Camphor Culture in Florida.

A retired English army officer has
for sometime been conducting expert
ments in canphOr culture in South
Florida, and the results, according to
the Jacksonville Times Union, are
quite gratifying. Several acres have
been planted in camphor trees Of diff
ferent sizes, and he is adding to the
number each year. The trees are
hardy and not injuriously affected by
heat or cold, excessive moisture or eX
IRENE drought They thrive without
artificial fertilization, and form heads
that are a joy to look at. The trunks
are short or almost entirely absent,
branches putting out close to the
ground. The tops are in the form of a
rounded cone, symmetrical and shape
ly Others in the vicinity are planting
to some extent, and it is probable that
camphOr trees will receive good deal
of attention during the next few ears.
The large trees bear an abundance of
Seed which terminate readily.

Stock and Range.

A few days ago according to State
exchange. a breeder in South Florida
sold about 1000 head of cattle for $1O,-
600. We believe experienced stock
men in that section of the State are
pretty we'll agreed that the capacity of
the ranges averages about Jne head
to forty acres. This herd of cattle,
therefore, represented the income from
10000 acres, or 25 cents per acre per
year. But this would be only one year
out of three or four, as it takes the
steer that length of time to mature
to a profitable size for butchering.
Therefore these ranges under cattle
are producing a revenue of less than
10 cents per acre per year, which is
getting down to turpentine level. The
only compromising feature in tho situa-
ton is that. this revenue is secured
practically without labor.
Another circumstance that gives
some comfort is that the Florida range
is doing as we'll as most of those in
the Far West, and better than some of
them. In 1880 the Government caus-
ed a livestock survey to be made of

The Morgan Cattle Deal.

Last Wednesdays Tampa Times con-
tanned the following:
''Alejandro Capote, sOn-in-law of
the Cuban Millionaire, Fernando de
Castro, who has bought e. 0. Nor
CAMS stock of cattle on the Kissim>
NEE range, arrived here by the Plant
line yesterday and this morning de-
posted $4,000 to bind the deal. The
transaction involves between $4,000
and %, 900 head and the price paid is
not far from $13 per head. 1t is I'M
doubtedly the largest deal in cattle
ever made in Florida, and it is doubt
full if another of equal magnitude was
ever made in the South.
The first shipment of 1000 head on
this purchase will be made on Monday
from Port Tampa on the ship High
lander, which is owned by Capts.
James and D. S. Mckay. The vessel
has been fitted up by the direction or
Capt. John A Mckay, who will have
charge of the shipping arrangements
at this end of the line. shipment
of 1000 head of sheep has also been
ordered from Georgia and will be
sent over on the Highlander it they
arrive here in time. The big vessel
will be constantly employed in the
trade until this immense stock is
moved.
Notwithstanding contrary reports
which have been printed, all of the
Morgan stock will be shipped from
Kissimmee by Plant System trains.
This will prove of material advantage
to Tampa, as much money will be put
in circulation here through the trans,
action.

quite nice sum through the Nor
gan cattle deal. Theodore Lesley was

best friend is the prediction Of the
SeminOles. The SeminOles declared
last year that their traditions showed
that occasional periods of severe cold
were not unknown in the past, and
that succession of such seasons was
always followed by long series of
mild winters. Seminole stock went
pretty low after the February freeze,
and the Indians were pretty thorough
ly cussed out by those who had relied
on their predictions. Still, there is a
belief that there is some thing in the
Seminole theory, and that the
time has arrived for succession of
favorable seasons for Florida.
Il have confidence in FlOrida's fu-
ture," said Mr.. King, land the abili-
ty of her people to win success i'll
spite of their present difficulties. The
pineapple and truck growers are doing
we'll, and there are other industries
which are prospecting. Florida has
great future as cattle-raising State,
There are magnificent ranges, and the
capacity of the soil to produce forage
crops peculiar to the country is I'M
limited The cassava root can be
grown in quantities in Florida, and is
a splendid food for cattle and hogs.
The velvet bean grows readily and is
a fine forage plant. The beggar weed
is perhaps the best forage plant OF all,
and can be grown with almost NO c'lti-
walton. Cut and cured it makes splen
did hay. One trouble with Florida
now is that her people buy too much
Western hay. They should go more
extensively into cattle-raising and
produce their own forage"
Mr.. Kings confidence in Florida as
an orange-producing State is still I'M
shaken. "There is no country on
earth which can produce oranges
equal to those of Florida" he said,
''and with the favor of few mild sea-
sons the Florida orange will soon re-
sumo it's place in the markets.

Florida's Orange Groves.

Mr.. III. HI. King, clerk of the United
States court at Savannah, who has
Just returned from Florida after
spending several weeks in the orange
growing section of the State, gives an
interesting account of the conditions
in the News.
He says: ''The majority of the Or
ange-growers are waiting now to see
what the coming winter will bring
forth. If the winter should be mild
the current belief that a succession of
mild winters is to be expected Will
gain ground and the owners of the
groves will go to work to recoup their
losses AS it is now only about 10 per
cent. of the groves are receiving the
attention necessary to put them III
growing condition. Many OF the own
ers. in fact, have not the means with
which to undertake the work.
The idea that the level of the water
in the lakes is a sure guide TO the
weather has taken a deep hold in
Florida said Mr.. King. "For several
years previous to the freeze OF 1898
the water in the lakes began to fall
and that year the water was seven to
eight feet lower than in former years.
The low water in the lakes continued
until last winter. Now the water i'll
the lakes has begun to rise again, and
with it the hopes of the orange-grow-
ers for succession of mild seasons.
Just how the height of the water in
the lakes affects the weather condl-
tions is not explained. The theory is
advanced that the mist on the water
acts as a protection to the trees. 1t was
noticed that groves on the south side
of the lakes did not suffer so seriously
AS others differently situated.

orange growers and others who "e-
lieye a mild climate to be Florlda's

Protection of Strawberry Plants.

| PrOtGCC1On Oh L A"AAIS'
For the next three months straw
berry growers will be busy setting
plants for the coming years crop, and
now is a good time to begin to think
of what kind of protection one is TO
use IT will not do to take chances,
and l expect that possibly the colo
weather will not be severe enough to
do serious damage. Last season those
growers who provided some sort OF
covering were we'll repaid for time ana
labor expended, and the same is true
almost every year. The severe freeze
of last February so greatly injured
some beds that they never fully re-
covered and this was particularly no.
ticeable where the plants were max
ing growth and were quite tender, as
late fall-set plants would be most like
ly to be. We have found that early
setting is much to be preferred, as
good, strong plant is thus secured be-
fore cold weather comes on, thus as
surfing better protection by it's own
foliage than is the case with late
plants.
AS to the best methods of protection,
and at the same time the most ccOnO>
mical, we hope this matter may be dis
cussed through your columns before
the season arrives, so that the begin
ners may have the benefits of the ex-
perience gained by those who have
had long practice in the business. Pine
straw is easily obtained, and can be
used to good advantage if the weather
does not get too severe. A N-shaped
trough made of two boards, onc-half
inch in thickness by eight or ten in
ches in width, is perhaps the handiest
and at the same time most reliable.
In case of severe freeze a light
furrow of earth could be THROWN
against each side, thus making the
protection thorough. This plan requires
some expense at the start, but would
perhaps, not be so vey expensive in
the long run, as the troughs would last
for years if properly cared for when
not in use. A thick paper cover large
enough to cover single plants made
cone-shaped and dipped into a liquid
which would make it waterproof
would be quite serviceable and should
be made very cheap, and, like the
troughs, if cared for would last for
many years. 1t is the early crop of
berries which brings the fancy price,
and any information which will help
the growers to secure this boon will
be hailed with pleasure-D y. Swart-
ley in Farmer and Fruit Grower.

Remedy For Weevils.


The following paper was read by
Fred w. Mally, state entomOlOgist al
Farmers Congress:
There are three principal in
sects which attack stored grain
These are the black weevil, the
red grain beetle and the An
gOumOis moth. The habits and trans
formations are in all cases much the
same. The eggs are laid within the
grain, both before and after gathering.
The eggs hatch, the worms feed and
mature on the inside of the grain,
and then eat out and escape as adults.
The time occupied in the traEafOrma-
ton from egg to adult again varies
from three weeks to six, owing to the
temperature which may prevail at any
specified time.
The best remedy against all Of them
is the use of bisulphide of carbon, or
high life,7 as it is popularity called.
1t will be economy in the end to build
close, as nearly alright as possible,
granaries with tight-fitting openings.
The amount of high lite will depend
somewhat upon the tightness OF the
bins, though the latest tests have
shown that quite satisfactory results
are obtained even with the ordinary
open bin. 1t has been customary to
use one ounce of the bisulphide to ev-
cry hundred pounds of the grain. More
recently tests have shown that IL the
bisulphide is simply poured over the
grain at the rate of one pound per hun
dred bushels, as the bins are being
filled, the insects will be destroyed and
the grain protected, even with the
usual open bin On this basis, the sui
phide costing about ten cents per
pound wholesale, the grain can be
preserved from injury at cost Of ten
cents per hundred bushels.
The last few years there has been
placed on the market another form of
the sulphide under the name of Puma
bisulphide." Tests have shown that
it is equally as effective, and the man
ufacturers claim that it is more effec-
Give. Either form can be obtained
through the wholesale druggists.
Empty granaries and mills should be
thoroughly treated with the bisulphide
before they are filed. High life is an
explosive when exposed to flames and
scratch matches or have lighted CT
CARS under penalty of an explosion.
