A New Enemy to Sugar Cane.

We have heard report that new
enemy of sugar cane has appeared in
some parts of South Florida. It is
said that small worm was brought
with the Japanese sugar cane, and has
spread from that to the older common
varieties and become so destructive, in
some places, as to cause the entire ruin
Of the crop and cause the abandon
ment Of the cultivation Of the crop.
We have advocated the trial OF
Japanese cane, because it is not only
good for syrup, but is an excellent
forage crop and furnishes green feed
very early in the spring. But if it
should prove to be infested with a
worm which is SO very destructive,
then it is not safe to introduce it into
new sections of the state.
We shall be very glad to have re-
ports on this subject. What is the
truth about it?

The New Horticulture.

Why is it that new ideas are so long
in getting a foothold? Is it because
people are satisfied to ''1et we'll enough
alone? That can hardly be, for many
peach and pear orchards and orange
groves are not doing we'll enough.
However, it is not an easy matter to
change an old orchard or grove from
the culture method to the mulch meth
3D. But it might be done, if care was
taken to fertilize and mulch heavily.
But We certainly do think that any
one who is planting more trees Of any
kind, makes mistake if he does net
try this method on at least a part OF
them. A general adoption of this plan
would save so much in express ard
freight charges, as the trees could be
cut back at the nursery and then less
packing material would be needed and
hence less weight to pay charges OH.
Another thing would be the great saw
ing in digging holes and setting the
trees. At least two-thirds of the time
and labor usually spent at this work
would be saved and if, as is claimed,
the trees do better, why not save it?

Farmers Of Today and Of the Past.

AS you all know, we have tried to
impress upon our readers that farming,
in all its branches, is a profession and
one that is not to be sneered at or
looked down upon. The following,
from the Rural Californian, hardly
needs any comment. 1t is right in line
with our ideas as to true rank of farm
ers.
Among the strongest proofs of the
progress of the world is in the eleva-
ton of the status of the producers from
the soil, in giving agriculture and horti-
culture dignity that accords with their
Importance. In the medieval ages this
was denied to them, and laborers in
the field we're serfs. The gentleman
was one who did not work. Under the
influence of democratic government
civilization has progressed and the class
that was once treated as inferior has

A PURE FOOD LAW.

which comes from such a law The
public may buy the cheaper fats at a
lower price if they want to, while the
producer of more expensive fat is
protected from dishonest competition
We are told in this Kentucky report
how stock feed is adulterated. Ground
corncobs or crushed stalks and oar
hulls are mixed with bran or other
feed. In one case mixture of ground
corncObs and bran was sold as pure
bran. It seems that this stuff was
labeled and kept in the store until the
Inspector looked at it, but when a
farmer came for grain the labels were
taken off and it was sold as pure bran.
These food frauds have been taking
millions out Of the pub1ic-all over the
country. If the pure food bill can be
thoroughly enforced it will save the
public and aid farmers
North Dakota has a strong pure
food law, which is being enforced.
Among other things, the law demands
that packages or bottles must bear the
net true weight Dealers in canned
goods claimed that the law should not
be enforced against them, as one can
always weighs as much as another. In

Of such goods as canned corn, peas or
tomatoes varied from 10 to 80 per cent
in weight. In three years since the law
was enforced the average can has
gained over 10 per cent in weight of
contents, while the cans run practically
uniform in weight This shows what
Gamers will do when they realize that
inspection means business A little in
vestigation and use of the scales at
home will show any of us that we are
getting short weight in many of the
prepared foods we buy.

This Weeks Paper.

Mr.. Neeld growls at the growers for
allowing themselves to be scared into
selling their crop too soon because
some Of the buyers said that the Flori-
da orange crop was SO large this year
that prices must go down. How long
will our growers listen to the siren
song of the buyers and be fooled into
selling at the buyers own price? Will
they never learn that the buyers inter-
ests and their own are exactly OPP
posite? That the buyer is always ready
to say anything that will lower the
price? Moreover, the estimates print
ed by the Trade papers, are almost al
ways too high. These papers are all
run very largely in the interests Of
the commission men, and naturally give
an estimate which will be most for their
advantage
The leading article, this week is on
the subject Of the comparative value Of
sheep and dogs. We have more to
say on the subject elsewhere.
If you are at all interested in grow
ing fruit trees, of any kind, we hope
that you will read the article on the
mulch method of growing trees.
How much does it cost you not to
read? If you doubt that the habit Of
not reading is an expensive one, we
advise you to read the editorial from
the Southern Cultivator
Dairying ought to become an i'm
portant industry in Florida We have
no doubt that it will as soon as the
citizens Of the state awake to the op-
portunity which lies waiting for them.
From an item, in the California Fruit
Grower, it seems that California truck
ers get considerably the start of Flori-
da gardeners. Tomatoes and celery
are both going forward fro mthat state
already.
The enactment of Pure Food Law
by the last congress was a long step
in the right direction. But there is
still need for good state law with
provisions for its vigorous enforce
ment. Some idea of the need and the
effort of such law, properly enforced.

we copy from the New Yorker

ing profession is shown in the article

Sheep.


Why is it that F1oridians do not keep
more sheep? Probably the answer is,
dogs. When will the farmers learn
that they have rights as we'll as the
hunters, and that any one who wishes
to keep hunting dog should be re-
CURED to keep it in confinement?
Dogs should not be allowed to run at
large any more than any dangerous
animal. That they are dangerous is not
any longer a question. Numerous
cases Of rabies have settled that, be-
yond the possibility of doubt.
If they should take to killing hogs
as they do sheep, the hog owners
would be up in arms and something
would be done at once But because
so few sheep are kept and because their
owners are not organized for self pro-
lection, the case of the sheep against
the dog goes by default.
Almost every one likes good NUT
ton, when properly cooked 1t is
wholesome and cheap and ought to be
much more abundant than it is.
Two Or three sheep could be easily
kept in pasture which would not
support a COW, because the sheep will
live by browsing on weeds and bushes
where COW would starve
Why not begin a campaign of edu-
cation on the sheep and dog question?
Let the farmers of each neighborhood
organize and make their power felt
until they can get the legislature which
they need to protect them in the keep
ing of sheep.
We have a law now that all dogs
shall be taxed but there is no provision
for its enforcement If the law requir-
ed that each dog should pay tax and
that the owner should receive a tag
which the dog must wear at all times
or be liable to be shot, we should soon
see much larger number OF dogs list
ed for taxation. Not only that, but
there should be a reward for the killing
of untaxed dogs and a fine for any
constable who allowed one to live in
his district
OF course an untagged dog found
killing sheep would be an outlaw and

could be shot on sight If tagged
dog was seen at this work, trap him
and then compel his owner to make
good all damage. Such a law would
soon settle the dog and sheep question

manual labor for a livelihood was as
signed to a low social grade. 1t is
different in democratic America where
there are no peasants, but where are
citizens and equals in the recognition
and under the protection of the laws.
In this country agriculturalists are
riglrtfully deemed the bulwark of its
defence, most largely the bone, muscle
and brain Of its successes and great
ness. From the agricultural districts
the cities are recruited, deriving re-
neWals Of their deteriorated and ex-
hausted populations.
The men who toll in producing from
the soil are the greatest benefactors
Of the human species, the element most
valuable to the world. In this country
the rise of the agriculturalists has been
phenomenal as compared to what has
occurred in any other through respect
here to merit wherever manifested.
The agriculturists have been conspicu-
ously influential in bringing about
changes for the better in social con-
ditions.
The time was, in this country, when
there were but, meagre openings out
side Of farming to the sons of farmers,
and when production from the soil
was impoverishingly in surplus of the
demand, and as a consequence food
products and raw materials were cheap.
At the present time from the tremen-
dous increase Of population the demand
has become quite equal to the supply
encouraged to larger production from
the same areas the consumption is
liable to exceed the production, and
prices to advance and consequently
the cost of living.
This prospect is not unobserved, nor
is it without due consideration, and
hence the importance of the farmers
occupation is enhanced. Efforts are
being put forward to increase pro-
duction, not through more arduous
physical labor, but through the acquis-
ton of knowledge of scientific princi-
pies, and the practice of greater skill
and economy in husbandry. The time
has come, and it will be more pressing
in the future, when to meet the larger
demand for soil products there must be
a larger force Of workers and more
land brought into cultivation, or the
present area more intelligently and
better cultivated. Much of the virgin
soil Of America has become worn, in
fact some Of it exhausted If really no
greater number of workers are needed,
more that are better equipped in the
science Of production are required
More muscular may not be so much in
demand as more brain work, and better
knowledge and application of natural
laws.
In New England and much of the
east where lands are less responsive to
labor than in the west, farms have
been abandoned. In the main the rich
er lands Of the west are occupied, COM
paratively but small portion remains
to be put to productive uses to meet
the wants of a rapidly growing popula-
