The unceasing struggle for supremacy in almost every line of trade undoubtedly has a tendency to make dealers resort to questionable methods of business. Take, for instance, a line of high-class dress goods like Priestley’e, which has been brought to a state of perfection and has attained popularity everywhere; as soon as the ladies insist upon having these goods and no others, it is reported that some merchants have even taken the “ Varnish- ed Board,” Priestley’s Trade Mark out of the Genuine Priestley’s Black Dress Goods or CGravennettes, and wrapped in- ferior goods upon it, for the purpos¢ of de- ceiving the customer. Fortunately, how- ever, au extra precaution was adopted by the manufacturers in stamping the name “ Priestiey’a ” and the leugth on every five yards, so that ladies who want these zooda can be sure they are getting them. Sax Frascisco, December 4—Father A. Goettle, a Franciecan priest living at Kel- seyville, Cal, has received a letter con- cerning his brother, whois a missionary in China, and has been etationed in the province of Shenst. The correspondent states that Father Goettle was dragged by the hair for two miles and tortured by a mob, who cut his body with knives, thorns and sticks. When almost dead he was rescued, but is still ina precarious con- ditien from hie injuries. The mandarin in charge of the province connived with the perpetrators because the priest would not acknowledge the mandarian’s authority as supreme.

This he | proceeded todo. Hesaid that the New Perth cheese factory was started on the 20ch June, 1892. In that year 506 boxes heese were sent to England. In the following year 5,602 boxes, and this year 10,400 boxes of cheese and 386 tubs of butter, were sent to Great Britain. The progress wes marked. The cost of starting a butter factorv would be the milk of at least 300 cows : the outset, be required. He opening of a stock list, which cheese and about $3,000 iw i also show how many cows’ milk each subscriber woula be prepared to fur- nish. A company could then be formed i } t and incor porate i, and the work begun. He hoped that the people would not hang back, and that, having decided to co-oper- butter factory they al na cheese and would would give it their hearty support and patronage, not permitting any per- sonal censideratior to deter any man from uniting in the effort to make ita success. The larger the patronage, t! smaller proportionately would be the cost of operating the factory and the greater the profits of the share holders. Those who bring the milk to the factory may almostas well drive two horses as one, and those who operate the factory will make a large quantity of cheese t utter for the same wages that they will make a small quan- ty When the factory was started at New Perth there wax one man, with nine cows, who said he would send to it the milk o see if it would pay!” [t neec not be said that ifall the farmers had acted upon the same principle, the lairy enterprise of P.

Island would not exhibited the progress shewn to-day f one i . have —we should not certainly have 10,490 boxes of cheese for export this fall Ch farmers of _ this district ought to work heartily together for the promotion of their own interests. Of course there will be opposition. Mr. Dil- when the Brownaville (On- started about twenty- seven years he heard one man de- elare that he thought the cow manure bad lon said that tario) factory was act azo, } for the clay land there. This man said, “Take my word for it. if these people en- gage in dairying and put the cow’s man- ure on the land, inside of ten years it will be as full worms as Hell is full of levils.” Of cour-e he was not listened to, and the worms did not appear! There are always people to raise objections, but too much attention should not be paid to hem. The great point is to keep all local jealousies aud party prejudices and petty spites out ef the co-operative dairy busi- Mr. Dillon went on to describe some of wire ness of his own personal experiences and to show how the enterprise was built up in Ontario. New factories have been built there from year to year. It is @ notable fact that from being im- porters of cheese to the extent of $80,532 n 1864, the people of Canada exported cheese in 1893 to the extent of $13,407,000. Such advances should convince the most skeptical that the business is a good one. Dairymen should be readers as wel] as workers, and in this connection Mr. Dillon recited some verses by the Canadian poet, McLachlan, which we are enre will be ap- preciated many readers of Tue EXAMIXER : pby “This generation ne’er can know The toils we had to undergo, While laying the great forests low.’ “For many a weary year [ wrought, With poverty and hardship fought, And hardly had I time for thonght » “In ev erv stroke, in every blow, In every towering pine laid low, I felt a triumph o’er a foe.’ “Each knotty hemlock old and brown, Each elm in thunder hurling down, A jewel added to my crown.” “Bat fighting with those stubborn facte, My spirit paid a heavy tax,— My soul grew callous as my axe. “Until that time, I little knew, What books for lonely hearts can do, Till spirits round my hearth they drew.” “My cabin seemed a whole world wide ! Kings entered in without their pride, And warriors laid their swords aside !” “There came the Saxon, there the Celt, And all had knelt where I had knelt, For all had felt what I had felt ! “IT saw,—from clime and creed apart,— Still heaving *neath their robes of art—- The universal human heart. “Homer, and Sir, Walter Scott — They entered in my humble cot, And cheered with tales my lowly lot. “Moore and Burns with songs divine, Their heart and seul in every line ; A glorious company was mine ! “T wa«a brother to the great!

A perfect 1 Mr. Dillon advised every farmer engag- | ing in the dairy business to get the reporis of the Dominion Dairy Commisasioner, wich can be had on application for noth ng. Carefal attention should be giv- ea to breeding, feeding, and training the cows. A good cow should give 3,000 lbs of milk in five months, yielding 300 Ibs of cheese, which at an average price- of 10 cents would give $30 per cow. But he was sorry to say that too many cows in this country are not good enough. Our farmers can grow in eae nea t ' { EXAMINER . perfection the fodder most suitable for the | dairy cow and they slould imitae the farmers of Holland iu breeding, feeding and training ber. There should be no hay shipped from this province at less than $15 a ton, or oats at leas than 50 cents a tushel. When prices are lower than there, it vill pay better to feed the hay and the grain to the cows and produce Mr. Robert Jenkins said that exper- jence as a dealer ir butter, —one who de- ' sired to do the best he could for the farm- ers and their wives,—had proved to him that it was impossible to compete success- fully by hoine-made butter against butter made in factories provided with every appliance for making it. Home made butter sells at an average price of i7 cents, while that of the factories sells at 214 cents—a difference of 4} cents per lb. He hoped that a cheese and butter factory would be successfully operated in this district. Mr. Sampson Farquharson asked : “What will the Government do? Mr. Dillon replied that he could not say for certain; but he presumed that if appli- cation were made to the Department of Agriculture, the same arrangement would be entered into in respect to tbe propose: factory as has been made with other fac- teries throughout the Province. William Welsh, M. P., suggested that a stock list should be opened. He would willingly take shares and help the enter- prise along. He would also willingly admit and bear testimony to what the Do- minion Government had done to promote the dairy industry in this Province. On motion of Mr. Layton McCabe, of Alexandra, it was— Resolved, That this meeting afproves the proposal to start a butter and cheese factory in thie locality. The following-gentlemen were then ap- pointed provisional directors of the com- pany, viz: David McDonald, Johnson’s River; Patrick Duffy, Buxbury; Jotun Smith, Pownal; Layton McCabe, Alex- andra; Charles Myers, Lot 48; Albert Mutch, Mount Herbert; George Wood, Hazelbrook. A stock list was at once opened, and thirty-nine subscribers obtained, with a guarantee that the milk of 198 cows would be supplied. The following gentlemen were appointed to canvass the several school districts for additiona) snbscriptions, viz., James Mc- Callum, Johnston’s River; Alex. McDon- ald, Let 49; James Jones, Pownal; Layton McCabe, Alexandra; William Duffy, Bun- bury; George Drake, Mount Mellick; F. Driscoll, Donagh; Sampson Farquharson, Mount Herbert; Daniel Wood, Haze! Brook; Albert Farqubareon, Mermaid District; Charles Myers, Lake Verde; W W. McDonald, Glenfinnan; James Stawart, Bethel; Robert Jenkins, Mount Albion. The thanks of the meeting were unani- mously voted to Mr. Dillon and the chair Than. On motion of Patrick Duffy, Esq., the meeting adjourned to meet at Mount Her- bert Hall on Thursday, 20th December inst, at 2 o’clock. —_< CHINA AND JAPAN, At the Japanese Legation in Washing- ton the disposition is to discredit the statements made by the Japanese semi- official press, and if the war were con- cluded the victorious nation would demand now an indemnity of 400,000,000 yen and cession of Chinese territory now occupied by the Japanese. It is not desirable, it is stated at the legation, that the terms of any treaty of peace should be published at this time. According to advices received from London from an excellent authority upon the subject, negotiations for peace between China and Japan are not making as rapid strides as supposed. It seems certain that the Japanese intend to insist upon stronger and more tangible proof of China’e submission betore peace. A despatch from efficial Japanese sources, ces, giving an account of ( ommissioner Detring’s peace mission, was received at Washington on the 4th, by a gentleman in the diplomatic service. It states that Mr. Detring, commissioner in the Chinese cus- toms service at ‘Tien Tain, arrived at Kobe November 26 and expressed the wish to personally deliver to Count Ito a letter from the viceroy Li Hang Chang. As this proceeding was considered contrary to usage Count Ito refused to meet Mr. De- tring. Atthe same time Mr. Detring re- ceived telegraphi orders from Prince Kung, president of the Tsung Li Yamen, recalling him to China. Accordingly he at once left Kobe, but before going he sent the vieeroy’s letter to Count Ito by post. The object of the letter was to ascertain the conditions upon which peace may be restor- ed. It aleo stated that Li Hung Chang had obtained the sanction of the emperor of ' China to the mission of Mr, Detring, which had for its object the purpose of confiden- tially ascertaining the views of the Japan- ese government, but Mr. Detriug’s sudden return to China under orders from the pre- sident of the Tsung Li Yamen appears to throw some doubt upon the accuracy of this statement. = Among the reasons for the almost unin- terrupted success of Japan in prosecuting the present war with China is the spirit ot sacrifice and generosity exhibited by her people. Voluntary contributions ameunt- ing to almost $15,000,000 have been re- ceived by the Government. The Bank of the Nobility, which has given $1,000,000 outright, hus also placed $15,000,000, in terest free, at the disposal of the authori- ties. The noblemen and wealthy merchants have been most patriotic, and a number of them have contributed more than $100,000 each. Public spirit in China with reter- ence to the unfortunate conflict presents a melancholy contrast. The Berlin Koelnische Zeitung warns | England that an Anglo-Russian alliance could result only in Russia’s compelling her to dictate to Japan and enforce upoa her certain conditions at the end of the war. England already wishes to deprive Japan of the fruits of victory, says the writer. She would find the Russian pro- gramme a difficult and distasteful one, as any attempt on her part to coerce Japan would be frowned on by the whole ciyiliz- ed world outside of her own dominions, Advices from Tokio say the capture of Port Arthur has been celebrated every- where with entertainments and illumina- tiens. The money collected at the enter- tainments is devoted to the purchase of comforts for the troops. ——nn+ <o -Oae Amessury, Mass., Dec. 4.—An electric car invented by Joshua Grey, of Boston, completed to-day at the Briggs car works.
