Pineapp1es at De1ray.

Pineapple planting is now on and
many of. the growers are busy either
setting out slips or preparing the
ground for them The acreage devot-
ed to pineapples will be greatly in
creased this year. The pineapple
growers of this section all made money
the past season, and this has encourag-
ed others to locate here, and those
who are in the business are increasing
their acreage.
There is a good demand for pine
apple slips, and some of the older
growers are making good profit by
disposing of their slips. One grower
has an order for 100000 slips, of the
red Spanish variety, to be shipped to
Porto Rico. These slips are packed
in crates and two carloads have al
ready been shipped.
The growers about here are general
~ prosperous and Delray shows it's
prosperity as quickly as any place
along the east coast Miami Record.

Made Profit on Pears.

The following item is from the
Gainesville Sun:
Mrs. M e. Miller, who owns a small
but we'll kept pear orchard at Kama
paha, near Arredondo and a few miles
southwest Of Gainesville, is happy
over the fact that she has made a good
thing financially from the crop this
year, for the season just closing.
Mrs. Miller, who is a widow lady,
had the orchard planted about seven
years ago. About three years ago,
Notwithstanding that she had a nice
home, comfortably arranged, on &C.
count of her son and daughter, she
left Kanapaha and followed them to
Daytona, thence to- Jacksonville,
where she is still residing, except in
the pear season, when, with her son,
George, she comes to personally super
intend the gathering, packing and
shipping Of the fruit.
1T has been said by horticulturists
that there is little or no money in the
raising Of pears This fruit appears
to be prolific yielder, as rule in
sipid in flavor, and hardly worth the
picking and packing; but Mrs. Miller's
orchard has always been paying one,
for the reason that the variety of her
orchard is something extra in quality,
and because under her supervision,
the fruit is gathered and handled so
nicely.
From Mrs. Miller's orchard the past
season, was shipped two hundred bar
rels Of as fine pears as ever left Flo
rida or any other state. They were

Nests Built for Birds.-A year and a
half ago the municipality of Orbe, in
the canton of Vaud, Switzerland
placed artificial nests in the trees
throughout the district in order to
protect and preserve insect-eating
birds in the locality.
The branches of the trees were stud
ded with sharp nails to prevent access
to the nests by the birds enemies.
Blaclzbirds and thrushes were the
first to show their appreciation Of the
facilities provided, and their example
was soon followed by other members
of the feathered tribe.
The artificial nests are closely imi
tated from the originals, and Swiss
naturalist conducts the new industry
which is in the hands of women

Very few people visit the deserted

plausible explanation being that a
bird carried a cherry to- the chimney
