may be had from May to October or
i'm many places, not in as great variety
as at the North, but good ones have
been ripened here and a few trees of
such kinds as have been found to
thrive would pay well for little care
and cultivation. What is known as
the Yellow Cattley guava is almost
as hardy as an orange tree and should
be planted wherever the orange can
be grown. The Cattley, red or straw
berry guava. is not so hardy but is
earlier and much better fruit.
Were you from the Northern states?
If so, do you miss the currant jelly
of your old home? There is a fruit
not i'm common cultivation. that makes
very good substitute A few trees
of variety of Elaeagnus, said to be
lOngipes. but not agreeing exactly with
the description of that species, have
found their way into this neighbor
hood. The trees grow from 10 to 20
feet high, are evergreen, and stood
temperature of 10 last January with
out injury and bore fruit this year.
The fruit is small. quite acid and
makes very good jelly. Where it will
stand the winters. RhOdOmyrtus To
mentOsus, commonly called dOwny
myrtle, is fruit that should be
found i'm every garden. 1t is large
shrub and is well worthy of place
for its flowers if it never bore fruit.
The blossoms are very large, pale pink
and cover the bush almost entirely.
The fruit which ripens for several
weeks in the fall is dark purple almost
black, and has more of the raspberry
flavor than any other fruit that we
know. The bushes are not hardy in
Northeast Florida, but will stand %
to %. and we keep it for the flowers
and fruit though we do not get crop
more than once in two years.
There are usually one or more grape
vines on every old place, of the So
called ScuppernOng varieties. The
name ScuppernOng really belongs to
the white kind only. These are much
better than no grapes but are a poor
substitute for such varieties as Della
ware, Brighton, Niagara, etc. These
grapes can be grown to perfection in
Florida Their cultivation for North
ern markets has been almost entirely
as it did not prove profit
able, not because the grapes would
not grow but on account of low prices.
Nearly every variety can be raised
that is known to Northern grape
growers. The Concord will grow
and set large crops of fruit
but the grapes will not ripen up even
ly, when some berries on bunch will
be ripe others will be as green as they
ever were, therefore the Concord is
not good kind to set out i'm this
state
We have not attempted to give
full list of the fruits that may be
grown in the farmers gardens. In
fact there are so many that we could

T. A. Jameson, who has one of the
largest rental agencies in the city and
is an authority in the management of

rapid growth is the way new fat build

take the fact that 5000 houses and
about six hundred to seven hundred
apartments were erected in Mime

few vacancies, you cannot help being
convinced of the growth of Minneapolis

sirable fiat building
Mr.. Jameson, asked as to rents in
this city compared with other cities,
said: 81 have compared our rents
with such cities as Buffalo, Kansas, City,
Winnipeg and Cleveland. and we are an
average of 25 per cent lower than any
