Citrus Orchards. The orange crops this year are rather poor, but I think 

 the growers who have a Httle fruit for export might with advantage try the 

 Canadian and American markets, as fruit was commanding very high prices 

 during mv visit two seasons ago, and I am told that prices are again good this 

 year ; but there would be no use in sending anything there but absolutely 

 clean fruit. Both lemons and oranges are in good demand there during the 

 months of Jul}-, August, and September.
