Milverton, Exeter and other brands of Flour SEED A SPECIALTY int WANG4RAM ADVANCE Takes Large Amount To Feed .John Bull. The provieiondng of the British Isle le one of the :warvele of the world. The foreign produce imported ie by far the largest item in the national food bill. It ie imported from praeti. tally every country on the globe and totals $1,875,000,000 a year, rather lees than a third of which ie credited to British oversea poesessione. The largest individual contribution, $175,000,000 worth of food, emelt from Argentina, Of other countries outside of Europe the United $tatee comes next, with about $10,000,000 less, followed by India, with $125,000,- 000; Canada. with $100,000,000; Aue- traria, with $70,000,000 ; New Zealand, with $50,000,000 and so on through a list of eighty or ninety separate coun- tries down to Afghanistan's modest contribution of $3,18Q worth of dried raisins. In, these bills-- the figures given are for 10I2 - the largest amounts paid to the respective countries were for meat front Argentina, wheat and tea, from India, wheat from Canada, wheat and meat from Aus- tralia, mutton from New Zealand and wheat and bacon from the United States. There is stili one figure to be added which surpasses all the rest in interest, not on account of ite magni- tude but for precisely the opposite reason. Eight years ago the imports of chilled and frozen meat from the United States were valued at more than $125,000,000. In 10I2 they had sunk to $75,000,000, Much From Denmark. In Europe there are three countries ---Denmark, the Netherlands and Ger- many -each of which exports to us food to the value of $50,000,000 or more. The Danish and Dutch ex ports total $105,000,000 and $70,000,- 000 respectively, It seems almost in- credible that Denmark, one of the smallest countries of the world, should be able to supply us with food, chiefly butter and eggs, worth more than a quarter of the value of our food im- ports from all the British possessions abroad, even though some allowances must be made for the fact that Den- mark draws from Russia part of the supplies which she exports to this country. The case of Ireland is even more striking. Not many persons realize that she ie great Britian'a largest provisioner, with a total of $150,000,- 000 worth of food a year. In 1912 she supplied the sister island with $10,000,- 000 worth more meat than Argentina ; with more butter than any other country, but Denmark ; more eggs than any but Russia and four times as much poultry as her nearest competi- tor. A Substantial Existence. The pastor of a well•known Boston church was calling a short while ago on a dear old lady, one of the "pillars" of the church to which they both be- longed, Looking upon her sweet, motherly face, which bore few tokens of her ninety-three years of earthly pilgrimage, he was moved to ask her: `•My dear Mrs, Adams, what has been the chief source of your wonderful strength and sustenance during all these years? What do you consider has been the real basis of your ex- traordinary vigor of mind and body, and has been to you an unfailing com- fort throu,gh joys and sorrows which must come to all of God's creatures ? Tell me, that I may pass the secret to others, and, if possible, profit by it myself." The good pastor waited with un- usual eagerness for the old lady's reply, which she gave, after a mo- ment's reflection, while her kindly old old eyes were dimmed with tears.

Reeentity there has been Borne ob- jection in England over the traffic in titles, which appears to be somewhat scandalous, It is not that so many astonishingly mediocre men necessari- ly want to be lords (according to Mfr 0, Locker-Lsmpson) but only that their wives want to be ladies. It also appears that the business of supplying American heiresses with titled husbands is one not to be neglected. If making a dull person, who has never been of any earthly use to anybody, a lord gives him th e power to bring over another fortune to the mother country, is this not worth while? Another reason is that the nobility must be preserved by bringing in fresh blood. Inasmuch as the average itembar of the House of Lords is the dullest human being yet classified, it is natural that care should be taken not to have him recruited by anyone over- stocked with brains.
