A loud cali Il heinc made for mis-.

A loud call Is being made for mis-
sionaries in Chilli. Brazil and other
South American States. Romanism,
which in these countries is nothing
more than heathenized Christianity,
has reigned there for 800 years. The
true light is just breaking in, and
powerful reaction in favor OF liberty.
intelligence and religion has COM
menced.
H. II. Johnston, the traveller and
explorer. says he has little interest in
the doctrinal and sectarian aspects OF
Christianity. but he is compelled to adj
nit that missions have been OF great
benefit TO all the heather nations
among whom they have been maintain
ed, in elevating the people in all the
arts and appliances Of peaceful CIVIL
ization.
"A religious society has, been z rm-
ed in Cleveland under the name OF the
Cleveland Evangelization Society, ="
which has bought wagon, with the
intention of having the vehicle driven
through the streets of Cleveland on
Sundays, and OF having addresses
made to the people from it on religious
topics. The clergymen who will make
addresses from the wagon will especial
ly aim to induce their hearers to go to
church.
Mr.. F. d. Phinney, superintendent
OF the Mission Press, at Rangoon, in
writing OF the scope Of missionary s
work, says: There is not missionary
in Burma whose time and talent are

care of a church OF converted heather

resolution that the committee on state

trine of free trade as being taught at the
State university at Lawrence; if so, by
whom, and that they report by bill or
otherwise what, if any, legislation is
necessary to abolish the English titles of
lord chancellor, dean and regent, and
substitute in lieu thereof the American
titles of professor and trustees of the
officers of said institution and for all
other state institutions if the titles are
given bylaws of the state. The house

rHE TOMATO PACK OF 1883.

From the American Grocer of New
York: The annual report of the tomato
pack of the United States and Canada
as compiled by the American Grocer, in
Gicates Il second era of oyerproduction &.
Of tomatoes there were put up last season
3 $40 ,437 cases of two dozen tins each &,
or total Of 10 SOS ,488 cans, costing at
points Of production about Sc 900 200,
and reaching consumers at total eX-
pense of SIS 900 600.
The acreage was largely increased in
all directions, but fortunately Gas the re-
suit shows the weather was unfavorable
to the proper and full development of
the crop, and yet, in spite of cold and
backward season, heavy periods Of rain
fall in some states and long droughts in
others, and early killing frosts in Octo-
Der, the pack turns out to be unusually
large, reaching total of 3 ,319 ,437 cases
against ,8l7 ,048 c&ses in 1887.
The canning industry has grown rapidly
in the Western and Southern states
largely reducing the demand upon Balti-
more, Philadelphia and New York for
such goods. In a few years each section
of the country bids fair to supply its
wants from home canneries. The lead
ing points of production are Maryland
and Virginia, credited with l ,II8 ,733
eases, New Jersey 7S9 1868, Delaware
227 ,030, New York 1877 ,432, Western
states 79G ,599, Eastern states 43 1850,
Canada 70 $500
1t is apparent that the houses for can
ming vegetables are multiplying faster
than the demand warrants The output
of corn far exceeds any previous year,
and similar statement would have been
made in regard to tomatoes had climatic
conditions been as favorable for the to-
mato crop as for sweet corn
OverprodVction benefits consumers, as
it enables the poorest to have at COM
mand at all seasons of the year a full line
of fresh fruits and vegetables at phen-
omenally low prices. Dr. Cyrus Edison
has declared that there is no more whole
some food than canned goods properly
preserved. A can of corn, bean, toma-
toes or peas of good quality can be bought
from q to 10 cents, and extra brands from
u to Is cents.
Certainly the diet of the masses has
been greatly improved since the advent
Of canned goods, which now furnish dur
ing the winter season, at reasonable cost,
a much needed supply of antiscorbutic
food, and it Is fair to assume that to this
Improvement in the variety and quality
of the diet is due in some degree the
average increase in longevity, which is
shown by the vital statistics to be about
two years more than it was a generation
ago.
