Although the attendance at Tues

isfactory, the number was greatly
augmented this morning.
The program fell into two parts,
the first being devoted to grove ma
chinery and the second to the meth
DDS and the Importance of develop
ing high quality in citrus fruit.
Frazier Rogers of the College of
Agriculture Gainesville, spoke concise
ly and clearly on use of the tracts,
making the point that the use of ma
chinery for agricultural work in the
United States as compared with the
use. of man power general in Japan,
and other countries, results in
smaller production per acre but a
larger production per man, and low
err cost in proportion to the volume
of production.
L. H. Kramer, of Lake Wales set
forth the different types of machin-
cry for grove cultivation and spoke
of the cost and frequency of cultive
ton. Mr.. Kramer gave helpful
presentation of his subject. He is
an advocate of frequent cultivation,
particularly in dry weather. when
twice a week is none too often, in
his opinion, for cultivation to preserve
the dust mulch.
Geo. v. Leonard, of Hastings, had
prepared a short carefully thought
out paper on Grove Factors Influenc-
ing Citrs Fruit Quality" which was
read by Secretary Floyd, in the abb
sence of Mr.. Leonard.
A. H. Brown, of Manatee gave a
comprehensive but not lengthy treat
ment of the topic, "Citrus Fruit
Quality" Mr.. Brown laid emphasis
on cultivation as a means Of develop
ing quality, stating that frequent,
proper cultivation results in more
Juice and less rag"
