editor freely confesses his con-

to bring about a vigorous healthy
growth and to render the trees resi5-
tant to further attacks OF the fungus.
When to Prune Trees.
Winter pruning for WitheTtip should
be done between the middle Of De
cember and the middle of January.
1t is important not to delay the work
beyond this date. Do not prune while
the new growth is putting out, for
this is almost sure to result in injury
rather than benefit. Begin the work
at once, and do not consider the looks
of the trees, but take out everything
that shows the presence Of the dis
ease.
The beneficial results already OBJ
tanned on hundreds of acres of groves
treated in this way, under the direc-
ton OF experiment station workers,

treatment.

WHEN WILL THE
FARMER LEARNT

The Farmers Union News feels sad
when it locks about over this coun-
try and sees so many farmers who
are being caused to suffer as a result
OF their misguided acts in the spring
The cotton buyer, the sly old
COON" made the farmer believe that
ten and eleven cents was a big price
for cotton. Then they proceeded to
buy it from him for future delivery
at that price. The farmer did not
stop to consider that if the merchant
could afford to pay ten and eleven
cents for cotton to be paid for in the
fall, that he, the farmer, could afford
to wait until fall to make contracts
for sale.
Many, many, are the families in the
cotton district who will have to 20
in want during the next twelve
months as a result of this misguided
piece of business. Many a child will
go without sufficient clothes, without

PRUNING FOR WITHERTIP.

Withertip is one of the worst fun
gus diseases of citrus trees in FlO--
ida. In the winter season, diseased
trees may be distinguished by the vel
lowing and falling of their leaves, the
dropping of their fruit, and the dying
OF their twigs and branches. A citrus
tree affected with withertip will begin
to lose its inside leaves. The outer
leaves then turn yellow and fall, leav-
ing many bare and disCOlOred
branches. The fruit also drops, with
or without spOtung.
How to Prune Trees.
The important thing in pruning is
to cut out enough of the wood, in or
der to get rid. not only of the bare
branches, but also of all the branches
that show even a slight sign of the
disease. In severe cases of whittier
tip, there are seen, in addition 20
bare branches, many limbs on which
the yellowish leaves are about to fall.
Close examination will show that the
disease is slowly making its way back
and poisoning these limbs. This
poisoning may start from an infection
at the tip, or from an infection on
side branch lower down, from
which the poisonous effect has spread
to the main Iirab. Sometimes only
one side OF a tree, or only one branch.
is severely affected; while the re-
naming part of the tree is unjnjured.
Whatever may be the conditions, it Is
important to get rid Of these poison
ed limbs. All limbs that show the
beginning of the disease must be
taken out. Drastic measures must be
employed, and many bearing limbs
may have to he sacrificed To prune

HOW FARMERS CAN

from New York state who cultivates
farm in that state in the summer
and then comes to Florida in the win

crops of vegetables on her Florida
farm, returning North in time to re-

NUDE MAN On
PALAFOX DOCK
STRANGE ACTIONS OF WHITE
PERSON WHO Is NOW THOUGHT
TO HAVE FALLEN INTO WATER
AND TO HAVE DROWNED.

Parties on tugbOats which passed
the south line of Palafox wharf yes
terday reported that they had noticed
a white man near the end of the wharf
in almost naked condition, and it
was the belief that he has fallen into
the bay and been drowned. No report
of the strange actions OF the man had
been received at the police station.
Officials aboard the revenue cutter
PenrOSe were the first to make report
of the matter. In talking over the
mans actions, they asserted that they
had noticed him reclining at full
length on the wharf, and he appeared
to have been drinking or very sick.
A sailor said yesterday that he had
also seen the man and thought he was
sick. When asked if he wanted a doc
tor. the sailor said to a Journal repre-
sentative yesterday, the man gave
no reply, and appeared to have been
getting over the results Of a spree.
The same sailor, who was aboard a
vessel at the wharf and whose duties
kept him on deck most of the day,
said he did not remember seeing the
man coming toward the city, which
gives strength to the opinion that the
man had fallen overheard. No report
of any such accident was heard of on
the wharf late yesterday.
