R. S. Criticized of Chicago, who
is spending a season in this city,
calls our attention to a late issue
of the Chicago Herald in which
practically the whole of one page
was given up to matter pertaining
to oranges and the many ways in
which they may be prepared and
served. 1t is matter that has a
practical value to housewives and
it will no doubt tend to stimulate
the consumption of oranges
wherever it is read. The Florida
fruit growers will thus get an in
direct benefit from it.
