Para Ika fla., dec. Ii who. Dear curious facts Are it Veale to a northerner regard Illy Orange culture As he enquires into the business. Many fabulous stories about the cultivation of this fruit Are Rej it Ort de from this Section and it is strange that some of them should obtain Ere Deuce the Orange season is not yet fairly the fruit begins to Ripen about the first of november Lait does not reach its Best state until about the Middle of january the packing season continues until the first of april i Here Are almost As Many varieties of the Orange As there Are of the Apple but owing to the expense of shipping we rarely get any of the Best fruit at Home. As yet the Orange business is scarcely developed. The Best paying Groves of course Are from old Trees budded from the wild or sour Orange. But Many Groves come from the seed although it takes from eight to ten years to get them upon a paying basis. Occasionally a tree is found that contains blossoms Green and Ripe fruit but such a tree is a rarity. In 1857 col. H. L Hart came Here from Tim Green mountains of Vermont to die with consumption. After awhile he settled at Palatka and saw so Many profitable Fields for investment that he changed his mind entirely upon tire death question and resolved to remain a few years longer upon this mundane sphere. He is Here v to and from his robust appear Ance and the Many brandies of business in which he is engaged it looks As if he can to lit go now. Soon after he came Here the colonel secured an Orange Grove of six acres on a Point directly opposite Palatka on the Banks of the St Johns and this Grove has now become one of tile most famous in Florida. Upon the six acres Are 600 bearing Trees Many of which Are forty five years old having started from the roots alter the heavy Frost of 1835 which killed All of them. There has been no Frost since that Date that has damaged this Grove but others have not fared so Well. There is no better location in Florida for a Grove than the colonel s. One of his old Trees bears an average of 4,000 oranges a year. This number at two cents apiece would yield so a a Good sum for Only one tree. Col. Hart has enlarged his Grove to about Twenty acres most All now bearing Trees and he owns two other Groves at other Points. The annual profit from the Twenty acre Grove across the River has been variously estimated but no a official figures a have Ever been Given by the colonel who is a modest Man and who lets the Grove a speak for several correspondents have a a averaged the whole Grove by taking the tree bearing 4,000 rates As a Sample. But of course such reports Are Gross exaggerations. The colonel manages to get a Good income from his crop and he allows outsiders to figure As they please. This season his entire crop is handled by messes. Young and Hargrove the former of Steubenville Ohio. And the latter residing Here. Both gentlemen Are energetic business men. They Are now shipping the fruit daily by steamers to All parts of the North. Rev. Or. De la mater Indiana a Greenback theological congressman owns an Orange Grove at City Point on the Indian River about one Hundred Miles South of Palatka. He was Down Here the other Day to see it and brought along his gun and dogs and went out upon a regular sporting expedition killing everything that came into his path from a Mosquito to an Alligator. Gen. Tom Bennett of Richmond ind., who was making a tour of the South fell in with the doctor and thus Speaks of his political views in a recent letter to the Richmond Paad in a Quot he she s he has paid off All Hie debts to the democracy and As they concluded to set along without him he proposes to Lei them continue the separation and enjoy their experience. He thinks that of the democracy had endorsed him they could have carried Indiana. He is firm Iii his views on the currency quest Ion anti says after the expiration of his term in Congreve he intends to take the Rostrum in Hie advocacy of the formation of a grand National party for currency Reform and National Unity. He thinks the wreck of the democracy will furnish material to recruit and speaking of the doctors Orange Grove reminds me that preachers have been very fortunate in their investments in Florida. No less than halt a dozen Groves on the St. John s and Ocklawaha Rivers Are owned by ministers and All Are first class yield ing a handsome profit to their owners. Only yesterday i met a Kentucky divine who is enthusiastic upon the Orange business. This week he Purchas 1 Grove situated upon the Oklawaha i River for which he is to pay 514.000 the property would be considered a Good bargain at double the Price. Last year the Grove yielded about $6,000 and this year it will be even More prot i Itable. But such Bargans Are rare. I this is an old Grove. There Are so few bearing Groves for Sale that no fixed value can be placed upon them. A Good bearing Grove can be raised from the seed in seven or eight years but by transplanting wild Orange Trees and a budding Quot them what we would Call a Quot grafting they will begin to Bear in Lour years and yield abundant j by in six. Usually about eighty Trees Are planted to the acre and one Man. With a Little extra help occasionally can look alter an eight or ten acre Grove. Or. Speer a Grove near san Ford is one of the bes known in Flor Ida. It is thirty years old and contains Only seven acres but yielded 350,000 oranges two years ago which netted about $18 per thousand or about $6,000 random notes. About three years ago m. R. An Drevvus started a Grove about six Miles rom St. Augustine and his lather and Mother Are now living there and looking after the interests of the place. We Hope to meet them before returning Home. Nearly All the Fine Groves on the St. Johns and Ocklawaha Rivers Are owned by northerners who spend their Winters South and return Home in summer. Hon d. Key sex postmaster general accompanied by Bis Lanny spent several hours in Palatka tins week. I he party were making a hurried tour of Florida and passed on up the St. Johns visiting several Points and remaining two or three Days. Mrs. Ingram Fletcher and Amily and or. And mrs John s. Newman of Indianapolis arrived Here last evening and expect to spend a portion of the Winter in Palatka. Or Newman is a brother of mrs. Henry Davis of Kokomo and recently visited her family there. Or. Fletcher expects to visit Here during the Winter. He owns an Orange Grove on the St. Johns River a few Miles up or oui Here. Last Spring Gen. Grant and party visited Here and mrs. Grant remained about ten Days while the general went on up the River. A Large number of distinguished people Are expected this Winier and the probabilities Are that All the hotels will be crowded during january and february when a the season is at its Best. Lettuce radishes peas and other vegetables have appeared in the mar Ket Here and strawberries will come in this month. Hie mandarin or a kid gloves Orange is ripening. We Seldom get any of this variety at the North. The mandarin both in size and appearance re semlies a Tomato. It is of a Yellowish red color an is called the a kid gloves a Orange because the Rind which is very thin can be peeled off with gloved fingers and not soil the delicately tinted hand coverings. The flavor is Peculiar but the fruit is very delicious and is much sweeter than other varieties of the Orange. V Ery few mandarins Are cultivated in Florida although they bring $5 a Box when others sell for but $2 and $2 50. Indian River oranges Are now in this Market. This fruit ripens sooner than that grown Here and is vet y Sweet. Bananas. Limes Lemons Citron and other fruits Are now in Market. Pineapples do not Ripen until summer in these parts. Pc. H. P. A Young gentleman of Kokomo who is Semi occasionally made the victim of false and malicious scandal says a if the All governing mind should answer his prayer and say a speak your w ish shall be gratified a he would reach around amongst tile generally Clever people of Kokomo and grab about a Oakery a dozen of the most infernal despicable sordid lows lying gossiped of both sexes that Ever cursed any Community cram each and every one of them into a meal sack accompanied by a grind Stone and pitch the whole Batch one by one into wild Gat at the next Spring there is altogether too much of this false and Idle slander for Kokomos Good. Besides Kokomo has an unenviable reputation As a scandal and gossip shop not be cause she is any More deserving of such repute than other cities of her class but because of the superabundance of mischief makers and gossip mongers which invest her precincts for Kokomo s Sake we wish this species of our Community would take a we Alk pack up and leave and make room for a More civilized enlightened and refined class of people.
