TIE 0052' O .O UNDING AN ORANGE
G ROV E.
Future-Millions in Store for the Land
of Flowers--Great Progress in a new
Industry.
Gbrrespondence of the Detroit Aree Press.
It requires very little money to
set one's self up in Florida. Let
us assume that a man with family
has $2,000. He is absolutely In-.
dependent. For $100 he can buy
100 acres of good land. For an
additional $100 he can clear up
and fence such as he needs. His
orange grove will not need fencing.
A mule and farm implements will
cost $250. A house and outbuild
ings will cost $400. Cheap furni
ture can be had for $100. He will
thus have expended '$950. He
should then buy 400 orange trees
four years old ; these would cost
him $1 a piece, and ten cents each
to set them out. He will then have
his home, 100 acres of land, partial,
ly cleared and fenced, a mule and
farming implements, and a good
young orange grove. All this will
here cost him $1,890. He will have
$600 left with which to cover all
contingencies until his grove gets!
to bearing. He can then go to
work to support himself for four
years. He will find that he has
the richest sort of farming lan d.!
Good crops can be grown with
surprising ease. He can raise 200
bushels of sweet potatoes to the
acre. Sugar cane grows as well as
it does in Cuba, and with careful
farming can be made to clear $100
to the acre and upwards. If he is
near a city, a navigable river, or a
railroad, he can mke truck farming
very profitable. He can raise two
crops of vegetables every year. He
will find that the lakes swarm with
fish and duck, and the w6dds
abound with game. If he has
ordinary industry he can not only
support himself, but can lay up a
little money while he is waiting.
WHERE THE PROFIT COMES IN.
In the third year after his grove
of four-year old trees has been set
out lie will get a few oranges,
possibly $100 worth. The fourth
year will give him an average of 100
oranges to the tree or 40,000 to the
grove. Then he can sell at say $1.50
per hundred or six $600 for the
crop. In the fifth and sixth years
he will have 500 or 800 to the tree,
or 200,000 to 250,000 oranges.
These be can sell at $1.50 per hun
dred, or $3,000 to $8,500 for the
crop. This income will go up to
$5.000, with an annual cost of $800
to $600. If he is wise he will have
added a certain number of trees to
his grove every year, so that he
will have new trees coming into
bearing every season.
Let us supp:>se, however, that a
man comes to Florida with only
$250 in his pocket. That is, he has
this sum in his pocket when he
reaches his destination. He must,
of course, begin on an humble scale.
In the first place, lie pays nothing
for his land, entering a homestead.
He need not even pay the entry
fee. For $25 he can put up a good;
log house. He might buy 200.
seedlings at twenty cents each, and
have them set out. The whole cost'
will be *50. He can bire a mule,
and for $20 buy all the necessary
implements. He will then have
spent $100. He must clear his
land as he needs it himself, or he
can hire some help. If he finds
that he can succeed in digging a
living out of the ground, he might
invest $50 of his remaining *150 in
fifty four-year old trees, for of
course it is essential to get money
from his grove as soon as possible.
In four years he will begin to get
help from his grove, anS i seVen
years it will more thaui sppot hirm.
Of course, he will ha*e added^to It
from year to year, and in 'teffegra
he may be aeounted' fairly hide

himse,lf and his family comfortably
during the six years, and now is a
rich man. He has 480 trees, of
these 80 bore 400 oranges, each the
sixth year, and 180 trees 100 each; in
all 45,000 oranges, for which he
received $700. These trees bore
nearly twice as much the next year,
and 100 new trees came in. He was
taxed for $10,800 in the sixth. year
after he had settled, and had money
in pocket and a good home. As
a sample of his crops, I may mention
that he took 960 bushels of sweet
potatoes out of a three-acre field in
one year.
Mr. Steller, a harness,maker, .so
broken down with consumption that
he .was utterly worthless in his
trade, came to Florida and settled
in Halifax county, four years before
the time at which the estimate quoted
was made. He had four in famil
and $60 in cash in his pocket. He
supported his family the first year
by spending $40 of his capital. The
secoud year he cleared $70 in cash,
and in the third year $150. He put
out no orange trees the first year,
but planted several hundred seed
lings. The second year he put out
fifty four-year old trees, and the
next year 150. He had at the end
of the fourth year a grove of seed
lings, some 600, worth the next
spring $1 a piece, and fifty tress
that would commence bearing the
next spring and 150 that would
commence the year after. He, re
fused in the fourth year $5,000 in
cash for the place he had entered as
a homestead, and which had cost
him nothing. By this time he is
doubtless independently comforta.
ble. He has - only thirteen acres
under cultivation.
Another case is furnished by three
brothers and a sister named Batram.
They seem to have been in some
manner proteges of Mrs. Harriet
Boocher Stowo. They had no
money when they-came to Florida,
but cleared a few acres and went to
work. They determined to raise
vegetables for Jacksonville, and the
Northern markets. They cleared a
few acres. They had, when they
furnihed the estimate I saw, ten
acres under cultivati.oiifnnd: fence
They had a fine grore of 8.00 treev
just beginning to fear. .They a
200 trees of other fruits sot'OUt and
bananas, figs pineapples and grapes
in large quantities. They had a,
nursery of 5,000 :seedlings
then three years old,
lacking only a fe& months of being
worth $1 each for transplanting.
They had built a large house, and
under the supervision of their sister
it was filled with boarders- every
winter. Their place would readily
command $25,000 and is worth'aoi..
ble that to them.
A TIMELY DOSE OF SClIENcK's Man.
drake Pills is sure to prevent an
attack of billiousness, when a short
neglect of the warning symptoms
may develop a serious case of fever,
either billions, intermittent, or
typhoid.
Schenck's Mandrake Pills remove
all causes of biliousness, prormitly
start the secretions of the livex, and
give a healthy tone to the entire
system. It is no ordiniary discovery
in medical science to have fo d a
harmless cure for this stubborn
complaint, which accomplishes all
the results heretofore prodneed by
a free use of calomel, a mineral
justly dreaded by mankind, and
acknowledged to be destructive in
the extreme to the huma~n sysitem,
That the properties of certain vege.,
tables comprise all the virges of
calomel without its inijuriu quali.,
ties, is ho6w an admitted, fact, ren
dered indisputabl~e by scientifle tests,
Those whMtl tio he Meandraike Pillp
will be fully.satisfied. thlat the,best
medicines ar&t those ,provi'ded by
nature in the cbdmiou herbs) and
