The figures of Ireland's emigration
for the past year have been published
and show that the total was 4O,401
persons, or 81 per thousand of pop
ulation a majority of whom came to
this country. The birth rate there is
about Is per thousand, against over 80
for England and Scotland, the lower
Irish rate being due apparently to the
large emigration of people of the pro-
ductive ages. The Irish death rate is
about 1875 which, with an emigration
rate of 81, makes up a yearly loss of
27.6 per thousand, or a net yearly loss
over births of about &c per thousand
of population. The depopulation of
the island thus continues, causing not
merely material loss, but loss of
civic ambition and spirit. The emigra-
ton from Ireland since 1851 of 1921 ,222
persons tells Il story of a great national
tragedy.

oleomaraarine's Decline.

There is much consolation for our
farmers and dairymen in the married
declines in the sale and use of oleo-
margarine AS a result of much agita-
t,on the first session of the last Con-
gress passed a law increasing from two
cents per pound to lG cents per pound
the internal revenue tax on oleo-
margarine when it Is colored to initiate
butter When it is sold in its natural
color or in any other color not Intended
as an limitation of butter, the tax is
only one-auarter of q cent per pound.
it wasnot the purpose Of the law to pre-
vent the use of oleomargarine for legiti-
mate purposes or by those who knew
what they were buying, but it's aim was
to protect the public from being inn
posed upon by merchants who would
give their customers bogus butter. and
also to protect farmers and dairymen
from the competition Of such a cheap
and fraudulent product.
f. How we'll this law has succeeded in
its purpose is shown by the fact that
in the nine months since the law went
into effect there was decline OF 20
500, 991 pounds in the production OF
oleomargarine and a decline of s1,5a4,-
482 in the revenue received from that
article, The decline in the demand is
proof enough that it's large and hereto
fore growing sale was the result of it's
fraudulent use as butter. 1t has not
yet altogether disappeared from hotel,
restaurant and boarding house tables.
But it is never put on any OF these
tables for what it really Is. 1t is
always served as real butter and is
colcred for that purpose. The keepers
of these places may be occasionally
deceived, but that is not probable. Its
great decline instead of growth in pros
duction shows that there is no sub
stantal demand for this imitation
butter There are other uses for oleo-
margarine, but they are not extensive.
If any persons want it they can now
buy it cheap as compared with former
prices. when they get it uncolored.
But the 10 cents tax makes oleomar-
garine colored to initiate butter expen-
sive. so that it would be no particular
object in purchasing it. The steady
growth of legislation to check the sale
Of imitation and fraudulent articles of
food is having a good effect, but there
is plenty yet to be done in that drec-
ton.

A Cool Proposition.

I'm a building $40 feet by 210, besides
considerable cold-storage room, will be
all kinds of refrigerating- machines,
large and small. Ice enough to sup
ply the whole fair will be made here;
and refrigeration will be furnished
through pipelines to subscribers in all
parts of the grounds. Besides the ordi-
nary uses of cold Strengthening
water, freezing ice-cream, etc.-thk
enormous refrigerating power of this
plant will probably be utilized to cool
one or more of the large restaurants or
theatres. and will supply an artificial
ice skating-rink, where opportunity
will be offered to watch fancy skating
and to skate for pleasure. There will
be cooled rooms for resting; but in the
rink, at least, no one need suffer from
heat. and wraps will be provided for
protection against cold. The possibili-
ties of refrigeration and artificially
moderated temperature will be shown
as they have never been shown before. y
The above paragraph is an extract
from ST. Louis correspondent who is
telling the world about, the glories and
wonders Of the coming exposition.
Sounds cool and comfortable, doesn't
it? The torrid terrors of the summer
season i'm st. Louis will keep away
many thousands who would otherwise
visit the big show, but the manage
ment plainly intends to combat these
by all the devices that the modern
science of refrigeration is capable of.
1t will be a most interesting contest
between man and nature, and in so far
as the former triumphs it will be a
direct benefit. to humanity elsewhere, for
the successful experiments will prompt
ly be put in operation in other great
cities that suffer from the heat. The
scheme of pipelines to furnish cold air
to subscribers all over a city, just as
gas or water is furnished, is something
worthy of American genius and its
possibilities chill the Inauguration. A
cold air trust can safely be counted on
in the near future and the municipal
ownership of cold aftRillsBeoAscussed

cally carried out. will even make a

Tie other day while wandering

riscotta boy was attracted by the huge
pile Of boxes, barrels, straw, paper,
excelsior, brush, etc. The opportunity
seemed good for bonfire. He applied
the match and the results were large
and Immediate. The opportunity for
bonfire was greater than he had
realized. Twenty feet away and with
u northeast breeze blowing directly
upon it, was the storehouse Of John
Clifford. In this house were large
quantities of kerosene, gasoline,
paints, oils, varnishes, gun powder and
other things that will burn readily if
properly kiH1led. 1t is strange how
LITTLE sympa thy the grown up part of
