a Suggestion To Fishermen,

So,important is the fishing industry
, OF Wakulla county, that we clip the fol.
flowing spleadid suggestion from the
Tallahasseean for the benefit Of our
Fishermen.
I Hundreds OF wagons, full OF pepole
from Georgia, go down to our Gulf
coast every autumn, Observer has
seen on the streets of Tallahassee as
many as eighty five Of these coast visit
ors in one day They goto the coast
for week or ten days outing, and
sometimes come from as high up as
Marietta, which Is some twenty miles
above Atlanta, The majority Of these
people don't ssatch fish; they come
down tosnioy, the sport Of being on the
Gulf coast; they perhaps in the ma
jority of Instances catch plenty of fish
to,e.t While at thS ycoast, but depend
fponfhe fisheries to supply the aver
:sge'cssasp!sst barrels of salt mullet aud
half .bprrel%f roe that they carry back
as a seuyenjr. of the Middle Florida
Gulf coast -. -
. Now this has been the practice Of our
Gulf coast Fisheries for half . century
or more But why do thep not try a
little progress, and put up these fish
like the fishermen of the great lakes,
in neat smoked packages Observer
has recently seen and sampled a speci.
men of mullet which in delicacy of
flavor compares most favorably with
the white fish of the great lakes, The
proper way to smoke these mullet is
first to treat them with solution of
pickle brine, after which they are
smoked with oak wood smoke, II prop

Lammas Day.

Today is Lammas day. Brand, in his
"Observations on Popular Antiquities, I"
published in 1777, mentions that it was
on this day still the custom in some
places in England for tenants to be bound
to bring in new wheat to the lord of the
manor on August /. Other writer's trace
the word to La-ith -mas pronounced La
ee-mas,) Druidic festival in which the
people made offerings of part of the pro-
duce of their fields in return for an
abundant harvest. The word "ithn
signifies all sorts of grain particularly
wheat, and ''mas" was used for fruit and
tree products of every kind, but especially
acorns, whence our present word mast.
Before Enclosures had become general
throughout England the householders of
many parishes were privileged to turn
their cattle into cultivated grass lands
after the hay harvest, and the time for
exercising the right was regulated by
Lammas day. The meadow subject to
this privilege were sometimes called
Lammasses.

PRESS CYCLE CLUB.
A Number of the Members Visit Portland
and Enjoy Clambake.

The Touring club of the Press Cycle
club of Boston arrived in the city by the
Boston steamer yesterday morning. They
had pleasant sail from the Hub and up
on their arrival took their wheels and
cycled up to the Congress Square hotel
where 40 of them sat down to breakfast.
1t was not a pleasant morning for
showers threatened. The party was not
deferred by the appearance of rain and
under the guidance Of Mr.. F. W. Ward
we'll took spin over to the Cape and had
a good old fashioned clambake.
AS the morning wore on the clouds
were dissipated and the sun shone forth
giving delightful day. The air was just
good enough to make wheeling most
agreeable, and the clambake was enjoyed
with all the zest that comes with youth.
good appetite and muscular exertion.
Some of the party did not go out of town
but stayed in the city and visited the re-
sorts in the city and vicinity, and some
went out to Old Orchard.
In the afternoon after the clambake the
steamer was taken for sail to the
islands, some going as far as Harpswell
and Orrs Island. At night a number took
the return boat to Boston.
Those who are going on the tour
through the state will start this morning
under charge of Secretary Pease. They
will go to Bath today.
Tuesday an excursion will be made by
steamer to Boothbay. Departure will be
made from Bath on Wednesday to Rock
land and Ellsworth from which point the
Maine Central will be taken for Mt.
Desert and Bar Harbor. After a morn
ing's fishing the party will embark on
Saturday afternoon on steamer Mt.
Desert for Rockland, the Boston & Ban
gor steamship line being taken from there
for Boston, arriving home about a. m.
on Sunday, August s.
