All the provinces, with the exception of Ontario, have made great advances in re- spect to providing for the) care of the in. sane. The annual expenditure on account of the insane amounts to about $121, per head per annum, according to the public accounts. In the Province of Ontario the yearly cost per patent is about $142, On- tario has adopted the cottage system in !minim Nova Sontia has the country farm system in part. Qaebec has the farm- in out system. With the exception of Nova Scotia and Quebec, the principle adopted. in the Dominion is State care; and even in the case of these two excep. . tions the institutions are subject to the supervision of Government inspectors. In the UnitedStates, the States of New York, Ohio, Illinois, Kansas, Minnesota, Miasis- sippi. and both the Dakotas, the principle, of State ewe has been established, as against that of country care. New York, after long y ears of trial of it, abolished the country cure system, and enacted in 189J "The State Care Act." • CAUSES OF INSANITY. As to mimes of insanity, the average re- turns from England, France, Denmark, and the United States combined give this result: —Heredity, 24 per cent.; drink, 24 per cent.; busiuess, 12 per cent.; loss of friends, 11 per cent.; sickness, 10 per cent.; various, 19 per cent.A It is difficult to specify the causes of in- sanity in Canada hi the same comprehensive way. But analysis of returns by our best alienists indicates that in Canada heredity is responeible for at least 35 per cent. of the insanity and drink about 4 per cent; sickness produced about 11 per cent. of the insanity in Canada. Drink has compare- tively little effect as a factor in the develop- ment of insanity in Canada, The corresponding table for Canada is as follows :—Heredity, 34.5 per cent.; drink, 3.8 per dent.; busineas, 5.0 per cent.; loss of friends, 2.2 per cent.; sickness, 11.0 per ant.; various, 43.5 per cent.

Mr. Weir, whet vieits America for the purpose of acting as judge of cattie at the Chicago Fair, speaking to an Empire reporter one evening, said that it was a great mistake to prohibit the entry of Canadian, cattle into Scotland and that the prohibition would result in a great loss to thousands of Scotch people. It was a mistake for more reasons than one. In the first place the. commissioners, acting under Mr. Gerdnerayhile quiee honest in the mat- ter, had made a entetake when they had said that the cattle found diseased. were the victims of an infectious disease, Prof. Williams, of the New Veterinary College, ' Edinburgh, and one of the acknowledged cattle experts of Europe, maintained that the pleuro-pneutnonia.deteeted in the Cana- diem cattle was not infectious, Mr, Weir, who has meths a, careful atutly of the case that the commissioners reported on, was et the same °pinkie.
