STATE ORGANIZER IS
FNTHUSING GROWERS

IA. Reid, of California. who has
been engaged by the citrus fruit grow
ers of Florida to organize the Florida
Citrus Fruit Exchange, has attracted
immense crowds at every point at which
he has appeared, and the growers seem
enthused and are enrolling their names
at every opportunity. ..,
The following excerpts are taken from
an account of his meeting held in Bra
dentown last Friday:
"Mr. Reid said that at one time the
orange growing industry in California
had cotton so low that It appeared as
though it would have to be abandoned.
The banks found they were carrying SO
many mortgages on orange groves and
the property was decreasing in value so
ranidly that the bankers got together,
decided to make no more loans on
grange groves, and began to look around
for some means of helping the growers
to market their crops.
"He told how they got along for one,
two and three years; always learning
something new, trying new methods

THE ART OF MAKING
fine QUAVA JELLY

Undluted guava juice consists of over
80 per cent of water, about five per cent
of sugars, and a small percentage of
pectin and acid. 1t also contains some
substances which give the color and fla
vor to the jelly made from it; Pure
guava jelly usually contains about 20
per cent of water, about rs per cent OF
sugars, and the rest in pectin, acid, etc.
During the boiling of the mixture of
Juice and cane-sugar, the acid acts on
the sugar, and changes part of it into
mvert sugar, so that it forms a syrup;
and if there is enough acid the sugar
will not crystalize out. This strong
syrup causes the pectn to set as a jelly.
The pink color is deepened by longer
boiling, or by more acid.
Suppose large amount of water is
added when cooking the guavas. Now
if equal amounts of this diluted juice
and cane-sugar are taken to make the
iely, there may not be enough pectin,
in which case the jelly will not set pro-
perly, or will be sticky if it does set; or
there may not be enough acid, and the
Jelly will sugar" or there may not be
enough of the guava flavor. If a large
amount of water has been used in cook
ing the fruit, more juice and less sugar
should be taken to make the jelly. If
the guavas have been cooked in a
double boiler without water, equal
amounts of juice and sugar will yield a
good Jelly. 1t was found that the juice
from two pounds of ripe guavas, with
one pound of sugar, yielded less than
one and half pounds of jelly.
When boiling the jelly, the tempera-
ture rises as more and more water evap-
crates. To secure uniform jelly, it is
desirable always to stop at the same
point. This can be done by the use of
glass thermometer. Such an instru-
ment reading 800 deg. F. can be bought
from drug store; or if not procurable
there, can be purchas d for GO cents
from Arthur H. Thomas Company,
Philadelphia. In series of tests it
was found that the best jelly was made
when the boiling was stopped at 235
deg. F. 1t is usually necessary to stop
the boiling for moment, when using
the thermometer, because of the bub-
bling. If the same amount of water is
always used in cooking the ripe guavas,
and the same proportions of juice and
sugar are taken, and If the tempera,
ture which is found to give the be-
Jelly is measured with thermomet .

each year, and each year meeting with
some disastrous set back, enough to dis
courage the ordinary mortal, but little
band of strong minded, able men hung
together and by sticking at it for
several years more finally organized
what is now called the California Fruit
Growers Exchange. The season of
1865 they handled about IL, 900 cars;
the next season about $1,000 cars, and
for the season of 1908 they handled
over II, 500 cars of fruit.
ale said the exchange had saved for
its members nearly half million dol
lars on boxes alone in one year The
box makers ran the price of boxes up
from l3 or ID to q cents. The exchange
bought lot of timberland put in their
own machinery and are now making
boxes. While they do not make all the
boxes used, the mill owners saw that
they had to get back to their old prices
or loose their business. He also said
that the expense of selling the fruit
had been reduced from 10 to per cent;
and that on nails alone over $l2, 900 was
saved this year.
"Mr. Reid told how Mr.. Storey, the
president of the exchange, went from
California to New York to see +. h.
Hartman, the railroad king, and lay
before him the grievances of the grow
ers and a request for lower freight rates;
Mr.. Hartman granted his request and
an order was Immediately issued reduc-
ing the rate. He also explained how
the exchange settles all claims OF all
kinds with the railroads or others.
"rhe California Exchange has agents
in all the principal cities. The fruit is
sent to different mark cts, the agents
inspect it on arrival, and wires the con-
ditiOn of the fruit, reporting the amount
of decay, if any. He also reports the
market price Of fruit prevailing. The
sales manager after getting these re.
ports puts price on the fruit, and II
a buyer is not found in that market the
car is ordered to some other market.
This forwarding can be done without
any extra charge as the rate is the
same to all points east and north, ex-
cepting in New York state, where 81
for switching is charged every time the
car is moved.
"Mr. Reid said the rate from Califor-
MIA to points south of Memphis is high
err. A special rate is tackled on from
Memphis to Atlanta, and an extra spec
ial from Atlanta to Jacksonville, the
southern roads explaining that they put
on this extra rate to protect the Florida
orange grower so he can have the south
ern markets. What protection?
1.-THE reason why growers should stick
together and not sell their fruit was
fully explained. The growers were told
that they must either be sin the ex-
change or out of it," and there must be
no attempt to straddle. All selfshness
must be dropped. A premium must be
placed on honesty and true manliness,
not on dishonesty and graft. The grow.
ers, he said, are 1T all the way through. y

In March, 1894, he bought the grounds
at Palm Beach, on Lake Worth and be-
gan ;he construction of the Royal Pom
ciana hotel. This work was the most
daring project ever undertaken in Flor
ida up to that time. Lumber and all
including food and labor, were
by rail to Cocoa, Eau Galie
or Jensen as the railroad was finished
to these points, then transferred to
steamers and carried to Jupiter, then
reloaded on narrow gauge cars and
transported to Lake Worth at Juno,
and thence RATED or barged down the
lake 10 miles to Palm Beach. The
Royal Poinciana, with 500 guest rooms,
was opened to the public in January,
1894. The Breakers, another great
hotel on the ocean beach, was opened
in 1896 at Palm Beach.
The townsite OF West Palm Beach
was purchased, laid out and opened for
settlement in 1893, having city water
works, paved streets and large public
school building.
The railroad was opened to Palm
Beach in Dade county on March 20, 1894.
In 1894 he became interested in the
East Coast Canal & Transportation
Company, and aided that company to
complete its canals to Miami from In

wards taking lands for his stock. The
