The statement volunteered by a Demo
cratic organ that the farmers are secnre
from foreign competition and need no pro-
lection, is commended to the farmers of
Aroostook county who are brought into
direct competition with their Dominion
neightors. The attempt to prejudice the
American farmer against the tariff will
prove as mach Of a iasco As did the at

When the Mckinley bill was under con

Of their position they showed the eompe-

Interesting Facts About Teleqraphic Cables.

There are now in existence I ,I6s sub
marine cable sections with total length
of about 1901 nautical miles of cable.
OF these 1913 sections. or a length of II ,:ss;s
miles, are under the administration
of different governments. France
takes the lead with 3,26o miles
Great Britain follows with 500
miles, Germany with 80 miles and Italy
with ,0a7 miles. The balance of 335
cables, with total length of 1879 ,62s miles,
are the property of private telegraph com
panies. Nearly all this vast length of cable
has been manufactured on the banks of
the river Thames. Italy, however has
now cable factory, and France
last year turned out 1900 miles
from a factory of Calais, and
second factory is now in course of con-
struction. To keep these cables in repair
requires the exclusive services of 81
specially constructed and equipped tele-
graph ships, having a total tonnage of &c.
9i,5 tons. Ten of these are however, kept
almost exclusively for laying operations,
and their tonnage amounts to 30, l3l tons.

Science and AT in Bee. Keeping.

Bookkeeping combines science and art as
do few manual labor pursuits. The pro-
gressive bee-keeper must understand the
natural history of bees, and, therefore. he
must be a student and thinker. He must
use constantly his hest mental faculties as
well as Drawn. Thought and study
when combined with physical effort,
bring real satisfaction and insure en-
thusiasm. Thus the beekeeper is student
and an enthusiast, and is mentally very
wide-awake. He is prepared to lay hold
of new and better methods, which are sure
to be suggested to the man who Is mentally
alert, to see all there is in ani about his
business that VIII help him 10 higher po-
sition. This explains the fact that hardly
year goes by without some new method
or device which is fairly revolutionary in
its influence on Bookkeeping Practice

band Of one of the most ambitious, in
triguing and unscrupulous of German
princesses. Her influence has been bad
for Russia in every way. Her terrible
extravaganza in dress has excited Rus
sian ladies to even greater excesses in
that way than they were won't to indulge
in, which is certainly saying great
deal, for the Russian women have al
ways been with our own fair compatri-
OTIS the best patrons of the most extravs-

and it is to this Mecklenburg princess
that st. Petersburg owes the objection
able habit which has now become so
popular in the grande monde of Russia
Of having roulette tables in all the most
select and "swagger" salons, where very
high play indeed is indulged in.
The play at the house Of Princess
Betsy Baristinksy, for example, is very
high, and young gentleman of fortune
anxious to lose most of his shekels in
gambling by the side of the Neva need
not by any means go to the Yacht club
to do so, but can "put himself on the
straw" as the French say, very easily
by the roulette played at half dozen OF
