Opinion of the Montreal Produce Merchants' Association. All readers of this paper will be interested in the following letter, sent out by the Montreal Produce Merchants' Association, and the resolution adopted by them in con- nection with certain sections of the new Insurance Bill, now before the Government at Ottawa. We have no comment to make on the statements in this letter, which was sent out by the Montreal Board of Trade to the Butter and Cheese Boards throughout the country, and to all others whom they thought it would interest. It is published, however, because it is undoubtedly of interest to members of every rural community in the country : Dear Sir, â€" Probably you arc aware that at the last Fcssion of Parliament, clauses were inserted ii the Insurance Bill to prevent the I shall be only too happy to do so.

Whereas certain sections of the Bill called "An Act respe'-ting In- surance" that is to be introduced at the coming session of Parliament, will have the effect of increasing the co.st of fire insurance to every user thereof; Whereas any increase in the rates of insurance on farm and dairy pro- duce will have an injurious effect, and therefore become burdensome to the farming and produce indus- tries of Canada ; Whereas the general fire insur- ance companies located in Canada are asking for Hints for Busy Housekeepers.

The grace of Godâ€" The true in- spiration of the liberal giving of the churches of Macedonia, namely, those in Beroea, Thcssalonica, and Philippi. Paul had been a person- al observer of the life of the Mace- donian Christians. 2. In much proof of affliction â€" The testing brought by persecution (Acts 17. 6; 1 Thess. 2. 14; 3. 2, 3). There were two fruits of their trials. One was joy (Acts 6. 41). The other was their poverty, so deep as to drain their resources and make lib- erality nearly out of the question. But joy and poverty worked to- gether to effect a most notable e.x- aniplo of Christian ^ving. 3. Twofold proof of Macedonian liberality: (I) it was conscientious â€"according to their power; (2) it was spontaneousâ€" of their own ac- cord. The remarkable thing in Macedonia was that the believers gave not only as they were able, but even went beyond their power. This Paul does not encourage or expect the Cofinthians to do (verse 12). 4. Beseeching us ... in regard of this graceâ€" They eagerly sought from Paul the favor of being per- mitted to exercise this unusual charity, and to make common cause with other believers in the luiniHtry of brotherly kindness (fel- lowship in . . . ministering). 8.

There is no question but tnat at the present time the majority of the insurers who effect their insurance with registered Companies, are pro- tected against excessive rates by the certain knowledge that tho own- er will have recourse to outside in- surance if necessity arises. Any al- teration in the existing insurance law, which would restrict the ob- taining of fire insurance outside of Canada, would not only immediate- ly re-act on tho dairying and farm- ing interests by reason of the in- creased cost of insurance to the large produce firms who at the pre- sent timo insure outside of the country, but it would also affect those houses which at present insure with registered Companies, in that it is only natural that tho rates and conditions would shortly become all, they had made an unwithhold- 'ring not to his advising rather than more onerous if competition were ing surrender of thcm»»^lve« to j commanding, but to the matter i cut off.

Steady Advance Since 19fl7 and nii; Increases in September. Tho Vossische Zeitung, of Berlin, publishes a table of figures drawn from oflicial reports relating to prices of food and other commodi- ties in Germany in recent years. Remarkable differences prevailed between .\ugust and September of the present year, some few products falling, while the majority of the most important continued to rise. The price of hops, which has sunk steadily since 1907, more than dou- bled last month. Taking the aver- age price as 100 during the decade 1889-1898, the average price of rye in 1007 was 130, in 1908, 119, and in last September 117.4. Wheat has risen from 119 in 1907 to 123.3 in 1909, being in August, however, 139. Hops, which in 1907, were 73, have risen to 147.9. Maize has risen from 152 to 1C0.9, butter from 63 to 122, lard from 131 to 183, while beef has fallen some 15 per cent. Pork, which is the most consum- ed meat, has risen from 105 in 1907 t) 138. G, and molasses from 144 to 214. Potatoes have fallen 7 per cent., and herrings 40; rice has fal- len from 110 to 104; cotton has ris- en from 116 to 142.0, while other textiles, likewise metals, have fal- len considerably. -. + THE KIND WE ALL HAVE.
