There are no new features worthy of note here in live stock, and shippers are quietly awaiting the opening of navigation, but are doing very little business. The local market was dull and neglected as is usually the case after the easter markets and it is almost impossible to give, quotations owing to the small offerings. We quote: Good :butchers, 4 to So: medium, 3 to 4c: culls, 2 to 3c; sheep, 4 to 41c; lambs, 4 to 50 : hogs, $5.50 to $5.60, and calves, $3 to $8. The cattle market was almost deserted to -day, as the butchers have enough of beef on hand to last for a week, and they want to rednce their stocks a good deal before purchasing any more. THE BRITISH CATTLE MARKET Liverpool. April 18,—The market was unchanged here to -day for States cattle, maiden heifers and steers making about 50, sinking offals. The arrivals continue very heavy, but the outlook for the Cana- dian trade is much better. TORONTO LIVE STOCK MARKETS Aoont 22 loads, including one T'aitd which came in yesterday, were , ,".6ed on the market this morning. The briskness which characterized trading in several leading lines to -day was unexpected, the general impression being_ that local butchers were well -Fitoeleld- for the Easter trade. There was a fair at- tendance of buyers and with the light run there was a fair prospect for seeing the market well cleaned out before the close. There was a fair demand from local butch- ers, and with the comparatively small num- ber of cattle offered most of the sale stook had changed hands by noon. Prices were about steady at last week's figures. A few loads of extra choice butchers cattle sold at 4; good to choice do, 34 to 3i -c; fair to good heifers and steers, 3 to 3fc, and inferiors rough cattle, n to 30 per lb. FIGURES ON BABIES. --- A baby is born -at every- beat- of-the—hu- man heart. This is more than one for every tick of the clock. These "living jewels" (as the poet calls babies) "dropped unstained from heaven" take wings and fly back whence they came one for every minute of the day. From January 1 to December 31 between 38,000,000 and 40,000-. 000 living jewels are dropped into this cold world. There are more baby girls than boy babies. The proportion of female births to male births is as 100 to 90. So that between 2,000,000 and 3,000,000 more girls are born in the world each year than boys. There is always a surplus of women, and the extra number of girl babies keeps up the supply. The rate of infant mortality is enor- mous. In round numbers 5,000,000 babies never live long enough to talk, 5,000,000 more never have a chance to walk or run, and 5,000,000 never get old enough to go to school. If you are good at figures get your paper and pencil and try this sum. Here is a simple problem in arithmetic: A baby is barn to -day (1892). Now, suppose its ancestors had married at the age of 21 from the time of our Lord—fifty-six gen- erations, how many grandfathers has that baby had? The answer, in round numbers, will be three figures followed by fifteen ciphers. Professor Proctor one time figur- ed that if from a single pair each husband and wife had married at the age of 21 for 5,000 years the population of the earth, if there had been no deaths, would now be 2,199,915 followed by 144 ciphers. Suppose that each baby born this year weighed eight ponnds ; look at the combin- ed weight I It would take half a dozen cradles of the size, capacity and strength of our new steel war cruisers to hold the infants. When twins arrived in Artemns Ward's family somebody called it an epi- sode. "Yes," said Artemus, "two episodes waying about eighteen pounds jintly." In the foregoing baby figures we have allowed for episodes. . Gordon's block, Stratford. was destroyed by fire early Tuesday morning.
