FLORIDA. While Florida is one of the oldest, it is among fhe'youngcst of the states, the larger portion still a wilderness, and the state has made greater pro¬ gress in wealth and population since the war than during all the {re¬ ceding 300 years of its history. Few states have as great possibili¬ ties as Florida. The past year it produced 3,000,000 boxes of oranges, and in a few years it will produce 10 , 000 , 000 . Lemons, limes, figs, pears, peaches and pineapples are becoming staple crops, and are about as profitable to the grower as the orange; pineapples even more so. Cocoa Nut trees are beingjset extensively and when they are in full bearing nothing brings such large returns. Banaunas are grown to great perfection and excellence andgire likewise profitable. Straw¬ berries are largely cultivated,and the acreage is increasing every year. 'I he guava is a delicious fruit very profit¬ able, and the area of its cultivation is extending. The Japan plain brings from $5 to $6 a bushel to the pro¬ ducer and is destined to be a valua- ble crop. The grape, especially the scuppernong, is very prolific, produc¬ ing 1,000 gallons of wine to the acre. Other fruits, as persimmon, pawpaw, custard-apple, date, pomegranate, nectarine, apprieot, almond, sappa- dillo, avocado pear, grape fruit, plum, prune, mango are grown with profit, and blackberries, blueberries and dew- berries are abundant in all parts of the stat e. In addition to Cocoa nuts, pecan, J/aderia and Brazil nuts are grown sum ssfulhyis well as pea nuts. Fruits an j nuts rnay be classed as chief a- m oug the staple products of the state, Another important staple is cotton; s ^ a ^ e produces more than one half G f the spool cotton used throughout t p 0 Tobacco is to be another great g^pj^ '1 his industry is revived and it {ouua tlult lh e quality of the to- bn„*co raised is equal to the best Havana.

It’ is not t() late to plant the corn jet. Get ^ithern corn. Prepare £ roun 1 well, plant in rows about 3* «et art, and about d niches apart in the .*ow. Manure and cultivate there ;hly and well,'the same as for a first class * crop of ordinary corn, During the Summer you can make your >ilo. Next winter you will have some lino feed for your cattle; next year you vviil be prepared to put in several acres of ensilage, add con- siderbly to your stock and thus grad¬ ually work into the stock business. The following experience of a Wis¬ consin farmer with ensilage, is taken from fiie Gainesville Industrial News: Siio. My Silo.—-My silo is constructed as follows: 26x24 ft.,14 ft. posts,frame. Divided into two pits, 12x13ft. Built on east end of hay barn, L sed 2x8 studding, two thicknesses of common inch boards for outside and one thick ness of common boards and building paper for inside of studding, and till¬ ed in between studding with saw- ust, extending roof of barn over silo. Ring in with six inches of earth for or. '’'"'Filling—-Commenced cutting and ^’ling the silo the 7th of September. Weather was not favorable,too much rain. Corn had commenced to dent when cutter was set in motion. The last planted was the first cut. This was Unfortunate, as there was at least a week’s difference in the time of the planting, time of and cutting, six days’ owing difference location in to of the field and condition of the weather. I wish to call attention to wasi superior to the other,planted last and cut first. 1 tried to cut corn and lay i» heaps to wilt, but this method had to bo abandoned, as it made too much work in spreading when wet. Would cut corn for two days in each pit, and allow the ensilage to heat up to 120 degrees. As much as two thirds of the field planted last was cut and run ir.to one pir. The corn from acres of ground wa s cut into the silo, and completed the 17th day of September. Farmers Incredulous—The silo was left uncovered for a week,until it showed a heat of 130 degrees; then covered first with tarred paper and then with common inch boards. About two tons of old marsh hay were thrown t j to top of the boards, and this well tramped. The silo was little more than half filled, and con¬ tained about 90 tons of ensilage. While tilling the silo hundreds of fanners and business men of Taylor coi/n'ty,and many from adjoing COUli- ties, visited the premises and inspect¬ ed the process of filling the silo. - I was informed by a large majority of the visitors that 1 would have a large pile of manure to haul out of the silo in the spring; that unless 1 threw in lots of salt it would not keep. Others would ask me if 1 knew what I was doing; that J was wasting my corn crop; that it was too bad to waste such a good corn crop, etc. Opening the Pits,—1 assure you, gentlemen, that it was with a great deal of uneasiness on my part that,on the 9th of November,! uncovered one half of the pit filled last. On the south end about six inches of the top was moldy, but near the centre of the pit there was not more than two inch- es of mold on the top. A very little rot and mould on outside constituted all the waste in pit No. 1. The dry stock ate almost all the moldy ensilege, so that the waste was almost nothing. On o- pening pit No. 1 tne thermometer showed 135 degrees. After remain- ing open some tune the heat grew less, so that the temperature ed at about 100 degrees. 1 fed from the top, and vised one-half the ensi- lage in the first pit. This was about the middle of December, and the weather was quite cold. In feeding ensilage from second pit 1 du so , bv ; boards covering falling ensilage, The to keep the cover remained from fresh, in. ensilage and no danger from frost was experienced. January 15th ! 1 opened second (5 pit. 'to Temperature 140 decrees; from 8 inches of mold and rot on too; sides c,...siderbly rot- moldjei.s.iaire more watery than first pit, All excepting t h e top and sides near the board was good. At a fair estimate there was about 3 times as much loss in second pit opened as in the first.
