dT0 III ouCH Ill ENTHUSIASTICALLY COLulClOn
as the present budget again reveals.
It is however of no use simply to shut
our eyes to the evil it is much better
that every citizen should know that,
while the estimated revenue amounts
to about S150,OOO, the estimated ex-
penditure amounts to nearly $240, 900
and that there is therefore an estimat-
ed deficit of nearly $50, 900 Gloomy
as this statement is, there are two '"ifs"
which would make it almost satisfac-
tory. Unjust be admitted that they are
very large "ifs", but still possible;
one is, if the Factory continues sue
c%essful, in which case S45, 900 goes
off the expenditure side; the other is,
if the Military force is supported from
Home, in which case another $4,000
goes off; and then the revenue and
expenditure are about balanced. This
would be by no means a hopeless
condition. From it we might hope to
advance so as to get a surplus for
paying off old scores, and at any rate
would not be mourning new debts.
1t will be observed that the Facto-
~ Question becomes a very important
one in this connection, if only view
ed in regard to the guar antee of the
Colonial Governmnnt to the Share
holders; but the President shows us
in his speech that it has a much wider
significance; and although there are
great differences Of opinion on this
subject, we believe the President to
be right when he describes the estab-
lishment of factories as "an enterprise
on which the whole Island, and con-
s~equently the existence Of every Es-
ta~ta-ownership depends" What is
the value Of experiments made / II
sundry boiling houses to determine
whether it pays to deliver canes to
the factory, when put by the side of
the experiments OF Demerara and
the French colonies? Those are
community experiments, and show
that the factory system is benifi-
cial to the colonies as such and after
that we do not want experiments to
prove whether individuals benefit or
not by it. What gives prosperity to
the whole must give prosperity to the
parts, or at least to all such parts
as deserve existence. Considering
the great importance of the Factory
system to us it is encouraging to
learn that the first attempt, after many
failures, is at last beginning to sue
ceed. But then ONE the serious
drawback that seven estates entirely,
and thirteen others partly, have with
drawn from the Factory. If this
statement should be read in Marti-
nique it would produce the greatest
establishment. "Withdrawn" the
landed proprietor would exclaim, Il
couldn't withdraoc, I an bound by
my contract" "WithdrawnP the
Factory Manager would say, "they
could never have been SO foolish as
to start without contracts" Ii a WISH
tor from St. Croix were at hand an
explanation would soon be forthcom-
ing. We do not here mean to make
any accusations, but merely to state
facts. There is a contract, and 1t says

making which is below.
The greatest cleanliness must be oh.
served. Their cages should be cleaned
early in the morning daily. A piece OF
uninked paper placed on the floor OF
the cage removed daily facilitates this
process. If vermin infest them small
bit of sulphur may be placed under the
paper.
Mocking birds delight in bath, as
do canaries, daily. If the bath becomes
soiled before used. remove and re.
place with clean water. They will not
enter it If there is anything in it.
If you wish to teach them. sing O,
whistle single bars of music often in
their hearing. You will be delighted
by hearing them mock you very soon
They are fond eff company, and in ad.
dition to the notes of all birds placed
near them, will initiate many sounds,
such as the "meouw "of the cat. the
barking of dogs, etc., etc.
Mocking birds should have large
cages, with light board backs, kept
scrupulously clean; cover the bottom
OF tray with paper, then on it sprinkle
sand, fine gravel and bones that have
been burnt and powdered. Hang o
small bag of sulphur on top of the
cage, and red pepper, in pods, should
be tied to the sides. Give meat Of
some sort every day; beefsteak half an
inch long, the size Of the finger, cut
crosswise with scissors in small bits;
grssshoppers, angle worms and white
garden grubs; also, lapples, berries and
lettuce leaves are good for them. Take
an Irish potato, boil or bake it, mash
fine with hard-boiled egg and little
mite OF red pepper. Use a large bath
dish in the morning, and remove after
the bird has bathed. Avoid hanging
In draughts. If sick, give brown
spider; sometimes warm bath will re.
lieve it. When punches come on the
head rub on camphor carefully, lest il
get in the eyes. Keep the perches very
