that can be offered, agreeing to pay SIS
per ton t. o. b. at any station on the
Plant System within one hundred miles
Of Orlando. In addition to this, antici-
pating that it will take time to induce
farmers to grow the root, they have re-
ceived a car load of seed from Jamaica
and have another shipment Of 500 bales
now on the way: This will be planted
on lands now owned by the company
and on lands which they propose to
lease.
The benefit to this community which
must result from this new industry is
almost incalculable. Thousands of dol
lars will be spent in permanent i'm
provements, other thousands have been
and will be invested in lands, and the
running of the factory will cause thou
sands of dollars to be paid out for the
products of the ground and for labor.
While running at it's full capacity and
using one hundred tons of cassava per
day, the factory will pay out five hun
dred dollars per day for that product
alone; and the benefits arising from the
disbursement of this large sum in this
community can hardly be estimated.
The fact that the promoters of this
new enterprise, whose names we are
not now at liberty to give, have gone
about their scheme so quietly and thor
ough1y, and have not asked for a penny
of bonus or for help in any way, argues
for the stability and practically of
those interested and insures as far as
human wisdom and industry can go, the
success of the usiness.-Or1ando SEN

THE above sounds very we'll, but
100 tons Of cassava per day, is a good
deal to handle. We hope, however,
that they will reach that much-Ed.]

Advice to Settlers.

Thousands of dollars have been
wasted in this country by settlers who
think they know better how to make
a living here than the average Florida
cracker. It is true, that, as a rule, the
crackers are not as we'll educated as
the people who live in more thickly
settled communities, but they have
much better developed brains than
most people think, and when they see
a cOnceited man put in to show them
a thing or two about how to make a
living in their own country and fail,
they say that he has more money than
brains, laugh and go on as before.
But they always sympathise with
good people who have been misled by
deceivers for the sake of gain.
I believe that after having livea here
twenty-siX years that I can offer some
suggestions that will aid honest effort
First, select some good land, not too
is good land fence and fertilize, by
cow penning if possible, only a small
patch, plant corn, sweet potatoes, SUI
gar cane and cow peas; before max
ing other improvements and if you
make a fair crop the first year, go
ahead, your land is alright. If not,
YOU had better move before spending
your money. When you have select

to follow the Irish potato crop, or the
watermelon crop, but it should never
follow either turnips or cabbage. Al
ter the land is well plowed from six
hundred to thousand pounds per acre
of high grade fertilizer should be
broadcasted and we'll worked into the
soil. This fertilizer should analyZe
high in potash and nitrogen, which
will make it somewhat expensive. But
when we remember that % tons per
acre is quite an ordinary crop OF Rape,
we can see the necessity of heavy fer
tilization.
Rape seed is very tender because
the hull that surrounds the seed is
thin, so that the fertilizing of the land
and a good rain should occur at any
rate between fertilizing and seeding.
', Zen ready for seeding, a fve-tooth
cultivatOr should be run evenly across
the land; this will leave very shallow
burrows. The seed should be evenly
scattered (about five pounds to the
acre is ample), and then the land har-
rOwed the crOsSWays of the cultivatOr
burrows, thus covering the seed not
too deep, but deep enough to make it
terminate well. If the weather is very
dry. the land should be we'll rolled so
as to insure a good stand. After the
plants get three or four inches high, a
top-dressing of nitrate of soda, say 200
pounds per acre, will improve the
crop wonderfully This applied before
a rain will answer best. When the
plants attain a Height of eight or ten
inches, stock can be turned on the
crop to Craze, but never for long at
first. The plants eaten off will send
out shoots and the longer it is graZed,
the thicker it gets. All stock should
have free access to all the salt they
want. When pasturing on Rape the
salt prevents bloating, which is some
what dangerous. One favorable thing
about a Rape crop is, that after it is
grazed completely, the remainder
plowed under is an excellent soil rem
OvatOr.
I hope I have said enough to get my
brother farmers interested in Rape
culture, and if they cannot plant a
large acreage, at least try a little
patch to satisfy themselves as to it's
utility. The seed is cheap, so that a
small trial won't cost much at first

An Important Industry.

An enterprise which will undoubted-
ly prove of the very. greatest benefit
to Orange county has been quietly
organized at Lake Crystal, in the
northern part of this county. The pro-
moters have said very little as to what
they propose doing; but the observant
have noticed for some weeks that some
thing Of Importance was developing.
The Sentinel is now able to lay before
it's readers a definite and reliable state
ment as to this new industry, which will
be of such great benefit to the farmers
of this section of the State.
For some months past, syndicate Of
Northern and English capitalists have
been investigating, very quietly the
prospects for the profitable running Of
a cassava factory in this county. Their
Investigations have been made thor
oughly and in such manner as not to
make public talk. The gentlemen
comprising the syndicate have become
convinced that large factory for the
manufacturing of starch and by-pro-
ducts from cassava can be operated sue
cessfully. They have gone ahead and
purchased large tracts of lands, secur-
ed several hundred acres Of growing
cassava, and have begun at Lake Crys-
tai the erection Of a large factory.
The capital for the enterprise has
been all paid in, and there has been
no solicitation of bonuses or subscrip@
ton to stock. The capital behind the
management is unlimited, and the work
will be pushed as rapidly as possible.
The factory will necessarily be large,
as it is expected that it will have a ca
pacity of one hundred tons of cassava
per day, when in full operation. The
buildings are being erected, two en-
gines-one of sixty and the other of
twenty horse power-have been ship
ped, and it is hoped that the factory
will be in full running order by De-
cember or January, although it is not
anticipated that. the company can pro-
cure enough cassava to tax the full ca
pacity until the latter part of next year;
but it is fully expected that by January
1901, the whole enterprise will be in
full blast.
The company through its local man
ager, Mr.. w. R. Healey, of Longwood
has already secured large amount Of

staff are: Surgeons Major James w.
Heney. Captain Alvin s. Hawkins and
Lieutenant R. S. Porter; Captain j. Van
Ness Philip, adjutant, and Lieutenant B.
Stark, commissary.
The Thirty-first started from Fort
Thomas Saturday morning. 1t is made
up of recruits from Ohio. Indiana, Ken
lucky and Tennessee, and among its men
it has number of members of families
from the interior of Kentucky who have
been actively engaged in feuds of more or
less long standing. There are some mem
bers of the Hattield-McCoy feudal fac
lions and some Bakers and some How
ards. The fighters have all agreed to quit
as long as they remain in the service
however, so there is no fear of any more
fighting than that caused by the Filipinos.
The first two battalions of the Thirty
fourth came in under command of Major
Skunk and Major Peck. In all there are
about 450 men.
Neither the Thirty-f1rst nor the Thirty
fourth regiments will remain long at the
Preside. The Thirty-first is booked to
sail on the transport Sherman as soon as
she can be got ready, and the Thirty
fourth will sail soon after 1t has been
the custom to keep the men for the Phil
ippines at the Preside for at least a
time for target practice; but there will
be no delay in the case of the regiments
here and coming here. In the case of the
Thirty-first the lack of practice will not
be felt so badly for the men of that com
mand have already had from a week to
ten days of practice before they started
for this coast.
The following regiments are on the way
here: The Twenty-seventh, from Camp
Meade, left there on August 90. The
Twenty-sixth, leaves Plattsburg on Sep
TENDER and the Thirtieth will leave
about the same date from Fort Sheridan.
The Thirty-second is to leave Fort Leav-
enworth about September 16.
The recruit camp at the Preside will be
cleaned out this morning With the sail
ing of the Warren with over hoo men the
last of the available rockies will have left
the post 1t is the first time since the
recruit camp was started that it has been
anywhere near empty, but lately the
transports have been carrying away more
than the recruiting offices have been send
ing, and so the number of men available
has been steadily growing smaller
Three months ago men were coming in
at an average of over 100 a day Then it
fell to eighty day, then to sixty, and
now there are days when none come at
all. The recruiting of regiments In the
East has had its effect, and many men
who would otherwise have come to the
