necessary, that if the lime contains
phosphoric acid to any extent it will

tanning as it does a large per cent. of

Split Oranges.

My attention is often, and naturally

grape-like clusters of the now full
grown fruit with here and there gap

short of a particular and definite

Observation shows that trees bear
ing full-every mature branch and
branchlet loaded-with no new leaves
or leaf stems to be seen, have not any
split fruit, not one. Also, trees hav-
ing water sprouts growing up from
their instep, and in some instances
springing from surface roots, have no
split fruit, not any. A more remark,
able instance is found in a bearing

Lime For Tobacco.

"Iooking at the question of the use
view. it is plain that a certain proper
ton of lime is necessary to the plant.
Lime is a substance that can no more
be spared than potash, or magpesia,
or than phosphoric or sulphuric acids
Some of it must be present in the soil
or no crop can grow. But, in so far
as the immediate requirements of
plants in this sense are concerned, a
few pounds of any lime compound to
the acre would satisfy them, and
there is already enough-and more
than enough-lime in almost every cul-
tivable SOIL
Exceptions do but prove rule. The
exception is found in the sandhills of
Florida and other coast lands. One
day a dozen years ago, while doing
some surveying in the piney woods,
using a pocket magnifier in setting
the compass on the variation, a few
grains of sand happened to be on the
dial glass. These grains of sand look
ed like broken glass. Then, picking
up a handful of sand and examining
it, the writer exclaimed, 81 have found
a handful of pulverized glass;" Fur
Their investigation convinced the writ
er that the Florida sand is pulver-
lied quartz, containing some potash
and phosphoric acid. Upon making
this suggestion to a chemist he took
some of the sand, washed it thorough
ly and analysed it for phOsphOric acid,
that being the line of his investiga-
ton, and he said that a number Of
analyses always disclosed phos-
phoric acid; no matter how pure the
sand appeared under the glass, it al
ways gave a reaction for phOsphOric
acid.
These discoveries and Investigations
led the writer to apply one hundred
barrels of the soft pulverulent lime,
which is so abundant in Florida, to
five acres of orange grove. That was
about four years before the freeze of
1895 and the orange trees, by the ad-
ded vigor of the foliage, showed their
appreciation of the application OF the

would say right here that anyone hay
ing grass lands for sale will miss it If
the land is sold at present prices as
see no good reason why our g;asS
should not be worth as much as the
grass lands of Illinois and Wisconsin.
Our climatic advantages should
more than compensate for any differ
ences in the quality of the soil. While
young cattle can find feed the year
round in our piney woods, and grown
cattle need but little, fOddering must
be done for seven months in the year
al the North. Then the wintry blasts
up there are not only hard on the poor
cattle. but are severe on those that
care for them.
| we'll remember the first of Janu-
airy 1862 when, in just going to the
barn to feed my stock, the cool breeze,
in spite of my muffiers, left it's foot
prints on my cheeks in the shape OF
two white spots, the size of half dol
y
went down to 80 degrees below five
times. When 1 look back at what |
had to endure in Illinois and Wiscon-
sin, | am happy to know that the
coming winter, so near at hand, will
find my family and my cattle in this
sunny cline of West Florida. Cut
o1o IN no i10 TO ofnr iS
no very pleasant thing to do when the
mercury is below zero, and ice water,
is not very beneficial to the cattle at
such time.
When 1 told in Illinois that after we
had harvested our corn or sweet pota-
toes we could cut a good crop Of hay
on the same land, the same season, it
was hard for them to believe it. The
crab grass hay that our cattle prefer
to timothy, needs no eulOgy from me,
but | fear that our Florida clover,
sometimes miscalled pursely, is not
appreciated as it should be, as 1 still
see many fields of it uncut, and yet if
cut and fed on our lands it would i'm
prove their fertility. I believe that a
pound of Florida clover hay is worth
pound of bran to feed to our COWS
giving milk and if I am correct, none
of it should be allowed to go to waste.
Our pastures are improving, as a
wide leaf grass is gradually taking the
place of wire grass, and the improve
ment would be more rapid if more
stock was kept to feed it down. Every
man here owning a homestead should
keep two or three times the stock he
now keeps, so that he would not only
have more cattle to turn off, but be
able to raise larger crops without buy
ing fertilizers. [ believe our pastures
can be improved by getting them into
Bermuda grass, though | am aware
that farmers are afraid it will spread
over their whole farms and that they
can never get rid of it. In reply I
would say that if l had Bermuda
would never want to get rid of so good
a thing. and have had two patches of
the grass in my yard and have kept
it within bounds for nine years with
but little trouble.

co, because of the application of the

ment: 81 have never underestimated
the necessity of lime in it's proper
form (carbonate). Indeed, [ venture
the suggestion that it's functional i'm
| pOrtance in the soil has not hitherto
been appreciated. But the rotten lime
stone found on the surface in some
sections of Florida is extremely dele
FERROUS to cigar leaf. In my opinion,
the attempt to grow the finer qualities
of tobacco on soils containing a con-
siderable amount of this rotten lime
stone (tertiary and quaternary) will
surely fail" 1t was known that i'll
Connecticut lime is applied to tobac-
CO lands in combination with other
fertilizers, and it was not evident why
it should not be applied in Florida.
But before planting the land to tobac-
co a sample was sent to an analytical
chemist. The analysis indicated a
some magnesia, only trace of phos-
phoric acid, a large per cent. of silica,
with the remainder carbonate of lime.
There could not be discovered any
thing deleterious to tobacco, and the
land was planted to tobacco, Havana
and Sumatra, and a ine-favored, ex-
cellent burning tobacco obtained.
Pursuing these Investigations fur
Their, it was discovered that DR.. Mes
sler, who made careful experiments
with tobacco, found that a large per
cent. of phOsphOric acid in the soil
made the ash Of tobacco dark; the
more phosphoric acid in the soil the
| more there was appropriated by the
tobacco plant; and the more phosphor-
ic acid in the plant the darker would
the ash be. From this it was conclud-
ed that our good friend, Professor
Moods conclusions were probably bas-
ed on experience with tobacco grown
| on lime soils containing a large per
cent. of phOsphoric acid, so that, with
all respect and Difference to Professor
Moody, the writer is an advocate of
the application of carbonate of lime,
the soft lines found in the pockets
! everywhere in Florida, provided they
do not contain much phosphoric acid.
What is carbonate of lime? The
| writer has heard educated men, pro-
fessors who should have known better,
contend that air-slaked lime was car
Donate of lime, whereas, it is only n.y.
drate of lime. Carbonate of lime is,
generally speaking, lime rock, either
common lime rock or marble, though
in Florida and many other places nu-
merous deposits of a friable lime,
| lacking the water of crystaliZatiOn,
are found. This is carbonate of lime,
and is good to apply to any soil. Lime
| that has been burned may take CEN
| turtles to return to- carbonate of lime
"Some mortars, three hundred years
old, examined in Dresden by Petz-
hOldt, yielded a strong lime water
| when digested in fresh water, and
must, therefore, have contained caus-
| tic lime'' There is no intention to
make this an article on the applica-
ton of lime to soils generally and the
