Result of Election.

Election yesterday failed to create as
much enthusiasm as did the circus or
even the dog show, and we understand
that but ia votes were cast-thirty-
eight in two wards, and thirty-seven in
the other. There being no rival candi-
dates in the field was probably the
cause of the few votes cast, each voter
being assured that his men would get in
without his support.
And so the election resulted as fol-
lows:
Mayor, II. L. Kuck.
City treasurer, G. ]. Crandall.
Water commissioner at large, j. F.
Moore.

Funeral of Mrs. Haight.

The funeral services of Mrs. Phoebe
Haight took place this afternoon at 2 80
O'Clock from the Methodist church and
were largely attended by the number
less friends of the deceased.
The Epworth League choir sang three
selections, which were especial fayorites
of Mrs. Haight's, and were often sung
by her during the first months of her
illness.
Rev. j. H. Wood, her pastor, gave a
short history OF her life, particularly of
her devotion and loyalty to her re-
lieious belief. He then took as his text
these words: SIN my Fathers house
are many mansions. If it were not so 1
would have told you. 1 go to prepare
place for you. And if 1 go and prepare
place for you L will come again and
receive you unto myself; that where 1
am there We may be also" Speaking of
the mansions he said there were enough
for each, although millions had gone
before. Christ has prepared a place
and opened the way for all; indeed, He
is the way. His glory Will be the central

idea of life beyond. While we may sing
of meeting the friends beyond, yet when
we reach the home above, the beckon-
ing hands of Chriet will be sufficient
welcome. God has not left us among
the shadows, bnt his love has ''told us"
of the mansions prepared. And theee
mansions and the hope beyond was the
comfort of her whom now we mourn.
Although having none who were dear
TO her by the ties of nature to follow her
to her last resting place, her remains
were tenderly cared for by loving hands
and her chief mourners were the mem
bers of the Good Intent Society to whom
she was as sister, and who covered her
grave with the flowers which betokened
their love-. There were also many
beautiful floral tributes from other
friends.
The pail bearers were: Messrs. R. B.
Hood, J. II. Cross, VIM. Gates, G. F.
Stephens, S. Thurman and ]. Osborn.

Pears and Apples in Florida.

Pears and Apples in Florida. -,
The subjects which I propose brief
ly to discuss today are so familiar to
many of you that to discuss at length
would but weary your patience. J..
The pear and apple which 1 propose
to talk about, are the pear and apple
as seen and known i'm our own State.
1 shall separate them and speak of
one at a time.
The pear of today, as produced from
our own Florida soil, owes much to its
master, who found it in it's wild state,
utterly useless and tasteless. By care
full crossing and cultivation it is now
one of the most delicately favored and
highly priced fruits.
The most practical and profitable
way of propagating the pear is by
cutting and grating. Some varieties
grown upon their native roots; there
fore we will raise the LeConte from
cuttings which are taken in the Ordin-
airy pruning season, about December.
Limbs which are cut from the old
trees are cut in lengths of about
twelve inches, planted i'm furrow,
covering all except one or two buds.
With proper care these cuttings in IA
vorable seasons will take root and
make trees three co seven feet high in
one year. These trees are ready o
plant in orchards the following winter.
Plant thirty feet apart each way, cut
ting back the stalk to about thirty
inches high. 1t is astonishing to OBJ
serve the rapid growth of this newly
set tree during it's first year in the or
chard or field. Continue every winter
to prune heavily, cutting away two
thirds of the years growth, leaving
the last buds ON the outside of the
tree, thus making a very fine, SYM
metrical head.
AT five years old the LeConte pear
will commence to bear, and at seven
years yield heavy crops, which will
ripen from June 25th to August list, in
our West Florida orchards. The prop
er time to take them from the trees
for shipment is when the seed begins
to turn. You only need to cut open q
few and look at the seed, when yOJ
readily see that the outside skin has
changed.
The LeConte pear is good shipper
to any market which can be reached
in eight to ten days-they arrive il
fine market condition, and, with oul
present cold storage system, they ma.
be held off of the glutted market for {
considerable time at but little cost.
The Keiffer pear, which is wei
adapted to our soil and climate, sue

damage. AS soon as you discover your
trees blighting, stop fertilizing and
cultivating, trying to retard all
growth, do as little pruning as posi-
BILE, especially i'm summer. 1t is well
to prune away all blighted branches in
winter. My experience has been that
summer pruning is of but very little
value. 1 have followed up closely all
the summer and cut away all the
blighted branches, being careful to
burn them, leaving untouched trees Of
the same size and age in various parts
of my orchard, only pruning them in
winter, being careful to burn up all
blighted branches; and my conclusion
was that the winter pruning was the
most beneficial, and with it the tree
suffered least. l have tried various
remedies, and found none to succeed.
