lowing description of it:
1t works on the principle of the

size at the rate of ~ 900 an hour, and
with all the expense Of distribution aud
making-up included, the cost of compo

about three and one half pence per

that ferforators and composers of double

A CHANCE FOR Dun BREADsrurFs.
-European kilograms represent that
the wheat crop in Great Britain is dis.
astrously deficient. We learn also that
the crop 10 France is much below the
average, though that of oats, rye and
other cereals is pretty good. In the
case of the British crop the deficiency
arises chiefly from an unfayorable season.
In France il is the result of the war
andinterruption OF agricultural industry.
Unfortunate as this is for people Of
these countries it will be an advantage
to the United States, for there will be a
greater demand for our breadstuffs.
