold big crop Of cabbage at re-
numerative prices.
Mr.. VIM. Tilden, son of the first
named gentleman, made $4,000 on his
bean crop before his tomatoes were
ready to ship.
The elder Mr.. Tilden is said to be
about $40, 900 in pocket on this years
trucking operations.
Mr.. J. L. billiard cultivated fifteen
acres in tomatoes and two in cabbage.
He did the work himself until harvest
time, when, of course, he had more or
less help. The crop netted him $4,000
and he has enough left to pay the ex
pense of cultivation and harvesting.
One trucker, who owed about 81 900
he had borrowed, made enough to dis
charge the obligation leaving about the
same amount over all expenses.
These are not isolated Instances, but
are pretty fair averag e of results among
the truckers over there. These results
do not attend the truck growers efforts
annually, for some years they just about
made current expenses. But take it
through series of years and it will be
seen that they can afford to have two
off years out of three and then save
money, as the two years will enable
them to meet expenses and the third
they are enabled to salt down COM
Portable sum.
These people who were almost para
lyzed by the freeze of '94.5, which froze
their orange crop and set their trees
back, are rapidly recuperating from that
disaster.

Mr.. Frank B. Peterson has applied for
a patent on device for heating water in
the stovepipe. He has it in use in his

The storm this week was the heaviest
| in years, about three inches of water
| falling. All the streams were greatly
swollen, and considerable damage was
done along the coast.
If this rain hasn't reached the wells
they must be pretty dry. 1t was one of
the wettest rains for a loug time. It was
fortunate the GROUND was not frozen, SO
that the water could soak in the ground
and swell the springs.

council was held on Monday evening.
The business transacted was principa lily

Thursday was probab bly, the heaviest that
we have had in this section since last
