THE CASHEW-NUT.

The Cashew-nut is the produce of a
small tree about I6 feet high, named
Anacardium occidentale, a native of the
East Indies, the West Indies, and South
America, but it is supposed that they
are distinct varieties. The fruit of
this tree is formed by the enlargement
of the footstalk of the flower, and is
about the size of a small orange, with
an agreeable sub-acid favour and
slight astringency. At the end, and on
the outside of this fruit grows a kidney
shaped nut, an inch or more in length
and three-quarters of an inch broad,
consisting of two shells. The outer
skin is of an ash color and very smooth;
under this is another which covers the
kernel and between them there is a
thick, black juice, which is very caustic,
but the kernel, when fresh, has most
delicious taste and abounds with a
sweet, milky 5uice. They are eaten like
Chestnuts, either raw or roasted. These
are known as Cashew-nuts. The Juice
which they contain is extremely acid
and corrosive, producing when applied
to the skin. severe Inflammation, follow
ed by blisters, and it has often proved
very troublesome to those who incau-
tlOuSly put the nuts into their mouths
to break the shell. The broken kernels

FLORIDA AN EASY MARK.

Every day or so a stranger strikes
the Herald office and gives hard luck
story about how he was enticed from
comfortable home in the Balmy North
to come to Florida and pick gold off of
the orange trees, and what an awful
shame it is that the people of Florida
have nothing to hand him when he gets
here" says the Sanford Herald. From
the story one can easily CLEAN that two
thirds of the people who come to Flor
ida prospecting expect to find the State
an easy mark, and all the people easily
gulled into giving them a soft berth,
where they can swing in a hammock
all day and do nothing more than draw
their breath and fat check. There is
no room for this class of people in
Florida, Or any other state, and to one
and all of the people who contem-
plate coming to Florida, Our advice is
to have something in view, or a little
ready cash to tide them over while
they look around for work There is
plenty to do in Florida, but gold is not
growing on the bushes and the new
conner will have to work for a living as
the rest of us do."-Punta Gorda

THE PURPOSES OF CULTIVA-
TION

The purposes of crop cultivation
should constantly be kept in mind Not
only should the planter know the why
but also the how and the nature Of the
corn plant, and other cultivated crops
as we'll TO kill weeds, to prevent the
excessive loss of moisture by evaporation
and to aerate the soil are the purposes.
Weeds hurt Our cultivated crops by
taking moisture and plant food that they
should have, SO should be killed before
they have made any growth if practi-
cable. The dust mulch is effective in
saving moisture and should be main
tained as nearly all the time as practi-
cable. The aeration or letting of air
into the soil is generally accomplished
in killing weeds and in holding the
moisture, but deep cultivation is often
given at the beginning of the season to
admit air and heat and to loosen the
soil for plant foods.

Fertilizer Removed By Orange Crop
BY S. E. COLLISION

seed per acre would remove from the
soil 25.3 pounds of ammonia, 6.8 pounds
of phoSphoric acid, and go pounds of
potash. Nearly all this is in the cotton
seeds, there being only 3.3 pounds of
fertilizing ingredients in the 800 pounds
of lint. 1t is assumed that the body of
the plant is returned to the soil. It is
apparent that the orange crop draws
much more heavily upon the soil than
does the cotton crop.
Analyses of eleven varieties of Florida
oranges show that every ten boxes, of
80 pounds each, contain IL pounds of
ammonia, (equal to 90 pounds of nitro
gen. 4 pounds of phosphoric acid, and
2.32 pounds of potash. With these fig
ures at hand it is easy for us to calcu-
late the amount of ferti1izing constitu-
ents removed per acre in a crop of
any size.

CULTIVATING CITRUS FRUITS.

An account of the treatment to which
citrus trees are subjected in Eastern,
Spain, after they have become estab-
lished, which appears in the Agricultural
Journal Of Victoria should form an in
teresting addition to that information
This treatment has for it's object the
combating of the diseases known as
'collar-rot' and 'ma1-di-gomma', which
have been prevalent in that part of
Spain in the past. It consists in digging
hole underneath the tree, when it is
about three or four years old, and COM
pletely saving off the tap-root The
hole left after the operation is about a
foot in width and depth; it is not filled
in, but rather kept purpose1y open. The
trees do not appear to suffer in any way
through the treatment; on the contrary,
they are reported fine and healthy, and

gently we should know the amounts of
the fertilizing elements which are re-
moved from Gus soils in the fruit we
send away. A further knowledge of
the nature and behavior of our soils is
required to guide us in this respect.
Finally we should make due allowance
Tor the plant food that is lost through
teaching
We find that in an average crop of
800 boxes of 50 pounds each, per acre,
there are removed from the soil 34.4
pounds of ammonia (equal to 28.3
pounds of nitrogen), I2.7 pounds of
phosphoric acid, and 1913 pounds of
potash.
This loss could just be supplied by
1873 pounds of su1phate of ammonia Can
alyzing rs per cent?, 7o.5 pounds of
acid phosphate (analyzing 40 per cent,
and 1885 pounds of high-grade sui
phate of potash (analyzing 40 per cent }
The fertilizing constituents removed
IN the fruit do not represent the total
loss of plant food from the soil. We
must take into consideration two other
sources of loss: the material used in
the production of new wood, leaves and
roots; and that lost from the soil by
teaching.
The following are the numbers of
pounds of ammonia, phosphoric acid,
and potash, in 1000 pounds of leaves and
1000 pounds of wood In the leaves
are 8.5 pounds of ammonia, I pound of
phosphoric acid, and pounds of potash
in the wood there are 85 pounds of
ammonia, S pounds of phosphoric acid,
and pounds of potash AS may be
seen, the tree draws most heavily upon
the ammonia and potash. However,
after the tree reaches maturity the loss
of plant food from the soil due to
formation Of leaves and wood would
be relatively small.
The loss by teaching falls most heav-
lily on the ammonia, and is greatest
when applications of nitrate Of soda are
followed by heavy rains. In open sandy
soils the loss of phOsphoric acid and
potash must also be considerable.
Should we have continuous heavy
rainfa1l-say 4 to inches-soon after
fertilizers have been applied, much
more of the plant food would be 1eached
out, and carried beyond the reach Of
the roots, than if this same amount of
rain had been distributed over a period
of several weeks. On groves where we
have cover crop established during
the rainy season, the loss would not
be so great as it would where clean cul-
ture is the rule; since the network of
roots would tend to check the down.
ward movement of the water
1t is impossible to form an accurate
estimate of the loss from the last two
causes; but that more or less is sus-
tanned is evident and it must be taken
into consideration when we decide upon
the quantity of fertilizers to be applied
No doubt in many cases this loss could
be reduced without harm to the crop
by judicious use of more humus- form
ing materials, and thus the cost of
fertilizing would be lessened
