Grape Culture in Florida.

There lis NO trouble i'm growing
grapes of many varieties lin this State,
and sldiIDful vimtnerts have often made
excellent wine and are doing lit today.
The wines of Florida are NOT so sweet
as Those Of California, have not $50
much body, neither are they SO heavy
and Intoxicating. They resemble rajdh-
en- The Rhine wines, wtlnle Those of Gall
ifornia are more like the Spanish and
Haitian wines.
The chief reason why wine +maklng
has never become "a large industry in
Florida lis because the people are alb
sO1tbed in orange culture. On OUT light
soils lit requires more FERTILIZER ito grow
grapes than ON the richer hands of Sew
eral of the Older States, where wine
mlayking is carried ON extensively.
Hence a uintner here would have TO

hold his own against THE more cheap.
ly produced wines of other sections of
the country.
The HISTORY of Messrs. Leahman &
Holstetter, South Lake Weir, shows
that wine4making as "a speciality can be
made Ito yield a handsome profit in
Florida. In 1881 Mr.. j. Laahtman. a
skilled wtine4maIker from Europe, set,

what he could not find anywhere, a

Pearl Buttons.

The manufacture of pearl buttons
has become a very extensive industry
on the Mississippi, giving employment
to hundreds of men, women ana chill
dren. Prior to 1890 a large portion of
the pearl buttons used in this country
were made in Germany, but the nigh
tariff ON this article imposed by the
tariff bill of 1890 set our own people
TO thinking, with the result that the
first factory was started at Muscatlne,
Iowa. in 1891. Since that time fac
tories have been built at rapid rate
and capital and labor have found
profitable employment.
Florida is the greatest shell-prOduc-
ing State in the Union as it contains
more sea coast and more marshy and
"overfowed" land than any other
State. Why can not we nave Dutton
factories as we'll as Iowa? cOllec'
tion of samples o. the various shells
that we have could be made and test
ed as to their adaptability for button
making. II the right kind of mussels
could not be found in the State 1t
would be an easy matter for our Fish
Commissioner to secure the proper
kinds and propagate them, and, as
their growth is comparatively rapid,
it would not be long before Florida
pearl buttons would be among our eX-
ports. We believe, however. that suit
able shells could be found that are al
ready Indigenous here. While the gen
eral demand is for pure white buttons
there are some shells of most beautl-
full tints that would make handsome
buttons. These shells are often priced
for their beautiful colors. so much so
that a good business is done by some
curio dealers in cleaning and polishing
them for the tourists.
It may be possible, if our people VIII
do a little thinking and work along
this line, that before many years pearl

peaches have grown as large las wal
NUTS. The curcuIiO are here Prepare
to- fight them. Fruit ripe and near
ripe stung and dropped showed, when
examined THAT THE larvae had left ais
soon as dropped, entering the ground
beneath the tree ito pupate, but not all
leave so early only when full grown.
This cam occur and tfrlrit remain ON
the tree afterwards, so that in de-

our peach growers the necessity of
POSTING themselves ON this subject,

groves being traced dinectly ITO failurN
to begin ON virgin soil. Remedies
tending ito lessen the ravageS of 'tht

called for. The best remedies are
clean culture and generous fertllizing
Where trees are young and only the

Der may ask me ON this subject a;
close of report, to THE best of my abil
ity. Il
Ut may be of interest ITO refer ITO tht
crop of 1897 which, as you are aware
was a short ONE. Spring drOuth, coup
led with heavy cropping of 1896 was
the principal cause of shortage. Only
the second early varieties bore a gOO(
crop. These were marketed, i'm my
a@e, from Tampa, Fla, to New York
City, and except i'm one instance
where packages were reported broker
open and robbed EN- route, arrived i1
good order. The average RETURN from
the crop was $1.51 per three peck car
r;er crate. The use of excelsior fol
packing for long distance shipments
was fully tested and found sa;tfsfac
tory. Reports from all my commits
sion men advised continuing tits use
The best sale of 1.-THE season was 3
crate shipment june 14th which sole
for 81 per crate.

For years past 'the peach growers
of Florida as we'll as Georgia have
suffered immensely from the ravageS
of some one of the large family OF

of 900 crates losing fully -th6rC
from lthis cause A crop of IT'S CRATES

from the same cause. I have seen
,,lees with several crates TO the tree
luntIer which THE stung and dropped
flruit actually began to pile up ont
upon another, as MANY as two on dhlret
CRATES of fruit lying under the tree
These remained upon the tree UP 1t
the time of fruit ripening, and drained
