lO. MIDDLE FLORIDA HAMMOCK Bl-XT. 265 



ably between 1905 and 1912. With this Hmitation, or source of er- 

 ror, the leading crops seem to be as follows : Corn, sea-island cot- 

 ton, tobacco (mostly in Gadsden Co.), upland cotton, peanuts, sweel 

 potatoes, sugar cane, lettuce (Alachua Co.), oats, (grass) hay, field 

 peas (including hay thereof), cabbage (mostly in Alachua Co.), vel- 

 vet beans, cucumbers (Alachua Co.), watermelons, beans (mostly 

 in Alachua Co.), oranges (mostly in Alachua Co.), pecans, peaches, 

 English peas (Alachua Co.), tomatoes (Alachua Co.), squashes 

 (Alachua Co.), cantaloupes (mostly in Alachua Co.), grapes, beets 

 (Alachua Co.), Irish potatoes, peppers (Alachua Co.), figs, onions 

 (Alachua Co.), and grapefruit (Alachua Co.). It is evident from 

 this list that the middle division is mostly devoted to general farm- 

 ing, while in the eastern division, particularly in Alachua County, 

 tliere is much specialization in vegetables and citrous fruits, which 

 are mostly marketed in the North.
