Until the clone of the laat century, It aerme that the fragrance and beau ty of flower* were thought to be their only excuae for exlhting, but at that time Chriatian Conrad Hpringle began to perceive their true aim and aig nlflcance. It appear* rather strange that thia plume of botany should have escaped the early observers in this field of study; It is a fact, however, and Hpringle was the first to conclude that the fragrance and aliowy colors of blossoms were for the purpose of attracting insects to them and, in sip ping nectar would convey pollen from the stamens to the stigma of the pistil and bring about fertilization. Al though lie observed that the insects must of necessity carry pollen from one flower to another in its numerous visits to blossoms, still he did not con ceive the Idea of cross-fertilization which is really the object to be ac complished by tlie Insect. Knitlng to perceive, and amplify tills point, his theory of insect agencies in fertiliza tion was rejected. Kor seventy years nfter Springle's time not much more was accomplish ed toward bringing uliout the estab lishment of the agency of Insects in fertilizing flower*. At this time, however, Charles Darwin appears In the Held, and his wonderful work on "The Fertilization of Orchids" revolu tionized the study of botany. I’ecu hurdles of forms that had heretofore been looked upon us simply freaks of nnture were now revealed in tlicii true significance; namely, that, In sects might accomplish cross-fertiliza tion. We all know how mullittidinoiia arc the forms of flowers. The mechanism of some are simply uwe-luspiring. All these different details In the makeup of blossoms are to facilitate the mis slon of the insect visitors. Certain plants have their intimate friends ill the Insect world, and the mechnnisn of their flowers is adapted to these in sects, and consequently these plant! have for their constant visitors this special kind of insect. Insects are not fools! They go where they receive tin liest treatment. Sec what linn and everlasting friendship exists bctwei our red clover and the bumble lie Not many years since this clover seed was taken to Australia for the pin- po*e of Introducing it Into that coun try. The seed germinated all right, the plants grew luxuriantly and bios somed In profusion, but that is all No seed was formed Unit tlie species might be perpetuuted. What caused this failure? It is easily explained. Australia could not boast of tlie bum ble bee, and the clover absolutely re fused to accept the native bees us a substitute for the dear old friends and companions of its native home far over the sea. When the Australian Introduced our bumble bee Into the! country, the clover matured seed in abundance, and to all appearance is now content In Its new home. Home plants that have showy flow era do not secrete nectar, but they are visited by certain pollen-feeding insects and thus oross-fcrtilizntiou is insured. There are plants which hav, Inconspicuous ‘flowers without fra gratice fir nectar, but pollen in abun fiance. With these plants, oross-ferti lizntlnn is accomplished principally by the wind. Who has not seen, fir at least heard of showers of sulphur? The yellow substance settling upon the ground is simply pollen wafted by the wind from forests of pine and al lied species and falling to the earth miles from Its source. The pine flow ers are odorless, inconspicuous and possess no nectar, lint have abuntlan IMillen; hence, wc see it is the wind in tills case that does the work of cross-fertilizing. Flowers that do not possess copious pollen must dc|>end on insects to car ry on tlie work of cross-fertilization. 'I’o accomplish this end, the blossoms seem to vie with each other in their endeavor to look the most attractive. and they appear to smile in their most bewitching manner that they may receive a cull from insects. They also show tlicit- preference, as before stated.for certain kinds. I.et ns review the culture of toma toes in the greenhouse, that we may more plainly see the value of our in sects ill growing vegetables of fruits. Here you may supply by artificial means the soil, light, heat anil moist ure that the plants would have in a garden, but you deprive them of tlicii true friends the insects. Wliat is the outcome of this? Your plants will grow and blossom, and you would think that you would have a good crop, but you are doomed to disap pointment. Insects a :■«• absent and fertili/.atIon lias not been accomplish ed. ill order to get a good crop, all that is necessary is for you to take the res|M>nsil>ility of the insects upon .vour own shoulders and do tlie work of fertilzing by hand. This process is called “poileniitiug," und is done by dusting pollen from one flower to an other. A slow process indeed, lint a necessity. Mr. Can in in Ids paper yesterday while speaking about struwberry culture, said I lie pistilate varietles of plants gale the ls-sl re suits, but that in using these Kind oi plants, about every third or fm,n row must be set with stamluute vani ties to fertilize the pistilate ones. Now how would this fertilization take place if it were not for insects? From these few remarks, I hope you will be lend to understand that all of our Insects are not so injurious as is generally supposed, ami that flowera huvr an object in existing beyond their beauty, which nature says shall be accomplished by the aid of Insects W. E. Kumsey, Assistant Entomolo gist West Virginia Experiment Sta tion. Orange County Farm Talk. Prom th* Agriculturist. We Hr* all busy during these beau tiful October days plowing out the orange proves and jotting’ them ready for the winter. We hove let the kthhs and betfffnr weed grow since the first of .Tuly, and have a ffoorl coat of vegetable matter to turn under. We believe In keeping the land full of huiniiR ho that when imercial fertilizer Ih applied it will do twice hh much good an i» the Imre blenched soils of the lean eulturint. YVe find that the beggar weed Ih ahead of anything that we have seen to build up the hoII in our groves, and it in a growth that one can with a good steel plow and chain cover up entirely out of sight, which one can not do with the crab griiNH. In fact the later i« about the worst, growth to plow under that I ever Hnw, except conch pea vines. Our groves are coining on fast where they have been worked and fertilized this and last year. In some grove« there are n few oranges, and next year there will be a good many to ship. In two more years there will not be much trace of the freeze left, in groves well cared for. There are a few groves in this neighbor hood that will lie ns large as ever in one more year. Nearly all the bud ding hiin been done, and there are lots of line buds here, of better vari eties No more sweet Hcvilles. In the meantime, while we are waiting for our groves to bear again, we are fust learning to make a living out of the soil. Rome grovverw have made enough corn to last them n year ami others part of tlie year. One man planted five acres in an old grove, put on $17.00 worth of fertili- zers, watered it once during the dry weather and gathered 39 bushels of Hindi corn per acre. All of our grow- rrs have saved enough or more than enough hay to do them. The mower and hay rake Iiiik been kept busy for some weeks. When we mention the sweet potato crop we find that we can not esti- mate it for quantity or quality. We all raise the best potato that can lie found and the country is full of them. One of my neighbor lias two acres of cowpenned land that will make enough potatoes for t.liin whole pre cinct. I have nine rows too feet long planted the first of May, Utat 1 com menced to use from in two months by grabbling out tin; big ones and leaving the small ones to grow, and have kept the family supplied witli them ever si nee. The Varieties are the Nancy Hanks and the Provi dence. The former is the most pro ductive and earliest, is a flue yellow yum, without any pumpkin flavor, and the beat potato to eat new of any. It was originated near Orlando mil was called the Nancy Hall, but coming into existence about the time of the famous “Nancy Hanks" en gine, it soon began to be called after it. It has short vines with heavy leaves, which cover the ground quick ly, thereby smothering out the grass, 'resting it side by side with the bunch yam, the odds are so far in favor of the Nancy Hunks. Some fall crops of Irish potatoes were planted in August from the seed saved from the spring planting. They are growing otT quite well. A few earl\ cabbages have been set out, and plant beds for the later crop are all up. The onion crop is up with a good stand, but there is not much money in Florida raising onions at 75 cents per bushel and only a small crop has been planted. Celery is being tried in small quan tities. In some experiments on new muck it was a failure but on well enriched low pine land it has done extra well. S. P. Shepherd. Palm Springs, Fla.

This is n mistake, how ever, for the apparatus of the most modern design, Including everything necessary to preserve the products in excellent condition, can he bought at ] a price which makes it possible for an 1 outfit to be purchased by individual I growers. For instance, a plant for preserving 2,000 three-pound cans, or 1 2,7:10 two-pound cans daily, can be purchased for $100. This includes process and scalding kettles, fire-pot, crane fixtures, furnace doors and grate bars, cupping machines and coppers, tipping coppers, scalding basket; also files, tongs, thermometer, svrup gauge, process and exhaust cages, foregoing stoke and vise.

A ten horse-power boiler, including stack and connections between boiler and kettles, would cost $100. A building 20 by 30 feet would be suitable, or a smaller building, with shed attached, would answer every purpose. A plant for canning 3,000 three- pound or 1,000 two-pound cans daily costs but $ I SO. This includes process, scalding and exhaust kettles, two fire- pots and a double set, of cupping ma chines, coppers and the other appar atus already Specified. If steam is used, a twelve horse-power boiler, costing $190, would be required, and a building only 20 by 10 feet in size. A canning plant of 5,000 two-pound cans daily capacity costs but $200 in addition to a fifteen horse power boil er, if steam is used. The latter would cost $210, making n total of $110. An outfit to preserve 13,000 two- pound cans per day will cost $300; with twenty-five horse-power boiler $575.

Taking a 5,000-can plant, costing a trifle over $100, an extensive grower could readily preserve n large por tion of his crop in ease he failed to realize a fair price for his crops, and by thus keeping his goods, he could place them on the market whenever the prices warrant a sale. Any one of these outfits placed in the neigh borhood and owned by several grow ers, for instance, could be operated at .i minimum cost, and in one season might save their owners the entire cost of the apparatus. The improved methods of can-mak ing have reduced the price of these goods to a very low figure. Tlie same applies to solder, soldering fluid, la bels, etc., all of which are much cheaper than a few years ago.—West Point Farmer. State of Ohio, City of Toledo,|ss Lucas County. Frank ,1.

Pour over them a half pint of strong vinegar, and as much soft water as will just cover the nails. Let it stand for two days, shaking oc casionally so as to rust the nails in every part. Then fill with water to make a gallon. Put about a half cup ful daily in about a gallon of drink ing water, especially during a change of seasons. This gives a better iron tonic than the old method of placing rusty iron in the drinking water, und we like it better than plum tincture of iron. If pm in the drinking water during molting, it will give strong evidence of toning qualities, and if placed before fowls recovering trom sickness it shows its strengthening power.— Ex.

Neusallou In Havana. A Key West, Fla., special to the Jacksonville Times-Union says: A letter received here from a cor respondent in Havana, who is close to Consul-General Lee, gives a dra matic account of the episode. Ac cording to the letter, when the Vlgil- ancia put into Havana, the Spanish authorities demanded the surrender of Sector Angel Fernandez, a Mexi can, on board the vessel. The Span iards alleged that Fernandez was not a Mexican, but a subject of Spain, and a deserter from the .Spanish army. Captain John McIntosh, of the Vigilanclft, refused to surrender Fer nandez. Then the Spanish authori ties told McIntosh that if theVigilan- ciu atteempted to go to sea with Fer nandez on board, she would be sunk by the guns of Morro Castle. Cap!inn McIntosh immediately laid the matter before Consul-General Lee, who complimented the captain on bis bravery, and told hi in to take the Vlgilancia to sen when he pleas ed. Consul Lee was greatly enraged nt the threat to sink the Vigilancia, and is reported to have said to Cap tain McIntosh: “If the guns of Mor ro Castle sink your ship. American warships will lie bombarding Havana in a few days.” McIntosh returned to the Vigilan cia, and Consul Lee informed Weyler that the vessel was going to sea, and that if any attempt was made to take off Fernandez, or if the vessel wuo fired on, Spain must take the consequences. Weyler immediately summoned a cabinet council, and while this council was considering Lee’s letter, the Vigilancia began to weigh anchor. The Spanish officials on board protested, but Captain McIntosh said, in vigorous United States: “Damn your objections. My ship has been cleared. My consul has told me to go to sea. I am going and ! dare you to try to prevent me. Get off my ship.” And with that the gritty Yankee roughly shoved the Spaniards into their waiting boats, and the Vigilan cia attempted to go to sen with Fer- stood for the mouth of the harbor, which is commanded by the guns of Morro Castle. All was excitement in Havana, and housetops were lined with hundreds of persons, who expected to see the Vigilancia fired on. Consul Lee him self watched the Vigilancia through a glass. Meanwhile, signals were being ex changed betwen Weyler's palace and Morro Castle, and in the latter place there were signs of great activity. Slowly the Vigilancia entered the mouth of the harbor, and then it was noticed that the guns of Morro were trained on the ship. The Vigilancia repeatedly signaled Morro Castle, ”1 am going to sea,” but no answer came from the fort until the vessel was in blue water, and then the Spaniards ran up the signal, which means “goodbye.” A Convincing Testimonial.

Orop Conditions, special from Washington says that returns to the statistical division of the department of agr eultureforOctober make cotton shoi a decline of 3.5 points from the Sej tember condition, which was 64.2, against 60.7 for the present month.

W.B.MAKINSON,COMPANY, KISSIMMEE FLA. London Time* ou Wheat. The Times, commenting, tomorrow, upon the state of the London market, says that the rise in the price of wheat in America, caused something resembling consternation, and, when the American opening cables were re ceived, there was a scene, such as is not only usually seen, except in time of war. The paper adds, that the advance appears to be chiefly due to the sale of American wheat in India, which frightened the speculators a great deal. Cautious observers think that a rise of five shillings per quarter iu a week fully discounts the effect of the abnormal Indian demand.

Bulletin No. 12 of the Louisiana Ex periment Station describes the re sults of horticultural experiments made in 1895 and the present outlook for trucking in Louisiana. The fol lowing remarks are of general appli cation: Truck farming means intensive, high farming. Lands dedicated to truck must be heavily fertilized, not with commercial fertilizers only, but with such home-made manures as will insure large supplies of organic mat- ter. The frequent incorporation of vegetable matter by the growing and turning under of some leguminous crop preferably cow peas—addition al by mineral manures, will in a few years render these soils well adapted to truck growing. If stable manure be used, they should first thoroughly be composted and several times piled and cut down in order to bring them into a most available condition as plant food. A compost of stable manure,cotton seed, acid phosphate and kuinit, mixed in such proportions as will suit the crop to be grown, will be found a very ef fective fertilizer, perhaps superior to any other mixture. When the supply of home manures is inadequate for tlie demands of vour crop these may be supplement- i ed by cotton seed meal, acid plios- | phate and kuinit, mixed to suit the | kind of vegetable grown. - j Proper rotation must be observed i in truck growing as in general farm- ! ing, if the fertility of the soil be maintained and maximum results de- | sired. A slight knowledge of botany, yea even of the character of the vege tables grown, will greatly assist the farmer in determining the rotation to be adopted.
