Driving the cows from the upper meadow— Beauty and Brindle and Bess—

Now in the sunlight, now in the shadow, And now in the wind’s caress;

With song as sweet as at morn the starling Is won’t to the skies to trill ;

Mollie, the farmer’s daughter and darling, Comes tripping adown the hill.

Purple and black are the braided tresses, Her dainty temples that crown;

Still on the bridge where the water glistens, As the moonlight on it falls, The miller talks, and the maiden listens, Bet the cows are in their stalls. W. D. Kelly in Ladies’ Home Journal.

The effect of the creation of wheat growing industry in India is quite perceptible in the decrease of the area in wheat in the United States. wheat area of the republic was 39,475,885 acres; in 1888, 37,336,133 acres; last year, 38,123,859 acres, and the estimated area this season is 36,400,000 acres, or over three millions less than in 1884. The yield of course has been very largely affected by other causes than decreased area, but the decline in quantity has been even more In 1884 the yield was 512,752,000 bushels, against an aver- age for the six years 1884-9 of 458,136,000 It is of course too early yet to know very approximately the returns of the present harvest, but the July estimate, when most of the wheat was cut, was 430,- 000,000 bushels, or 18,600,000 bushels less than the average, and 82,000,000 bushels, or nearly one-sixth, less than the yield of

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. A Regatta.

S1r,—Seeing that the summer is almost gone, and all hope of a Firemen’s Tourna- ment gone with it, is it not too late to move in the matter of a regatta’ Surely the people of Charlottetown are not going to let this summer go by without even having a boat race. Ghar ottetown harbor, with all the beauty that nature has given it, and with one of the best tidal race courses in America, has not been the scene of a boat race worth looking at since the memorable four-oared boat race between the Halifax crews and the Dean-Robins crew, in which the latter crew won second place in the regatta race, and wona match race with the third crew on the day following. Since then we have had two or three smail regattas, gotten up by a few of the lovers of aquatics in this city. But the interest manifested in old time races seemed to have been lost. We have two boating clubs now in our city, and I have no doubt but that they would be able to keep up the reputation of our fair Island in a regatta open to the three Provinces, as well as our representatives in any other kind of sport. Now, Sir, I will not take it on myself to devise ways and means of raising funds for a regatta in which the three Provinces can compete, but I think that it would pay the Exhibition Association if they would give to a citizen’s regatta committee fifty or seventy-five dollars (provided a citizens meeting was called and a regatta committee appointed) to start it, I have no doubt but that such a committee could easily raise two hundred or two hundred and fifty dollars from our merchants, hotel keepers and private citizens, which, with entrance fees and what little they could get as gate money, would be sufficient to give prizes large enough to get crews from St. John, Halifax, New Glasgow, Pictcu and other places. These crews would not come alone ; they would all bring a certain number of friends with them to see the regatta, and any person coming here to see the regatta would go to see the Exhibition and trotting races, therefure the Exhibition Association would make instead of lose money by vot- ing, say fifty dollars towards a regatta, as it alone would be the means of bringing hundreds of people to our city. I would suggest thet a meeting be called for the

purpose of arranging for a regatta to be held in the forenoon of one of the trotting days. A first-class regatta can be put

through in four hours at the furthest— eight races (all three mile with a turn) can be started and finished in that time by a good lively committee. Hoping that some of the prominent members of our Boating Clubs will move in the matter of calling a general meeting, I remain,’yours etc., A Lover or Aquatics. Ch’town, Aug. 19, 1890.

Jail Square.

Srir,—It is bad enough to have this Square disfigured with the Jail, and the hideous fence around it, but when it coiaes to be turned into a dumping ground for ballast, and other refuse, it is more than cltizens can be expected to tolerate, Is this allowed by authority, or is it merely neglect on the part of the city officials in allowing it? It is hoped they will do the needful in this matter, and not leave it to citizens to indite the parties as a nuisance.

Unpleasant Facts about Cheese.—M. Adametz, the London Natwre says, has lately made some researches upon the mi- croscopic organisms {that inhabit cheese, From an examination of Emmenthal, a soft variety of Gruyere cheese, he has ob- tained the following results : In each gramme (about 15 grains) of the cheese, when fresh, from 90,000 to 140,000 mi- crobes are found. This number increases withtime. Thus, a cheese 75 days old con- tains 800,000 bacteria per gramme. ‘The population of a soft cheese 25 days old and much denser than the preceding is 1,200,- 000, and that of a cheese 45 days old is 2,- 000,000 microbes per gramme. But the population of a cheese is not everywhere distributed the same in it. The centre. is but moderately inhabited with respect to the exterior portion. The population of. a soft cheese, uear the periphery, is from 4,- 600,000 to 5,600,000 microbes. According to the mean of these two figures there are as many living organismsin 360 grammes (less than a pound) of such a cheese 2s there are people upon the earth.

It soothes the child, softens the gums, allays all pain, relieves wind, regu- lates the bowels and is the best known remedy for diarrhoea, whether arising from ing or other causes.
