NOTES OF TH&S MARKETS.

Pork declined 30c. in Chicagoon Wed- nesday. Corn declinel 7 to le. Oats also declined, but wheat gained a fraction.

An active demaod from foreign buyers for hams and bacon has caused an ad- vance of 4c. per lb., live weight, for hegs m the west.

Cheese rules much week in Montreal, but as stiffas it was. Se changed bands on Mo: igc. Butter was qui Holders refused 163 1 day, stipulating for s considerable advance onithat. The Gazette quotes the range according toqnal.ty: 16; 1016}. Dairy butier is quotable at 13; to 13}.

Tbhetotal cheese shipments from Mon- treal from May lat to Saturday laet were 637,344 boxes, compared with 827,520 boxes for the same period last year; and of butter 57,405 packayes, compared with 44,271.

At Cornwallon Saturday cheesesold at Tic to 7 5-8e; at Londoa 74c; at Cowans~ ville, Quebec, 7 }~8 to 7 3-16.

Oats are firmerin the west, owing to anfavorable crop reports from some On- tario districts,

BACON INP. E.ISLAND.

Charlottetown Has the Largest Pork

Pactory in Canada.

A Prince Edward [sland correspondent of the Country Gentleman writes that the value of the exports of bacon from that province during the last six months amounts to more than $300,000, and that nt is expected thatthe sales of the next twely2: months in Great Britain alone will exceed $500,000. Charlottetown has the largest pork packinz factory in Canada its products bring the highest prices in the British n arkets, and it ie not doubted that tn @ few years the bacon indusiry of the Island will exceed that of butter and cheese combined. Such bacon asthe Islanders produce always commands a high price and affords the producer a satisfactory margin of profit, The old wav of fatten- ing pork has ben sbandoned, @crub pigs are now more highly esteemed than serub catile, and the resultof their extinetion on the island to a considerable extent, bas been greatly to the advantage of the farmers. Grade Berkshires, York- shizes and Tameortke are the favorites They graze like sheep during the summer monthein fields eown with peas, oats and other grains, and for a month or eo before they are slaughtered they are fed with ground grain and cooked rovta, The sugar beet is an excellent fooi—and when killed 150 to 200 pounds is the proper weight. Five acres of clover, peas, oate, corn aod other grains divided into five lots, in which they are placed alternately, it is estimated will keep fifty suimale during the sum-~ mer.

THE DAILY EXAMINER, CHARLOTTETOWN, AUGUST 5 1898.

A BOSION ALCHEMIST.

o_o

He Claims to Know the Secret of

| Making Precious Stones.

Bostrox, Aug 3.—A Boston uphoisterer bas turned magician and says he k nows

how to make sappbires, rubies, &:., as | good as those turned out by nature.

His name is Albert J. Raby, which may | have something todo with his penchant for precious stones. But ¢o far a: any oue knows he bas not produced any gems of the firat water yet.

His own account of ruby and sapphire making is giveu in this brief and vague manner: ‘*Last winter,” says Mr. Ruby, “while looking fora solvent for carbon with the idea of separating the carbon afterward and reducing it to a soluble, hard and fusible form (by the way, I was trying to make a diamond),[ accidentally and with the help of God diseovered the secret of crystallization cr the making of the alluminous precious stones, rubies, emeralds, &c.

And yet Mr. Raby seems to possess other merits besides the ear-marks of a crank. Heisastudent. He reads many volumes in the public library which are not called for by other people. He is perfectly certain of his ground and swears oy Lis ideas, though they have not yet materialized aoy precious stoues

“But, says Mr. Raby, “I am far ahead of all other experimenters in this line. | possess the secret of crystallizatior, which 8 at the bottom of the whole thing.”

“I will be the first maa,” he says, “and perhaps» the last mau, to make a perfect spinelle ruby, sapp!ire ruby and beryl emerald. A person inight spend fifty years with book learning,trying to find out how to make these precious atones, but except his mind is centred on one line of thought his time would be wasted. “The line of thought which lead; to suc ~ cess comes from God, and don’! you forge! it. With me it is only a question ef a short time to a first cla-s condition and have it pronounced a genuire stone in every way. At the start I pro- pose toturon Out turquoise without one grain of glass or silica in it, chrysolite and other opaque forms. They can be produc- ed in squares, hearts, crosses, or ia the shape of beads with holes in them; and they will be the fad for a generation tu come.”

A WARNING,

Sir,—I would like to cal! the attention of the comm ssioner of Put ig Works to the state of affairs on the Sturgeon Line Road, Lot 61. Itis in a most disgracfal condition, and the travelling public is in danger of themse! ves in passing over it.

It was sold some time in June to be com-= pleted by the 20th of Jaly; bvt no one moge has been madeto that end yet. The

and the Government supporters sre wait - ing closeley to see what the outcome wil] be. What makes the case stil] worse is the fact that there are some people here who hava farms on the road and they can-~ not haul their hay unti! the bridge is built,

So I would davise the Commissioner of Public Works toattend to it at once, and

work give it to someone who is able to do 83 at once. An Op LIBERAL. Sturgeon, Lot 61 July 25th 1898.
