Florida Oranges.-While there will
be only about 100000 boxes of oranges
shipped from Florida this year The
growers, so J. S. ARNOLD says, will re-
ceive half as much for the crop Us was
realized in 1S93-94, when the produc-
ton was 100000 boxes. This IN
crease is of course due to the cOmpar-
ative scarcity Of the Florida orange,
which has necessitated an enormous
rise in the price of the fruit. While
there are millions of California, ia
maica and Messina oranges on the
markets, the Florida fruit, on account
of it's superior qualities is not affected,
as epicureans prefer to pay the differ
ence when Florida oranges can be Sc.

awful hard to resist shipping to New

shipments too, for if we all go to New
York we will greak it, This we know

thereby to place our entire crop so as

night and day at Hastings, manufac-
turing their large cane crop into syrup.
They are putting the boiling e:"up,

This preserves for an indefinite time
the celebrated flavor peculiar to new
Florida syrup.
These gentlemen have been expert

could make. This year they expect to
find ready market in New York for

The First Strawberries -Several of
the growers at Galloway shipped a 80
quart crate of strawberries Tuesday.
This is the first shipment from this
section this year, and on account of
the early time of the year in which
this crop is ready for shipment, it
took several Of the growers to make
up the crate. The shipments III few
weeks will be larger, and the farmers
will have money to ''burn. Lake

EspinOsa CrOp.-The frost last week
injured that part of the espinosa crop
in Polk county, and marks the ap-
preaching end Of the picking season.
Espinosa will go on ripening and
growing indefinitely until a frost
comes, when, it being a sensitive plant,
it's career is cut short.
Manager Van Duzor will ship the
third full carload from Barlow next
week. While the threshing machines
have been at work at Barlow, the Zig
bins on his OsceoIa farms have been
filling up until he now has three hun
dred sacks ready for threshing up
here.
Considering that the cultivation of
espinosa may still be considered to be
in the experimental stage, the crop
has been a decided success and Mr.
Van Duzor intends to double the acre
age next year. when the cost will be
very much lighter Val

Orange Shipment.-This has been

the Kissimmee Valley orange and
grapefruit crop, the receipts by

up eight hundred boxes, and the Sec

girl was murdered in a secluded
