crop of velvet beans off large area at
the close of the rainy season, by simply
h1tch1ng team to one of the heaviest
sulky rakes, such as are used to rake
alfalfa with in the West, and by raking
the vines up in windrows, [ have i'm
mediately planted the land to snap beans,
without another bit of preparation, as
the heavy roots of the velvet beans have
during their long summer growth pump
ed up supply of fertilizing ingredients.
1t is unnecessary under such conditions,
to fertilize the beans until they have put
out the first signs of their character
leaves. We, thus, not only save the
price of one application of fertilizer,
but also the labor required to apply the
same. Some of the heaviest and most
profitable crops of beans I have ever
grown were made in this way, the ex-
pense of growing by this method being
less than half of what it would have
been had I been obliged to clear this
same land Of the ordinary weed and
stubble, which would naturally infest
land of this character, had the same
been left to grow unmolested
The man who stays in Florida, there
fore throughout the summer has even
more advantages over the nonresidents
here than he would elsewhere. [ do
not mean by this that the farmer should
not have his little recreation in the way
of vacation, but rather that he should
see that he does not lose great advan-
tages by neglecting such opportunities
as above suggested.
I think, indeed, it is very good idea
for the Florida farmer to take a trip
through the North and notice how his
Northern farmer friends carefully econ
omize, and incidentally, how very hard
they work. 1t will always be a pleas
ant feeling with him to be aware of the
fact that he has so many advantages
over his Northern competitor-Ever-

THE BEST FARMER.

who is the best farmer?" was
question asked of that wise old farmer,
Hiram Smith, several years ago.
His answer was something like this:
Some would say the best farmer is
the man who raises the biggest crops
and produces the best animals. That is
true if these results are caused by his
previous wise care of both soil and ami
mails. But I tell you that the best
farmer is the man who bestows the most
thought and care on his soil, keeping 1t
up to the highest state of fertility Also,
if he is an animal farmer, he must do
the same by his animals Such farm
and farmer will invariably make the
most money if that is what you are after,
for he has something to make money
with"

Sugar cane can be made very profit
able crop in this state. AS much as 500
gallons of syrup can be manufactured
from a single acre under good culture,
and as Florida cane syrup seldom sells
for less than IS cents per gallon, it
should be very remunerative crop in
deed. By thorough culture and light
applications of fertilizer, sugar cane can
be made to bear many years in success
ion. It is also considered a very useful
forage crop.
Sweet potatoes, if carefully grown,
will yield 200 bushels or more per acre.
and in this southern climate they need
not be dug until wanted. If left in the
ground until late in spring, they gener-
ally sell at very remunerative prices.
l found the market comparatively bare
of this vegetable in the spring months
at that time, they are apt to sell for $I.25
or more per bushel
If we are in possession of a grove of
either citrus or tropical fruits, we will
have Our hands full during the summer
time, if we wish to practice clean cul-
ture. The ground must be stirred after
every rain, or the weeds and grass will
soon gain a strong foothold. In case we
simply NOW our grove, it must be done
once every fortnight for the best effect
The margins of the grove should at all
times be kept clean, so as not to let
the strong growing tropical vines and
underbrush encroach from the adjoining
fields.
Much road building can be done in
the summer time, repairs to machinery,
as we'll as painting can be attended to.
All tools, Of course, should be carefully
stored at the end of the working sea-
son, first giving all bright tools careful
coat of axle grease to prevent them from
getting rusty. Summer is preeminently
adapted for the installation of irrigating
plants, as we have plenty of time, and
this season of the year, the work can
all be carefully dore and tested
In the southern portions of our state
where the mango, avocado and other
tropical fruits flourish, we have much
to keep us busy, for it is during the
summer months that these attain their
greatest growth. 1t is during this time
that marching and budding of the same
takes place. The demand is steadily
growing for many of these new fruits
throughout the North, especially in the
larger cities. In fact, anyone who has
once acquired the taste for the mango
Or avocado, will ever thereafter, become
a customer for the same Many of
these tropical fruits will, therefore, soon
become staple in our markets.
The man who has taken time by the
forelock, carefully prepared his land and
he
sumner time will reap great advantage
in the fall by having much less work to
do in the preparation of his land, as
these crops can be moved, raked and
removed from the soil at much less ex-
pense than weed crop of any kind In
addition to this, the succeeding winter
crop will be much healthier and heavier.

Summer Farming in South Florida
BY WALTER WALDIN.

there seems to be a general opinion
among most persons that there is no
thing doing in Florida in the summer
time. This illusion is probably brought
about by tourists, for when the first
few warm days begin to make life irk-
some under Our Southern sun, in the
sporting line, they invariably leave for
cooler and pleasanter climes We all
have feelings akin to each other, and
thus some of Our home people are also
infected, and if they are not in financial
position to migrate with the fortunate
ones, the best they can do is to simply
move around to the shady side of the
house, and not unlike the Northern
ground hog, indulge in Our long siesta
But how about the financial end of
this proposition? Can not we farmers
find something that will not only be
profitable to us, but will have more
beneficial influence on our minds and
bodies, than to simply sit and think, or
like our Southern ''cracker," sit and
sleep.
Our greatest profit in all branches of
agriculture, is more frequently derived
from the one source, namely, getting
ready; for the man who has his pre-
liminary work we'll in hand in any
branch of business has his job half done
before his competitor gets started.
know it is dead easy to sit down, put
your hands in your lap, and cape and
sigh, or like the Florida "cracker" chew
tobacco and spit at the humble bees in
the near blossoms. This may be entic-
ing to some, but if we want to cultivate
success, we must get busy and stay So
We have our fields here before us
that have grown abundant crops dur
ing the busy season; now shall we let
them grow to a wilderness of weeds
during the summer, or shall we care
fully till the field and by putting in a
summer, Or cover crop, carefully pre-
serve the fertility of the soil, and also
benefit the soil by the moist, cool
shade of growing vegetation? We use
great quantities of fertilizer in this
state to force Our winter crops, the
residue Of which is bound to remain
in the soil, often to be wasted by be-
ing taken up by the weeds, which are
later on frequently destroyed by be-
ing burnt up The question naturally
arises, shall we not utilize this fertility
by either growing good pasture crop,
or by growing one of our useful legumes,
such as velvet beans, beggar weed, or
COW peas? Before we plant one of the
above named, we should carefully con-
slider what our following winter crops
upon this piece of land shall be; for in
stance, if we should plant beggar weed,
it would require considerable more time
to make crop upon the same land in
the fall In planting either one of these
leguminous crops, would advise al
ways, extra seeding, particularly so,
should we desire to follow with an early
fall crop; the heavy seeding in this case
helping to cover the ground much earlier
in the summer, and therefore, fastening
the ripening and harvesting of the crop
proportionately.
We should diversity in Our summer
crops just as we do in Our winter crop,
a part of Our fields should always be

FEED FOR PROFITS.

When man has money invested in
land, in feed, in cows, in dairy machinery
