The Bobeaygeon Independent is of opinion that there is more money in eggs than in gold mines. and it pro- ceeds to prove it with these figures and statements : The value of the outpnt in gold in Canada last year was approximately *21,280,000. compared with $13,775,000 In the previous year. and $1,140;370 in 1800. Of this amount last year Ontario contrihnted $120,444 ; Yukon district, $18,000,0001 British Columbia, $4,203,- 473, and Nova Scotia, $017,004. Various authorities on the subject of gold mining have made calculations regarding the cost, of producing gold. The calculations differ. but the most reliable is to the effect that every ounce of gold of the value of £3 17s. has involved an expenditure of £4 in its production. Over in North Harvey resider Mrs. Jones, an esteemed subscriber to this journal. and Mrs. Jones keeps poultry and eelle eggs. She obtains on an av- erage about 12 cents it dozen, and her expenditure to produce a dozen eggs is almost nominal. Those eggs are a general source of comfort and pleasure and enjoyment,. In view of the foregoing facts the following gnestfon is submitted for consideration : Does the raising of eggs or the raiadtill of gold as an industry deserve the most, encouragement f nk about it and form yo:1r own o ilio,.
