The Very Small Margin of Profit In
Manufactures.

The Very Small Margin of Profit In
Manufactures.
In calico printing one-tenth of a cent
yard is fair profit. In paper manu-
facture three to five per cent. upon the
product will yield ten per cent. upon the
capital invested. In sugar refining
One-sixteenth of a cent profit upon
pound is more than satisfactory. In
making pianos the average wages Of
the operatives are high, as compared to
cotton and shoes, and the capital in
yolvcd comparatively small. Wages in
the piano factories Of New York and
Boston average nearly $50 a:week, taxi
ing the whole shop, but the profit upon
the product in good years runs as high
as Is per cent In the manufacture OF
locomotives the average wage is high,
no woman finding employment, while
in the manufacture Of small arms it is
correspondingly low, women being
largely employed. Reviewing the
whole field, it will he found that the
product of factories is constantly grow
ing in value and wages increasing, as com
pared to the capital involved. Some
economists assert that capitals share
of the profits is constantly decreasing,
while that of labor increases, but this
is still a mooted point. The difference
between the cost of manufacture and
the, retail selling price, or the
share falling to the middleman or
men, varies according to the class
Of product, the rule being that in
staple goods it is small, and grow
ing smaller every year, while with
fancy goods and what are known as
novelties it is large. Common heavy
cotton cloth. costing eight cents to
make, sells at retail for about nine cents;
fancy calicoes may sell at retail for
double what they cost to produce. In
sugar, half a cent a pound is the average
difference between cost and retail price.
Shoes costing two dollars to make, sell
at retail for three edollars.-Seribner's.

HORSEPOWER OF . Bicyciist.

A French scientist has recently made
some experiments which show the
amount of force developed by some of
our bicycle cracks during hard race.
American cyclists have maintained for
two minutes a speed to continue which
required the expenditure of energy rep
resenting two-thirds of one horse
power. For six seconds they were able
to exert the astonishing force Of ono
and q fourth horse power. This is
equivalent to raising weight Of one
hundred and eighty-eight pounds l
yard high in one second. Experiments
are also being made to determine the
force exerted by diferentsporta These
results will be of great use for training
and hygienic data. One of the discov-
cries made during the calculation Of
force exerted by bicyclists is that at
high speed the work Of bicyclist In
covering q specified distance Is as great
as that of q man running the same dis
tance. At moderate speed a runner
undergoes three times the labor Of .
bicyclist, but the higher the speed the
nearer are their exertious equaliaed, !

Beach Grass.

The beach grass is one of the most
wonderful of plants. There Is no other
plant outside of the cactus family that
thrives so on sand; planted deep in the
salt sands of the shore, the wind sweeps
the sand above and through it, and yet
it rises and sweeps its keen-pointed
blades over the packed surface, some
times three or four feet higher than it's
roots. The people OF the cape know it
as q device of nature to hold the shore
together. But even the beach grass,
sturdy and undiscourageable as it is,
needs sturdier backing. 1t wants the
hroad-rooted heath family behind it.,
and the trees that break the force of the
wind. A good while ago the planting
of beach grass on the cape between
Proyincetown and Truro saved what
threatened to be positive inroad Of
the Atlantic into Cape Cod bay. which
would have cut the peninsula in two
where its level is very low as afore-
said. This result was due to the habit
of this precious member OF the
gramineae of rising above obstacles.
Think of poor Provincetown as an
island and a doomed island, more
over = of Cape Cod bay as a
tov of the great tides of the Atlantic
of quiet Plymouth as recipient of
those tides-of all the other changes
that might be!-Springield Mass Re-
