A UNIQUE BOOK.
All the Worlds Literature in Thirty
VOlumes-Whst Its Owners Say.


If all the favorable comments which
ley warmers Library of the World 9
Best Literature We're bound in one
volume 1T would be larger book than
was ever made. Nothing but words of
praise comes from all who possess the
volumes. John J-Dobson, superintend-
ent OF the North W. stern Newspaper
union, with oHicesoin the Pioneer Press
building, st. Pauls writes on July 7, as
follows:
II have Received the first four
volumes of the library Of the worlds
best literature and found the same
very satisfactory indeed. While l have
not had time Ito thoroughly examine
them, yet can readily see that from
the superficial examination given, that
they VIII undoubtedly prove an addi-
ton to my library, which could not
De made in any other manner except
ing at a great expense, and the pur-
chase or 1nnumerable separate works"
In TINS same connection we quote
DR.. j. W. Chamberlin Endicott
building, ST Paul, who, writing about
this library on July 6, says:
Il believe the Library of the World S
Best Literature to be the most valu-
able production of it's kind. and it's
literary worth is more and more ap-
parent with each volume that is
brought out"

BEAUTIFYING THE CITY.
Some Suggestions to Amateurs as to
when TO Plant Trees

To the Editor of the Globe.
II may pc as we'll to remind those wishing
70 Deautliy and improve their property to
take advantage of the suggestions kindly
anu sratultGusly offered by the ladies' i'm
proVement society on last Sunday towards
the Deautlty1ng and Improvement of the city.
when all present highly appreciated and |
now beg to offer few of my suggestions to
mo Wlsnihg to take advantage of the early
iall painting ef all species of deciduous
trees Reason, that the tree is more at rest
alter the summers growth, and the rest
Time IS mat IN which most plants can be
easily removed; whereas, if painted in the
spring the roots lie torpid in the chilled
SOIL after the winters frost and soon die
Eyergreens should be planted in the spring
months of May and June, so as to form new
roots at once to sustain the evaporation Of
the leaves. 1T may also be suggested and
carried out to advantage to prune and trim
all over-grown branches on boulevard trees
which obstruct the street lamp lights in
many places from oyer-crowded branches
ana which we have, had such an experience
with from storms in the last few DAYS up
lifting and destroying many fine and orna-
mental trees. Nothing looks so bad as a
badly trimmed and mutilated tree; let the
work be done at the proper tine and then
judiciously- DONE and it is done forever. II
behoGyes us to look ahead before the final
destruction OF our ancient and noble trees
the pride and beauty of the city.
In conclusion, would strongly suggest that
all vacant lots ought to be somewhat cleaned
of dead wood and noXious weeds enhancing
their value considerably Unfortunately we
property owners cannot see far enough ahead
to appreciate this wise suggestion carried out
near for partially improved lots which l am
sorry to find not here, but barren, wild
wastes overrun with burdocks and other nox-
ious weeds, which, if not finally DESTROYED
will overrun the city at seed time.

FOOD PRODUCTS IN WAR TIMES.

member of the British house of COM
mons discusses a question which would have
immediate anu very serious interest for this
country if the European war that is always
TO be regarded as a possibility should actu-
ally occur, says the Hartford Courant. 1t
mas already been proposed on the continent
that IN case of war food be declared contra
band. The primary effect of this would be
to place Great Britain at tremendous dis
advantage If she were one of the parties
to the contest. That country now imports
food to the value of about $3.50, 900 900 a year.
Of wheat and flour alone it imports %, 900 900
quarters a year and produces only g. 900 000
The stock on hand is never more than three
months supply, and sometimes more than
one, so that, making food contraband, would
be quite likely to result in a bread famine
within very short time
OF the vast quantity of food imported the
United States furnishes about 5000 900, 900
worth. If food shipped to Great Britain
were recognized by the contending powers
as contraband of war our trade would suffer
immensely. Insurance of cargoes might cas-
lily rise to point which would stop ship
ments. OF the further effects it is unneces-
sary to speculate at present, but it is evil
dent that the proposition to declare food
products contraband has vital interest for
US, as very large shippers of such supplies.
Mr.. Seton Kerr, the author of the North
American article, suggests that in no event
would this country join in recognizing the
proposed addition to International law and
in this he is doubtless correct,
For England the proposition is so threat
ening that Seton Kerr has introduced in the
house of commons resolution since adopted
which declares the situation demands ''the
serious attention of her majesty's govern
ment.' Great Britain cannot consent to the
proposed change nor she prevent its
adoption by the continental powers if they
choose to take such action, which indeed
will give them possible advantages great
enough to account for the open support the
plan has received from some of them, notably
France. The gravity Of the situation is fur
Their indicated by a proposition. which is
said to be favorably considered in England,
for creating there a government reserve OF
wheat sufficient to last at least six months
Government authorities are believed to be
giving this project serious attention If il
mand for American wheat. Perhaps that is
all that will come of it, and this is greatly
to be hoped.
