P.R., docs not look as it the Old Country was qulto run out yet. Ot course, England duet not so about rattling her money quite as loudly u some other people, but she has got it nevertheless. Mr. Skinner states that there had been latterly immense buying ot Bri- tish muaicipal and colonial securities, and it WAS felt that it was about time that the public should halt a little and see to the digestion of what had been taken in. In regard to money stringency in the United States, that would probably con- tinue until tinancial methods were modified. "The measures of relief are not,†he added, "within the reach of the government at Washington, like the governments ot Great Britain or Canada. Immense sums ot money are being daily collected at the ports of the United States and stowed away in the treasury, only finding their way back when the g0"rtt- ment's own payments are made, while in England like sums are col- lected, but they are placed Imme- diately at the disposition of the Da- tion by being deposited in the banks, "The Americans might Iitui a. re- medy by creating a great institution like the Bank of England or placing large reserves in dillerent responsible banks of the country, yet I am afraid that either ot these suggestions would meet with strong opposition." In. iGiiLi--t.-todsott' “IMO-II“ Political lecling, Mr, Skinner said, was high in the United States and one financial institution might have a greater 'pull' with the powers that be than others, and state jeaiousres would, no doubt, arise as they would likely desire large financial concentra- tion in their respective communities. Then. it the Government law in to withdraw these reserves during a. stringent period, the result would be disaster to the bank and to the com- munity, and here again political in- fluence might be unduly exercised, or, at least, the opponents ot the ad- ministration would mako the charge. inn gunman“. ttFe,,'.",,',,'::":',':".":':".:.".',: pun-gm“: ecu-J- Mr. Skinner would not admit the United States claim that the money control or the world was being re- moved trom London to New York. The United States investments in other countries must be comparative 1y few, as their cwn land will tstr- sorb much of their spun all]. At the same time it wan impossible to predict what might happen in the tu- ture where the reserves were so great and varied and development sn rapid. This continent, Mr. Skinner said, might possibly become the business centre of the world, and Europe the residential portion tor those who have succeeded in lite. The impending coal famine which stares us in the lace at the present time, presents numerous phases which line here1 More been very little touched upon.

Ot this tmr, thirds is used In Greater New York and its vicinity alone. Fifteen per cent., or 8,035,000 tons, goes to the New England States, and 12 per per cent., or 6,428,000 tons, to the Western States.

Coal Is A much greater necessity in Canada than In the United States and the consequences ot 5.00.1 tam- ina would In much more serious here than than. 'rtte Uumlmon Government could do much to relieve namely ud to pre- vent stutenag by ordering at once a large consagament ot Welsh coal, not tor summon distribution, but tur sale at cost. price. Chanuble or6aui- lmuons and private phllantbtopy ml! attend to the matter at gratut- tous distribution as usual it the coal can be bought from the Government or from anybody else. But If anything in to be done in tis direction it will have to be done quickly. There Will be a great rush tor Welsh coal presently from all (parts ot the continent and it will be datrieult to charter enough ships to ‘hrmg all the coal that is needed. The financial risk incurred by the Government would be small and any loss that might result in the unlikely contingency ot a fall in prices would be regarded by the whole people ot Canatb as a ptstrfiable premium to pay for insuring the country against a great calamity. The thing when questl added dry g ports dollars, and the duty upon the same is 35 percent, ad valorem, he pays out, ot course, a hundred and thirty- tive dollars. As there is a good deal ot extra work in clearing his goods from the customs, and he gives cre- dit for goods plus duty, he probably charges an all round profit on the total, or cost ot goods plus duty, and it his profit is 20 persent. that brings the selling price to the retail- er of goods that cost $100 to $162. The retailer pays the first cost ot the goods, the duty, the profit on the goods and the profit on the duty. The hundred dollars' worth of goods having thus cost the retailer $162, he proceeds to add his own orotit, which, tt we take it at 25 per cent, brings the retail selling price up to $202.50. So that the purchas- er, when the duty is 35 percent, pays more than 50 'cents our of every dol- lar for duty. The duty is 35 percent on all colored cottons that enter Canada trom the United States, and 23 1-3 percent on those that come lrom Great Britain, and yet the col. ored cotton manufacturers are asking for more. in the we ot some goods when competition is keen wholesal- ers mny perhap- only add to the duty the extra cost of clearing them from the customs. But. in all cases the retailer necessarily adds profit to goods and duty alike, and the con- sumcr pays so much the more, Where very customary profits are made on an invoice, a hundred dollars' worth of goods paying 35 percent ad valor- ern duty, would thus show, when an alyzed, goods, tloo, profits or whole- saler and retailer, $50, duty and two profits on duty, $52.50. Less duty and less profits would naturally show less margin between the cost of the goods and the selling price, but it will be seen that the home manu- tavturemwho sells direct to the re- taller escapes the cost and delay at clearing goods at the customs, and can also add to selling prices what- ever the wholesale merchant charges as profit on imported goods, _ Toronto Star. - The Attorney- General's Department is going to put its omcial tout heavily on all Sab- bath breaking, as defined by the clauses of the Lord's Day Act in op- pratinn in this movince.

In these days ot fierce competition it is only by keeping down the cost ot production and preveuung all wute that (arming can be made succeutul. Some sources ot loss urban given 'which will readily suggest others. One of the chief lenkl on many (arms is the loss ot time and energy because the management, ls not. car- ned out on Any definite system. A study of any old and successful bum- ness will Show that success has been largely due to a. methodical and sys- tcmanc way of doing things. Sys- tem may be carried too tar so " to become merely mechanical, but u 1 general proposition tt may be said ct sl: that be pl the Ai', men employed on the farm should hare well-defined duties to perform so that their time may be used to the best advantage. A good system provides lor the teeding" of stock at regular hour: each day. When stock are fed and watered at regular hours they become accustom- ed to the regularity of teeding, and thrive much better than it led at. dilterent hours on each succeeding day. A very common source of loss is found in the neglect ot expensive farm implements and tools. These are left lying in the fields where they have been used, subject to all the inclo» mencies of the Weather, which are more destructive than actual use. Small tools are frequently lost, and larger implements rust or rot. There should be a place on every farm where implements may be kept under should with the t rainy day, implements ccssary rep lost by furl because a bolt, or some other small part has been lost, and a trip to blacksmith shop or loundry is neces- sary to replace it. This waste ol valuable time might be prevented by a. little forethought or examination or the implement before It was te- quired tor use. In many cases im- plements are purchased which the farmer could well do without. This is another frequent cause of loss. It a farmer has more horses than are required to carry on the work of lhc tarm he :hould sell those he does not need, it a figure at all reasonable can be obtained, The cow which does not yield enough milk or butter to pay a. good profit on Mr keep shouldébe disposed of, and her pl R while INJUNCTION CASES ADJOURNED '(l fe William T, Simpson, ot Cincinnati proposes starting the Ingest hen new on with, ttear Dupont, Ind.

Such seed is usually badly mixed with foreign seeds, so that the farm becomes over-run with weeds which not only replace useful crop» but entail a vast amount ol labor to get nd of. The division ot a. tarm into small or irregular tields often provides numerous breeding places for weeds in the lance miners Another leak which takes money out or the farmer's pockw is neglect in keeping tences and buildings m proper repair.
