About The Agriculturist.

The Agriculturist does not, as a
rule, publish the complimentary
things said about it by it's cores
pondents and the brethren of the
press, but we cannot resist the temp
tation to give our readers the follow
ing extracts from letters recently re-
ceived
Mr.. H. A. Graves, proprietor of the
Gainesville Nurseries, who would be
placed on our mailing list as re-
gular advertiser free, says: 81 have
been running small ad in your paper
for some time, and expect to place a
permanent one the coming season, but
your paper is worthy of all encour-
agement [ think, so | enclose years

Mr.. w. c. Hewitt, superintendent
of the citrus department Of the devel-
opment of Cuba, at Ceballos, writes:
SWe are doing things over here in
the citrus line The colony has over
1000 acres out-about 800 acres in
planting, I am finding the Agrl-
bearing this year, fourth year from
culturist greatly improved You are
to be congratulated. 1t is now second
to none of some twelve to fifteen pa
pers that I take along horticultural
and agricultural lines"
We could probably quote hundreds
Of similar expressions, but we Sc
1ect these because of the opportunity
the writer's have of comparing the
Agriculturist with other papers.

occasionally 1t Is said that dredges
from other countries may enter into

such reports are probably Idle and
merely the result of impatience be-
cause American manufacturers cannot
at present fill all orders promptly.
Calls for gold dredges come from
California, Montana, Idaho and Colo.
RADIO. Gold dredging Is to be tried In
siberia and in the valleys of the Yalu.
the Amur, the Hoangho and the
1angtze. The present inability of
American dredge manufacturers to
supply the demand is perhaps chiefly
due to Panama canal requirements.
1t Is expected that the introduction
OF dredges will greatly Increase the
output of gold in the Klondlke. In
