The Manufacturer Record publishes
full history of the development of the
phosphate mining interests of Florida
and South Carolina. Since 1889, when
one company commenced to mine phos-
phate rock in Florida on small scale,
this industry has developed with wonder
full rapidity, and the investments in
phosphate lands, have been on an enor-
nous scale. The Manufdcturers' Recora's
list of companies now operating there
shows that over $12, 900, 900 has been in
vested within two years, and that these
companies now have daily capacity of
OF 1000 tons of phosphate rock which
will be increased shortly to 5000 tons by
the completion of mining plants now
under construction. In addition to these
companies fifty-one others, with an ag-
gregate capital stock of over $21 900, 600,
have been incorporated to develop phos
phate lands, but are not yet at work. In
South Carolina there are twenty-eight
phosphate mining companies, with an
aggregate capital of $4, $40, 900, and the
production last year was 537, ,149 tons.
Tbere are also eighteen fertilizer manu-
featuring companies in that State, hav.
ir-- capital Of nearly S., 100000.

THE PLowMAN.
When the tired plowman his plow-stocl

When the tired plowman his plow-stock
leaves
In the growing corn, as the sun goes down,
And the sky is as rich as cleaners sheaves
In flowers of crimson and purple and
brown,
I will wait in the rare and wondrous ewes
And watch, as the loom of the sunset weaves
Its fabric of gold over country and town.
And think of the springs that have come
and gone
Since we saw the shuttle across the blue
That wrought in colors of dusk and dawn,
On the breath of the south wind over the
lawn,
And the evening shadows were longer
drawn,
And the sun was low, and the stars were
few.
And youth was fair in the lives we led,
Its memories linger in this latter spring,
And live in the flowers the books we read,
The kiss she gave me in the grapevine
swing,
LII WoruS anu "oths, W oe hiieu anu leu
On the wasted honey and wasted bread,
And sung in the songs she used to sing.
Though thelily and rose have lost their leaves
In the ashes of summers of long ago,
They come, through the rare and wondrous
ewes,
In the crop of love we used to sow,
AS rich as the garlands the sunset weaves
When the tired plowman his labor leaves
In the fragrant corn, and the sun is low.

TODAY.

BE swift to love your own, dears,
Your own who need you so;
Say to the speeding hour, dears,
II will not let thee go
Except thou give blessings"
Force it to bide and stay;
Love has no sure tomorrow,
1t only has to-day.
Oh, hasten to be kind, dears,
Before the time shall come
When you are left behind, dears.
In an ali-ionely home;
Before in late contrition
Vainly you weep and pray;
Love has no sure tomorrow,
1t only has to-day
Swifter than sun and shade, dears,
Move the fleet W; .ss of pain;
The chance we have i day, dears.
May never come again.
Joyis tickle rover:
He brooketh not delay,
Love has no sure tomorrow.
1t only has to-day.
Too late to plead OF grieve, dears,
Too late to kiss or sigh,
When death has laid his seal, dears,
On the cold lip and eye,
Too late our gifts to lavish
Upon the burial clay;
Love has no sure tomorrow,
1t only has to-day.
-Congre1dtiOndlist.

Biggest Fresh Water Fish.

The biggest of fresh water fishes, the
"arapaima," of the Amazon, in South
America, which grows to six feet in
length, has teeth on his tongue, so that
the latter resembles the file and is used
as such. Some kinds of trout also have
the same popularity. Fishes that swal-
low their prey entire have their teeth SO
supported on flexible bases as to bend
backward, but not forward, in order that
their victims shall not escape after they
have been seized. Boston Cultiudtor.

A "Punkin He.d.o

New Haven, Conn, is celebrated for hav-
ing given the name of ''Pupkin Head" tc
all New Englanders. 1t originated from
the Blue laws, which enjoined every male
TO have his hair cut round by cap. When
caps were not to be had they substituted
the hard shell of ''punkin," which, being
put on the head every Saturday, all hair
which protruded was clipped close to the
shells edge. Peters, in has History of
Connecticut" says:
What religious virtue was supposed to
be derived from the custom, know not:
but there is much prudence "a it. First, it
prevents the hair from snarling: second.
it saves the use of combs: third, It can
not incommode the eyes hy falling over
