L. JOYNER. The Tobacco Growers and Dealers Conveution which met at Ocala, Fla., January 12, 1897, was an important gathering in more than one particular, Very few, if any, of the delegates out- side the State of Florida had any con- ception of the objects of the meeting when they went into convention. Che delegates were appointed by the Gov.. ernors of the various states by request of the Governor of Florida to attend a convention of tobacco growers and dealers at Ocala, Jan. 12th, and prompt- ly at 12 o’clock on that date the President of the Board of Trade of Ocala, Mr. F. A, Tegue, called the vonvention to order. After reading the call for convention “by the Governor, be stated that the objects ot the convention was to induce immigration to Florida and interest the people of the State in growing cigar _tobuvco. He then introduced Col. W. “D. Chipley, of Pensacola, as temporary + Col.

He said to the delegates d themselves together and from | tobacco fields and take up their sword for their country, and the strong demand tor Cuban tobacco had caused experiments to be made with it in Florida which in every case has proven highly successsful. Thus, said he Cubz’s misfortune is Florida’s oppor- tunity. : After him came the Mayor’s address and visitors to the Convention that the latch string to the door of Ocala’s hospitality hung at the boundary lines of Florida, and on the part ot the citizens of Ocala he extended one and alla most cheerful and hearttelt wel- come. creation) could be sunk and you would never know it was there except for the fine wooden nut megs that might be} seen floating around the top.” After this the parmanent organiza- tion was effected anda committee on work of the convention. The main work consisted in discus— sions by delegates mainly from different sections of Florida on the cigar tobacco industry uf the State. Prior to the civil war tobacco was one of the leading monetary crops of middle Florida, but for some cause its culture never spread and while since that time in different sections ot the State small crops of it have been grown not until the last few years has much attention been given it. Two causes | have been potent in leading to the present boom in the tobacco industry. The severe freeze of 1894-95 almost literally destroyed the orange industry which at that time had assumed enor- mous proportions and Gost the orange growers, accoraing to good authority, between five and six million dollars. Discouraged and disheartened at their almost destitute condition they began to look for other resources from which to make a support. About this time the cruel ravages of the Cuban war had driven many of the Cuban tobacco planters from their firms, thus very materially decreasing the production of Cuban tobacco. A few prominent tobacco planters not caring to participate in the war came over to Florida to experiment in Cuban tobacco. The result of their trials have been highly satisfactory and during last year there were a number of cro.s planted in different sections of the State which were sold at very satisfactory prices, even under the dis- advantage of the first year’s experiment. These have induced numbers of others tv engage in tobacco culture this year and nw doubt the industry will prove a piotivable and permane. one as the terruory is so smail in which tobacco is grown that there is no danger in’ over stocking the market, (TO BE CONTINUED.) nt, it was a blessing in disguise COTTON. * Dr. Jenkins, vice Director ot the Good Middling 7h Connecticut experiment station re-} Middling 61 sponded in behalf of the visiting dele-| Low Middling 64 gates.
