CHiNA'S INTERIOR.
Something About WHAT a French TRAY,
Saw and Heard.

Saw and Heard.
The latest Hong Kong newsnano,
contain accounts of a notable journey !,
that country just completed by M. Pow
Boel. He started last year from Shot,
ghai for Chungking. on the Unaa,
Yangtse, and travelled from tbeeppe@
alone, except for his Chinese serysn,
through the provinces of Slechuap arI
Kweichow to Kwelyang. From Kvsf
wang he proceeded to Yunnan, srI
thence to Manao, ultimately reach
Mengtze, whence he entered Tonnn;ss
and travelled south to Halphong =.
which port his journey terminated N
Boel, who travelled in Chinese custom
was not molested during the wba, I
course of his travels, but found M'
populace in Szechuan very stroDsr
anti-foreign, and much excited oye
the demonstrations that had been nn :
up against the missionaries in the cits
along the Yangtse.
In kweichow and Yunnan he fonr3
the peasantry very friendly and weTN
disposed, and the mandarins in n /
latter province especially treated him
with great courtesy and considerstim
He declares Szechuan to be great an !.
rich province, with which a vast trads1
might be developed, people being mon,
cultivated and better Oft than those E
most of the other provinces. Yuma 3
M. Boel considers to be extraordnarIM
rich in minerals. The copper mines an j
wonderful, fabulously rich, and noyso
easily worked. There are also prcdua =
i've coal mines, and gold, silver and 4, II
mines. In the hands of Western povp q
Yunnan would soon be great centre
activity and population instead of
present, having vast stretches of com IS
try untitled and unpopulated Whenn 81
his way up the Yangtse last year II
Chungking, M. Boel stopped for a sho ii
time at Hankow and visited the Icl 81
roy's (Chang Chihtung) iron works ~
Hanyang, which, he says, were then n|
advanced toward completion. M
The iron ore with which the wolil IS
will be supplied comes from min
about thirty miles distant, now beirI e
connected with Hanyang by ligik Il
railway. M. Boel is of opinion that ID S
ore is good and ought to make a GOD
railway iron. He also visited the eyk
tensive cotton spinning mills ests
lished by the Vlceroy at Wuchap s.
After arrival at Halphong the traveiI
made q tour through Tonquin and A
nam, visiting Hue, which he descrb
as curious and interesting, but squah
even for an Oriental capital, all thee
outside the royal and official precinC 81
being very mean and poverty-stricks
He is very favorably impressed wit 8S
the prospects of Tonquin, which on o<
wants capital to develop it into high Nl
prosperous country. He paid visit as
the Hongay mines, and was much
tonished and pleased with what he So
there. The vastness of the coal depn
it's and the extensive works undertakt
show with what faith and enterpr
the mines are being exploited z|
Boel, who arrived at Hongko ng on Jun Ia
% from Haiphog, will, after shc
stay there and in Canton, 60 north ~
again visit Pekin.

Cows.

The wild COW gives just milk
enough to rear the young, and then
dries up" The modern, high bred
dairy cow does great deal better
than that, especially when she gives
from seventy to ninety pounds of
milk a day. But the wild COW, or
one but slight remove from her.
can still be seen on a good MANY
farms where owners hate "book

The Sheep.

1T is an old maxim that sick
sheep never gets we'll, but this may
be due to old-time modes of manage
ment. All sick sheep should be re-
moved from the flock and placed in
warm quarters on straw bedding.
Dryness and clean quarters are more
beneficial to sheep than medicine.

The Great Map of the World Proposed.
From the New York Sum-

From the New YORK sum-
At the Geographical Congress i'll
Berne a year ago Prof. Penck pro-
posed the publication of map of
the entire world on uniform scale
of in I, 900, 900, or about sixteen
statute miles to the inch, the various
nations to take part in the produc
ton of the map. The proposition
was favorably entertained, and a
committee was appointed to take
steps for its realization. The geo.
graphers of various nations, on the
whole, have received the idea with
favor, and there seems to be no
doubt that the map will be produc-
ed.
Each sheet of the map up to 60
degrees north latitude will embrace
s degrees in each direction. The
more northern sheets will embrace
10 degrees of longitude. The rep
resentation of the whole earth in
Guiding the sea, will require $50
of these sheets, while the land
alone may be shown on 769 sheets.
1t is proposed to give great atten-
ton to physical and political feat
ures, DR.. Ravenstein, the English
map-maker, says the rivers will be
| in blue and the hill in brown. Con
tour lines will be drawn at eleva-
tons of 100, 800, 500 and 1900 me-
tiers, and the areas inclosed by
them are to be tinted.
| 1t is expected that sheets which
| deal with countries already topo-
| graphically surveyed will be en-
graved on copper. The remaining
sheets will probably be litho-
graphed. The Greenwich meridian
will be accepted for the entire map,
and all attitudes are to be marked
in meters. The Official spelling of all
countries using the Latin alphabet
is to retained. Other alphabets art
to be transliterated in accordance
. with a system to be agreed upon,
while names in unwritten langua
ges will be spelled phonetically. L
is estimated that the cost of an edi
ton of 1000 copies of this map
+ showing only the land surface, viii
, be S957,I9o, and as the sale of thu
> first edition at rs a sheet would
t produce only S478,595, the defci
would have to be made up by tn
Governments concerned or by lib
; eral private patrons.
Prof. Ravenstein says he see
nothing Utopian in the scheme
Difficulties may arise as to the spell
, ing of the names and the introdnc
o ton of the meter, but the essentia
= thing, to his mind, is the produc
y ton of a map on a uniform scale.
