Predicts Fine Pineapple Crop.

c. NJ. Barton. Of Jacksonville, repre-
sentative Of Merryday l. Co., crate
manufacturers, OF Palatka, spent
Thanksgiving Day in Fort Pierce,
at the Stetson house. Mr.. Barton is
we'll known among the fruit growers of
the East Coast, having been selling
crates to them for the past Ia years.
He is a careful observer of crops and
conditions and reports that the pineap-
pie fine condition for the coming crops
Large sales OF crate material have been
made this season. already in excess of
last year. Mr.. Barton expresses the
belief that no enterprise is based on
any frmer foundation than the pineap-
pie industry. In all his IA years deal
ing with our growers losses on bad &C
counts have been less one half of per
cent, and on last years accounts not a
dollar remains unpaid-a record that is
unsurpassed and probably unparalleled.

RAISING BANANAS
IN FORT PIERCE

Anyone interested in banana culture
in Florida will do well to see the start
made IN this direction by Capt Geo
Saunders at the north end OF town and
&, +, Killer in the southwestern por
ton. While there are many others
here who are growing this fruit these
two gentlemen are perhaps giving
more attention to the matter than
others and their experiments are being
watched with interest Capt. Saun.
ders' plants are growing on low piece
Of ground near the river, location
that would seem admirable. Mr..
Killers experiments in banana culture
are being made under exactly opposite
conditions, the land in question being
higher and dryer and OF a different
character. 1t is a question, however,
which is doing the better, the fine con-
dition of the fruit going to prove that
all soil in Florida is good and if looked
after intelligently will produce al
most anything.
