small white ones, exquisitely fragrant

small white ones, exquisitely fragrant
at night.
There are several flowers which,
speaking correctly, are not natives;
but they have taken such a fancy to
their foster mother, and have proved
so capable of taking care of themsel-
yes, that we quite regard them as wild
flowers. Among them is the Water
Hyacinth-an Eichhornia-which was
introduced a few years ago and has
since spread rapidly over the lakes
and rivers. 1t seems to be always in
bloom-always sending up spikes of
beautiful lilac flowers.
The subject of Florida flowers
seems so inexhaustible that 1 have
not attempted even to mention them
all, but the ones I have spoken of are
the most particularly characteristic of
this lovely Land of Flowers and Sun
shine. No one who has seen Florida
in all seasons can doubt that she fully
justifies, not her name alone, but all
the beautiful things that have been
said and written about her by her en-
thusiastic admirers since the time
when Ponce de Leon sought here-and
almost found-the Fountain of Eter-
nal Youth.-Mary Bidwell Smith, in
the 4-ayfov-er.

Carnations.

The carnatiOn is destined to be one
OF the most popular Of flowers. 1t is
growing in favor steadily, and it is
surprising to know OF the deep inter-
est taken in it by tioriculturists every
where. Many OF us can remember
when the carnation was a rare flower
in America, and it has yet to make it's
appearance in thousands of flower
gardens. 1t would hardly be true to
say that the carnation is extremely
easy of cultivation, and that any one
can grow it without previous expert
ence or information regarding it.
One should have some idea of green
house management to attain the best
results from the carnation. It is true
enough to say that any one can learn
how to grow the carnation, and that
knowledge of this sort can be easily
acquired. But it's habits are far from
being the habits of the geranium, and
one must know what it's requirements
oil z. Ills Is UIuc I'll tHN HOW
er. Such exquisite carnations have
been produced in recent years that
every lover of flowers feels his or her
heart thrill at sight of them, and
mentally resolves to have some like
them of his own, and this determina-
ton is possible of fulfillment if you
set about realizing it in the right
way.-How to Grow Flowers
1t was thought for long time that
earn tons would not do well here but
those who have had the patience to
try them under varying circumstan-
ces and conditions find that if they
are we'll fortified and are in a moder-
ately moist place, that they will give
a profusion of bloom. A good thing
is to have the ground well mulched
with leaves, pine straw or better still,
with tobacco stems. This treatment
will give an abundance of this delight
fully fragrant flower.

There are a great many people who
read paper week after week and alb
sorb what information it contains
that is of benefit to them, and never
give a thought as to whether they
might give in a short article OF infor-
nation which would be of help to 9th

ally to an expression like this, II do
not see why the paper has not given
somthing about so and so; have
looked in every paper but don't find

Now the editor would be only too
glad to know what it is that you want
to know, as there may be hundreds of
others that want to know the same
thing. If you will but let your wants
be known you can rest assured that
the editor will try to help you to the
knowledge you desire. If you have
had any particular success with plants
that are thought or said not to do
we'll here, let us know all about it.
A little careful thought now and then,
put on paper with pencil or pen, will

be blessing to you in the end if you
send it to us for publication. Please

Some Florida Wild Flowers.

Visitors to Florida-winter visitors,
1 mean-are sometimes disappointed
at not finding more flowers there.
"Why," they say, "this is the land of
flowers, and the woods and fields
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1897-07-07

Perhaps, forgetting the wintry as
pect of the frozen north, they expect
too much; for it seems to me that
Florida deserves it's name not only be-
cause of the number and variety of it's
flowers but also by reason of the fact
that every month brings it's blossoms.
The wild flowers are not so abundant
i'm midwinter- must take a
short nap sometime-but the flower
ing season begins so early and ends
SO late that one can scarcely tell the
autumn flowers from those of spring.
The graceful, sweet-perfumed Vel
low Jessamine Cor Jasmine) is one of
the early spring corners, and I have
often found few stray blooms in late
November. 1t is not a Jessamine at
cultivated yellow Jasminums from
China and Madeira. It's botanical
name, Gelsemium, is Latinized from
an italian name for Jessamine. 1t
twines luxuriantly over fences, bushes
and stumps, always seeking the sunny
spots, and making the sunshine seem
| more golden with it's lovely, fragrant
blossoms.
The Ox-eye Daisy, the Buttercul
and the Clover, all so familiar in the
northern fields, are not found in ours;
but the purple and white Violets, the
pink wild Rose, the flaming Butterfly
weed, the Dogwood, the Black-eyed
Susan and the Goldenrod are perfectly
at home with us. Perhaps I am par
tial; but nowhere else does the Gold
enrod seem so golden. A feathery
white flower-we call it wild Agera-
tum-comes when the goldenrod does
and the fields and roadsides are bill
| Lowry masses of white and gold.
If Florida ever chooses a state flow
er it should be the yellow Water Lily;
for it is, I believe, found only in Flor
ida. 1t is not the ugly, knob-like spe.
cies OF the same name though that is
also a native of our waters-but it is
true Nymphaea; differing from the
white Water Lilly in size and cclor
and being, if that were possible, lit
tie more graceful. 1t is clear lemon
yellow, with deep golden centers; and
the leaves are small, green with
brown spots, and with rose-pink lin.
ing. The large white Water Lily also
grows with us, and is much more
common than this rare yellow one.
There is dainty little cousin of the
Gala Lily that grows in damp places
"a little yellow Jack in pure white
pulpit. The charming Arethusa, with
it's bright rosy flowers, is it's compan-
ion, as is also the Spider Lily-so-
called not because it looks like hor.
rid spider, but because of the spider
web gauze between it's white petals
The Crinum Americanum is very SINH
lar, except that it lacks the spider-like
characteristic; and though this adds
to the appearance of the one, it's alb
sence does not, contradictory as it
may seem, detract from the beauty OF
the other.
The curious Pitcher Plants love the
swampy ground. Some have large,
deep purple flowers; those of others
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1897-07-07

y
The leaves form clammy pubescent
mat, from which the blossoms spring.
The lovely rose-colored Meadow
Beauties, on their long, slender stems
are so graceful that we forgive their
lack of perfume. The large, fragrant
clusters of the pink Azalea, or False
Honeysuckle, grow on bushes away
above our heads; and among the top
most branches of the trees we catch
the CLEAN of the brilliant orange and
scarlet Trumpet Creeper.
A queer little sensitive plant-a vine
rather-runs wild over the sandy soil.
Big aggressive looking bristles shield
the dainty little rose pink balls, that
are so sweet one longs to smell them
until there is no scent left.
Every man is familiar with, Or has
at least heard of, the great Powered
magnolia; but no description of Flor
ida flowers would be complete without
| "a mention of it's name. Magnolia
trees often attain a height of one hun
| dred feet, and when covered with the
snowwhite flowers they are truly a
feast for the eye. A smaller relative,
the Sweet Bay, looks proudly up to
this mighty cousin, and tries to look
as much like it's majesty as it can.
There are two pretty representa-
tives of the Pulse family-the big blue
Butterfly Pea, and a pretty white one
that turns to drop of blood before it
| fades.
Morning Glories are numerous; the
beautiful Moontiower, which loves to
grow on the banks of the clear rivers
and lakes, where it can see the refec-
tin of it's pretty white disk in the wa
| ter, is the handsomest member of the
| family.
| The sacred Passion Flower twines
itself among the weeds of our fields.
| We children used to pluck it's royal
purple blossoms with reverence. The
crown of thorns, the nails, the ham,
mer and the cords, were objects of
great interest to our lively magma
tions. The five sepals and the five
petals represent ten of the disciples
Peter, who denied, and Judas, the be-
trayer, being left out of the reckon
ing The fruit of the Passion Flower
| MAY pops,we call them-though why
do not know is delicious ans succu-
lent, about the size of hens egg,
and with the most delicious perfume
imaginable.
Among our most striking plants are
the Yuccas; and who would suspect
that they belong to the same family
that claims the dainty Lily of the Val
ley? One species, commonly known
as the Spanish Bayonet, likes best the
sandy soil of the sea coast. It's leaves
make splendid toy daggers. 1t re-
minds one of a huge fortress-and the
treasure it defends is the immense
heap of shining waxen flowers on it's
summit.
The bees love the palmetto blooms
best of all, and one does not wonder;
for although the large yellow spikes
are not, strictly speaking, beautiful,
they are very sweet scented, and drip
ping with honey

IMPORTED CALAMITY.

The Crawford, Nebraska Tribune gives the following version of Capt. M.Dorrington's idea of Populism. Capt. Darlington s a brother of J :. w Darlington, superintendent ot the Territorial prison:
 "He was one of the most dismal of the gloomy pops, and when he sprung the Bryan chestnut that the present prosperity in the United States was due to the famine in India,' Captain F. M. Darlington remarked: "'I would hate to be g pop, and forever refuse to let a nay of sunshine enter my heart. You fellows have howled calamity unti you have completely exhausted tht home supply; and now in order tt keep up your dreary vail you art forced to go clear to India ane i'm port 8 lot Of foreign calamity tt rally around" And the pop look ed forlorn."
