What it Cost.
There has been a good deal of specula -
ion lately, not only as to the cost of
the Zulu war, but also as to how the
expenditure in connection with.it was
Wig met. The London Eonomist
points Out that the weekly revenue
returns show in the current year the
outgoings from the Treasury for the
supply services have been less than in
the corresponding period of 1878, and it
was evident, therefore, either that these
returns did. not show the whole expen-
diture, or that the war outlaywas much
wailer than was generally believed. All
doubt as to the meaning of the returns
bag, however, been set at rest by an
explanation which Sir George Camp-
helledicited from the Chancellor of the
Exchequer the other night. The
advances for carrying on the war have,
it appears, been made principally from
the Treasury chest, which consists of a
aunt of L1,000,000, and is intended, to
constitute a species of banking fund
mainly for the purpose of facilitating,
through the purchase of speeie or bills,
remittance for ; the Colonial services.
The fund is constantly being added. to
by remittances from the colonies, and
diminished by drafts Made upon it by
the colonies, but at the close of the
fiscal year the transactions Must be so
adjusted as to leave in it the statutory
balance of £1,000,000. The advances
now made out of the chest for the Zulu
war will, therefdrerequire to be replaced
after Parliament has voted the neces-
sary credits, but in the meantime they
do not appear in the statements of the
Treasury expenditure. So much for the
mode of the payment; now as to }its
amount. Slime the beginning of the y ar,
Sir Stafford Northcete stated, £2O,-
000 has been confined to South Afrioa
in specie, and £888,000 in bills drawn -
upon the country at long dates. The
payments for the year amount to £1,-
140,000, which, with the £1,500,000
spent prior to March 31, raises the
amount actually paid in oiae way or
another to £2,940,000. These pay-
ments, however, are only a portion of
the total cost. Considering the delay
in communication with the Cape, it
may be fairly assumed that no accounts
dealing with a period later than the end
of May can as yet have been received,
examined, and settled. In all probabil-
ity, therefore, a sum as large as that
already paid. must now be due; and, if
we add, to that the expense of bringing
baok the troopes we may fairly calculate
that, even if the war is now brought to
a close, its cost cannot have been less
than between £4,000,000 and £5,000,000.
And all this vastsuna of money, to say
nothing of the valuable lives lost, is
being squandered itt a cruel war on a
race of savages whose - greatest crime
seems to have been that they occasion-
ally " lifted " cattle from the Dutch
settlers who are too mean to pay the
oost of their own protection.
Bee Farming.
The Globe of , Saturday last gives a
most interesting account of the bee
farm of a Mr. Jbnes, of Becton, South
Simcoe, from Which we cull the follow-
ing as likely to prove interesting to
many of our readers, and. possibly be
the means of inducing some of them
to add to the productiveness of our coun-
try by engaging in be farming on a
moderate scale.1
The Mr. Jones in qnestion has four
bee -yards located at the corners of a
square, whose diameter is some four
miles. Eacb yard consists of about an
acre of ground, planted with fruit trees,
enclosed with a tight board fence, to.
keep mit dogs and like intrud-
ers, and having a small house for the
proprietor or his assistants, and a house
for wintering the bee e in. Mr. Jones'
four bee -yards contain respectively 250,
150, 150 and 70 hives each; as each
hive is estimated to contain 30,000 bees,
these 620 hives contain nearly nineteen
million bees, and have already produc-
ed this year 50,000 pounds of honey,
which, at 15 cents per pound, gives
$7,500, and are yet expected. to yield
another 20,000 pounds this year, in
which case the revenue from this Sim -
use bee -farm will foot up D.Q less than
$10,500.
Of course this result is the fruit of
years of patient labor and of the experi-
ence thus gained. and it would be very
unwise for the inexperienced to rush
into bee -keeping on a large scale, with.
the expectation of reaping a similar re-
ward to that of Mr. Jones, but what
roan has done Man can do, and we have
no doubt but there are many ha every
township in the country who, with a
little practical. experience, could add.
very materially: to the sources of their
income by turning their attention to
bee -keeping, and for the benefit of those
who may be dispoeed to give it a trial,
we may add that the success of Mr.
Jones indicates that it should be begun
on 5 small scale at first and increased
only as experience is gained. A. few
hives costing only a small amount of
money is all that is necessary to begin
'with, and if *successful with these the
stock will rapidly multiply itself, while
if unsuccessful from any cause the loss
involved will be little more than that of
a little tirne and trouble.

Th ' clothes are beautifully white and the washing
el,
is d ne in much less time -Mrs. M. P. Hayes.
"1 used Dobbins' Electric Soap, according to di-
rections, and fornad the clothes whiter than when
washed in the old way, and in half the usual time
-Mrs. M. Y. McLean." "1 have tested Dobbins'
Eleetric Soap, and am highly satisfied with the
result. I believe it capable of doing all the wrap-
per claims for it; and Most confidently recom-
mend it as economizing both time and labor, and
as doing its work well -Mrs. T. Goldsmith."'
"Having given Dobbins' Electric Soap a fair trial,
I think it is all the manufacturers represent it to
be -Mrs. R. T. Coleman." I desire all my friends
and customers to give this Soap one trial, so they
may know just how good the best soap in the
