Tho instructor '
o .311 this case succeeded
in bringing
tbequality cu'ti' Ity of the cheese
from inferior to first-class.
Some oftl
t e aloin defects noticed
in the cheese in Montreal were as
follows : First, weak in body and
too mtuh. acidity. Second, objection-
able flavors. A weedy flavor, of
what is called an "off" flavor, due
to carelessness on the part of some
person, either patron or maker.
Third, defective finish; but much su-
perior to the general appearance of
cheese marketed in previous years.
No excuse can be made for unwork-
inanlike manner in which some of the
cheese is put up. They are not un-
iform; carelessness is dis pla
l � c.d in
]'nit' ting the cloths on the ends'of the
cheese; the boxes are not properly
trimmed after the cheese are put in

are not high , enoughallowing the

,,..
A St. Petersburg despatch says :—
The prospective failure of the crops
in some of the southern provinces, pas
eibly ettezidant -with famine, and the
necessity of adopting relief measures
is beginning to- attract attention.
;,
'Ile Governments of Xherson, Bes-
sarabia, Taurida, Poltava, and
Kharkofi are principally affected. In
the district of Triaspo the peasants
already have been. compelled to, har-
vest the unripe crops ops to feed the
live stock. Committees have been
appointed to relieve the distress. The
failure of the crops is attributed to
unfavorable weather. In some dis-
tricts no rain has fallen. In many
parts of Bessarabia cattle are being
sold for almost nothing.
