has more orange trees than any other 
county in the State; but that we do not 
depend today as we did of yore upon 
any one thing for our living and pros¬ 
perity, for we can show you some of the 
finest truck gardens you ever saw, not 
only in Sanford but in Orlando and Or¬ 
ange county. We hope and expect, by aid 
of the labors of your organization, to 
double and treble and vastly increase 
the product of those groves and of those 
gardens. 
Again we welcome you to Orlando, and 
I am sure, although Orlando is not a 
town of “gush,” although we do not 
boast nor claim that we have a boom, we 
make no great promises, but what we 
say, we mean, and what we do, we do 
with all our hearts, and in that spirit we 
welcome you to the city of Orlando.
