Hay Fever or Bronchial Asthma in Lakeland can try my treatment entirely at my risk,” Dr. Rudolph Schiffmann announces. He says: “‘Buy a 50-cent package of my Asthmador or Asthmador Cigarettes, try it, and if it does not afford you immediate relief, or if you do not find it the best remedy ycu have ever used, take it back to Henley & Henley's and they will return your money, cheerfully and without ques- tion whatever. After seeing the grateful relief it has afforded in hun- dreds of cases, which had been con- sidered incurable, and which had been given up in despair, 1 know what it will do. I am so sure that it will do the same with others that I am not afraid to guarantee it will relieveNinstantaneously. The drug- gists handling Asthmador will re- turn your money if you say so. You are to be the sole judge and under this positive guarantee, absolutely no risk is run in buying Asthma- dor.” Persons living elsewhere will be supplied under the same guazrantee by their local druggist or direct by Dr. R. Schiffmann, St. Paul, Minn. 3060 PAY YOUR WATER AND LIGHT BILLS—SAVE INCONVENIENCE The attention of certain consum- ers of water and electricity is called to the regulation of the City of Lakeland requiring the discontinu- ance of service to those who have not paid for August service by the 25th of September.

Goodw St. Lucie county is the most extensive and practically the on- ly pineapple field in the Unitéd States, our annual shipments amounting to on an average ot (00,000 crates, or 2,000 car-loads.' Mr. Goodwin's article follows: The varieties of pineapples most grown are Red Spanish and Abbaka, with a few Smooth Cayennes and Porto Ricos and Queens. The Red Spanish are the most popular variety on the market. The abbakas and Smooth Cay- ennes will grow on soils unsuit- ed for Red Spanish. The pargest acreage of pines will be found at Osa, Viking, St. Lucie, Fort Pierce, Eldred, Wal- ton, Eden, Jensen, Ankona, Rio, Stuart, Delray, Boynton, Deer- field, Pompano, Little River, and Miami, and at these points may be grown without frost protec- tion, though none of these field have escaped frost damage at times. A few fields are protected from frost damage by slatted sheds, which cost about $350 or $400 per acre, but it is generally considered more profitable to grow them in the open. The pineapple plant delights in a well-drajned soil and abhors ‘a wet soil, thus the high sand ridge along the Indian river is particularly adapted for growing this fruit. The best land for pineapples in our section is covered with Hickory scrub. The next best is covered with scrub oak or spruce pine, or both. Uncleared land of this kind sells for about $100 per acre and very little available. There are fields near Fort Pierce that have borne 21 crops without replanting, the average tlife of a field is about 15 years, when the old plants are removed and new ones planted. To clear the land, cut off the small growth even with the ,ground with a brush-axe .or ‘machette; then grub the land to [} _'a depth of about 10 inches with zn grub-hoe, throwing the roots 1o the top of the ground, where all trash that would interfere with cultivation may be raked up and burned. After raking, mark off the "|land with a marker that marks four or five rows at a time, 21x21 inches, which will take about 12,000 plants to an acre, leaving two rows out between beds of 15 rows, for an alley to facillitate picking during harvest time. The price of slips in July or mature during about $6 delivered to the station in sacks. The slips should be at least 8 inches in length, with a good, stock butt. Trim the slips by cutting off half an inch from the hard butt, and tear off three rows of the leaves. Drop a plant at the intersection of €ach row, using a garden trowel to lift up the sand while’ the slip is inserted about two inches and left upright. Drop in the heart of the plant about a heaping tablespoonful of fertilizer that will not burn, to prevent sand from entering the heart during a heating rain. Af- ter four to six weeks, when the voung plants have rooted, hoe with a scuffle hoe to break fAny crust that has formed and to kill weeds. TFrequent hoeing is of benefit, but be careful to use on- Iy a scuffle hoe, as the pineapple plant is shallow rooted. Fertilize before cool weather starts in September or October, and hoe it in well, with ahout 1,000 pounds to the acre. Fertilize again, when the‘ plants are about a year old, with at least 1,000 pounds to the and after harvest, is per thousand SESOFOPDIAFOTOBOTOL0 0IOBOS HOS NSO OO0 W. J.

Figure on giving about two tons to the acre of a mixture analyzing 3 per cent ammonia, 6 per cent K20 andz2 percent phos- phoric acid per acre a year, :'ip- plying in two applications, ‘or, as some growers advocate, smaller applications more fre- Guently. i H In applying fertilizer 1t 15 a cood plan to put on the heaviest application right aiter tl?e crop is off and after applications when rain is in sight. The standard pineapple fer- tilizers sold by the reliable fer- tilizer dealers may be relied up- on as being well mixed tnd true tc analysis, and as cheap as one can mix at home. : Many growers use a mixture high in ammonia right after af- ter the crop is off to make plant orowth, and high in potash in the fall to balance up to make the plants hardy and fruit to carry well. Some years ago I reasoned that the plants would do better with a balanced ration at all times and results with me have proven satisfaclory in using a 5 per cent ammonia, 6 per cent potash, 2 per cent phosphoric acid formula from the budding of the young plants to old age, and the fact that I have some acre, llll(] agam pounds before fields that have borne consecu—‘ tive crops for 21 years tends to prove that I am right. The fruit is harvested in the latter part of May, June and Ju- ly, the Abbaka and Smooth Cay- enne varieties coming last as a late variety. The Smooth Cayenne, Porto Rico and Queen have almost disappeared from the Indian river section, as the fitlds are shorter lived than the Red Spanish. Some fruit is harvested dur- ing every month, with a light crop in the fall during October and November. The fruit is sold mostly through brokers and commis- sionmen, but some is sold at the track from day to day at varying prices, and some is sold as ,a crop by sizes as well as flat price for the whole season’s output for the field run. At the present time there is no selling ranization among the growers on the East Coast, but there is| a strong possibility of orgapiz- ing in future as a branch of the F1o=da Citrns Exchange. Speed the day. Three hundred to 3350 crates of 80 pounds weight, containing 16, 1R, 20, 24 Abbakas or 18, 24, 30, 30, 12 and 48 Red Spanish apples to the acre is considered a good output for the first two vears; after that an average of 27C crates per acre per vear for a period of the next 12 or 14 vears is considered good crops. It cost about 85 cents per crate to grow the fruit, pack it and get it on the cars ready to move. : In 1913 crops netted S1.60 average, leaving a profit of about 75 cents per crate. Of course it may be guessed that some growers made more and some less. This year the crop was small, owing to frost damage in all sec- tions, ‘together with fhe effect of a long drouth, and net re- turns for desirable fruit was much larger than last year. Large quantities of cull pines ball-heads, illshaped and over- ripes are thrown away every season, and it seems that a can- nery would pay. No doubt that if a grower had the facilities and time during a busy harvest sea- son he could can or preserv some of this fruit to very profit- able advantage. : about net m €., to ilding at 220 Missourji Av where I will be glad . .
