stof perhaps the last public message Gov

perhaps the most interesting feature
of the day will bc the innovation which
Governor Montague Will likely innuEu-
afstc IN the manner OF laying his n.vs-
sage before the body.
II Is understood that instead of sending
Tho paper to the two houses TO be read
by the clerks. the Governor will depart
from this custom, and read the docu-
inent personally before a joint session of
& The two houses In the hail Of the lower
branch. This has never been done in the
apresent generation, but IL is said that all
1.-The old Governors pursued the course Of
personally reading their messages to the
Legislature. so the Governor may be
revlving an ancient custom rather than
abrogating one There is little doubt that
his departure will bring many visitors
TO the Capitol to-day.
The two Houses Will be called to order
promptly at noon by their respective
f clerks These officers will preside until

business consists in selling seeds in
bulk, by the quart, pound &c.
Still it is not at all fair for the
government to discriminate so against
the seed business. Every farmer
needs a pocket knife quite as much
as he does seeds. The cost of these
knives, if bought by the hundred
thousand as the seeds are, would not
greatly exceed that of packet of
seeds such as are sent out to the vo-
tiers of the country. If this were done,
how long before the hardware mer-
chants would be in revolt?
We have had an opportunity to
know that the lists of names to whom
the seeds are mailed are very care
lessly made and never revised. Often
two or three lots will be sent to one
name. Again packages will be sent
to parties that have been dead or
moved away for years. These seeds
are total loss, for they lie around in
the post-ofices until thrown out with
the rubbish, they cannot be given
away for no one wants them
Have you used what influence you
have to put an end to this great
fraud and farce? Are you doing all
that you can to impress upon the
member of congress from your dis
trlct that you want a parcels post?
Tell him that it would do you much
more good than all the free seeds
that have been sent to you since
they began to be sent out.

Guavas.

The different varieties of the COM
mon Guavas (Psidium Guajava), are
quite common in South Florida. But
there are many parts Of the state IN
which it cannot be successfully grown
on account Of the cold winters. A
frost which will kill the leaves, will
kill the bush as we'll.
In most Of the state, or at least
those parts where the orange can
be grown it is possible to have plenty
of Guavas by planting the more hardy
varieties. Psidium lucidum, the hardy
yellow or Chinese Guava, often call
ed the yellow cattley, is the most
hardy species. It is not quite as
hardy as an orange tree, but will
stand six or seven degrees of frost
without injury, if in dormant con-
dition. The individual fruits are not
large, but are borne in such enormous
numbers that the crop is abundant.
They do not have the disagreeable
odor of the common Guava, and the
flavor is relished by many who cannot
eat the other. The Cattley Guava,
Psidium Cattleyanum, is very much
like the P lucidum, but the fruit is
red instead of yellow. 1t has also,
an entirely different flavor and odor.
It smells more like ripe apple than
any other fruit which we have ever
seen in this state One name for it
is Strawberry Guava, why, we do not
know, as it has not the remotest re-
semb1ance to a strawberry in smell
or flavor
Both of these varieties make jelly
which is relished by most people. The
red kind is not quite so hardy as the
yellow. Both should have a place in
many fruit gardens, where they are
not now known.

Value Of Peanuts as a Food.

While thousands of people consume
their pack of peanuts, little is known
of this palatable and companionable
nut-companionable because there is
such satisfaction in having them near
at hand, they help to pass away the
time-people eat and continue to eat
until every nut is gone, totally una
ware that they are consuming the
most nutritious food that can be OBJ
tanned. The little peanut that only
few years ago was considered by
the physicians as unfit to put into the
stomach, is now the basis of food
products of one of the largest SAM
tariums in the country-analysis
proves it to contain three times the
nutriment of beef-hence, as it be-
comes better known and it's value
realized, it enters the bill of fare in
the shape of peanut butter, sailed
peanuts, soup, cakes, etc. Many vege-
tarians through the country use no
other bread lubricant than peanut
butter which has been prepared from
the roasted nut-American NUT .Jonr-
nal.
