The Mango.

The mango (mangifera indica) iS one of
the finest tropical fruits cultivated in the
world, says FL. +. NanDeman in South
Florida Progress. 1t has been introduced
into many places in Florida, and trees
have been fruiting for number of years.
The freeze of January, 1856, killed many
of them TO the ground, but | saw several
bearing trees along the shores of Lake
Worth, and one on Merrtt's Island. One
tree, about ten feet in height, in Mr.
Bresfords grounds, at Palm Beach, pro-
duced this year l, ,l06 ripened fruits 10y
actual count, besides the number that
were taken without the knowle, ge of the
owner.
The mango, being an evergreen tree,
produces pleasing effect either as a fruit
or ornamental tree, the leaves being from
six inches to foot long, resembling those
of the chestnut in shape, and appearing
quite glossy and brilliant in color. The
growing shoots have wine-colored tint,
which adds TO the beauty of the tree. Ii
grows TO a large size, and the wood is
valued for mechanical purposes in the
East Indies. All the varieties now fruit
ing In Florida are common Seeding, and
the fruit is much inferior To the choicer
kinds, which are only prOpagated by
grating. A number of the best kinds
have been recently introduced, and it Is
expected that within the next few years
our northern markets will receive the
fruit. The fruit averages in weight from
eight TO ten ounces, and is kidney shaped,
with a large fiat seed III the center, to
which is attached sort of fiber, especi-
ally in the common or poorer kinds, but
the choice varieties are entirely free from
this characteristic. The flesh Is yellow
and exceedingly sweet and aromatic in
flavor. The fruit will always be rare and
high-priced in our northern markets, but
there is no reason why We may not pro-
duce large share of the amount con-
sumed 10y our people instead of importing
it from the West Indies, as is now the
case, while people living in tropical Flor
ida may enjoy the fruit very generally. 1t
is of nature so deiicate that it suffers
decay during long voyage by ships, but
by rapid transportation by rail from
South Florida will, in a great measure,
overcome this difficulty. The tree seems
quite in the list of plants of great COM
mercial importance credited to America,
and produces fruit abundantly, even in
poor soil, with reasonable culture.

Florida Climate Not Changing.

The editor of Peninsula Breeze cOmbats
the theory that the climate of Florida is
changing, and gives some interesting his
toric data in support of his position. He
says:
"Those who contend that the climate is
changing have conjured up many argu-
ments to account for it. The staple one
has been the destruction of the forests;
another, the drainage of lakes and
rivers, etc.
"As the lnmbermen of this state and
the territory adjoining seldom are lucky
enough to find more than three or four
milling sticks per acre, the cutting of
these, taking into consideration their
smallness of diameter and the lack of
foliage and branches, can have but little
influence in reducing the windbreak. The
same is true of the drainage argument.
The great lakes, rivers and swamps of
the state cover so nearly their original
area that what of their margins and the
smaller lakes and swamps have been
drained can make no measurable climatic
differences.
'sWe can show by records reaching back
over 200 years, viz, to 1892, that in that
year In November it was cold enough to
freeze to death three of the crew of an
English brigantine wrecked near Indian
river inlet, while they were trying to
reach st. Augustine, and the night the
survivors reached the Spanish guard
house at Matanzas inlet it hailed, showed
and the ground froze hard. The next
century, in 174l-2, this was almost paral-
leled in the destruction of the little home
groves of orange trees at st. Augustine to
the reduction OF the meager incomes of its
inhabitants, who sold the fruit to the
coasters that entered their port. The
freeze of 1885 was of equal severity. A
relative of the editor, III command of a
company of rifemen encamped in the
Okeechohee region, wrote an account for
the paper we were then publishing, which
contained the statement that more men
in that campaign lost their lives through
the extreme cold, for which they We're
not prepared in equipage or clothing,
than by the Seminoles."

lean Society for the Preservation of Game,
and in this connection he has said for
publication: 81 appreciate the fact that
during the past few years the legislature
has taken steps which are in favor of the
preservation of game in this state, but
still believe that there is some room for
improvement on this line of legislation.
When the next session of the legislature
convenes | will be there, in an effort to
have a state law enacted which great
many Of those interested in such matters,
as well as myself, believe will go great
way in stopping the lavish destruction of
game which is at present going on in the
state.
"This is one of the best game states in
the union and the fact that it
has that reputation in all parts of the
United States and Europe has resulted in
the bringing TO Florida of a great many
people on pleasure bent, as well as afford
ing the people of this state amusement at
the proper season of the year.
81 believe that law should be created
appointing state game warden who will
look carefully after this matter and give
it his close attention. If such an official
were clothed with the proper authority
he would be in a position to do great
deal in the way of preserving the game of
this state"
Mr. ClarksOn is one of the hardest
workers on political lines in this state,
and there is no doubt that whatever he
endeavOrs to do in this connection will
result in great deal of good. There are
no people in the state who do not appre-
ciate the fact that the game of Florida
needs protection, and that protection
should he as rigid as the circumstances
warrant.

The ways and means committee
of the house will begin this week
the consideration of the bill to re-
duce the war revenue tax. 1t has
been decided that there shall be
hearings from the interests affected
and the first hearing will be on the
beer tax. The rate of taxation on
beer now is SLIGO per barrel. The
brewers hope to secure reduction
of 60 cents, thus placing the tax
back where it was before the Span
ish-American war. The reduction
of revenues on this one item alone
should be about s24, 100000.

Cost of the Philippines.

The Literary Digest publishes
striking diagram illustrating the
cost of the war in the Philippines,
in men and money, to the United
States; the cost to the FilIpinos in
men, and the value of the trade of
the archipelago. The data, taken
from official reports, covers the per-
iod between May, 1900, and June
Both, 1901. 1t is shown that dur
ing that time 245 American sol
diers were killed. The Filipino
killed amounted to 1854, making
the ratio about 1 to 16 The Amer
lean wounded amounted to 490,
and the Filipino wounded to 1,193,
The great disparity between Fill
pino killed and wounded has led
to some severe charges of cruelty
against the American troops by an
"anti-imperialist" league in New
York, as well as by certain mem
bers of congress. Ordinarily, it is
claimed, the number of wounded
should be far greater than the num-
Der of killed. However that may
be, there has certainly been sick
ening lot of blood letting in the is
lands, not to mention the suffering
caused by disease and hardship on
both sides.
As to the financial side of the
question, the cost in money to the
United States during the period
named was, in round figures, $780,
100000. The total imports into
the islands amounted to S30,279,-
4O6, and the total exports to $685.
2l4,94S. These figures include the
whole foreign commerce of the is
lands, of every sort whatsoever. OF
this total of trade the United States
sent into the island for commercial
purposes articles to the value of
1886, ,6S5, and received from the
Philippines articles of the value of
S2,572,021. 1t is estimated that the
profits on the imports and exports
of the islands, calculated at 20 per
cent. amounted to 81 ,OS5, ,541. This
showing is, indeed, .pitifully small
when the cost of it is considered.
The Literary DigeSt's article says:
"The total foreign trade of the
islands would not pay 60 per cent.
of the cost of the war, the total val
lie of the trade of the United States
would not pay 6 per cent, and the
profits on our trade with the ISL
ands would pay little more than i
per cent"
1t is, indeed, questionable if ever
the trade with the Philippines will
be sufficient to pay the interest on
the cost of those islands to us in
money and blood Such statesmen
as Senator HOar, of Massachusetts,,
and Hale, of Maine, do not think
so. Then, again, note what Gener-
al Funston says. He comes back
here with gloomy reports of prog
ress in the Philippines. He says,
"the natives will not be brought
under the control of civil govern
ment in this generation" and he
further estimates that at least 40,-
00O men will be needed there for
the next three or four years to
come, and after that "ten thousand
men will be sufficient, if there are
no signs of trouble" :"
Senator Hoar's recent motion
that committee be appointed by
the senate to investigate the war
and report was most timely, and
the committee has been appointed
and will proceed to their work.
Now, let the American press con-
tinue the agitation already started
and keep it right before the eyes of
the American people until the
matter has been thoroughly sifted
to the bottom.

gray would pine amid such barren
ness. Hence the species is often
known as the wood gray in recog-
milton of these tastes and habits.
The further careers of our young
grays, however, illustrates the truth
that fear, after all, may be a whole
some thing. 1t is better to lose fat
than life. Even foXcraft cannot
match that of man. Man sets his
wits to work; the red fox loses fat,
but many gray his pelt. Gray can
run fast enough to get to his hole
when the dog barks, but not when
the trap snaps. If he had little
more of the grace of reverence in his
makeup, it would be better for him. So.
for every red that is caught, the
trapper gets dozen grays, in this
locality.

AN APPRECIATIvE LANDLORD.
After His Tenant Had Improved the
Place, He Kindly Raised
the Rent.

Last fall the occupant of a rented
cottage on upper Western avenue wish
ing to add to the comfort of his home
and at the same time improve the APP

idea-a rather unusual one for a ten
ant-of digging a cellar and putting
a brick foundation under the house,
says the Milwaukee Sentinel. All win
ter he devoted his spare moments
in the morning, in the evening and on
Snndays-to the work OF excavation.
and when the job was completed he
proceeded to erect the foundation.
The next time the landlord called to
collect the rent he was much surprised
at the change in the appearance of the
place.
"This is quite an Improvement" said
he to his tenant
Eyes, it is" replied the latter. well,

fact | suppose / will have to raise the
rent. You may have the house at the
old price until the 1st of May, but after
that must ask you to pay me 81 more"
This was more than the tenant had
looked for. and the landlords remarks
took him completely by surprise As
he likes the place and does not care to
move, he is now wondering whether
he can compel the landlord to pay him
for the labor and time spent in improv-
ing the place.
