HAD THE CEREMONY REPEATED
VIRGINIA COUPLE NOT POSTED
ON DISTRICT LAWS.
Married by Clergyman Not Named
in the License, Consequently
Action Was Invalid.

The ignorance OF cab driver put Phil
lip l.. Eanes and Gertrude o. Webster in
an unpleasant predic ament and forced
them TO return to Washington from their
home at Mosleys Junction. Va. yesterday
TO have their marriage ceremony repeated
When the first license was issued TO the
young people October 10 the Rev. J. j.
Muir was named as the officiating clergy
man. but because the cab driver could
not find Rev. Muir's residence the couple
Were com. elled to seek another clergy
man. and were taken to the Central Union
Mission. where Rev. J. NJ. leila performed
the ceremony. ignorant that the law of
the District provides that only registered
clergymen authorized by an order OF the
court can legally perform "A marriage. Ee-
sides that, license Is valid only before
the clergyman named In IT,
Therefore. when Mr. and Mrs. Eancs
returned TO their Virginia home they con
sidered themselves married.
But Clerk Young discovered the discrep-
ancies IN the returns made on the Ii
cense and notified the couple that their
marriage could not be legalized without
a repetition of the ceremony
So when the official letter reached them
Wednesday they came at once TO Wash
ington and the second marriage was per
formed by Rev. J. e. Mclaughlin yes
terday afternoon. Afterward the couple
returned to their home at Mosleys juno
ton.

are but few, if any, better or more
wholesome fruit known to man, and
yet it is not true fruit at all.
The tree is a native of Western
Asia, spreading from there to Europe
and the New World. The fruit is
simply the flower, encased in f1eshy
receptacle, the inside containing the
seed and bloom.
There are many varieties, and, like
the apple, some are good and some not
SC good. The fruit, as it is called,
is one of the most healthful known to
man, and can be eaten out of hand,
dried or preserved Besides, our
Mother Eve is credited with using the
leaves to make the first dress ever
worn by mankind.
Be that as it may, it should be far
more generally cultivated in the South
than it is. Being much more hardy
than the orange, it can be grown over
a much wider range of latitude than
any of the citrus fruits.
The climate Of Florida does not
seem adapted to drying the fruit for
commercial purposes, as they do in
California, though I have dried the
fruit quite successfully for home USE
But it can be preserved and canned
both for home use and for market
[ don't know Of any reason why the
fig should not be grown in Florida
successfully and pro6tab1y for canning
and preserving purposes.
It is a fruit that is too much neglect
ed even for home use. Not one home
III a dozen in Florida has any at all,
and not one in hundred has enough
for home use. Oh, ye of the fowery
state, how much have you lost of the
enjoyment Of life by not giving more
heed to this health-giving fruit. You
who have never eaten the luscious
White Adriatic fig out of hand,
fresh from the tree, not to mention
liberal dish Of them with sugar and
cream, are falling far short Of the
great privilege Florida holds out to
all her people, be they ever so humble.
So many have told me they cannot
get them to grow, and | have tried so
hard too, and when I come to look at
them, I find probably, but one little
tree set out in some obscure corner,
with the soil tramped hard all around
it. No wonder it don't gro wv; nothing
else would thrive under the same
treatment.
There are some kinds Of figs that
seem to grow and yield fr] bit in time,
under almost any kind of treatment,
while other kinds require some care.
Those that will thrive TN der almost
any kind of conditions are the Brown
Turkey, and Celestial, or Sugar Figs.
Both are small, but rich in sugar,
easy to dry or preserve, and fine to
eat out of hand. Also the white Mar
seilles and the Common Fig, found
growing in the fatwoods, for which [
don't know any especial m ame-some-
what like the old woman'$ dog, who,
when asked of what breed he was, re-
piled, "Not of any particular breed,
just dog" And it's the same OF
this fig, it is of no particu ular variety
or breed, just fig. It is good to
cook and can, but I never liked it to
eat raw. It and the Mafseilles look
much alike, being of a greenish-yeI-
low color, both of near tn Z same size,
but the Marseilles is fa1 and away
the best fig. Now any Of these four
will give you figs with all kinds of
neglect, but they will Civ you more
and far better fruit with care.
The Florida agriculturist., 1908-03-01
too late and about two feet in the drill,
I thought we'll of it, but have not been
able to get seed for further trial.
Industry of Bees.

When you eat a spoonful of honey
you have very little notion as to the
amount of work and travel necessary
to produce it. To make one pound of
clover honey, bees must deprive 62-
600 clover blossoms of their nectar,
and to do this requires 2,75o,ooo visits
to the blossoms by the bees.
In other words, one bee, to collect
enough nectar to make one pound OF
honey, must go from hive to flower and
back 2,75o,ooo times. Then, when you
think how far these bees sometimes
fly in search of these clover fields, Oft
ener than not one or two miles from
the hive, you will begin to get small
idea of the number of miles one of the
industrious little creatures must travel
in order that you may have the pound
of honey that gives them so much trou-
bic.
1t may also help you to understand
why the bee is unamiable enough to
sting you if you get in it's way. When
one has to work so hard to accom-
p1ish so little, it is quite irritating to
be interfered with.

Five Hundred Dollars Per Acre.
By w. P. Neeld.

One man in this county made eleven
hundred dollars in one year on one
acre.
1t is our intention to try this scheme
We have the land in Irish potatoes now
We fertilized these with compost sup
plemented with commercial fertilizer
at the rate of about one pound to ten
feet. We ought to make $50 bushels
to the acre, worth, say $500. We will
plant corn between these and expect
to sell $1,000 worth of Milton corn,
that's $3.50. We will pull or dig out
this corn, and plant sweet potatoes,
we expect to make 800 bushels of these,
worth $3.50. That's $5oo.oo! The corn
stalks we pile in even rows between
the potato beds so they will decom-
pose by time the potatoes are made.
| hen In November, we start in on cab
bage, onions and beets, and expect to
do as we'll next year. This is intensive
culture. We have forty acres of the
extensive, where We make corn, cow
peas, velvet beans and beggarweed for
hay. Where we pasture the field we
get the droppings for fertilizer; other
wise we turn this vegetation under in
November; by March it is all decom-
posed and the land is made fertile by,
not only this matter, but by reason that
the burrows admit the air to the land.
This carries with it the elements of car
bon1c gas and nitrogen. The former
is dlssolvent, while the latter is de-
nominated the master spirit of ma
nures. Land treated in this way, if it
contains any fertile elements, will get
better indefinitely.
Some people advocate planting oats
in every other, or third furrow, where
this land is broken as above, ana if
little fertilizer is put in the furrow it
would seem to be good scheme We
tried this last year, but that unprecedent-
ed drought put us out SO that we are
not prepared now to advocate it. An
other year we will try it. This season
we cut the hay, turned the land, har-
rowed it, .1ayed off rows eighteen inches,
tert1l1zed, and put in oats, which at this
time look very good, and will c&ne
off in time to plant corn We are salts.
he'd we can make more horse feeo to
the acre IN oats than two or three
acres in corn. But as I often said be-
tore, we like to make corn, it comes so
quick and is SO fine to eat ourselves,
and the COWS like it in the milk state.
and the horses eat it cob and all! We
will shell and put it in a big bin to
keep rats, flying squirrels, and weevils
out of it. In this way we can treat it
with bysulphide of carbon. We prefer
yellow variety to the white. The
wonderful varieties you "read about
IN the seed catalogues, do not pan out
with u.s. Life is too short to try them
all; but a neighbor got hold of a North
ern variety which was said to make In
six weeks, it grew about four feet high
and each stalk had one to two plump
little ears, considering it was planted

FIG CULTURE IN FLORIDA.
Plea For More General Interest in this Luscious and
Wholesome Fruit.
By B. M. Hampton.

If you are going to give the figs a
decent show, as you would your orange
tree, then pick out such varieties as
the White Adriatic, Brunswick, Black
Ischia, Blue Geneva, and last, but not
least, the White Marseil1es. These are
all fine fruit and good bearers with
some care But if you want a fig that
fills the bill for fancy, both in looks
and in quality, give me the White
Adriatlc, large, greenlsh fruit on
outside, but a most beautiful pink in
side; and luscious, doesn't near ex-
press it's quality. I have known this
fruit to cure on the tree. 1t is as
sweet as a preserve, but a pleasant
sweet, one that everybody likes, and
is firm for drying, canning or preserv-
ing. But it is SO good to eat out Of
hand that it hardly ever gets to the
can or jar. Don't plant it, however,
unless you are going to give it care
and fertilizer
The fig is a gross feeder, and loves
rich, moist soil-prefers the ham
mock, but will grow on almost any
good, we1l-drained soil, or will even
do well on high, sandy land, with
plenty Of water and fertilizer, but you
must remember that it is subject to
rOOt-knot, so don't plant it where you
have been growing cowpeas or any
of the bean family.
Some recommend mulching, but I
am not satisfied in my own mind as
to that When the mulch is left on
the year around, I find the roots come
to the surface and these soon become
full of root-knot on high, sandy land
and then in time of drouth, unless
watered, 1these small rootlets dry out
and die, and the tree is much the
worse for it. Just loose sand mulch,
on high, sandy land seems to give
me the best satisfaction under shall
low cultivation with scuf1e hoe
The fig will grow readily from cut
tlngs. In fact, the cuttings will gener-
ally outgrow the rooted plant With
good care, one can get fine lot Of
fruit the next year from cuttings or
rooted trees. I have had them make
good-sized tree in one season. If
you plant cuttings you must get them
when the leaves are off the tree, al
most any time from November till the
first Of February In setting either
tree or cuttings don't fail to dig a
good, big hole and fill in we'll with
old bones, palmetto roots, or oak
grubs, and lastly mix in two or three
pounds bone meal, depending on the
size Of the hole: It may look useless
to go to all this trouble to plant a
stick, but you must bear in mind that
this stick will make tree If a cut
ting, plant at an angle, and just leave
the upper bud out Of the ground. If
you have plenty of COW manure, your
success is assured in the poorest
sandv land, but if you do not have
this, then use a liberal quantity of some
good commercial fertilizer, containing
plenty Of potash and nitrogen, and if
water is handy, don't forget that.
Much more might be said in favor
Of this most wholesome and nourish-
ing fruit, or flower, as the case may
be, but [ have probably written
enough for this time
Now, let each reader plant a fig,
yes, a dozen, and care for them too
and you will thank the writer of this
