The Outlook.
and Citizen.

The orange growers are almost the
only class who are discouraged, and
these only in the northern and central
sections of the peninsula. Here many
will give their trees no further atten
ton for a year, perhaps two or three
years, until the strongest shoots,
though neglected. grow up and begin
to thrust scattered oranges into their
owners faces again. A considerable
number will go farther south and plant
groves where there is no danger of
killing freezes. Yet there is a suIpris-
ing number who will stay right where
they are and reinState the frozen trees
or plant new groves. The foremost nur-
seryman of the State informs us that
the demand for orange nursery stock
is the greatest he ever had. greater
even than 1t was in 1895 The freeze
of 1895 weeded out the growers who
were most easily discouraged; those
who persisted are hardheaded. rpsolute
men, who never accept defeat at the
hands of the elements.
It ought to be burned indelibly upon
the understanding of every grower in |
Florida that the climate of this State
is not becoming permanently colder.
This will be amply demonstrated at
the approaching meeting of the Horti-
cultural Society.
Before these lines are ground over
the cylinders. the society will have
held its deliberations and adjourned.
We can only say now. therefore, that
the membership subscriptions are COM
ing in very much after the old fashion:
only a few dozens behind the record
of the corresponding season in the
States most prosperous years.
The strawberry men are having an
exceptionally good year, despite the
freeze. Against a yield reduced by $50
