Quantity or water used Tor each OF
the twelve months Of the year 1900.

1t took 1881 hours for the pumps
to raise this amount Of water at the
expense for fuel OF 26,3l0 feet OF
wood (206 cords at from $1.75 TO $3.0
a cord, an average OF about 1925 a
cord.
In the month Of June, 1900, the
people used 1,743,748 gallons more
than they did during the same month
in 1899 This will give some idea of
the amount of water used on the
lawns in adry spell. Water was pre-.
sumably used to quite an extent on
the lawns in June, 1899, so that this
nearly tw' million gallons used In ex,
cess in June, 1900, does not constitute
the whole amount used on the lawns
In the latter month. The table shows
the least amount used In April. The
average amount used In houses In the
months when the lawns we're not
watered was about 100000 gallons
During the four months while The
lawns we're being sprinkled there wal
used as much water as all the rest o.
the year and an average amount o.
nearly 10000 gallons-which would
seem TO mean that the lawns usec
nearly 1000, 900 gallons month.

Peace

The dawn of the goth century
finds the great nations of the world
"armed to the teeth" but at peace
and with gracious good will toward
each other. There are no great
wars in progress or in prospect.
The disturbances existing in the
Philippines and in South Africa do
not rise to the dignity Of wars in
the common acceptation Of the term
in modern usage. 1t is true that we
have pretty good sized army in
the Philippines, but the absence OF
pitched battles indicates that it is a
one-sided affair. The army is dis
tributed among 500 garrisons
throughout the different islands and
operates as police force, prevent
ing and suppressing violence and re-
storing order to society where it has
long been disturbed by an aggravated
instruction bequeathed to us by the
retiring Spaniards. In South Afri-
ca the Transvaal has been ovcrrun,
the Boer armies as organizations
either captured or broken up and the
remnants pursued with ceaseless Wig
or. Conditions in China are being
readjusted it is hoped on basis that
will insure permanent peace while
guaranteeing the integrity of the
empire. In South and Central
America the customary sporadic in
surrections occur periodically, and
are accepted as a normal condition
and endured as a necessary evil, but
on the whole, the prospect for peace
among the brotherhood of nations is
good.
"The echoing sounds grow fainter, and then
cease;
And like bell. with solemn, sweet vibra-
tions,
I hear once more the voice of Christ say,
'Peace'
Peacel aud no longer from her brazen
portals
The blast of Wars great organ shakes the
skies,
But beautiful as songs of the Immortals
The holy melodies Of Love arise.

Opposed to the Ctrout Bill.

terably opposed to the Grout bill
which imposes a tax of 10 cents a
pound on oleomargar inc when col
ored in imitation oic butter. The
stock cattle men are free to acknowl-
edge that this bill, if it shall become
law, will ruin the oleomargarine
trade. This acknow Judgement on
their part is a virtual confession
that the industry til rives upon fraud.
They know that pc ople will not buy
this conglomerate product Of the
shambles and pay a butter price for
it when it is offe red for sale on its
merits. The sto ck cattle men say
that their intere' 1t is paramount to
that of the dai rymen inasmuch as

The expenses of the national gov
eminent have expanded little with
age. In 1900 the expenditures for
the administration of the govern
ment amounted to $74II,37o, and
in 1900 to $I,297555,524. The ex-
pense per capita in the former year
was $I.4o, and in the latter, $I7.oo.
While the expenses of the govern
