A New ORANGE that IS FROST
PRooI.-At the Government expert
mental gardens at Miami, Fla, Dr. W
1. Swingie aud pr. ii. J. Weber, two
plant wizards in the employ of the
Department OF Agriculture, have pro-
duced two new creations in the way
of fruits. They are called the tangelo

OF the taugerine orange and the POM
clio, or grape fruit. It has readily
separate skin, is dark orange in color,
slightly acid, highly favored, rather
sweet, attractive in appearance and
with segments that come easily apart
OF far more Importance, however, is
the citrange, q cross between the
Japanese orange, which is frost-proof,
and the Florida orange. The product
has safely passed a temperature of six
degrees below zero, and is therefore
practically immune up to that elm
attic extreme all over the country.
The Department OF Agriculture be.
lieses they Can be grown without pro-
lection in South Carolina, Georgia,
Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Ar
kansas, Tennessee, Texas, California,
Oregon and Washington. 1t is quite
obvious that this immunity from the
usual menace TO tropical prod ct
will prove OF great service to the pro-
motors Of that crop.

continuation of the strike would
result in bloodshed. "Remem ber,"

the victim OF the railroad tieup. He
is at PeterhOf, with no means for
