Late Dairy Markets.
CHEESE.

The receipts for the past week in the
Boston produce market have been 809
boxes. There is not much change to re-
port in cheese. Sales of choice factory
continue to be made In lots to the trade at
16@l53c. 7 III, with Ice. as an outside price
for fancy lots. Holders, however, are
more disposed to accept current rates, and
the very strong tone that was noticeable
two weeks ago has disappeared. 1t is un-
derstood that The cheese factories will COM
mence operations much earlier than usual,
aud the prevailing belief is that prices
have reached the highest point of the sta
son.
Utica advices state that anticipation of
the advent of new cheese has weakened the
market somewhat, notwithstanding the
meagerness of the present supply. Last
year the factories opened about three weeks
later than they will this spiiug, and the
regular spring decline did not begin until
the middle of April. Many factories this
spring will reopen on the frat week in
April, and it is probable the decline will
therefore begin soon after that time. The
home inquiry has been light, being, as du-
ring the past two months, from hand to
mouth.
BUTTER.
There has been fair demand In the Bos-
ton produce market this week from the
trade and lest weeks demand is sustained.
Fine fall lots continue very scarce and in
particular request, and some sales have
been made at higher range than our quo
tations, but 25c is an outside for most that

DRY WEATHER FARMING.

A lot of 10, 900 sheep were offered a
few days since in one OF the southern
counties of this state, for five cents a
head. There was neither grass nor
water, and the sheep were not strong
enough to drive any distance. This
instance is only one of many of the
same kind Occurring in southern coun-
ties. Within a few days one land
owner in Keru county was offered IS,
600 for sufficient pasture to carry p
600 head of cattle about three months.
The pasture was alfalfa. growing where
there would have been no native grass
es in such a year as this. There have
been scores of incidents ia this State
during the present year where owners
of large herds of American CT tile and
fiocks of sheep well guarded, were will.
ing to give half of these herds and
flocks to any one who would carry
them over until the next season when
grass should come. And ali the tule
lands this year not under cultivation,
have either been leased for pasture OIL
are occupied by the owners. A largt
area of these lands are cultivated thi:
year without leves, the water in the
rivers and sloughs being low enough tc
give a clear ground surface.-SGI

THE ENLARGED WELLAND CANAL.

The Welland Canal, connecting Lakes
Erie and Ontario, and making a short
link of twenty-seven miles in chain OF
lake navigation 1C00 miles long, not
counting the st Lawrence-whose canals
are also to be enlarged-is in process OF
enlargement, the locks to be. 30 feet
long, 45 feet wide, with depth of IA
feet. All that any canal can do for di-
rect trade TO Europe will be done by this
canal. No other canal TO connect these
two lakes can be made that can compete
with this canal, which has the advantage
of a much shorter route and better ports
at each end. No one of our once great
Grant transcontinental canal schemes
was wilder than the scheme now and
then agitated for making a rival canal on
the American side. The route would be
so inferior that it would be questionable
if free canal would induce vessels tO
use it. as against others with its tolls
The talk by which this scheme was al
ways inflated was that it would greatly
reduce freight on the farmers produce
whereas, in fact, the whole tolls on grain
on the Welland Canal are less than {
cent bushel As to national defence ,ol
canal inside our border in case of war
the talk was still more foolish; for the
proposed route would be under the Ca
madam guns, and, furthermore, if we
were so weak that we could not take the
| Welland Canal, in case of war, we could
not defend our own. The scheme never
had particle of merit.-7He Cincinnati
