companies.

Again, the total premiums aid to th various companies doing business in Canada from 1869 to 1003 inclusive

amounted to $188,455,850, and the losses paid during the some time amounted ‘.0 $l26,205,(i‘l8, the premiums thus ex~ ceeding the losses by over 6*! millions. Ii. round ilgures during the thirty-four

years the insured persons paid thc companies 50 per cent more than they received back.

Thus whether we take the figures for

one year or for a generation past, it would seem to the casual observer that

fire insurance ought to have been fairly profitable.

The great bulk of fire insurance busi-

ness done in Canada~say two thirds-is effected by British companies, while the

business nf Canadian companies is ap- proximately twice as great as that

done by American companies. The Canadian companies appear to have paid 58.18 per cent. of their

premiums in losses, while the general expenses were 33.70 per cent and the

dividends to stockholders were 2.68 per cent of the premiums received. In the

British companies the general expenses were 20.49 and in the American companies 27.14 per cent of the premiums received. To the average layman not skilled in the

business of tire insurance it may appear strange that something like one third of

the amount of premiums paid for Ilre ln- surance should be consumed in expenses, while the Insured receive for losses no more than from one half to two thirds of what they pay in premiums, iind the

companirs are still raising their rates.

This news come from St. Petersburg

and we regard it as pronablytrue, as it is an admission that a formidable Japanese army has crossed the Yalu .River and invaded Manchuria. Clearly the Russian general stat! would not admit so much if it were not true.

That there is money to be made in the

codtlsbery appears from the following item which we clip from a Nova Scotia exchange:

The Lunenburg fishing schr. Gladys B.

In 1897, $1,099.52;‘ 1808, 84,407.68;

1899, $2,653,07; 1900, $3,200.09; 1001, $2,400.00; 1902, $3,200.00; 1001!, $8,500.00; total $20,462.27, or a net proilt of $3,922.90 per year divided among the shareholders. This floating bonanza will asain go to the Banks this season and will make an at- tempt to break the record.

Much has appeared in the riess in re-

cent years about the mysterious Picton cattle disease. for which the plant com- monly known as ragwort ha- been blam-

ed. In a recent letter to the Maritime Farmer, Father Burke deals wi h the

subject, and in the course of his remarks says: "lt seems but just to say here that lo our Island naturalist, Mr. L. W. Wat- son of the Marine Department, Charlotte- town, belf. nge the honor of having discov- ered how the weed proiuces the cattle

disease-that it is caused by the fungus growth attaching to the plant and not by the plant itself. This discovery alone has

made the present experiments possible’

She says:-“I have the greatest faith in Baby`s Own Tablets for young children and I always keep them in the house. lliovh my little ones were troubled wiili constipation and sour stomach. I gave them the Tall-

lets and they are now perfectly well. Once in n w ile I still give them adose to prevent the trouble coming back." If all sensible mothers follow this advice there will be fewer cross peevlsh, sickly babies in the land.
