Sra,--The general principle that an uudrie clearance of the timber is harmful to the fertility of the land is uuderetood, by very many people who take little prac- tical interest in forestry tor the reason that they are unaware of the extent to which the process of strippiug away the woods has been carried. It needs only a perusal of the forestry report for 1891 to convince the most indifferent that the danger from this source is by no means remote but a peril that must be faced at once UnieSS our agricultural interests are to suffer 'greatly. The report reviews the existingcondi- tion of the counties of the Province as regards forestry and disclosee a state of offal's ehich ought to arousepublie opinion to the urgent need of measures to arrest destauction and preserve the remaining forego. It ought to afford food for reflec- tion to learn that in some localities the process of clearance has been so thorough that only some five pet cent, of the total area ot the land remains in timber. In many neighborhoods wood has become so scarce that the farmers have difficulty in procuring e supply of fuel, being obliged to haul it /Ma a distance to their homes. The greatest injury inflicted upon agri- culture by the cutting down of the forests however is the alteration for the worse in the climate and the fertility of the soil. Observers of climatic conditions for many veers are practically unanimous in testify- ing to the increasing frequency and severity of droughts and floods the only assignable • cause for which is the wholesome clearance of the forests. The rain fall is now rapidly dissipated whereas when a considerable area of the country was heavily timbered. a large volume of moisture was absorbed by the light soil and vegetation and given out twin gradually mitigating the dryness and heat of the aurnmer S00,5013. The creeks and. streams which formerly ran full all the year round have dwindled in volume or dried up altogether in aome instances. As a consequeuce both crops and stock suffer greatly from drought whenever there is a long dry spell in summer. It will thus be seen that no class has a stronger or more direct practical •concern in forestry than the farmers. Yet the number ca them who throw any active interest in those measures inteuded to ar- rest the evil is comparatively fear. The Ontario Government deserves much credit for having grappled successfully with the problem of the prevention of destructive fires, which are now of rare occurrence, and also for the setting apart of a forestry reserve in the northern portion of the Pro- vince which will be kept permanently timbered. But it must be remembered that the Government irs not in a position to do everything that is needed, as the lands in the settled part of Ontario where the erne and deforestation are necessarily greatest are mainly in private hands. The farming community 'should tete the matter up themselves. Men of local in- fluence ought to set the example of replant- ing and the preservation of suoh strips and patches of woodlands remain. Pub • lie opinion should :be educated as to the urgent necessities of the case or else in a few years far worse injuries than any already inflicted upon our ;prooperity will be experienced. Let me say in conclusion that I shall he pleased to send a copy of :the report free of expense to anyone sending me his name and address. R. W. PHIPPS, 2511 Richmond St, West, Toronto. • • It is gratifying to know that the export trade in Canadian cheese has beer. very successful this year. Up to date the exports from the port of Mon- treal to Great Britain have exceeded $5.000,000 in value, and there is gill left the August, September, and Octo- ber product to market. Up to the pre- sent time factorymen have experienced no difficulty in selling their goods at re- munerate prices. * * * The estimated :cost of the World's Fair at Chicago is $18.0003000, which is a reduction from the figures given the Dockery Committee of about $4,000,000. This, of course, means the cost to the corporatioo. The actual total cost will be somewhere in theneighborbood of $25,000,000, the owners of concessions meeting the additional expense. "The fair will be just as complete and splen- did as it was ever planned to be," is the assurance of the News. • • British officers are now on their way to the Pacific coast for the purpose of inquiring into the facultiet offered by the Canadian Pacific railway for the transport ef troops. The information which is being. gathered is doubtless sought for in new of the threatening outlook on the northern frontier of India. Should war break out between Britain and Russia, Afghanistan will be the battle ground and Canada's trans- continental highway will biti the prin- cipal route by which the armed forces of the Mother Country will be moved to the field of action. • • • The tride returns for the first month of the fiscal year are made up. The ex- ports show an increase of nearly one million dollars. In July 1891-92, the exports were valued at $11,781,124, and last month at 312,717,850. In regard to imports, the Customs Department, _ 'Commencing with the present fiscal year, is tor the first time including the returns from British Columbia in the monthly statement. The reports for last month totalled $9,545,262,as against 36,807,61518 July lof last year, while the duty collected amounted to $1,702,- 088, as against $1,015,900 last year. The increased duty is idoubtleses due to the inclusion of the British Cdutnbia returns. * * * The Ontario Bureau of Industries has just issued its August crop bulletin. It THE iViN.17:8 cir.' THE WEER'. The condition of the °reps of Ontario, as deseribed in the last Government bulletin, has caused some diceppointineet. The ex - (mealy° rainfall of June, nearly three times as heavy as last year, had a serious effect upon wheatlYkaoh of it lodged and rust was prevalent throughout the country. July somewhat retrieved the situation, but towards the end of the month the great heat • began. to have an effect upon the backward grains, which were unduly forced to matur- ity, and had not sufficient thne th fill. The result has been that the yield of fall wheat per acre is somewhat less than last year. Spring wheat appears to have suffered from the same causes and is not considered to be as promising as fan wheat. The quality of the grain, however, ie expeeted to be good, which will compensate to a- large extent for the light yield. Of barley, un- fortunately the same tale is told, the exces- sive rains and. hot weather having affected both its weight and color, Oats promise to be the most satisfactory crop of any, and do not appear, except in isolated cases, to have suffered in the same way as the wheats and barley. As might be expected, hay and roots have profited as much by the rains and heat as the various grains suffered, and from all parts of the Province reports of magnificent pasturage and hay have been received. *a* The exports of cheese since the opening of the season have been very heavy, The total exports from Canada, this season up to last week were considerably larger than for the same time last year. The total value of this year's shipments so far amounts to upwards of $3,000,000. Values have been 'fairly well maintamed on this side, but the prices in England are not just what ship- pers would like to see them. The cable showed a decline of 6d. tide week, and the price is now at 46s, for both white and colored. states that with the exception of oats, • all cereal crops in the Province will be ratheit under the average, both in quality • and quantity. Owing to the heavy June rajas, fall wheat will be below last year, while the hot spells of July ripened it • too rapidly. Rust has attacked it to some extent, and spring wheat suffers even more from ,the same cause, and midge is also prevalent in some sections. The damage is not suflicient to make the crop a failureJune rain has also discolored barley and :ceused an exces- • sive growth of straw, beaides which the heat in July ripened it before the grain had properly filIed out. • The oat crop • w',.11 be A 1 in quality and quantity, Ryetoo, will be good, but peas vary, being better in the east than in western sections.

An immense gathering of Salyationists toot place in the auditorium, iToronto, on Thursday,to hear the statement of Brigadier Philpot, who is at the head of the :revolt against Commander Booth and the army management. Philpot made a reply to the -charges against himself, end. ;,the audienoe appeared thoroughly eatiefied, and unani- mously passed a resolution of indoreetion and condemning Booth, and another pledgmg themselves to support Philpot. The brigadier then made mayoral serious charges against Commissioner Resse,Booth's predecessor, of extravagance, and also of selling army properties of which no mount was reported. The self-denial !fund of 312,000 last yeay,he said,also was not used to defray army debt o in Canada, but was banked in Toronto, for the private use of the head officers, and that these principal officers lived m luxury while the poor offic- ers at outlying posts were starving. Char- ges were also.naade against La Mareschelle Booth while here of gross extravagance in living and travelling. * * .A letter front Hot.

Over 200 men from the Twentyodue street Carnegie mills at Lawrenceville quit work in sympathy with the loeked.out men. Gertie Camo, the balloonist, was killed at the Detroit Exposition by falling from a great height. Her parachute failed to work. The International Typothettie has placed $100,000 at the disposal of its Pittsburir members to fight the job printers' boycott hi that city. The British steamer Winnifred has been captured in Behring Sea by. the United States steamer Rush. She is held on a charge of illicit sealing. In view of the rapid travel of the cholera epidemic westward, the London Lancet advises the immediate opening of training schoola for cholera nurses. The steamer City of New York has beat- en the eastward record across the Atlantic. Her time from Sandy Hook lightship to Queenstown is 5 days 16 hours. The condition. of Rind= Jews who Rasa through Paris forAmerica is extreiaely hlthy, and fears are expressed that they will bring cholera to this continent. The London Lancet takes a gloomy view of the cholera situation, and thinks that with modern facility and, rapidity of travel England can scarcely escape a visitation. Several very bad cases of cholera have made their appearance at Antwerp, and have created. great consternation throughout the city. Five deaths were reported. Dr. Thorne, chief of the sanitary division of the English Local (level -unmet 13oartl, says he has grave doubts of the ability of the board to keep cholera out of London. PROF.

He has had a great deal to do in shaping the polica.r of university mat- ters in the past and it is conceded that no one, with the exception °Dlr. Blake, has a better grasp of the university situation in Ontario than Prof. London. *8* There is a downright scare in Europe over the cholera. In Hamburg the daily mor- talityhas reached 150 and the figures are growing. Two or three other places in Germany have also been visited by the scourge. In Russia, between 2,000 and 4,000 people are dying daily. England is becoming greally alarmed, and no wonder. Three fatal cases are reported at Gravesend a.nd two cases of sicknesz are cabled 'from Glasgow. These were all imported from Hamburg and this city ie responsible for scattering the disease to many other points. As Montreal is in direct communication with Hamburg ft would not be a very big surprise to seo the epidemic brought to Canada by 1) s St Lawrence. Cholera in the past has jenerally visited America. in the year following its appearance in Eu- rope. At the resent time a dark cloud seems to be threatening the World's Fair at Chicago next summer.

The prisoner is a young. woman and the victims are her grey -hatred parents. The trial of Lizzie Borden promises to furnish the most sensa- tional story of the day. It has been likened to the celebrated Leavenworth case and in- deed it bears a striking similarity to it in all its details. The father and mother were found dead in their dwelling frightfully hacked. by some sharp instrument. Bridget Sullivan, the servant girl in the Borden family gave some important testimony &gains the prisoner on Saturday. She stated that on the morningof the murder she went upstairs at five minutes to 11 to lie down and. rest, leaving Lizzie down- stairs with her parents. h'he fell asleep and about 15 minutes after 11 she was sum- moned by Lizzie who said her father was dead. The neighbors were called in and the body of Mrs. Borden was found in another part of the house. The prisoner can give no satisfactory account of her whereabouts in those eventful 20 minutes that Bridget Sullivan was upstairs. In looking for a motive for the arima it' has been proved beyond ques- tion that the Borden home life was not all that would be expected in a family whose debts were paid, and whose means were more than 8500,000. Warmed over mutton frequently served, and a daughter who did not dine with her father and. mother, and. who thus far has not been shown to have asked • about her mother's healthafter a dangerous sickness, girls who for the most part live in their rooms and said nothing of their going and coming—all these things are being discussed and are be- ing commented on as giving strength to the Government's suspicions. .An official who stands high in the Government counsels was asked by a reporter his opinion concerning the gailt or innocence of Lizzie Borden. He i said n substance, "I have no hesitation in saying that I believe her guilty of the crime.'

A novel sight is presented by the encamp- ment at Lyons railway station of a number of Jews from Odessa, whom the steamship lines refuse to take' to New York on ac- count of the quarantine there. Two generals and one colonel of the French army, who forced the troops to go through manceuvres during the recent intense heat, have been placed on the retired list by order of the Miuister of War. Cholera has broken out in all parts of Hamburg and its suburbs, and is particular- ly virulent in the harbor quarter. New York is adopting very stringeut quarantine regulations to prevent the introduction of the disease by ocean steamers. Gen. Ponsonby, the Queen's private sec- retary, in conveying to Mr. Gladstone Her Majesty's command -to form. a Ministry, stipulated that Mr. Lalaouchere should not be selected to fill any post in the Govern- ment.
