The company sold insurance and later invested in storage facilities and fertilizer sales. Chase & Company was known mainly for its agricultural interests and maintained a series of citrus groves throughout Central Florida. The company was based out of Sanford and became one of the city's largest employers into the early twentieth century. By 1886, the Chase brothers purchased several citrus groves to expand their business, including Isleworth Grove in Windermere, Florida. Isleworth Grove covered a total of 1,300 acres along the Butler Chain of Lakes. Between 1894 and 1895, Central Florida was hit by several freezes and most of the citrus crop was destroyed. Chase & Company did not grow citrus crops again until 1904 when Joshua came back from an extended stay in California. Between 1894 and 1900, different types of pesticide equipment was created, including equipment driven by steam, machines, and horses.Randall Chase joined in the family business soon after his brother, Sydney Chase, Jr., did in 1922. Randall became the president of Chase & Company from 1948-1965. The Isleworth property stayed in the Chase family until 1984 when Franklin Chase, the son of Sydney Chase, sold the property to famed golfer Arnold Palmer.

Upon my visit there this morning, Magunson and Hutchinson estimated the balance of the crop still to go as follows: Mid-season oranges 11 cars grapefruit 10 cars Valencias 50 cars There was a regular gale blowing and the sharp sand was cutting the tender growth on the trees, both young and old. It was especially severe on the new growth of trees recently planted. Your instructions about irrigation are being carried out and the tractors were active. Crowell, Smith and Hutchinson are instructed to step on the picking and shipping of the balance of the mid-season oranges. The fruit is dead ripe and is not only going off in appearance but is also falling off. The Pineapples on the block near the packing house which are usually of splendid quality, are very inferior. Hutchinson is instructed to load in bulk all of the Coat of Arms grade. He is also instructed to include in the bulk car, any low and off grade grapefruit. It will pay us better to make up mixed cars of bulk oranges and grapefruit than to pack the Coat of Arms grade at the prices now ruling. The inspector at the house expressed the opinion that there was much less fruit in the State than estimated by the Clearing House. He could not understand how it was possible for there to be 30,000 cars still to be shipped. He did not know where it was. Very truly yours, JCC:AF.
