Maj. Dockery's Letter.
Maitland, Florida, Jan. q, 1908

Maitland, Florida, Jan. 27, 1908.
Editor Times-Promoter:
You made me say, "the oranges
were placed in hopper of a corn or
cider MILL" meant to say hopper
like that of corn or cider mill. OF
course every reader knows that an
orange can't 60 out of the spout
where corn or wheat is intended to
go between the stones.
The people are busy yet with their
fruit and groves. The price has gone
down and long faces are in evidence.
The fruit of the grove in which I am
stopping, sold early in November at
$3.50 per box on the tree. Now the
same fruit is selling at 70 cents and a
dollar. California is sending fifty car
loads a day to New York and the
price not more than two dollars box.
Do you know, there are as many
kinds of oranges as there are of APP
pies. We have growing here, the
native Florida orange buded on the
wild stock, the Tangerine or kid glove
q small fruit with thin, soft peel
like kid skin. Many people prefer
it to any other but it is sour and
don't like it. Then we have the Man
derin- somewhat like the Tangerine-
and other imported kinds. But the
native is the best / think: or at least

The statutory prohibition bill-ol
more correctly speaking bills-is
hanging fire in the joint committee
on temperance. The bone of con-
tention is when to put the saloons
out of business. December 31st was
the date first agreed upon by the
committee for the saloons to cease
business, and all the local optionists
and saloon men agreed to support the
bill to go into effect on that date.
Now comes the various temperance
unions and the more pronounced
statutory prohibition people, who say
that the compromise should never
have been made and that the law
should take effect Juue 1st. Many
legislators believe this date to be too
early, hence the deadlock.
Commenting upon the situation the
following view of the matter is taken
to be the Port Gibson Reveille:
"The Reveille's views on prohibi-
tion are well known, therefore it can
not be miscontrued on the subject
when it endorses the sentiments ex-
pressed by the Democrat. We want
the kind of a victory that wins the
respect of the vanquished one that
can look back upon a perfectly clean
record; one that has respected the
rights of the foe.
mo law should be passed which
will ignore the legal rights of the
saloon men, therefore statutory pro-
hibition should not go into effect
until all licenses which were issued
upon the expiration of others have
expired. Where a saloon keeper has
conformed to the requirements of ex-
isting laws, it would be unjust to
take from him the rights that even
iniquitous laws had given him."

it is good enough for me.

it is good enough for me.
We have the grape rruit in perfec-
ton too, and why it is called grape
fruit, don't know. 1t is of the
orange or citron family and would
be mistaken for mammoth oranges by
one not accustomed to seeing it. The
tree and leaf is like the orange, but
the fruit is enormous, frequently
weighing three pounds, and tree
loaded with these attracts attention.
A packer here tald me that he pack
ed last year near Tampa, the fruit of
one tree that filled fifty boxes and
sold for five dollars per box, or $3.50
for the tree. The people here give
the man character for the truth and
veracity. I don't know about it, but
/ do know from actual sight, that the
trees bear enormously. 1t has little
of the genuine taste, but eat half of
one every morning for breakfast and
prefer it to an orange. 1t sells in the
market for at least double the price
of oranges. Many thousands of trees
are being planted.
While the fruit is being sold, the
owners of groves are busy preparing
for next crop, pruning, thinning, fer
tilizing and plowing. They have had
rain this winter and they expect
good crop this year besides oranges,
lemons and grape frnit. In this mis-
erably poor country, there are some
pineries (pine apples.) One man has
three acres shielded in. There is
plank wall eight feet high and over
the whole top is covering of Stats
an inch apart. He thinks there are
27OO apples almost ready for the mar
ket. 1t is very tender fruit and if
exposed to one night, such as we had
last Thursday, the crop would be lost.
I saw forty five acres one hundred
miles south of here protected like this
mans three acres, that / was told
brought $4,000 for the apples. But it
is an expensive crop to make and
there is more money lost than made
in it's growing.
There is some gardening here in the
low places and protitably, too. All
Of the vegetables, especially cabbage
and celery are shipped in large guam
titles. The low places are irrigated
oy board wells from forty to, sixty
,eet, and with liberal manuring, yield
heavy crops. Strawberries never sell
,or less than 40 cents per quart, and
NY frind, William Dolehite, would
nave to take an extra wagon to bring
lis money home if he were here.
We have a good COW and have
olenty milk and butter, but others
lave canned milk and butter from
lbroad or do without. AS for hogs,
hey are the veriest long snouts you
,ver saw. I have not seen a respec-
able hog in all Florida. But the fish
