"Going into Decline" How often do
We hear this expression. What does it
mean? 1t means that people are losing
flesh, growing thin, wasting. The way Ia
correct this condition-is to improve the d.
restiun. The condition arises from al, in.
ability to cat and digest food. In fact food
does more harm than good because it kr-
m-nts and putrefi-s in the stomach, develop
ing. poisonious substances which when ab.
sorbri cause various disorders. What is re-
quired that the stomach be made to perform
it. duties. The Shaker Digestive Cordial is
a food already digtsted and digester of
food as well. 1t will make, the stomach

is built something on the order of
green house, but not tight, but is
covered with glass. The plants have
made a very nice growth but are not
old enough to compare results. Mr..
Livingston is also making an expert

mary scrub and we could not see but
that the pines were as content here
as in other places.
Mr.. G. w. Butler was our chaperone
and of course had his own pet to ex-
hibit. His grove is, without an ex-
ception, the most promising frozen
down budded grove we have seen. His
trees are healthy and making a good
growth and many of them are holding
from two to four boxes of oranges.
This is especially true of the tanger-
ines. Mr.. Butler informed us that
he received So, $40 and $12 per box for
his tangerines the past season. One
of the best fruited Seeding groves OH
the peninsula is that of Mr.. S. S.
Saurie. Up to the time of the freeze
this grove had never produced over
600 boxes of fruit, but this year it
has between 1900 and 1850 boxes.
This was brought about by fertilizing
for fruit in a systematic way. Mr..
Saurie seems to be very proud of the
results. Who would not be? Two
thousand boxes oranges-price $500
boxes.
We regret that our time was limited
so that we had to turn our face home
ward before we could visit other
sections that we have desired to see
since the freeze.

A Short Trip Out.

AS we ride around our own settle
ment, and see the groves as they are
being rebuilt, we get an idea that
about 95 per cent of the groves are
being brought back and that the pros
poets are very fattering. A trip away
however, puts another phase on the
percentage of groves being restored
Recently we took a rather hasty trip

A Change.

In order to appreciate fully the diff
ference in character and extent of the
products of south from what we had
to show ten or fifteen years ago, one
must look back to the days when a
family garden on the sand hills was a
rarity. 1t is not at all surprising that
with the increase of population the
yield Of products has increased, but it
is somewhat surprising to find that
the variety of products have so null
tiplied.
This is a most encouraging sign.
1t shows an evolution-born nc doubt
of ity-that portends naught
but good.
In the early days of the develop
ment of the orange industry of South
Florida, a good garden would have
been the making of many an orange
grove, as it would have helped the
would-be maker to make both ends
meet. But gardens were few and far
between, and it was the generally ac-
cepted opinion that it would be a
waste of time and money to attempt
the growing of vegetables on pine
land. AS for growing field crops, such
a thing was not deemed worthy of
consideration, it seemed so impossible.
Doubtless many things contributed
to these erroneous ideas. In the first
place the people did not care to grow
anything but oranges they reason
ed that if they had wanted to grow
field crops and vegetables they could
have remained in the north, or from
wherever they came. No they came to
Florida to grow oranges, and they
would grow oranges or nothing. Even
those who appreciated the necessity
of filling the hungry gap,' of grow
ing something to boil in the pot or
keep the pot boiling while the orange
trees were growing hardly know how
to proceed. Many of them tried, but
as Florida agriculture was an unex.
plored region, and differed in many
essential particulars from the agri-

ers reap profitable harvests at the same time
we would suggest that cigar factories to man
ufacture the tobacco, broom factories to make
the broom corn into the commercial article,
and starch factories to convert the cassava
roots into the finished product would add
largely to the profits of the producers.
