Tim eh arch­ es, the college and good citizenship make, our best assets. I am enclosing you a clipping from the Los Angeles Times; I t J s now the harvest time for oranges in Hoot hem California. Since tho year begun in marketing this crop, .November 1, lflO& to the present date, the business nas been small. From 'February I to 'Ju n e 30 is the period when tho great crop of navels moves in force. To date since November 1 there have gone E as t 05T2,carloads of ci trus fruit, of which 456S were oranges a n d 11104 lemons. In the name period of la s t season ship­ ments amounted to a 'to ta l of 5840 ears, of which 4770 wereoranges and 1-461lemons. This shcfws tha t the marketing this year is nearly the same as last, the total deficit being Heavy i-itVifojc:*early hoimdinies glut markets hut this nmU tioa was avoided m November and Jn tviifoer off th is year. This Wei k report 3 from New York show that fancy fru it sells up to $3.00 per ' E. '\ j choice going a t $2,50 and stan­ dard falling but little below I t may bo well to remind some readers tha t it costs about $l.f>o per box to got fru it from tho trees in Califor­ nia to the auction room In eastern cities. Capital invested and cost of cultivation makes it necessary th a t the grower get $1 per box, average, on tho trees, or tho business is not profitable. The future is always a guess, The growers and shippers look for a fairly good Reason fo the close. The -weather has been on the whole fa­ vorable, Tho early cold snap did some injury to the fruit. I t came who© most of the crop was green, and unable to resist the cold. Had it come when the fru it is mature no damage would have followed. The fru it which suffered is all gone. An orange nipped with frost falls from the tree in a short period. The ex­ cellent quality of the oranges to is season makes a good foundation on which to build hopes of a success­ ful year- Ordinarily a b ru t this tune straw­ berries from the Qulft States begin to go to northern markets In train- loads; week by week tho crop far­ ther north comes In, till Ju ly , when the fru it ie ripe in Canada. Bu t after the frosts of la st week the re’ will he few February strawberries, [f warm weather follows they may; be ripe In A rkansas in March, m Missouri in April.

The demand for holiday fruit made up some of che deficit created in the first foul weeks, and during Janua ry t h i ? market was good.

I t is not probable tha t any more obld weather will trouble us this year. Bu t heavy rains might delay' picking, and puff up and split the fruit. There remains the volume of the crop to discuss. Expert guessers oomo-close to the number of boxes, Those without experience a re al­ most always wide of the mark. Several interests make!’ estimates from time to time. This has been done in th e la s t ten. days. There is a difference of 5000 ears In the guesses. However, the railroads and the heaviest shippers nearly agree.

The fruit shipped from November l to about the end oi Janua ry usually is nut quite ma­ ture. Tl»eonly excuse for sending tills to market is th a t the people oi th e east demand it. I t is not fruit th a t 1 h notoriously unripe. I t has a high color, is of good size and mere* ly somewhat less sweet than when perfectly ripe* Those whose daily diet is so largely made up of vege­ tables out Of cellars and pits, who feed generously on buckwheat cakes and saucage, “ New England boiled dinners,” “ hoganil hominy” and other hearty foods have a keen tooth for oranges, even though a trifle more piquant than “our taste” and the citrus acid is good for limit health. But with tho advent of February California orange h are delicisus, by March th**,v he •ome sweeter and more so in April and May. Our fru it is always a little sharper in the Real than th a t from Florida, and is much prefem d afte r tho taste lias U h ' h acquired. The navels sent East are in the best condition. The c dor is high; tkefcizf s are the most popular; fh*< flavor is exec Bent; And 1 1©w igh t# indicates that there has h-en no pulling, hut tho pulp is it did. Th* market ha;' been good a t al* most all points. Friers have been somewhat better than the first three months of last year. The business depreMpiu which t'MV.o on as the season opened in UhW-was felt with ftfime severity in the orango market. Th© ©nie»mnptlou of fru it is about ganaral imw; but when the people a r « out of work they are out of Th* crop will be in the main di­ vided about a* la s t year, when ihe total shipments Were between 29,cw and 80,000 carload*. About the only difference will be th a t the pro­ portion of Valencias Increases steadily y e a r l y year, These will noth© shipped until about the time the navels are all out of tho way. They go to market between July 1 and November L some of them al­ ways lapping over into the next season. Respecfully, your friend, S. W. Smith. Wash Goods and Domestics Reduced.
