Ix answer toa question lately asked him as to whether Canadian butter in Great Britain is making a good market for itself, Professor Robertsun said: “Excellent; in Some Gases at prices over the Australian and next tothe Danish.” The Professor went On to say: “There is a good deal said about the great increase in the exports of butter from Victoria. That colony arranged to givea bonus for five years, beginning im 1889 and ending in 1894. In 1894 the British Trade returns give the imports from Victoria at $4,565,425. Since that time Canada has gained one and a quarter million of dollars, and Vic- toria lias lost over three-quarters of & million of dollars.” “In order to have creamery butter in a perfect state when it is delivered to the coosumers in Great Britain, it eheuld be protected in cold storage from one day after it is made. As the Government had decided to arrange for what wil! be practic- ally a chain of cold storage service from the producers in Canada to the consumers in Great Britain, it was necessary that the owners of the creameries, the manufactur- ers of butter and the farmers who furnish the milk and cream should all co-operate to bring about the best results. Very few creameries were uniil this season equipped with sufficient or efficient cold storage accommodation.” CC 2 - eS NOTES AND COMMENTS —The summer time table of this year, which goes into effect tomorrow, is prac- tically the same as that of Jast year. —It appears that the oflicial papers regarding the Petrel state that she made eighteen round trips.

He is thimble- rigging at Ottawa, and evidently hopes to obtain something with which to draw attention away from his record and hum- bug the electors. — The Government said that there would be a prohibition plebiscite this year and the Guardian was pleased. The Government aay that there will not be a plebiscite this year aod still the Guardian is pleased. It is highly probable that the plebiscite, if ever taken, will amountto nothing. Yet it is safe to say that the Guardian will continue to be pleased. —The summer arrangement of trains on the Island railway goes. into effect to-morrow. The passenger coaches have been made ready forthe season’s work by the first-class workmen who have been allowed to remain on the road. In this connection special reference should be made to the new car, turned out a few mopths ago, which was designed by Mr. Coffin. It is a pity, however, that more attention has net been paid to the second class cars. Many of these need a thorough repairing or new ones put on in their places. The Empire, London : Despite bad trade and the angry denunciations of the patrio- tic American preas, the exodus of Ameri- can tourists becomes more formidable every year. Their Minister of Finance once asserted that his fellow-citizens spent every year £24,000,000 upon excursions to Europe—which meant a total loss of that sum to American trade. This is the pen- alty they have to pay for allowing the struggle for material progress to blind them to the intellectual needs of a nation. An Athens correspondent asserts that Prince Constantine, after the retreat from Domokosa, attempted to commit suicide with a revolver on learning of the intense feeling against him. The correspondent adds that the Prince was prevented by his ofticers from taking his life. Up in Kingston @ postmaster was dis~ missed the other day. The reason given is that he is that he istoo old.

Last week there were, besides the usnal motley crowd of ordinary imniigrants, two lota of Galicians, whose sheepskin clothing and general barbaric aspect attracted a good deal of curious attention. Yesterday there was the most peculiar aggregation of all, in the persons of forty-four Russniak peasants, the first of their kind who ever came to this country, The Rnssniaks wera dressed in their national costuines. It is a costume that is not likely to atrain any great popularity in this country, but it probably has its points of excellence. The men wore tight-fitting trousers of coarse white home- epun linen, which they tucked into high rawhide boots, the tops of which were turned down in & loose flap and were ela- boratcly embroidered. The shirts were of the same material, and the coats were o! sheep skin, with the hair inside, laced in front with rawhide tong:.
