paper on "Orange Rot, or the Causes
of Fruit Decaying in Transit and the
Means Of Prevention" which, with
the discussion it is likely to bring out,
will be worth to shippers of fruit, es-
peclally of oranges, whole year s
subscription to the Agriculturist even
if they did not get another suggestion
of value from it's columns.
Then Mr.. A. J. Mitchell, the eff
cient director of the Weather Blu
reau in this city, contributes a paper
on "Cold Waves, Their Origin and
Influence" which will run through
two or three numbers Mr.. Mitchell
is a fluent writer and as his topic is
one Of special concern to the Agri-
culturist family at this season, it can
not fail to be of interest.
Mr.. Berlin H. Wright also favors
us with an entertaining description
of "The Heavens for February" In
brief note accompanying his manu-
script Mr.. Wright says: 1.-THE heav-
ems for February are SO grand that
[ could not refrain from writing about
Them" and while all may not be able
to fully appreciate the grandeur of
the heavens as does the astronomer,
such description as Mr.. Wright
gives is interesting to every reader.
Another feature that we hope will
prove acceptable and helpful is a
weekly New York Market Letter,
which has been arranged for regu-
larly, and which will be accompanied
by brief review of the local markets
each week
In addition to these we want num-
Der of short articles on a variety
of topics practical helps-and again
appeal to Our readers generally to lend
a helping hand and contribute some
thing from their own experiences
from time to time.

Special Notice to Delinquent Sub
ScriberS.

Before another number of the Agri-
culturist is issued we hope to have
permit from the Postoflce Depart
ment granting a transfer of the mail
ing privilege, and that beginning with
next week the paper will be mailed
from Jacksonville instead of DeLand.
In the meantime we shall have our
subscription list revised and all sub
scribers will be stricken off who are
not paid in advance.
We shall greatly regret to lose even
one single member of the Agricul-
turist family, but feel that we have
made every reasonable effort to pre-
vent it. We have reduced the price
of the paper to half what it has al
ways been; we have included with it
subscriptions to other papers equal III
value at their regular rates to more
than we have left, and have carried
you for month in order that all
might have ample opportunity to re-

at lault if any are lost. AS we scarce
ly hoped to get even bare cost for
the paper this year we cannot afford to
send it to any who have not paid in
advance. Therefore, while we think
it will be mutual loss to have a Sill
gle subscriber cut off we are compell-
ed to do it. Nearly every respecta-
bic publication IN the county is now
md there is no reason why the Agri-
culturist should be an exception.
In this connection we offer apollo
gies to our paid-up readers for taking
up this space for this purpose, but
it will not occur again, as VIC will have
no delinquent subscribers to appeal to
in the future.

Photographs Wanted.

The Agriculturist wants photo
graphs from which to make illustra-
tons for publication, such as attrac-
tive homes and surroundings, farm
scenes, groves, growing crops, bunch
es Of fine cattle, hogs or other ami
mails, of any object of natural or his
torical interest, and we trust our read
ers will send us large number of
such pictures. Please write your name
and address on the back of photo
graph, that it may be returned to you
if desired, and accompany it with a
short description when convenient to
do so.
1t it's not necessary that a photo
graph be mounted-an unmounted
print will do just as well-but it is
desirable to have the lines of the pic
ture as clear and sharp as possible
We shall greatly appreciate a liberal
response to this request. Or if any
reader has an engraving of this char
acter suitable for Our columns we will
be glad to have the loan of it and
will return same in good order

The Christmas Freeze.

By mistake part of Our report on
the cold snap was left out After
writing the part which was printed,
we visited a grove in this neighbour
hood and saw such convincing evil
dence of the value of water protection,
that we wrote a postscript, which did
not get in. We will rewrite part
of it to show the strange freaks Of the
cold. At Our home government
se1f-registering thermometer showed
that it had been down to 70 during
the night of December 26-27. Til some
groves at this place most of the trees
will lose all their leaves and the or
anges were frozen Yet in the same
groves the trees nearest to the bank
of the river still hold their leaves and
the fruit is sound. In one grove we
saw trees that were shedding part of
their leaves, yet the next trees on

The Jamestown Exposition.

In another column will be found an
address to the people of Florida, is
sued by the Jamestown Exposition
Commission. This is one of the i'm
portant matters now before the peo-
pie of Florida, although it is being
brought into prominence at rather
late hour to accomplish the best re-
suits. A creditable exhibit of our
resources would be of incalculable
benefit, and every enterprising citl-
zen who has the States development
at heart should do all that he is able
to help the cause along, and should
do it promptly The Agriculturist is
not in full accord with all the plans
formulated by the Commission, never
the1ess we will cooperate in every
way possible.
The commission has several unfor-
tunate conditions to contend with
which make their task exceedingly diff
6cult
First among these, and the most
serious, is the date at which the ex-
position is to be held Florida is dis
tinctively an agricultural State, and
her pre-eminence lies in her ability to
grow crops that cannot be produced
in other States or at a season of the
year when they cannot be so prohta-
bly, grown elsewhere, therefore the
period covered by the exposition puts
the State at a great disadvantage in
this respect It is a matter of surprise
as we'll as regret that Southern pro-
ject should not have been planned
more directly in the interest of the
South, for while the date is particu-
larly unfavorab1e to Florida it also
affects, though in a lesser degree, otn-
er of the Southern States. But this
should not prevent us from making
a good display of other products.
Another matter of regret is that the

The Agriculturist for February g..

Among the special features which
the Agriculturist for next week will
contain will be the first of series
of articles on "Soils, Their Physical
Nature and Chemical Composition, %
by DR.. A. T. Gunner. While these
articles will be of a semi-scientiiic
character they will be written in plain,
every day English, and we are sure
will prove both profitable and inter-
esting.
Mr.. w. A. Whitcomb will have a

last Legislature did not take hold oil
it with more enthusiasm and make
an appropriation commensurate with
the Importance and benefits that such
opportunities afford. This, however
may be remedied to some extent by
the coming Legislature if the people
show an unmistakable desire that il
should do so.
Still another unfortunate condition
that confronts the commission is an
apparent conflict of interests that
should not be manifest, for it is not
real There are at least two other
important propositions to be present
ed to the Legislature which meets
next April, and the advocates of each,
although friendly to all, seem to fear
that favorable consideration of any
one will jeopardize the success OF
the others, and this is a matter of re-
greet.
The Agriculturist fully appreciates
the necessity for good roads and for
a well-equipped immigration bureau,
as we'll, and will labor in season and
out of season to secure them, but if
for any reason either of these PROPOSE
tons should fail before the coming
Legislature, while it would be great
misfortune, it's agitation could be con-
tinued and it would be presented to
future sessions Of that body. Not
so, however, of the jamestown Expo
sition With that it is "now or new
err"
But there is still more involved in
the question: Failure on the part OF
Florida to be represented at James
town means not only lost opportun-
ity to advertise the State effectively
but it will react most seriously on
the Isthmian Exposition which is be-
ing planned for.
The State fair of the last two years
demonstrated not only the wisdom
of the last Legislature in appropria-
ting money for that purpose, but al
so the far-reaching benefits that Flor
ida may derive from such an exposi-
ton, not only by comparing her pro-
ducts and possibilities with those Of
her sister States but also by showing
to Our own people what may be &C
complished by intelligent effort.
Notwithstanding the unfavorable
conditions to which we have called at
tention and that the time is now short,
if the enterprising people of the State
will generously and enthusiastically
respond to the appeal of the commits
sion it is still possible to place be-
fore the world an exhibit that F'ori-
dams will not be ashamed Of, even
though we are handicapped by the
date at which the exposition is to
be held But further delay will make
such thing impossible, hence what
is done must be done quickly.
