PRUNING THE ORANGE TREE
Method That Is Practiced in California But Not Gener
ally Followed in Florida.
By T. r. Wallace.

of fruit is effected. But this is still fur
ther augmented by the crop grown inside.
This inside crop is as well very superior
fruit for packing, as it is protected from
the wind, and as we'll there is always a
sufficient thin foliage swinging over the
inside rim of the cup to protect from sun
burn.
In such pruning only the saw is
required, and care must be exercised to
cut all limbs fully back to the eye, and
no limb should be nipped or cut on any
part of it's length or between buds, as
in such case it will either die back or
sprout like broom. This method of
pruning is not expensive, and can be
done very quickly by anyone who can
handle saw properly. It cannot be
done periodically every few years, but
each year the trees should be gone over.
The first year it will be found that but
one, two or three limbs can be proftably
and safely removed.
The next year another limb or two can
be removed, until the proper inside shape
and healthy fruiting wood is produced.
The increase both in quantity and quail
ity of the crop will more than offset the
seeming loss of crop suggested by re-
moving the central limbs reaching up
into the top.

Fruit Growing in Jamaica.

Some interesting details in regard to
what is evidently a prosperous fruit
growing concern in Jamaica were lately
published in the Jamaica Times. The
property referred to is the Hartlands
plantation, consisting of some $500 acres
of rich, level, clayey land, which is un
der irrigation. Pines and bananas were
grown for time on part of the planta-
tion, but neither of these crops gave sat
isfactory returns, and were abandoned.
Ordinary pen work is carried out on a
considerable scale and large numbers of
cattle are reared. Citrus fruit cultiva-
tion was started some six or seven years
ago, however, and promises to be very
profitable undertaking. About l20 acres
have been planted with oranges, and IS
acres with grapefruit. The fruit trees
are planted % yards apart and there
are now over $4,000 trees on the property.
Tenches have been dug across the beds
by means of which the orange trees are
irrigated when water is required. The
fruit gathering season begins in Septem-
Der, and there is always a ready market
for the grapefruit. During the year
1908, there were exported from the
plantation 1000 boxes of oranges, and
$4,000 boxes of grapefruit.

Keep a Few Sheep.

Sheep produce the richest manure of all
domestic animals, and they distribute it
in such way that it does the most good
to pastures and fields. The droppings of
horses and cattle do considerable damage
to grass. The feed sheep pick up is just
like finding money. No man would pass
piece of money on the ground and not
pick it up. Why not get an animal that
will pick up more money in month than
YOU will ever find in lifetime?
The Florida agriculturist., 1909-03-01

Castilloa rubber trees appear to do well
in Cuba, although their value does not
seem to be recognized by many planters
on whose estates the young trees grow
wild. The chief of the Botanical De-
partment at the Agricultural Experiment
Station has recommended that Castilloa
trees be grown as shade for tobacco
plants in place of many worthless trees
that are now used for this purpose.
The Florida agriculturist., 1909-03-01


which receives meager attention by the
grower, and yet it is one of the i'm
portant details. It is usually discussed
in a very general way and with sort
of tacit acceptance of the theory that
evergreen trees do not need pruning ex-
cept to remove accumulatiOns of dead
wood The writer's study of the subject
has been through direct experiment and
in closely observing the experiments OF
others, and the object of the study is to
find what methods of culture must 60
hand in hand with the use of fertilizers
to obtain the most desired results with
reasonable certainty. The direct issues
in mind were quantity and quality of
fruit, and the striking fact that, in the
attempt to produce quantity by direct
fertilizing, an abundance of fruit wood
was evolved which went dead instead of
producing fruit. This dead wood being
invariably found inside the tree, the in
vestigations naturally led to the study
of that part.
Presuming that in suitable soil and
climate we have an orange orchard on
healthy root, and that the trees are
kept healthy by proper soil fertiliza-
tion (which simply means correct farm
ing,) and we are feeding the trees with
useful fertilizers to insure steady and
desirable fruiting, can we by pruning en-
hance the value of our crops? I answer
that we can.
The inclination of the citrus trees after
a few years is to grown top, and the top
usually forms like a pyramid over the
center of the tree, shutting out the light
and air from the center or inside of the
tree. This deprives the tree of consid-
erable bearing surface inside and the
crop is borne mostly on the outside. AS
this becomes habitual, even though we
fertilize ever so cleverly to produce fruit
wood, the interior fruit wood dies from
simple inanition, and practically the
bearing of inside fruit stops. This can
not be corrected by simply cleaning out
the interior of the tree nor by thinning
out fruit wood from the side. The let
ting in of light and air through the sides
of the tree is of no important value, and
indeed the denser foliage of the sides
the better protection the outside fruit
changes.
Practically the pruning of the Or
ange tree consists in removing the branch
reaching up and enclosing the center-top
and the opening out of the center SO
that the air and light can freely descend
upon and into the cup-top thus pro-
duced. This permits the tree to prepare
and nourish an inside rim or surface of
fruiting wood, and to bear fruit on it.
Practically that provides two fruiting
surfaces, an outside and inside The tax
ing out of the top allows more strength
to concentrate in the lower sides and
they become rich and strong to the
ground, so that they not only produce
more fruit, but afford their crop more
protection by dense side foliage Thus
an increase in both quantity and quality

plants, applying in the drill 400 pounds

plants, applying in the drill 400 pounds
per acre of fertilizer, then covering, re-
peating the application further away
from the plant each time. The latest
applications should be made in the mid
dies and lightly raked in. AS a final,
finishing, stimulating dose, $50 pounds
to the acre cast in the middles. Some
apply four to five tons of commercial fer
by good authorities as excessive and
wasteful.
In the West bleaching is accomplished
by drawing the dirt about the stalks.
This mode if practiced here, cause dam
age from rust. Florida celery is bleached
with boards. The tXact time for bleach
ing is determined by the size of the
plants, generally about ninety days from
time of setting. And now the wisdom of
asserting the plants in two sizes is ap-
parent, as the boards may be used for
bleaching alternate rows of the different
size plants, economizing with half the
expense that would otherwise be in
Cured.
When sufficiently bleached the celery
is harvested, taken to the packing tables,
assorted as to size, and neatly packed
into crates of three, four, and five dozen.
Some small shi ipments are made by ex-
press, but, the main crop is forwarded
in iced freight cars. The journey only
adds to the beauty and crispness, and
the celery reaches the market in fine con-
dition.
Where Celery May Be Grown.
Mary experiments have been made,
with varying success, to grown celery at
different points in the State. Extensive
preparations are now under way in Du-
val county, in this line of experiment.
The growers at Sanford, where sue
cess is now almost universal, claim that
the climatic conditions there, together
with soil, artesian we'll sub irrigation,
and thorough tile drainage, give them
the pre- -eminence in successful celery
growing The fact is cited that one of
their most successful growers, made a
dismal failure trying to grow celery on
the opposite side of Lake Monroe.
They view with complacence all expert
mental attempts to wrest from them the
title of ''the Celery City,
Can Celery Growing Be Overdone?
The shipments of celery from Sanford
increased from LOO crates in 1899 to
l9O,25O in 1908. The present crop for
1909 is estimated at 600 cars. There is
no apparent danger of OVERRIDING this
business. An expanding market and un-
appropriated seasons encourage the be-
lief that many times the present acreage
will not glut the markets. Florida eel
cry yields from $1,000 to $4,000 an acre.
California is satisfied with a net profit
of $3.50 an acre. Some of their growers
have discarded celery and substituted
hops.

Summer In Greenland.

Among the interesting observa-

Greenland expedition is one on the
sudden oncoming of summer in that
land of ice and fiords. The change
is described as sudden. Gradually
the temperature of the snow had
risen to the freezing point, and then
IN one day it all melted. "The riv-
crs were rushing along, flowers were
budding forth, and in the air the
butterflies were fluttering." The
birds came nearly all on the same
day, and most of them even at the
same hour. One day there were
only the ordinary ptarmigan and
the raven; the next there were the
sanderling, the ring plover, the
goose, the elder duck and many
