Siberian Butter.

siberia has long been sending butter IA
England, but the opening of tho Trans
Siberian railroad has made IL n far moro
formidable competitor than II formerly
was. Last year the imports OF sberian n
butter valued at Gl,i00.0O0. and this year
IL is estimated that they will reach the
value OF c2.50o 600. The supply OF butter
which Siberia can furnish - said to be
practically unlimited, and Il is possi-
ble that the opening of Siberia may af-
feet the dairy industry OF these countries
as disastrously as the opening up OF
