We commend tho worthy example of !
our neighboring town to th s and all
other fruit growing localities in this ■
county, and believe that this may be­
come one of the most valuable and im­
portant of our industries. Our fruit
product cannot be excelled by any
county on the coast, for size aud flavor,
and we should certainly avail ourselves
of the means to turn our hitherto value-1
less fruit crops to some account. From j
all parts of the country we bear of the i
financial success ot Alden preserving
factories, and ia every quarter of thoj
eastern and western States, aud even
from Europe, their product is iu extra;
ordinary demand, at prices more than
treble that of ordinary dried fruit. It
is too soon to determine whether the
company in Jacksonville wiil make a
profit on their operations this Fall ;
they are laboring under tho evident
disadvantage of having only one evap­
orator, while much of the same labor
would work two or even three, but we
give them full credit for their enter
prise in sta ting this new and impor
taut industry.
