Crop and Market Notes— Continuecl. 
of the sailing vessel at the comparatively low rate 
of 10s 6d per ton of 40 cnbic feet. From the fact 
that the vessel Is not to load until August, the Infer¬ 
ence Is that she will carry new-crop hay. 
The latest estimates of the peach crop of the Dela¬ 
ware Peninsula place It at 5,600,000 baskets. This Is 
nearly twice the number shipped during the great 
peach year of 1891, the number of baskets then reach¬ 
ing 3,000,000 Peaches were cheap then, and are 
likely to be still cheaper this year, as reports from 
all peach growing sections denote a heavy yield. It 
stands growers In hand to assort carefully, and send 
only the best fruit to market, as In times of such 
plenty. Inferior fruit Is entirely unsalable. 
Mr. E. L. Goodsell announces that the first direct 
steamer from Florida to England with a cargo of 
Florida oranges will load In Fernandlna about No¬ 
vember 1, to be followed by a second steamer about 
November 15, provided he Is sufficiently supported 
by the growers. He also states It as his Intention 
this season to materially better the steamer and the 
details of the loading of the vessel, and also to have 
the proceeds of the sales in the hands of the ship¬ 
pers of lots of 100 boxes and over not later than 
three days after the fruit has been sold In England. 
It Is alto his Intention to build a large packing house 
in Jacksonville, and he desires to obtain the opinions 
of growers of Florida oranges as to the advisability 
of doing this.

To Get the Most Cream.—W hich of all the dif¬ 
ferent methods now In vogue, in your opinion, Is the 
best for setting milk in order to get the most cream ?

Axs.—The separator Is undoubtedly the best. See 
“Separator vs. Creamery," under “We Want to 
Know." page 437 of The R. N.-Y 
Killing a Wart.—I have a valuable colt that has 
a wart on the side of Its leg; It has been coming on 
for about three months, and is now about half as 
large as a hen’s egg. How can I take it off ? h. s s. 
Ans.—T ie a thread tightly around It close to the 
leg, tightening It from time to time. Or It may be 
removed with a sharp pair of scissors, and the part 
burned slightly with lunar caustic, butter of anti 
mony, or chloride of zinc. 
Cultivating Cabbages. —A neighbor says that 
cabbages should grow In solid ground, that the earth 
should not be loosened up around them. I work the 
earth up deep and loose around the plants, and keep 
It so until the leaves cover the ground so that I can¬ 
not do so: then I keep the middle space worked deep 
and loose. Which Is best ? What Is better ? I have 
raised cabbages on sed ground, which weighed 25 
pounds, without extra fertilizers or care. h. 
Ans.—D oes your nelg bor raise better cabbages 
than you do? If so, better follow his advice; If not, 
stick to your own method. Your way can’t be a fail¬ 
ure If you get cabbages to the weight mentioned 
without extra fertilizers or labor. As a general 
thing, we prefer shallow but frequent cultivation. 
No plant should have Its feeding roots cut off. We 
know of no obje.tlon to the deep cultivation, pro¬ 
vided this Is not done. 
Bags for Grapes. —Where can I get sacks to sack 
up grapes ? I have tried paper and don’t like them. 
Are there any better ones made that can be put on 
the bunches easily ? f. m. r. 
Ans.—W o don’t know of any better sacks than the 
common paper ones, and these may be purchased of 
any grocer. If a trial of cloth sacks is desired, 
small ones such as are used for salt may be used, or 
the material may be purchased and the sacks made 
at home. We much doubt whether any will be found 
better than the common paper ones.
