That Sims is the most resourceful
fellow you ever saw. His girl has 8
pretty cousin stopping with her, and he
told his particular that he had hired
an orchestra to serenade them Thurs
day night. As he had done nothing Of
the kind and forgot all about It, and as
she had made arrangements to treat
the serenaders, Sims caught It hot and
heavy when he next called. How do
you suppose the rascal squared him
self?s - - {.

Rae, arousing the latter's fighting

floor and Bobbie Burns throwing the
four legged altar, or stand, at him as
he attempted to rise.
Luckily he missed him aim, and the
stand struck violently against the wall,
shattering completely one Of the legs.

friends were brought before the order
for trial A fine was imposed on them.
and they were made to replace the al
tar. The broken one was thrown out,

The Use of Fertilizers.
The Manatee County Advocate O.

The Manatee County Advocate OF
December Sth, says:
There seems to be so much misun-
derstanding regarding the use of COM
mercial fertilizers, that one is surpris-
ed at the extent and loss resulting
from not knowing what is required by
a bearing tree, and how best to supply
that want
One grower we know has the right
idea-that bearing tree requires
fertilizer largely composed of potash
backed up with sulphate of ammonia
and phosphoric acid in proper proper
tons. He uses that kind, and in suffi-
cient quantity to- both make abundant
growth, heavy. frnitage and large
crops.
A demonstration of this fact we saw
lately at Oneco in the two groves be-
longing to Mr.. w. B. Thompson. These
groves are sixteen years old and con-
tain 600 trees, which are indeed beau
tiful and loaded with fruit. The foil
age is of a dark green color and the
trees have a vigorous and healthy ap-
pearance. They have been fertilized
for two years with the Simon Pure
No. - fertilizer-prepared by b. o..
Painter & Co., Jacksonville, Fla. Mr.
Thompson is very earnest in his
praise of this fertilizer. He says it
has given better results than any he
has used before. This from such a
well-known, practical horticulturist,
having so much experience with
groves Of his own as we'll as the sew
era groves he has cultivated for 9TH
ers in this county, is enough recon-
mendation to warrant us in enquiring
furtner for more information.
We find Mr.. Thompson uses two ap-
Dlications of this fertilizer on his
groves in year. The first being four
tons or 10 and one-eight pounds to the
tree about December LIST, and applies
the same amount about June LIST. This
makes the annual cost, with the ferti-
,zer at $3.50 per ton, at fifty-three
cents to a tree. The contrast which
these two groves present with others
where this fertilizer is not used is re-
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1899-01-11

marked by all who see them. The
difference is not only seen in the large
crops of bright oranges but the in
creased growth of bearing wood and
foliage that is shown in the Thomp-
son groves. One of Mr.. Thompson's
groves is the center third of a grove
that had been divided in settling an
estate.
Groves on both sides were fertiliZed
with othen brands, but the center
with "Slmon Pure No. 1."-Result--
the groves on sides scarcely any fruit,
while the center has a good crop and
trees in healthy, vigorous condition.
One thing that is all the more re-
markable about the crops on these
groves is thefact that this is considered
an loft year" and but little fruit any
where yet these trees are loaded with
nearly double their last years crops.
Other groves in the neighborhood
have small crops, little new growth
and are generally of a less healthy APP
pearance.
The Reasoner Bros, proprietors Of
the celebrated Royal Palm Nurseries
have used this Simon Pure Fertilizer
for the past four years, everything
there shows good results. In fact the
large experience. of Reasoner Bros, in
the cultivation of fruit and ornament
al trees, and their success with all
kind off plants which engage their at
tention makes the subject of proper
fertilizing one of vast Importance, and
they are so wei, sa tisfed with the ST.
mon Pure that they will continue it's
use from year to year.
We are informed that in Volusia
county, about DeLand, where Mr..
Painter lives and has large interests
that ninety-five per cent of the grow
ers use Simon Pure Fertilizer. This
i'm itself shows the appreciation which
the fruit growers of Volusa county
have for this celebrated brand, and
from what we saw at Oneco in Mr..
Thompsons grove and the Royal
Palm Nurseries, we would have no
hesitation in recommending it's use,
particularly, where growth Of trees
and heavy fruitage is desired.

Her guns were few and small, but she
had great crew, not in numbers, but
in courage and seamanship.
Once, while her captain lay sick in

to orders, tackled n great British ship,
with the result that the Polly was
captured, but her master soon retook
her. and ever since then (islD she has
sailed under the stars and stripes.
Most of the Polly's original timbers
are still in her frame, and considerable
of her original planking also remains
intact, She is engaged now in coastinc

Young Women.

In Wilbeforce university, Xenia, o.,
there are now ten bright South African
students. eight men and two women,
representing the Basuto, Mtembu,
Fengu. Nasa and Zulu tribes, says the
New York Tribune. They have been
in the institution for various periods,
from seven months to five years; the
oldest student. Miss Manyc, of the
Basuto tribe, whose picture accom-

in the school, and is now sophomore

rived.
In character they stand as well as
the best. Said an cx-president of the
university, now a bishop: NO one
ever hears of an African student lying
or cheating. They are all persons of
strong character, holding their places
among the students by means of their
worth and ability. Miss Manye is as
sistant superintendent of our Sunday
school. and an excellent one she is;
everybody honors and loves her" The
whole group of students have an ease
and dignity of bearing refreshing to
observe and during their whole stay
here their department has been excel
lent. Some of them are the sons of
heather fathers of considerable pos
sessions, especially in cattle and sheep.
Indeed, cattle are money in South AZ
rica.
All of these students expect TO return
to Africa when through with their
studies, most of them to teach. think
ing thus to be of the highest service to
their people. One young man hopes to
engage in legal and political life. The
countries TO which they will return are
now under English control, and are
fast taking on European civilization,
but the negro element is SO effecting
this civilization Ms to make IL neces-
sary that the newspapers be printed
one-half in kaiiir.
The male students take great interest
In the military drill carried on in the
university. This part of the college
work is under charge of Lieut., Young,
the only colored West Pointer in the
army, and is kept up To a high standard,
the young Africans being as bright as
any on the drill ground.
