Florida Orange Crop.

The outlook for a good crop Of or
anges in Florida was never better,
declared w. A. Beath, of Plant City,
Fla, to a representatives Of the New
York Packer Continuing, he said
that weather conditions had been just
right for oranges and that there will
be gathered a crop of the finest quail
ity of oranges since the big freeze
eleven years ago. you know every
thing in Florida" said Mr.. Beath,
dates from the big freeze"
The quantity that will be shipped,
will not be unusually large, but he
predicts that the quality will be great.
Rains came at just the right time to
give the fruit a good start. In drouth
years the growth is stunted and the
dryness hardens the peel or effects
the pulps and causes the peel to burst.
Again it produces peel so tender
that the orange will not carry well.
Mr.. Beath believes that there should
be yield of from $500 to 5000 boxes.
He considers the question of pack.
ing oranges a very important subject
and believes that if the growers will
only give this more attention it will
mean thousands upon thousands of
dollars to them, which is now lost in
irregular grading. Many growers
have the idea that it is all right to
put all kinds of fruit in each package
This is very wrong, because when
poor fruit is put in with the good
it usually means ruinous prices for
all such packages.
Everybody agrees that the past
vegetable season in Florida was the
best they ever had. Everything
brought good prices. Fall vegetables
such as eggplant, beans, sweet pota
toes, cucumbers and tomatoes will
commence to move the latter part OF
September.
