Keeping Powers of Ripe Mangos.

culture to test the effect of immersion

of formalin Ia treatment which is known
to have preservative influence in the
case of many soft skinned fruits) upon
the keeping power of mangos The tests
were made with 260 mangos, belinging to
twentythree different varieties The
fruits were, in every case, gathered two
at a time, one being immersed for ten
minutes in the formalin solution, and
the other, which was not treated with
formalin, being kept under precisely sim
liar conditions for control purposes The
mangos were handled with every care
and examined daily.
Instead of exercising a preservative in
huence on the fruits, it was found in
practically all cases, that the use of for
malin tended to lessen the number of
days which elapsed before the mangos
became unfit for eating purposes. Incl
dentally, the experiment has shown that,
with careful. handling, mangos WILL on
the average, keep for ten Or twelve days
in British Guiana, and it is expected
that in cold storage their keeping pow
ers would be much increased.

OCTOBER IN FLORIDA
Work That May Be Profitably Done During This Month
Especially in the Vegetable Garden.
By w. F. Hawley

A green garden during the entire win
ter is the privilege, and we might say,
the duty of every resident of Florida. In
order to secure this succession of SOW
ings is necessary, and the fact that we
are so near the end of the year will not
prevent our planting nearly all the hardy
or semi-hardy vegetables.
Of course it is apparent to all that
the great diversity of climate in our
State will preclude any cast-iron set of
rules, but we will offer a few suggestions
applicable to the latitude of Jacksonville
and they may be modified to suit the
various localities.
Most of the vegetables grown in guam
titles for market, and especially those
susceptible to any considerable degree of
cold, should have been planted last month
or earlier But it will pay to run the
risk of early frosts and make small
paintings for home use of nearly all the
staple vegetables, and if one is near a
good local market, provide for a small
surplus to sell.
Beans. of the bush varieties, may still
be planted in small patches that are
somewhat protected

Cabbage may still be sown in beds

that mature at different periods. Plants
from previous sowings may also be set
out during the entire month.

planted with safety.
Celery for later crop may still be sown
and plants set out in the open ground
where they are to mature. If you have
neglected to make earlier sowings, you

Looking for Better Cotton.

Next to corn, cotton is n OF the
most important crops to the entire
country. It is valuable and important,
chiefly because it is essentially a
non crop, bringing into the south
ready cash for all classes of business.
The value of the cotton crop from sea-
son to season will run between $780,
OOO, 900 and $500, 900, 900.
There has been no general awaken
ing in the matter of producing high
grade cottonseed such as has occurred
in connection with the production OF
corn. Here and there throughout the
south. however, are individual farmers
who have been for years making a
special effort to improve their types OF
cotton. These men have been quite
successful, and have developed for
their own use and for dissemination
among their neighbors cottonseed
very much superior to that ordinarily
used.
This crop is grown over such a wide
extent OF territory, and the soil and
climatic conditions are so varied, that
many sorts will have to be produced
in order to meet the requirements for
, the highest production.
, The national department OF agricul
ture and the state agricultural depart
, ments and stations are endeavoring tc
q educate the cotton.growers in the mat
ter of improving their types OF cotto1
n by seed selection similar to that out
q lined for the production OF high-grad'
q corn. Cotton is more amenable to i'm
provement than almost any othe
crop. BY a few years of judicious Sc
lection the yield can be not only IN
h creased, but the length, strength an
general quality of the fiber al b
- greatly improved.

For Success with Plants.

When you set out a plant think
about that plant and what you can do
to make it comfortable, and help 1t to
grow off we'll. If you will regard a
plant as you would an individual and
recognize its personality, you will un-
consciously give it more attention,
and the plant will respond according
". 1t will be more likely to live in
the first place and will also grow on
more rapidly. There are many people
who are in close sympathy with ma
ture who already exercise this faculty,
although they may not recognize 1t IN
themselves. They are the successful
ones in horticulture. The condition
of mind of the individual toward his
work has more to do with his success
or failure than anything else.
