An orange tree that will grow and
bear fruit as far north as st. Louis
and Philadelphia is promised by the
omcials of the agricultural depart
ment. The destruction OF orange crops
and groves in recent years through
frosts in northern Florida directed the
attention of Secretary Wilson to q
search for some measure of relief for
the owners who have been suffering
financial loss. He has been superin-
tending the crossing of the Florida
orange and the Japanese trifoliata. a
hardy variety Of fruit. and now has
several thousand of the hybrid plants.
which will be set out during the pres
ent spring. The experts believe that
the new orange will survive frost and
a moderate amount of cold. and are
confident that the experiment will re-
suit in producing trees in which the
e1cellency OF the Florida orange will
be combined with the hardness of the
Japanese plant. II the experiment sue
ceeds the department will materially
assist in reviving the orange industry,
not only in Florida, but in other South
eru states, and will at the same time
assure the orange-eaters Of an unfail-
ing supply.

Compound Locomotives.

A dozen or more of the 45 consol-

recently ordered for use on the south
western division OF the Baltimore 4
