In 1873 we imported from Great Brit-
ain goods to the value of F68522, 7 7 G, and
'from United States :"47, 735,G78. From
that time on our imports from Great
a Britain have decreased, and from 'United
States increased. During -the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1807, our imports from
G. B. were only ;29,412,188, and from
'U- S. e01,019,041. We purchased from
the Mother Country in 1897 less than
]zalf as much from our neighbors across
the line. With trade in this connection
the duties on British goods were reduced
123per cent., and in the following year
a further reduction of 25 per cent. was
mrade. At the end of the fiscal year
1898, our imports from Great Britain. had
;increased by over 3 million dollars, our
.American imports by 17 million, At the
end of the last fiscal year the respective
increases were 43 and 141nillioudollars.
'Tho preference on British goods has now
'been increased to 3313 per cent.

The bill passed by the Provincial Legis-
lature, providing for the regulation of
the width of wagon tires is an import-
ant one. It provides that no whell-

animals shall carry a burden of 2,000
founds if fitted with tires less than 3

W. T. R.�Preston, Canada's Imigration
.,Agent in Europe, has recently arrived in
'Toronto, and gives a very interesting ac-
count of his travels. He has visited all
the countries of the old world with the
exception of Spain, Portugal, Greece
ague Turkey. His principal work was in
Galicia, where he found the people ex-
tremely clean, and well-to-do for a
Iaeasant class.
In the Legislature last week Mr. Ross
alunounced the intention of the govern-
za.ent to appoint a commission to inquire
into and report. upon the subject of
municipal assessment. This is a matter
that urgently demands public considera-
taon. Our assessment laws have too
often been caused by centralization of
bapital and growth of corporations to
abift the burden of taxation upon the
aihoulders of those least able to bear it.
The Department of Agriculture has
issued a very valuable little booklet,
"The Weeds of Ontario," by Prof. Har-
aiston, of Guelph. The weeds dealt
'with include thistle, mustard, wild oat,
rag weed, ex -eye daisy, burdock, chess,
rliandelion, lamb's quarters, purslane,
hound's tongue and 24 others. Each
'weed is fully described, it's common and
