ORANGE GROWERS UNITING.
Their Plan to Control the Florida
Trade.
From the New York Times.
What promises to be a revolution in the
Florida orange trade is now being devel
oped by the workings of the Florida Orange
Growers’ Union, an organization that has
beon crystallizing for nearly four years, and
that took definite and active shape five or
six months ago. This is a movement to
insure independent action to tho orange
growers of Florida, and to chango the trade
from the commission system of selling to
the aiigtion system, which lias beon suc
cessfully followed in the foreign orange
trade. The objective point of the Florida
Orange Growers’ Union is to control the
supply" find concentrate tho sale in the
markets of Now York city and Chicago.
Tho members of the organization are en
couraged to bolievothat they can effect this
revolution and thereby force a competition
among buyers instead of having a competi
tion among sellers such as exists under the
commission system. Concerning tiiis matter
J. C. JileKibbin, the president of the
Florid J Orange Growers’ Union, talked
freely to a reporter of the Times yesterday.
•‘The orange growers of Florida,” said
Mr. McKibbin, “were naturally dissatisfied
with the commission system, because under
its workings the grower had to take what
ever tho dealer chose to return to him, and
tho dealer aiwavs chose to return as little
as possible. Under tho auction system
which wo liavo adopted, tho growor will got
whatever the fruit sells for, loss the freight
and commission of the Florida Fruit Ex
change, through which we do all our busi
ness. The Florida Fruit Exchange has been
in existence four years, and it and tho
Florida Orange Growers’ Union aro
practically the same concern. Indeed, it
will not ho a great while before the two will
be formally consolidated.
“Tho orange district of Florida is scat
tered over twenty-one counties. Of these,
the five great producing counties are Lake,
Marion, Orange, Putnam, and Volusia.
The orange-producing territory extendi
from Clay county in the north t> Pasco and
Osceola counties in tho south. The best of
all tho Florida oranges is known as the
Indian river orange, which is almost wholly
in Brevard county. Its superiority consists
in its smooth, thiu rind, its juiciness, and its
flaV&r. The next ! est orange is the Halifax
river orange, which grows largely-in Volusia
county. These are tho be>t of tho Florida
oranges, but all Florida oranges are superior
to those of other countries, except a certain
Mexican orange, which has no superior, but
which grows in a territory so inaccessible
that it rarely, if ever, finds its way into our
markets.
"In order to give you an idea of the
orange industry in Florida, Iwill give you
some statistics: There aro in the state
about 10,000 growers. The acreage is
100,000, and tho capital invested is from
$60,000,000 to $75,000,000. Three seasons
ago there were produced 1,250,000 boxes;
two seasons ago 2,100,000, und last Eeason
about 2,500,000 boxes. We estimate that
the crop of 1890 will be over 4,000,000 boxes.
From this it will be seen that the orange
industry iu Florida has steadily increased
and is still increasing. This, of
course, has had a marked effect on
tho (.ranee trade of the United States and
its influenco is shown iu tho steady decrease
of foreign oranges ,brouglit to our markets.
In 1887 there were impound 1,620,000 boxes
ami 127,000 cases of foreign oranges; in
1888, 1,150,000 boxei and 154,000 cases; in
1889, 1,100,000 boxes and ISO,OOO cases. The
oranges in cases are largely imported from
Valeucia, and these have increased, but the
boxes have decreased. The latter are im
ported from the countries on the Mediter
ranean sea, where orange growing is giving
way to lemon growing, lemon sprigs being
grafted on orange trees.
“Now, all the foreign oranges that come
to the United States are sold at auction, and
these sales are confined to three cities, New
York, Boston, and Baltimore. Wo pr ipose
to follow a similar plan of disposal, and
eventually to sell all Florida oranges at
auction, and to confine the sale to New
York and Chicago. We can do this by
controlling the Florida orange supply. Of
this year’s crop wo already c ontrol 60 per
cent., and next season we snail have almost
exclusive control.
“I have recently traveled all through the
orange district of Florida, and the growers
are wholly in sympathy with our plan.
Nowhere did I find the least antagonism to
it. Fully one-quarter of all the growers iu
the state already belong to tho uuiou, aud
others are joining it. They realize that tho
auction system of selling oranges must pre
vail, and that a concentration of marketing
is necessary. It is only in this way that
they can obtain the actual worth of their
fruit, and be protected against the irrespon
sibility of the diffusive commission system.
‘‘The orange industry in Florida is con
stantly growing. Not only is the acreage
increasing, but countless trees are now ma
turing to their full producing capacity. It
is a fact not generally known that it
requires from tea to fifteen years for an
orango tree to develop. A grove does not
attain perfection in less time than that, the
land speculator* to the contrary notwith
standing. It is true that an orange tree
will bear a few oranges within a few years
after planting, but a tree has to bear not
only a tew, but a great mauy oranges to
make the industry pay.
l “Ihe Florida C jango Grower*’ Union has

the growers as it* member*, and they are in |
thorough synu<at!iy with it* object, and the ]
way is already clear for controlling the :
Florida supply and for concentrating the !
sale in the market* of New York and Chi

ONE HUNDRED YEARS OF AGE.
A Saratosran Celebrated His Centen
nial Birthday on Sunday.
From the New York Sun.
Saratoga, Jan. 12.— Saratoga’s oldest
citizen is David J. Williams. He was born
in Hartford. Conn., J an. 12, 1790, and to
day he celebrated the completion of his
100th year. Mr. Williams is still an active
man, doing little chores about the house,
and. with a basket on his arm, i3 often seen
on the streets as he goe* todo the marketing
for the family with wliich be makes his
home. He is of eeutle mid patient disposi
tion, saying that “at my time of life it is
not worth while to be too easily disturbed.”
When the reporter called on him yester
day, from an easy chair in the family circle,
with a pretty little boy, and a still younger
girl, grandchildren if his niece, clinging af
fectionately to him, uprose this old man, who
in his prime was 6 feet 2 inches tall, and
still stands above the common stature of
men, and shook tho reporter’s hand with an
old-time courtliness and cordiality.
“Now, baby, get down,” said Mr. Will
iams gently to tho youngest child, and then
in the course of an interesting conversation
he related the principal incidents of his life.
“My life has not beau a very eventful
one,” ho said. “A faithful account of it
would bring it among ‘the simple annals of
the poor,’ but for length of days it is indeed
quite remarkable. My father was Gershom
Williams, a mason by occupation. He had
eleven children, of whom I am the oldest
and tho sole survivor. When I was 12
years old my father moved to Marcellus,
Onondaga county, where for eight yoars I
worked hard at fanning and generally as
sisting my struggling parents with their
young brood. Then, at 20, I went to Mont
gomery county and worked as a farm
laborer for two years, and from there
enlisted in the war of 1812, serving two
years. After my discharge from the
urmy I married Miss Esther Swart, daugh
ter of John B. Swart of that county, and
then removed to Newark, N. J. My occupa
tion there was a laborer, and I was among
the first to got employment on a railroad.
Railroads then excited a groat deal of won
der. I well remember tho first train from
Newark to Jersey City. It was then and
for many years after run by horses, and the
first loooaiotive we ever saw was regarded
as a marvel of power and human invention.
It came from Philadelphia. I worked on
the railroad eleven years, and then returned
to York state. I also did a great deal of
work on the Erie canal. For the past forty
years my home has been in Saratoga, and
until a few years ago I was aule to earn my
own living, but now I feel that I am getting
old, and 1 don’t believe 1 shall over be able
to do any more hard work.
“Yes, 1 am an old man," continued Mr.
Williams, in reply to a question as to his
ancestry, “hut I have a good many years
to live yet if I live to be as old as my
father. He was 113 years and 8 days old
when he died, and my grandfather. Albert
L. Williams, lived to tlio age of 129 years
and 11 days. These dates can be verified by
the family record, which is still in exist
ence in Onondaga county. I saw it a few
years ago. There can bo no mistake about
it. Mv mother died at tho age of 82 of con
sumption, and none of the other childron
lived to more than 28. I took after my
father.”
In speaking of his own family, and of tho
wife of his youth, whoso memory he has for
sixty years lovingly cherished, tho old
man’s voice faltered, and tears came to his
eyes.
“She was an excellent woman,” said he.
“We had six childron. None of thorn lived
to ho more than 9 years old. Yes, they are
all dead," he continued musingly, "and
after fifteen years-of happy married life she
died too. But I hopo soon to get where sho
is, and it will boa happy meeting, for all
these sixty years I have been fond of her
and faithful to hor.”
Air. Williams is remarkably well pre
served. All his faculties aro good, and
there is seldom a fair day when he does not
go out to walk. He is very tidy in his dress,
very polite, and a fine specimen of tho old
style gentleman.
