FERNS. IN FLORIDA
By H. Nehrling.
Continued from last week. }

The surface Of the soil in this region
OF Florida (western Orange county,,
is quite hilly,- and deep ravines and
shady dells are frequently met with.
In the rainy season, from June to
October, the gentle murmurlng Of the
water changes to a noisy roar as the
rain-SWelled brooks rush onward to the
lakes. Large pines have fallen across
the ravlnes, forming natural bridges.
The perpendicular banks disclose their
lower strata of clay, near the water
the ground is covered with a dense
thick carpet Of Sphagnum moss and
leaf mould, among which large tufts Of
a beautiful aroid, Peltandra sagittae-
lola, are everywhere seen. This plant
is always handsome, either in its BLUSH
green ample foliage, or in it's conspicu-
Gus white plumes, or in its glossy and
globose fruit-heads. Azaleas (Azalea
nundiorah), Andromedas (Leucothae
racemosa, Pieris nitida, Andromeda
ligasttrina), Huckleberries, Bejaria
racemosa, etc, grow here in abundance.
In some places small groups OF the
blue-howering Wampee (Pontederla
cordata) and the Florida Water Lily
(Castalla reniformls) have found a
home. The most prominent features,
however, are the large and noble mas
ses Of tall Ferns, growing in the shady
hooks of the steep walls, or near the
running water. The elegant vase-like
clumps OF the Cinnamon Fern (Or-
munda cinnamomea) are mostly seen,
usually in large colonies, each speci-
men attaining a height Of three to
hn feat &c
name Cinnamon Fern is we'll chosen
owing to the color of it's fertile fronds,
which when ripe, look like sticks Of
cinnamon This is equally attractive
as any Towering plant in spring when
the nunberless fertile fronds are dis
played. The plant as here seen is a
superb one. Its tall sterile fronds
curve gracefully outward, while the
slender and shorter fruitlng ones
stand erect in the center Of the stately
crown.
The Royal Fern (Osmunda specta-
bilis) occurs here,I too, but it is not
SO numerous, growing also close to the
waters edge. Like the former, it
reaches grand proportions, attaining
in good soil, height of from five to
seven feet. Being also a perfect pic
ture of elegance and charm it is rather
difficult to decide which of the two is
more beautiful. Both are very distinct
in growth and foliage, and in moist
garden spots they form a very charm
ing background to Caladiums, Xantho-
soma violaceum and x. sagittifolium,
Alocasla macrorrhiza variegata, A..
Ganlainii, A. Indica, A. odora and Co.
locasia illustris. In such "a way they
ought to be extensively used in our
Florida gardens. They can also be
used as background for many small
Ter growing Ferns, like all the follow
ing
The Shield-Ferns are the most COM
mon in shady ravines, particularly
Dryopteris Thelypteris, which grows
about three feet high. Dryopteris
Floridana is similar and attains an
equal height. Both grow in rich, black
soil. Dryopteris patens, said to prefer
for it's habitat calcareous rocks, is a
common Fern in moist, shady hooks.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1907-05-22

1t is easily distinguished from the next
by the woolly or hairy appearance OF
the fronds. Dyopteris unita is a charm
ing species, with light green dense
fronds 1t grows about two feet high
and prefers the waters edge, growing
often in Sphagnum moss.
Woodwardia Virginia. grows here in
abundance, particularly where the soil
S not occupied by the Royal Fern.
It spreads by long underground rum
ners. One of my particular favorites
is the Saw Fern (Blechnum serrula-
tum), which is here one of the most
conspicuous and attractive members
OF the whole family. Its upright, CLOS
sy, often brownish green, rigid pinnate
,ronds are pictures Of elegance, attain
.ng a height OF about three feet 1t
looks particularly charming when
grown near the Cinnamon Fern, the
contrast OF the two being "a very strik-
,ng one.
Another characteristic species is
found in these ravines in great abun-
1ance-the Net-veined Chain Fern,
Lorinseria areolata (Woodwardia an
eustlfolia). 1t grows almost always in
Sphagnum moss, close to the water
Ii forms very fine light-green, glossy
.ronds In great abundance, and is
easily distinguished from all other
Ferns by it's curiously shaped fronds,
and the very tall fertile fronds with
narrow divisions Taking sterile and
fertile fronds together, it cannot be
confused with any other species. 1t
IS, however, not confined to the ravines
and bitches, but is generally seen in
greater abundance in the cypress
swamps and bayheads. With the
Osmunda and Dryopteris and some Of
the Arpleniums it adds much in imbu-
ing these localities with pleasing
character. In such places the ligneous
vegetation consists chiefly OF Sweet
Bays (Magnolia glauca), Loblol1y Bays
(Gordonia Lasianthus), Bald Cypress
Taxodium distichum), Andromedas
and tangled masses of Smilax (Smilax
Walteri), lighting up the bushes over
which it scrambles, by it's exuberance
OF shining red berries. Still among
the dense underground numbers Of
smaller plants, such as Sarracenias,
Orontiums, ,Peltandras, strong grow
ing grasses and sedges manage to make
a fair living. Among these plants, all
struggling for life and room,
our little Chain-Fern is found in con-
siderable numbers. 1t does apparently
not prefer, however, such a struggle
for life, for here in Our ravine it has
the full benefit of open space and
plenty Of room and light, and it is
wonderful how much more rich and
vigorous it's growth appears in the
hick and soft carpet Of Sphagnum
moss. The barren fronds, growing
twelve to eighteen inches high, appear
irst, and in midsummer Or earlier, the
I much taller and narrower fertile fronds
follow In the barren fronds the pin
nae are much closer together, and the
rich brown color Of the mid-rib
(stlpe), which is wholly wanting in the
barren fronds, characterizes the fertile
and, with its chains of fruit dots on the
reverse side. 1t grows we'll in the
garden in moist shady places, and is
even adapted for Fern baskets.
Almost all these Ferns grow album

Successfully in New York.
From the New York sun.
Commissioner Bensel, OF the street,
clea=A@5 department, held an exhibit
ton on the plaza recently with Dep-l
.uty Bill Edwards as chief marshal.
IT was the first trial Of the proposed
method OF cleaning the streets by wa
ter.
About Q o'clock some forty white
wings solemnly took up a position on the
plaza Shortly afterward Deputy Com
missioner Edwards footed up In an au-
tomobile n got things In readiness.
Guests of the Hotel Savoy and the
New Netherlands and members Of the
Metropolitan club gathered on the ball
comics to see what was coming of.
Deputy Edwards led the way to a
dark corner of the park, where a
queer locking machine vas drawn up.
1t was cast iron water wagon. but
at first sight II looks 1 one Of the
great lakes whalebacks. The wagon.
Is the invention of Harry s. Dewey,
president Of the Atlantic Street Flush
ing company.
According to Mr.. Edwards the
wagon exhibited weighed $500 pounds
and had a water capacity Of ESQ gall
Ions. In the ron Is an air tank which
has a pressure of twenty-five pounds
and the air pressure forces the wa
ter out at the rear in two strong
streams which spread fan like for a
distance of ten feet on each side. Mr..
Dewey asserts that the wagon will dc
away with the necessity for hand labor
In cleaning the streets.
After the wagon and its workings
had been fully explained to the news
paper men Deputy Commissioners Ed
wards pol an extra hitch on his
trousers and led the way out into the
plaza. Commissions BenseI q not
yet arrived so 1t was determined TO
hold a rehearsal.
First several horse were
sent on a trot over the asphalted
plaza in an imposing array. Then the
water wagon got busy.
With a loud swish the water poured
from one of the fiushers in the rear
and Ii was feared that Deputy Ed
wards had been swept away, but both
he and the Sherman statue were in
tact. After the wagon had gone up
n down the plaza 1t was shown that
1t had cleaned away the surface dirt
neatly and piled 1T up on each side
of the plaza. Then the white wings

Commissioner fsensel arrived after

I'VE are merely making an expert

find some method of cleaning the
streets more thoroughly and with the
use of mechanical apparatus rather
than by hand. If this flushing wagon
proves q success the city could save
many other things. After the traffic
of the day wal finished, fifty or sixty
OF these wagons could be sent out
