ADVANTAGES OF FOREST SHELTER. 59 



In sections where the frost does not fall so heav- 

 ily these squares for the orange may be greatly en- 

 larged. But for the northern tier of counties in 

 this State, where there may not be sufficient water 

 protection, the dimensions given are large enough. 



With such a system as the above no man in Flor- 

 ida who has the soil and the timber need hesitate to 

 plant largely of this valuable fruit, both for himself 

 and for market. 



In the cut below, the dark lines represent the 

 forest which has not been cut away ; the white spaces 

 represent the spaces cleared for orange trees.
