Society.

The nineteenth annual meeting has
adjourned. We feel very sorry for
those who We're prevented. by circum-
stances beyond their control, from be-
ing present. We take it for granted
that not one of you remained away
from Indifference or lack of interest
1t is not possible to please every
one, therefore we presume that some
have gone away dissa tisfied. But we
feel sure that Il large majority of those
who attended the sessions, will agree
that it was a pleasant and profitable
meeting. The addresses We're eminent
ly practical and treated of subjects of
vital Importance to the horticulturists
of the state. We intend to print a
few of these papers in the Agricultur-
ist for the benefit of our readers. We
hope that the reading of these papers
will SO whet up our appetite, for more
of the same kind, that you will send
one dollar to the secretary Mr.. Z. o.
Painter, Jacksonville, and thus secure
a copy of the proceedings, which will
contain not only all the papers read
but also a full stenOgraphic report of
the interesting discussions which fol-
lowed. We wish to urge another real
son why you should do this. The
society is doing a great work for the
good of all residents of the state. But
it is very much hampered by lack of
funds. At the close of the meeting.

So far the season has been a good
one for gardeners and fruit growers.
Florida cabbage, celery and lettuce
have brought good prices in market,
and the crops have mostly been large
enough to render the growers profit
able returns. Strawberries have been
turning out very we'll and prices have
held up remarkably.
The Irish potato crop is good and
returns excellent On the whole. Our
citizens have nothing to complain of

Fire From Lightning.

Elsewhere you will find an article.

statistics of the losses from fire caused
by lightning in the state of Ohio. The
ticle in lightning and lightning con-
ductOrs. The writer does not claim
to be an expert authority on rodding
buildings but, thinks that he can write
with some authority on account of
having studied the subject quite ex-
tensively.
About the only new thing i'm his ar
ticle is the advice to surround the
building with cage of wire. not only
wires up and down from the peak of
the roof to the ground, but also hOri-
zontal wires going around the build

water spOuts, etc. The wires must go
deeply into the earth and should be
attached to some large piece of metal,
plow points, old copper bottom to boil
er or something similar There is no
doubt that this would add to the
security of the buildings by lessen
ing the danger from lightning.
Whether it would be profitable or not
is another question. We believe in
lightning rods, but they are a much
supposed. A continuous strip of gal
vanized hoop iron that will reach from
a point a few feet above the roof down
to moist earth, the water in a we'll is
the very best place to ground the
conductor. If that is not possible, then
see that it reaches to permanently
around an old plOw point or similar
piece of iron so much the better. If
the building is large there should be
at least two of the points above the
roof, though they may be connected
and reach the earth by one strip.
There is no need of any Insulation,
nail the strip to the roof and sides of
the house. If there are any cave
trOughs be sure that they are also
with the conductor
These precautions will render your
reasonably safe from danger
Of damage from lightning.

Many pertinent and interesting ques-
tiOns were asked. Some were easily
answered. while others, as might be
expected, were not answerable by any
one, at least not satisfactorily.
Wednesday evening, we were to
have had an address by DIR. A. T.
Woods, Assistant Chief of the Bureau
of Plant Industry, U. S. Dept. of
Agriculture. But for some reason the
Doctor did not get to the meeting and
we missed the address.
The report of the standing commit
tee on Pineapples and Other Tropical
Fruits was next in order Pro- p. H.
Rolls read an interesting descriptive
paper OH Other Tropical Fruits aside
from pineapples. His words, we have
no doubt, excited an interest i'm the
subject which will lead to the plant
ing of many more mangoes, sapadil-
lOeS etc. At the close of his address,
Prof. Blair of Florida State Universi-
ty read half of his paper. Some Notes
on Pineapple Experiments at Jensen.
These notes We're of great interest and
incidentally to all others who use COM
merciaI fertilizers. Soon after 8 O'Clock
the society adjourned and went in a
body to the Board of Trade rooms
where we We're pleasantly entertained
for two hours or more with Il concert
given by the Ladies Friday Musicale.
Thursday morning Prof Blair finish
ed reading his paper after which the
standing committee on Fertilizers and
Irrigation made very full report,
there being four written papers, some
of them quite long and all interest
ing and valuable. Following the report
was il lively discussion of the fertil-
zer question. Major G. z. Healy stat
ed that he had restored his grove. kill
ed down by the freeze, to a bearing
condition without pound of CONNER
cial fertilizer, simply by growing beg
gar-weed. velvet beans etc. Other
members did not approve Of this meth
cd and instances were reported where
the continuous use of these crops. in
grove, had proved to be quite injur-
ious.
The committee on Nut Culture also
made very full reports, each member
presenting one i'm writing. All seemed
confident that there is a great future
in store for the Pecan industry.
The afternoon session opened with
a paper on the Geology of Florida i'm
Relation to its Artesian Water Supply,
by Prof. E. H. Sellards of Lake City.
The election of officers came next in
order. President McCarty was unan-
reelected. Prof. p H. Rolls,
Mr.. Sampson and f. d. Waite were
elected vice-presidents. The secretary,
Mr.. f. o. Painter, and Mr.. w. S. Hart,
the treasurer, were unanimously re-
elected The Executive Committee

on the program was an address on
NematOde Diseases, by DR.. E. A. BsS-
sey, PathOlOgist in charge of the Sub

address was about. When we say
that the much dreaded rOOt-knOt of the

yOu will understand the Importance
of the subject We shall give this

After the address came the report
of the standing committee on Citrus
fruits. which was followed by con-
discussion of the subject by
different members.
The report of the standing committee
on Diseases. Insects and Methods of
Control, ELECTED still more interest
and discussion. The subject of the
ravages of the White-fy was discus
sed quite fully. Mr. f. ID. Waite, of
Palmetto, exhibited some specimens
of the Manatee snail, which he has
found to be able and willing, if allowed
a chance, to entirely destroy the sOOty
mould caused by the White-fy and to
leave the foliage and fruit as bright and
glossy as could be desired. Wednes-
day afternoon session opened with an
address by Prof. F. H. Rolls. Director
Of the Florida Experiment Station, OH

Work. Next came the report of the
committee on Peaches, Plums

entirely confined to Peaches. Indis-
putable evidence was produced show
ing that the business of growing peach
as for northern markets may be made
very profitable and that the demand
