The East Indian mango is one OF
the great fruits of the world. To
those who have really tasted the good
sorts of it the peach loses its place
of highest honor. But the early
travellers were more interested in de-
scribing its peculiarities than in ex-
tolling its wonderful fragrance and
the depth of its flavors, for they told
the plum and cherry eating inhabit,
ants of the British Isles that the man.
go resembled a ball of tow soaked
IN turpentine and molasses, and said
further that in order to eat it you
must undress and climb into bath
tub and that after you ate it you
must comb its yellow hairlike fibers
out of your teeth.
No other fruit in the world has
been so maligned. The mango trees,
which are now loaded with their gol-
den fruits in south Florida are so
valuable that the mayors of the town.
Of South Florida are being beseeched
to keep the boys from stealing the
fruit from the trees, not because
they are balls of tow soaked in mo
lasses and turpentine but be cause,
as they hang on the tree, they are
worth 25 or more cents apiece, and
a boy can eat up a five-dollar bills
worth in the time it takes to tell
about il.
The Office of Foreign Seed and
Plant Introduction of the United Sta
tes Department of Agriculture has as
sembled, through the work of its ex-
plorers and through exchange with
the British East Indian departments
of agriculture, one of the largest COL
lections of selected mango varietie 5
in the world. There are now fruit
ing at the Plant Introduction Field
Station, Miami, Florida, about 20
varieties this year, and these repre-
sent the selections from more than
10 sorts of this great fruit. Som
of these have scarcely more fiber in
them than free-stone peach and
can be cut open lengthwise and eaten
as easily with a spoon as a Rocky
Ford cantaloupe. They have an in
describably agreeable aroma remin-
iscent of pineapples. The mango tree
when it is in bearing, is a gorgeous
sight, for it is large long-lived tree
and the golden-yellow fruits as they
hang in great clusters from the dark
green foliage makes one of the great
tropical plant sights Of the world.
To anyone living within reach of
the Miami Plant Introduction Gar
den on Brickwell Avenue it would be
worth a long motor ride to see this
remarkable sight.
The mango has come as tree crop

was confronted by "A difficult situa'
