The CROP Or NOVELS.
Works of Fiction Form the Majority Of
ManuscrIpts Sent to Publishers.

Novels form the largest part of the
book manuscripts received by publish
ing houses, says the Philadelphia
Times. Out of 100 manuscripts re-
ceived during recent fortnight by
a prominent publishing firm so
were novels. In another case 81
out of 100 manuscripts submitted dur
ing three weeks were novels. THE
same publisher told me that sometimes
the percentage of novels would reach
rs per cent. This tendency for novel
writing is undoubtedly due to the fact
that the greatest hits" in the literary
world are made with novels, and this
stimulates the average writer to work
in this fed.
OF all these novels it Is plain 70 De
seen from the figures given in the pre-
ceding paragraph that scores must be
written before one is accepted. And
even if writer has a novel accepted
the percentage of success is decidedly
against him. During this investigation
process / selected fifteen recently pub
lished novels issued by SIX different
houses and l learned that the entire
number printed of these fifteen was
1000 copies, or 2,70o copies Of each.

The E,ports of Cheese.

Yankee cheese-makers appear TO be
letting Canadian cheese-makers get a
monopoly of the foreign trade. Dur
ing the fiscal year ending July /, 1895,
Canada exported cheese to the value of
S14,253,002. The value of that exported
by the United States was S5,495,539.
The value of the Canadian exports of
cheese increased S1,000,000 year since
1890. Our exports, on the contrary,
show falling off.
