THE DAILY EXAMINER,

UnvusvaLiy warm weather, with cop ious rain, forcing veg-tation in fine style, has been succeeded here by chilly north- east, east, north and west winds. ‘ Here the coolness lias barely checked the growth and our meadows are beautifally green and very promising. But there has been a killing frost in the West, with snow to the depth of three to eleven inches. In all the Northern States and in Southern On tario a great deal of the fruit crop of the year has been destroyed. In many places, we are told, from five to ten degrees of frost were shown. Our advices from the Canadian Northwest, however, make no mention of the frost. Ik is reported that everything there promises well ; and upon the whole, the prospects of agriculture are good.

The arrival of the steamship Sunrise, from Liverpool to Messra. Peake Bros. & Co., is an event to be noted. If oats were higher in England or lower here, she would at once have returned with a full cargo, to the great advan:age of all con- cerned. As it is, we must wait for better times in the Mother Country. Oats are firm here at from 38 to 40 cents per bushel, and the English market will net at present justify the payment of such a price for shipment thither. It seems pro- bable, however, that a considerable por- tion of our surplus of oats wil! Sod a mar- ket in the neighboring provinces.

If the price of oats is low in England, the price of potatoes is low in the States, where potatoes are selling at as low a figure asin Toronto. New Brunswick Hebrons and Roses are quoted in Boston at from 50 to 55 cents, at which our merchants can- not afford to ship and pay freight and It is more and more evident that the United States are not to be depended on as a market for our surplus crop; and that our better way is to make the best of our own home markets.

Advices from Montreal] report that the cheese market continues dull and heavy in its tendency, and prices are difficult to quote. In fact, until the fall grass make is offered, there is hardly any possibility of fixing a price.

In this connection, we note that Profes- sor Robertson has been booming the pro- duct of Prince Edward Island. At the meeting of the Brockville Dairyman’s Board of Trade held a few days ago, the Professor delivered a lengthy and able

duty.

speech, in the course of which he referred to what had been doue in Prince Edward Island, in the way of fostering the cheese industry, and of which some Ontario dairymen do not approve :

“The people of Prince Edward Island he said were industrious, frugal, intelli- gent, steady and self reliant. How much benefit had they received from the deepen- ing of the St. Lawrence river. None, although they bad contributed their share towards the work. Had they not there- fore a right to get heip along their own line, that of agriculture. In 1892 there were no cheese factories on the Island. There had been one but it failed. In that year the people of New Perth built a factory, and the Government loaned the machinery. They made the cheese at 23 cents per lb. The Government shipped them to England where they sold at he highest price on the Lon- don market. These were the only cheese ever consigned by the government from that island; the rest had been sold to Canadian merchants. In 1893 there were eleven factories, and the product was worth $48,000. Last year there were ship- ped from the island, cheese worth $90,200. The duties on imported goods bought with that extra money would more than recou the government for what had been ong ed, So what had Ontario people to com- plain of, he then referred to a speech made by Mr Everetts at Mallorytown, which was full of inacurracies and misrepresentation and gave him a dressing down that he will not forget fora while. The Prince Ed- ward Island cheese was a credit to the country. and was acknowledged by all to be very fine. They all knew of the Hon. W. D. Hoard, of Wisconsin. Ina _ recent issue of his paper, “The Dairyman” he had this to say about it.

“T want to tell you about a sittle device I saw there (in P. E. Island). They make the finest cheese there that I ever saw. I visited something like fifteen or twenty factories. I rode by carriage almost the length of Prince Edward Island, which is 120 miles long. I visited factory after factory with Mr. D. M. MePherson and Prof. Robertson, and you will never know thata]] the cheese was not made by one man, on account of its uniformity. Every single cheese maker had been trained to a given standard, and thus the result was, factories al] being constructed alike, that the goods were remarkably fine and of great uniformity.”

Continuing Professor Robertson said that he thought there was no reason for the gloomy outlook of the market. He accounted for the low price of cheese last year owing to cheap mvzat, the great strikes among the classes who consume cheese and the very large make of cheese in Great Britain. England, he said, manufactured 200 Ibs of cheese for every 100 lbs. she imported. Even with all these drawbacks Canada received a good average price for cheese. The outlook for this year was in his estimation exceed- ingly bright. Up to the end of March, the

cattle shortage in Chicago and St. Louis included no less than 200, 700 head, which was a_ hopeful indication for cheese. Again, the

eorn crop in the Western States last sum- mer was a complete fa‘lure, therefore the cattle were ali killed of and it would be sometime before the herds would assume former proportions. Beef must necessar- ily be dear. Trade in Great Britain is brighter, shipbuilding is brisker, coal trade is healthier, cotton is going up and bread is cheap. Men in these occupations live principally on bread and cheese. He said if cheese sold on Canadian markets at 8 and $ cents per pound Sit would go into consumption fast in Great Britain at six- pence per pound. The professor continu- ing argued that the past reputation of Can- adian cheese ought to help its sale this year. On the whole, he considered the outlook brighter and better now than at the same period last year fur the reasons above stated.

The same meeting was addressed by Mr. Hodgson, of Montreal, “Referring to the Prince Edward Island cheese, he said

THE GOOD THAT ONIONS DO.

They Purify the Blood, Are Useful for Croup and Even Cure an Ear Ache.

@ne of the healthiest vegetables, if not the healthiest, grown is the onion; yet, strange to say, but few people use it as liberally as they should. Boiled onions used frequently in a family of children will ward off many of the diseases to which the little ones are subject. The principal objection to the promiscuous use of this vegetable is that the odor exhaled after eating is so offensive. A cup of strong coffee taken immediately after eating is claimed to be excellent in coun- leracting this effect. Although for a day or so after eating onions the breath may Lave a disagreeable odor, yet after this time it will be much sweeter than before.

For croup onion poultices are used with fuccess, providing the child is kept out of draughts and a sudden chill avoided. The poultices arc made by warming the onions in goose oil until soft, then putting them on the child’s feet and chest as hot as they can be borne. Except in yery obstinate cases, When taken in time, the croup readily yields to onions. This, although an old-fashioned remedy, is a good one, as any mother who has brought up a family of children can attest.

Onions are excellent blood purifiers, and for eradicating boils or any of the blood humors are very efficacious. They are good for the complexion, and a friend who has a wonderfully clear, fine complexion, at- tributes it to the liberal use of onions as a food.

People cuffering from nervous troubles are much benefitea by using these vege- tables frequently, either cooked or raw. When troubled with a hard cough if a raw onion is eaten the phlegm will loosen al- most immediately and can be removed with very little effort. Those troubled with wakefulness may insure a good night’s rest often if, just before retiring, they eat a raw onion.

There are few aches to which children are subject as hard to bear and as painful as earache. One of the best remedies we Know is to take out the heart of an onion (a red onion is the best if it can be had, although, lacking this kind, any other can be used) and roast it. When soft put it into the affected ear as hot as it can be borne. Unless the cause is deeper than ordinarily the pain will cease in a very short time and will not return.

A cough syrup in which onions form an important part is made by taking one cup of vinegar, one cup of treacle and one-half cup of cut-up onions. Put on the stove and simmer about half an hour, or until the onions are soft. Then remove and strain, Take a teaspoonful of this frequently when troubled with a cough, and unless very deep seated the cough will not last long.

White stockings and Black.

Fifty years ago the female domestic servant could rarely afford to wear, save on high days or holidays, a pair of white stockings; she either knitted coarse ribbed blue worsted stockings for herself, or she bought black stockings. Those sable hose, freqently with an orifice in one heel, were the distinguishing badge of the lodging-house ‘‘slavey;’’ but about twenty years ago a remarkable sumptuary change came over the upper and lower sections of English female society. White stockings, save for balls, were suddenly. repudiated, and black silk hose for ladies and children became the almost universal wear. The French are extremely fond of asserting that they set the fashions to the world at large. I contend that, in a vast number of instances, we haye prescribed patterns to the French. And I was amused lately at reading, in the Paris Figaro, an article vehemently protesting against the partonage by French ladiess of the hideous mode Britannique of les bas noirs.—G. A. Sala, in London Tele- graph.

4n Ancient Pie, 7

Let us not forget that to-day is the an- niversary of the death of Sir Theodore Mayerne, physician of James I. and Charles I. He amassed a prodigious deal of wealth and wrote the great cook book of the seventeenth century. Here is his recipe for ‘‘A City of London Pie:’’ “Take eight marrow bones, eighteen sparrows, one pound of potatoes, a quarter of a pound of eringoes, two ounces of let- tuce stalks, forty chestnuts, half a pound of dates, 8 peck of oysters, a quarter of a pound of preserved citron, three arti- chokes, twelve eggs, two sliced lemons, a handful of picked barberries, a quarter of an ounce of whole pepper, half an ounce of sliced nutmeg, half an ounce of whole cinnamon, a quarter of an ounce of whole cloves, halfan ounce of mace, anda quarter of a pound of currants. Liquor when it is baked, with white wine, butter and sugar.’’—Boston Journal.

Diplomatic Bismarck,

One day the Austrian Ambassador to the Federa! Diet, Count Rechberg, re- ceived a dispatch instructing him to vote with Prussia for a certain important measure, accompanied with a confidential letter directing him to induce the re- presentatives of the other German States to vote against the measure and thus de- feat it. In his haste he handed the wrong paper to Bismarck, who read and re- turned it with the remark: ‘‘There must be some mistake here.’’ Rechberg saw, his blunder, and grew pale and excited, “Don't be disturbed,’’ said Bismarck i} ‘‘you did not in*end to give me this docu- ment, and therefore you have not given it to me, and I am wholly ignorant of its contents.’’ In fact, he made no mention of it in his official reports, and thus won Rechberg’s gratitude, beside having him henceforth ‘‘on the hip.’’—San Frencisco Argonaut.

They Could Not Land,

A real estate man had been trying to sell a suburban lot by all sorts of repre- sentations as to location, climate, view, seil, ete., and a friend listened with astorisl ment at the eloquent description of beautics which his untrained eye had failed to observe.

“*Say. what did you want to lie to that fellow like that for?'’ he asked after the prospective purchaser bad departed.

““Why, I didn’t lie to him.”

“*Yes, you did. You told him that there wasn't a mosquite on the place, and I saw great swarms of them buzzing around when I was there.”’

**Yes, but that’s all they were doing— buzzing around. I forgot to tell him that it was so windy there that the mosquitoes couldn’t make a landing.’’—San Fran- cisco Post.

A Weak Quality of Rum,

**T don't see,’ said the Justice, this man should be prosecuted.’’

‘‘For false pretenses, Your Honor,”’ replied the lawyer. ‘‘He sold the Major a whole barrel of whisky, and though he has been drinking steadily from it for three weeks he ain’t drunk yet!’’—At-
