PLANTING CHINESE CANE.
The New Variety Gives Good Re-
suits Near Orlando.

Orlando. Fla, Jan. 15,-During the
past year a few farmers in this coun-
ty experimental with the growing of
Chinese sugar cane. The results were
exceedingly gratifying, and seed cane
of this variety is now in demand. 1t
is a much smaller cane than either of
the standard varieties is said to be
much harder. and richer in saccha-
rine. But it's chief claim to popular
favor lies in the fact that it is adapted
to high land and thrives best upon
land sufficiently elevated to be adapted
to orange trees.
1t is believed by those who have
given attention to the matter that
this variety of sugar cane will prove
valuable as forage plant for
cattle and horses. 1t bears an abund-
ance of blades, and if stock eat it and
thrive upon it, as is claimed, it is de-
serving of special attention for this
purpose.
Mr.. George f. Macy of this place,
who has a sugar mill, has worked some
of this cane. He finds that it yields
well and the syrup is of a high grade.
From present appearances it is believed
that this will add another to the list
of economic plants adapted to the con-

turn of prosperity.
Orlando is waking up to new life.
and is getting large sized hustle on.
Some good business properties have
recently changed hands and are now
owned by live business men, who have
made substantial improvements. A
large number of residence properties
have changed hands during the past
few months, and in all cases the pur-
chasers have put them in better con-
dition and made them more attractive.
Orange groves are changing hands, in
spite of low temperatures, and there is
a general feeling that an orange grove
is a good investment
Another evidence of improved condi-
tons is found in the fact that Orlando
