Russia also wants trade expansion. The Russian government has entered into contract with commercial house at Riga, port to the south of St. Pe- tersburg, to establish a direct line of steamers to London. These are to be equipped with special refrigerating plants, and weekly trips will be made from Riga largely with cargoes of but ter. It is planned to collect this butter at the railroad stations on the Siberian railroad, the train starting at Ob. Spe- cial fast freights made up of refrigera tor cars will be run, each car carrying about eight tons of butter. On arriv ing at Riga the butter will be inspected, and if it Is thought necessary, repack- ed before being placed on the steamers. It is hoped that this fast freight and steamer service will build up business in other lines, but the principal article that it will depend on is butter, and the Russians hope to very largely supply the London market.

Sir James Grant, president of the Ca nadian Association for the Prevention of Tuberculosis, approves of the action of the United States authorities in bar ring out persons suffering from tuber- culosis, and says that similar action has been recommended to the Canadian government by the association. It is thought that the rule will prevent many consumptives from leaving Ca nadian homes for milder climates in the southern States, notably for Colorado and California. While the consump- tives from Canada bound for the south ern States are not usually regarded as immigrants, it is said they could be so classed under the order.

Spain is on the verge of disruption

peasants are barely able to keep soul
and body together. But they are a
deeply re igious people and the church

Manufacturers are banded togeth"r
