Notes BY the Way.

1t has been pleasant to meet some
of our Jacksonville Sunshine friends.
Westchester county is thought by
many to be the banner county Of New
York. Scarsdale, Hailsdale, Tucka-
hoe, White Plains, which reminded us
Of Jacksonville, and Mount Vernon,
all seemed very delightful, while no
thing could exceed the perfection of
the day when we took the fine new
boat, Hendrick Hudson for a sail up
the historic Hudson, called the 'FRhine
of America" BY palisades and head
lands, towns and light houses, homes
of wealthy people well known to us
all and low-lying wooded shores, we
sailed peacefully, returning at once
on another boat from Poughkeepsie,
studying the points to- fix them in our
minds as lasting memorial to this
wonderful trip.

Truck Farming.

''How about truck farmingY' says
the Pensacola News. "And we say
so, too,' echoes the Live Oak Demo-
crat. That business is no longer in
the experimental stage in Florida. It
is an approved success of the first
magnitude, and our state exchanges
are every week publishing plain items
of news telling of the extraordinary
returns received by the truck growers
who is ION to his job"
But this good fortune is not for
every one. The successful truck grow
er must be we'll equipped for his work.
He must he a specialist He must
make a study of some particular
branch of the business and he must
give all the energies of his mind and
body to that branch. The average
cotton farmer with his loose, careless,
old-fashioned methods, his slavish
conformity to the agricultural sys-
tenn of his fathers, his stolid conser-
walton and his general indisposition
to think and act on new lines, will
never, never make a successful modern
truck grower as long as he clings to

The Orange Tree.

The orange tree is the longest lived
fruit tree. 1t begins to bear the third
year after budding, and for one hun
dred years it will yield an abundant
crop. Orange trees have been known
to attain the ripe age of 300 years.
The orange tree requires less care
and attention than any other fruit
tree. It's early growth is rapid In
the first two years it grows more than
it will in the next fifty. This refers,
of course, to it's height and breadth
alone; it's fruit stems and consequent
ly it's crops increase more rapidly
after the first ten years.-Bxchange.

GENERAL SUNSHINE.
The Blind Babies.

We see, then, that often children in
beautiful homes are not having the
happiness in their lives which be-
longs to childhood. Let us turn, then,
to the children who have miseries both
of the heart and body from their
birth
The blind babies have been a sub
ject for our sunshine thought for some
time. 1t is my privilege to visit them
often in their home just across the
avenue from our beautiful rest home.
Mrs. Tregear and Mrs. Alden are
very tender to them-"Here we are,"
they called, and in minute they chung
around Mrs. Alden, feeling her hands,
her rings, her watch, her dress all
talking like magpies at once.
The little ones are so happy and
those of us who wonder at it are often
more depressed by untoward circum-
stances than they seem to be; they
make the most of their simple pleas
ures, their minds are active, their i'm
aginations fertile to supply food for
reflection, and an inexhaustible fund
of cheerfulness and mirth.
At a little party of Dora's friends
from the blind school to which these
babies are sent at eight years of age,
one thought to help entertain but like
other girls they had the resources for
their own entertaining and one did not
desire to interrupt the girlish conf
dences. They sought the piano and
sang, the piano being out of tune, be-
fore a lawn party soon held, blind
tuner found his way out from New
York, reached the house alone and
put it in order. We all assisted at the
lawn party and all were highly enter
tanned. One CLEANS many anecdotes
and bright remarks; one of them said,
''Mrs. Gregear, I am all ready and
waiting for my deserts but I am not
saying anything."
They are very fond of Alfred, the
boy who assists them from the Rest
Home, and his experiences are Of great
account to them Their big dog,
Buster Brown was at first little too
energetic for them and Alfred pretend
ed to lose him. Of course he did not

Now I lay me down to sleep
Don't want to sleep; I want to
think.
I didn't mean to spill that ink;
1 only meant to softly creep
Under the desk and be bear

An sobbed about the naughty spot"
She'd said, "He shan't be whipped; he

But [ don't think it's fair bit
That when she talks and talks at

She says, "Now that'll do, my son;

those old habits and those old pre-
cedents. He must sponge out very
much what he has learned about
farming, and with a clean mind, freed
from prejudice, start in to learn new
and improved agriculture. He must
take counsel with people already in
the business and who have succeeded,
and he must get rid finally and for
ever of the utterly senseless idea that
he can learn nothing from the agri-
cultural and truck growing journals,
about the business he is going into.
The successful truck growers are
almost without exception, well inform
ed, reading men, and pretty nearly
all there is to know about the truck
growing that makes money is told in
some form or other in print by the
men who have done the work, made
the experiments and won the success.
These men we read about in the pa
pers every year in Florida who make
big money in tomatoes, potatoes,
strawberries, celery and other truck
products, are men of rare intelligence
and energy, who give their undivided
attention to their work; who study
the soil, the various methods of cul-
ture, the markets, the freight rates,
the laws Of supply and demand, and
in the home of every one of them will
be found the standard periodicals on
farming and fruit culture and truck
ing where the best minds in the bust
ness give expression to their views and
there is always something of practical
value to be learned
Successful truck and fruit growers
are superior class of men, unhamp-
cred by old farming prejudices who
couragements or failures Of a single
season, but with faith based ON know
ledge stick to it until the golden har-
vest comes their way.
There is no doubt but that one can
not know too much about farming,
the same as in every other business,
but this knowledge can be acquired
only and through practical experience,
the dearest, but best of teachers. The
truckers of Dade county have already
learned valuable lessons from over
acreage, insufficient knowledge, etc.,
and as result they are now plant
ing upon scientific plan and expect
the next season to he the best in the
history of the country. Miami Metro

Mr.. E. o. Painter,
Jacksonville, Fla,
Dear Sir:
We have sent q sample box Of oranges to
Mr.. Wambolt as instructed in your circular
to compete for your Simon Pure Prize. Greatly
to the surprise of many, our grove has gone
through the freeze uninjured. It being % nice
and green now as before the freeze. We are
telling people that it is because we use your
fertilizer, and that it being in good condition
has stood the cold wave while many near ~
will lose all the leaves from the trees.
Yours very truly,

THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK.

Retzsch, a German sculptor, made
a wonderful statue of the Redeemer.
For eight years it was his dream by
night and his thought by day. He
first made clay model and set it be-
fore a child five or six years old.
There were about the figure none of
the usual emblematic marks designat-
ing the Savior-no cross, no crown of
thorns, by which to identify it. Yet
when the child saw it, and was asked
who it was, he said, "Suffer little
children to come unto -. r. Mil
Ter.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1906-10-03

Who may not see that a child lies
under many restrictions, as to ack-
nowledge it barbarous to add to this
restraint that of our caprices?
How subject are those who judge
precipitately Of children to be egregi-
ously deceived? They often betray,
in this, less judgment than the chill
dren of whom they judge.-J. J. Rous-
seau.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1906-10-03

The twig is so easily Bonded,
[ have banished the rule and the rod,
I have taught them the goodness of
knowledge,
They have taught me the goodness of
God.
My heart is a dungeon of darkness,
Where I shut them from breaking
rule;
My frown is sufficient correction;
MY love is the law of the school.
