the planter clears a new field every
few years and sets out slips. With
many growers, pines are the only crop,
and the exhausted field is then
abandoned. Others plant out lines,
avOcadOs, sapodilloes and other trees,
between the pineapples at the time the
slips are set out. With this method,
the fruit trees begin to yield their first
crop when the pines die off
Outside of pineapples the only fruit
grown extensively, for the market, is
the ''Key Lime" Botanically the
''Key Lime" is identical with the conf
mon lime cultivated on the mainland,
Citrus medica, varacida, but the soil
and probably other conditions have
modified the fruit, so that the average
size is smaller, and the skin more
smooth than that grown on the penin-
sula. Bright and juicy, it is in active
demand. Planted as cited above, the
trees yield their first crop five years
from the time of planting. All trees
are seedlings and as such bear fruit
remarkably uniform in size and quail
ty. A fixed variety does not, as the
name suggests, exist. Neither the
lime nor any other fruit trees receive
any further attention than a cutting
down of the largest weeds with
machete whenever the occasion calls
for it, nor do the trees receive any
fertilizer OF late years a few growers
have budded grapefruit, various va
rieties of oranges and tangerines on
the lime. Occasional budded trees
have fruited, but it is yet too early
to form an opinion as to the success
of the enterprise.

quantity of the fruit is marketed. It's
precocity on the Keys has been noted
by the writer in one locality where
trees We're loaded with fruit thirty
two months from planting of the

Sub-tropical Laboratory that budding
the avocado is accomplished with al
most the same degree of success as in
budding of the citrus fruits when the
work is performed at the proper sea-
son, and with the right kind of ma
terial BY careful selection. several
varieties of excellent quality have
been found, which extend the avocado

Important Water Suit

Now that Salt Lake County
has commenced suit against those
who filed on waters in Utah
Lake in behalf of the Commercial
Club, it becomes a question in
which the whole county is
interested.
1t would be good thing to
determine whether there is
any available water in the lake
not already being used by Salt
Lake County. If there is none
it is utter foolishuess for any one
to look to that source for future
water supply in new ventures.
However it is the opinion of
many, backed by careful measure
ments and scientific estimates,
that there is enough water in the
lake for Salt Lake County and
still leave ample for the Utah and
Wasatch County needs. If this
be true, and we are of the opinion
that it is, then our claims should
be vigorously maintained for the
sake of future developments in
irrigation.
In considering such questions
the future must be regarded as
more important than the present.
Lehi, in the past, lost a valuable
water supply that now might be
a possession of great value by
failing to look iar enough into
the future needs of the city. Let
us profit by this lesson and to-
gether with others interested in
Utah Lake water rights defend
our claims.

CONFESSES that He LIED
One of the Witnesses for Con-
viCted Murderer Patrick
Makes Admission,

New York, Feb. 27.-Joseph Jordan,
one of the Texas witnesses who has
given testimony in the hearing for a
new trial for Albert T. Patrick, con-
victed murderer, has confessed that he
committed perjury on the witness
stand. according to an announcement
made by District Attorney Jerome to-
day.
The announcement was made to Re
corder Golf when the hearing was re-
suTned. Jordan was arrested last night
upon the perjury charge. The district
attorney told Recorder Golf that Jor-
dan sent for him and voluntarily made
a confession in the presence Of him
self and Assistant District Attorney
Garvin.
The particular point upon which the
perjury charge was made was Jordan s
denial on the stand that he had served
a term Of Imprisonment at Huntsville,
Tex. In his confession, the district at
torney says, today Jordan admitted
that he did not serve term at Hunts
Vile.
Later Jordan was indicted for per-
Jury. arraigned, and after pleading
guilty was remanded until Monday for
sentence.
