The total milk received was 495,557 lbs, and the total cheese manufactured was 46,224 Ibe. Lbs of milk to one lb cheese, 10.70; average price realized 7.99; no of patrons, 78; net value to patrons, 52¢ per 100 Richard ldeanebury, Esq, supplied the largest quantity of milk. The old board of direceors was re- appointed anda dividend was declared to stockholders payable March 15, 1899. The prospects for vext season are the brightest on record. Peo; i+ are beginning : }D&8, to see that dairy butter must henceforth be sold at a figure below the cost of pro» duction.

A large number of our best patrons are in favor of putting in a butter plaut so as to be in a position to make the most possi. ble out of the milk.

As the fac- Our vupinion is that the several dairying companies should take steps to @avea thoroughly competent inspector for the leland, under contrel of a cheese board which spould be formed. The inspector anould be free from government control. Isit not possible to improve the quality of our output? In fact 18 it not possible that the quality of the Island product | may not deteriorate io quality as thiogs are at preeent. If so, this meansin future a a greatlossto the Province. We now have our market. Itis ournext duty to suit and hold it That we do not suit i: is perfectly evidenced by the fact that- our cheese does not bring the price of the article that just suits the delicate taet>s of our customers, Wemust nct overlook thie, and take time by the forelook, diag-~ nose the disease and apply the remedy. In almost all articles of comm ree, to-day, the best pays aprofit, Superior grades give : litle or none. Let us sim at the very best. We have the climate and grass of which there are none superior. The fault then must be ours, Let us look to it. (here ia a business for our children’s children, and must not be trifled with. We want more care in handling milk by our patrons. More care in feeding the cows. Milk cans left on etands all day in the heat of summer fall of whey must © be stopped short, even at the risk of losing a good patron. Patrons must be instruc‘ed how to handle the milk and the directors must iosiston these instructions being carried out; also more attention to fitting up the curing rooms of onr factories’ Ii seems that the curing, in many in*tancee, is the chief cause of complement. There are many details which tend to the pro- duction of the ideal article, which should be explained at meetings in our public halls. We do not wish to be understood as fault-finding. Ouronly desire to see such steps taken as well tend to keep up to the | bighest point possible the quality of the output of our Provincial dairies. To this end we kaow of no better way than the forming of a Provincial Cheese Board composed of the best material from each company to deal with this matter. Our interests are mutual. Dirgcror.

There is a feeling of sadness when an old resideat is laid away, but not much less so when an old neighbour sells his property and takes his departure for new ecenes and spheres of labour, leaving the old home with its many associations, cld and youog friends, the ecenes of youth ani mashood, to give the few remaiaing years of life amongst strangers. But such is life. These thoughts come to our mind as we learn that Mr. Isaiah Enman has sold his farm to Mr J. Herman Jones, and intends shortly to remove to St. Catherines, where he has purchased a farm from Mr. McDonald. Mr. Enman, who is now in his 80th year, was acaulker by trace, and his services were eagerly sought after, as his work was always welland faithfully done The old gentleman is wel! versed tn Bible history, being able toquote passage afier passage correctly. He nae avery retentive inemory, and can describ? scenes and events of his early youth, giving dates with minuie ex~ actness. He will be greatly missed by the whole community.

Miss Carrie McDonaid ot Kelley’s Cross played the accompaniments, in her usual graceful style. The concert opened with “Manhattan Beach” played by Miss McDonadand assisted on the voilin by Mr. Anthony McDonald and Charles Dougherty; it was exceedingly well render- ed. The songs of Miss Moore, Mrs Cass and Mr. Berrigan won the well merrited applause that fo lowed; whilst the recita- tions of Mr. P. Trainor and Mr. T.A. McLean, judging by the comments of the audience, couid bardly be better appreoiat ed. The sale of baskets came next. The auction:ers, Mr. Horne and Mr. Bradley, were in their happiest mood. The bidding was interesting and fepirited at times and cupidal affinities made empty purses. During an interval ia [che sale of baskets, Mr, A.
