island of Guadaloupe in j
1493. and Baron Von tium- !
bolt refreshed himself with j
—. its delicious juice in the |
g. valley of the Orinoco and
^HjK)88? other uninhabited parts ol
aFK South America, it is but
thirty-nine years since the
IJ3J first pineapple plant sent
1 li forth its roots in search ol •
sustenanee through the I
white sands of the Florida
coast. ;
At an early period the pineapple was j
crown in \frica, Asia and the East In-1
lies, and is sai l to have been naturalized i
in Java as early as 1599. It was carried i
n 'Europe soon after its discovery in j
\ mori'-a by < »hi m'bus, uiul i' in probable)
that it was carried to China front Peru]
by way of the Pacific and thence distrl'b- t
tiled to surrounding regions. It is also ]
probable that India derived jts first sup- I
ply from European stock through the ■
Portuguese, soon after its introduction I
into Europe, and thence it extended to !
adjacent countries.
Today flic pineapple production of tite
east coast of Florida is. approximately, j
a. half million crates annually.
To a Conch. Benjamin Baker, belongs
the honor of having established the tin-j
clous around ■which this immense n- j
dustry has developed. In 1867, Hr. Ba-;
ker brought the first pineapple plants to :
Florida, from the Bahamas, and planted j
