Johns river, should the state set aside
suitable place for that purpose.
las it is" says the honorary fish
commissioner, there is no official au-
thorized to act for the state either to
receive the annual quota of fish which
by right 1t should receive equally with
other states. or to consult with any de-
gree of authority in this important
matter. Efforts are now being made,
as in years past, to have these bills die
on the calendar, whereby those now in
possession of these fishing grounds
may retain them at the expense of the
state and her people.
THE waters of Mosquito Lagoon in
Volusia and Brevard counties is the
subject Of another bill, setting aside
that and the Halifax river as a reser-
walton for the propagation Of mullet.
Seines, gill nets and stop nets are pro-
hibited by existing laws, which as yet
been enforced. This bill is being an
tagonized by those whose self assumed
interests will be interfered with. This
reservation and the waters of the At
lantic ocean adjacent to New Smyrna
inlet are the only spawning grounds
for mullet on the Atlantic coast of
Florida, but there are many on the
waters of the gulf coast. Four years
ago the United States steamer Fish
Hawk was located near New Smyrna
inlet for sixty days endeavoring to
propagate young mullet, afterward re-
moving to the st. Johns river in the
vicinity of the reservation at the point
above mentioned, but being delayed by
the antagonistic action of the legtsla-
lature, Influenced by the fishing in
terests, and the vessel was removed
elsewhere.
The shad producing resources of
Florida, if properly fostered, are sec
ond to those of no other state or ma
ton known to civilization. This fact
is recognized by the United States bu-
reau of fisheries and the administra-
tive departments of the state of Flor
ida.
st have made persistent effort since
1898 to get such information concern
ing the value of these fisheries before
the people, and have been authorized
to proceed with this work by commits
sion from the several governors since
that time. I trust that my efforts win
bear fruit in time and believe that

In the war of independence of 1916 the
country was so desolatedthat the mines
of Cosuuez and Somondoco were entire
lost. A Colombian named Francisco
Restrep, guided by a few hints given
in ancient Spanish parchment maps,
and with little or no knowledge of geo
logy or emeralds, undertook the search
for the lost emerald mines. In 1896 he
found traces of ancient workings of the
lost mines. These mines are Situated
on a ridge of the great eastern range
of the Andes, at an elevation of about
5000 feet above sea level. The great
open cuts and. tunnels were scattered
over an area 6 miles long and 3 miles
wide.
1t is worthy of note that no particu-
Tar section of the United States has a
monopoly of precious stone deposits;
for instance, turquoise have been found
both in Virginia and in Nevada, sap
phires in Indiana and Montana, and
topaz in Texas, Colorado and Califor-
MIA.

PRECIOUS STONES.
Gems Of All Kinds from Diamonds to
Agates Found in United States.

1t may perhaps be surprising to many
people to learn that, the United States
produces almost every variety of preci-
GUS stone-from diamonds down. The
precious stones produced in this country
last year had a value of 1926, CSC,
against 1884, 989 in, 1909, according TO
an advance chapter from Mineral
Resources of the United States" on the
production of gems and precious stones
in 1910, by Douglas B. Sterrett, just
published by the United States Geolo-
gical Survey. The large decrease in
the output of a few of the more i'm
portant gem minerals-tourmaline,
turquoise, ~chrysoprase, %etc.-says Mr..
Sterrett, readily accounted for the fall
in the value of production. AS an in
stance of this decrease in production,
about 8j1-2 tons of rough turquoise
were produced in 1910 as compared with
more than II tons in 1909.
All the diamonds produced in this
country in 1910 came from Arkansas
and California, the output of Arkan. a
amounting to about 200 stones. Sew
eral diamonds were found in Califor-
MIA last year, enc of (which weighs
about half a carat and another between
ga and 2 csra's. The latter is 9
brilliant, clear, fawless stone, with &
tinge of yellow.
Colorado yields some very pretty
agates and some are being successfully
handled in the tourist trade, but
number of these stones sold each yea.
at the summer resorts of the state ar,
imported from Germany, where the.
have been polished. Others are nativ
stones polished abroad, although som,

In Montana a sapphire weighing owe

LITTLE BOY AND HIS DREAM.

The little boy smiled in his sleep that
night, ~
AS he wandered to Twilight Town;
And his face lit ut with a heavenly
81, fight
Through the shadows that drifted
down; !
But he woke next morning with tear
stained eye y
In the light of the gray dawn's
CLEAN, y.
And out of the stiffness we heard him
cry,
give lost my dream-my dream"
And he told us then, in his childish
way,
Of the wonderful dream he'd known;
He had wandered away from the land
of play
To the distant Land of the Crown;
He had won his share of the fame and
fight
In the struggle and toll of men;
And he .sobbed and sighed in the break
ing light,
az want my dream again"
AS the years passed by, the little boy
grew
Till he came to the Land of the
Grown;
And the dream of his early youth came
true,
The dream that he thought had flown
Yet once again he smiled in his sleep
When those neal by might have heart
him weep,
81 want my dream-my dream!'
For he dreamed of the Yesterdays o.
Youth,
And the smile on a mothers face.
