The Orange Market.

Discouraging reports from the
New York markets have caused To-
cal orange growers to hold up ship
ments during the past week and
most of the consignments which
have gone forward during that time
have been to other points and on
special orders for the holiday trade.
There are several lessons for grow
ers in the following letter sent out
by well-known New York house
last week:
1--WE regret we cannot report an
improvement in our orange market.
Receipts continue excessive and a
great deal of the fruit is arriving in
unsound condition. Under the eX-
listing circumstances we cannot en-
courage shipments to this market.
california oranges are being
handled largely in preference to
Floridas, as the former is of unusual
ly good quality for this time of the
year; they are sound, well graded
and packed, and put up in an attrac-
tive manner
FLORIDA oranges are selling at $l75
to $2.25 per box. Tangerines, Sl.75 to
800 per strap"
As a rule Crescent City orange
growers put their. fruitup in attrac-
tive packages, and do not ship UNI
ripe fruit But the great bulk of the
fruit now in the New York market
comes from the new orange sections
of South Florida, where the growers
have yet to learn the Importance of
shipping only the best fruit and that
only after it is ripe.
There will be lull in local ship
ments until the middle of January,
by which time it is hoped the mar
ket will improve.

TEACHING. THE HORSE.
Will Learn Anything His Muscles
Can Perform,


Expert horsemen believe that a horse
can be taught to do anything that it is
possible for an animal so formed and
to be utterly fearless Thus we know
of horses rushing into battle with a
fearbssness that is magnificent, al
though in the beginning Of their lives
they may have been foolishly timid,
shying at everything unusual that hap
pened to be seen in their travels.
In order to teach horse fearlessness
he must be accustomed to all sorts of
sights and sounds. He must come to
know that because something that he
sees or hears is unusual it does not fol-
low that it is harmful, for it is the I'M
usual things that brighten him. The
horse is an animal of one idea at a
time and is not able to discriminate, so
say the men who have made a study Of
the horse. While he will travel along
quietly close by the roar of train, he
may tremble at the flutter Of piece of
loose paper flying in the wind 1t is
not the frightfulness of the object that
seems to alarm him, but the unfamil-
iarity Of it. Horse trainers say that
the mistakes made In breaking" and
training colt is that it is too often
done in the seclusion of some country
road instead of amid the sights and
sounds that the animal must necessari-
ly become familiar with later
AS soon as the horse becomes famil-
lar with anything and has learned to
believe that it will not hurt him he
will stand quietly or trot along peace
fully, even though all sorts of noises
and queer sights are about him. Thus
the artillery horse will stand amid the
roar of cannons, being used to the
noise and not knowing that the sound
predicts anguish and death. 1t is we'll
to accustom horse to unusual sounds
as soon as possible after he is trained
for riding or driving. 1t renders him
safe and docile, even though he be a
spirited animal. A certain trainer of
horses said that an ideal school for
horses would contain thrashing ma
chimes, pile drivers, steam drills, cleo
trio, steam and elevated cars, band
Of martial music and gang of quarry
men blasting rock. A horse that was
drilled among such a bedlam as this
would indeed prove Immune to strange
noises The gentle family horse, petted
by man and child, is not always train
ed to all this, yet he often makes a use
full and faithful animal, loved by his
owner and evidently making some re-
turn Of affection.-Detroit Tribune.

Icebergs as Indicators.

In the investigation of the currents
round the coast of Newfoundland it
has been observed that there is at
times wide difference in the direction
of the drift of icebergs and that Of
the fiat or pan ice, which, having no
great depth, is governed in its mo-
tons by the surface currents and the
winds, whereas the icebergs, the lar
ger part of which is submerged to
great depth, follow only the movement
of the ocean water as a whole and are
uninfuenced by the winds. In conse-
Quence huge berg may often be seen
majestlcally maintaining its slow ad-
vance In opposition to the wind and
across the general motion Of the fields
of fiat ice surrounding it. The sealers
often take advantage Of this fact by
moorlng their vessels to an iceberg in
order to prevent a drift to Toward
