FRESH FRUIT ON FLORIDA
FARMERS TABLE EVERY DAY
BY C. K. McQuarrie.)

Two milk cows, two brood sows, 20
head of poultry and at least one-nah
acre of home orchard on every farm
and rural home in Florida.
II seems somewhat of reflection
on the business instinct and intelll
gence of our rural population, farmers
in particular, that the home orchard
on the Florida farm is not more In
evidence than it is. After long resi-
dence in the state every year the con-
vincing fact is brought to our notice
that there is no other section OF un'
Gle Sans wide domain so well adapt
ed to the continuous production oil

For a great many years we have Deeh

a serious lack OF fresh fruits uil 'hS

round.
Perhaps it would not be out OIL
place to discuss some of these deslr
able fruits as they come in their ro-
tation during the year.
In the citrus belt of the state tne
citrus crop seems to overshadow an
other fruits for about six months Oh
the year, but for the remainder OIL
the year other fruits could be pro-
vided that would be at least an
agreeable change.
In the northern belt of the state the

as peaches, could be had in rotation

ed in the state. This is also a desir-
able ornamental tree and up to few
years ago was not much considered
for the furnishing of fruit but its de-
STABILITY is not recognized and few
trees should be included in the orchard
scheme. and We recommend four null
berry and four loquat trees in every
orchard.
Still another greatly neglected fruit
is the peach. BY the selection OF the
early and late varieties, with the va
rieties that come in between, there Is
no reason why we should not have
fresh peaches on the table at least as
the first week In May and running into.
the middle of October. The discussion
of the different types and varieties to
be planted in succession would take
more time and space than we have at
our disposal at this time, but we have
several reliable nurseries In the state
who are willing and glad to furnish
information to the prospective growers
about the desirable varieties and their
rotation
Along with peaches we should have
Dlums and pears. The Excelsior plum
is acknowledged as leader In the
state. and while the "LeConte' pear Is
not as desirable as some people would
like and is also very subject to blight,
with spraying We believe few pear
trees should be considered In setting
out the home orchard One variety OF
pear that is aid to be blight resistant
is the sand" pear. This has In some
places proven blight resistant, but the
quality is poor and all that can be said
for them is that they are pears. But
with the addition of better favored
fruit to the dish they are found de.
sirable as change.
The grape family should not be
overlooked OF this fruit the SOUP

good crops of very desirable fruit, and

Milk and Fruit
1t is well known fact that an am
pie supply of fresh fruit next to plen-
ty of milk, is one of the best means
of having healthy people, particularly
where children are growing up; and
the combination of plenty of milk and
plenty of fresh fruit with our incom-
parable climate would give us a race
of people in the next few generations
equal if not superior to any in the
world.

condition could be brought about. The
