braces some forty or fifty varieties of

feature being gun battery constructed
entirely of ears OF corn. There are bombs
loaded with shell and mounted on gun
carriages; the shells Or bombs lying
about being some eighteen or twenty
inches in diameter. This agricultural az
tillery and ammunition is supposed to be
| the arms militant with which they pros
ecute their aggressive warfare. The mas

DeSOtO, one of the new counties, away
down in the Southern end of the PENN
sula, has very extensive display of
phosphates, over thirty specimens in
number, mainly, ii not entirely, from the
Pee 40 River. Supplemented by fossilized
teeth, jaw and body bones of the whole
mastodon, elephant, etc., all of which
give a vague idea, at least, of the curl
the ''frost line" moved down so low as her
northern boundary. The array of vege-
table productions is truly magnificent;
among these are splendid watermelons,
one of which weighs twenty eight pounds
all ripened in January and February
by outdoor culture. nearneighbor to
these is a sweet potato, weighing seven
and one-half pounds-the latter from
Grove City
This unrivaled exhibit of the produc-
lions of DeSoto county is in charge of
Mr.. John Cross, known to the editorial
fraternity as theprOprietor of the Orange
Grove, who, for the general welfare of
the State, is neglecting his extensive bus
mess interests in vegetable lands and Or
ange groves at home, to personally sup
erintend this exhibit-a sacrifice that the
public should, and perhaps do. properly
appreciate. Mr.. Cross has 1000 square
feet of space, yet wishes he had more. 1t
is such men as these, who energize and vi
talize the ExpOsitiOn-men who can talk
in an interesting manner all day, telling
the same thing over and over hundred
times with as much animation as if it
were entirely new and novel to them, that
give life and spirit to the Sub-Tropical.
Not merely this, but his presence there
emphasizes the need of more such men in
the various departments that must now
silently speak for themselves.
1t may be well to add that DeSoto
makes a special exhibition also of SUI
gar cane-some of the stalks being ten
to twelve feet high and some two and one
half inches or more through the stalk.
But the phosphates, as illustrated and
explained by Mr.. Cross, are he most in
teresting things there. DeSoto, by virtue
of this exhibit, new as she is, comes to the
front ranks at once.

Company sends elegant samples Of sugar
