Production of Phosphate Rock in
Florida During 1914.

Owing to the interruption of
European shipment the produc-
ton of phosphate rock in Florida
for the year 1914 shows decrease
over that of the preceding year.
The output for 1913 was 1854, 794
long tons, while during 1914 the
output, as reported by the produc-
ers, was 2,097, 1854 long tons, a de-
crease of 4S6,930 tons. The de-
crease occurred in both the land
pebble and the hard rock districts
the percentage of decrease, howev-
er, is greater for the hard rock
phosphate deposits. That the re-
duced output is due to the inter
ruption of foreign shipment is
shown by the fact that while the
export shows a marked decrease,
the amount OF phosphate consign-
ed for domestic shipments during
1914 is greater than during 1913
by about 2S,91S tons.
The total shipment of phosphate
rock for 1914 as reported by the
producers was 2,138,S91 long tons,
of which 1922 tons were land
pebble (including a small consign-
ment of river pebble), and 3O9,-
609 tons were hard rock phos-
phate. The river pebble included
in the shipments represents rock
on hand from previous years, as
no river pebble is being rrcd-ccd

I Remember

| remember, | remember the
house where | was born, the little
window where the sun came peep
ing in at morn. You'd hardly
know the old place now, for Dad
is up-to-date and the farm is scien-
tifc, from the back lot to the gate.
The house and barn are lighted
with bright acetyline, the engine
in the laundry is run by gasoline;
we have silos, we have autos, we
have dynamos and things, a tele-
phone for gossip and a phono-
graph that sings. The hired man
has left us-we miss his homely
face-a lot of college graduates
are working in his place. There s
an engineer and fireman, a chauf-
fer and a vet, 'lecrtician and me-
chanlc, On, the farm S run right,
you bet. The little window where
the sun came peeping in at morn
now brightens up a bath room
that cost Dad a car of corn. Our
milkmaid is pneumatic and She s
sanitary, too, but Dad gets fifteen
cents a quart for milk that once
brought two. Our cattle came
from Jersey and the hogs are all
Duroc, the sheep are Southdown
beauties and the chickens Ply
mouth Rock. To have the best Of
everything, that is our aim and
plan, for Dad not only farms it,
but he's business man.

between the states is still alive, at
the age of SO years, at Households,

The Farmers Inning

The foreigners have begun to
eat our corn. During the seven
months ending January, 1914, we
sent abroad 4,S67,615 bushels of
corn, value $3,636,697, and for a
similar period ending January,
1915, 15,773,629 bushels, valued at
$12, 3OS,174 The foreigner likes
our corn pretty nearly four times
as well as he used to.
We have the largest pile of corn
in the world, but much of it is GO
ing to travel abroad this season.
And we are going to ourselves eat
more of it that stays at home than
ever before.
1t is the good old American
farmer turn at the bat and he is
some fence-buster when he gets
an inning.

Discovering Corn Meal

The war in Europe is likely to
teach the Europeans the value of
corn meal as human food. The
demand for it has already boosted
the price of corn in the American
markets, and it is, likely to boost
still higher. This is unfortunate
for the domestic consumers Of corn
bread and boiled push, but there
will be compensatiOns. After the
was is over the Europeans who
have eaten corn will continue to
eat it, and the fields of waving
corn on the American farms will
be transformed into gold mines.
The yellow kernels will CLINT with
the real luster Of wealth. But ev-
en- though corn meal is dearer
than it was a few weeks ago,
it is still cheaper than wheat
flour. Necessity may teach some
Americans that they can reduce
the cost of living, even now, by
using more corn meal. And that
will be another form in which the
compensation will manifest itself.

This IL q story of Columbia university
at the time OF the abolition OF foot ball.
and dramatic description Of Coiumbia's
last gridiron contest furnishes one Of the
climaxes. The winning OF the regatta

which the freshmen ana sophomores con-
tend for honors.
