The Swedish export Of pork and
pork products is practically thing
OF the past. This is due to the high
tariff on Indian corn. Denmark, which
goes to the extreme OF admitting corn
Tree OF duty, exports very large guam
titles Of pork
one OF the Frenchmen who made a
tour Of Sweden last summer wrote an
account Of his experiences for the
Parls Figaro. He said: Our Swedish
friends ask us whether we are salts
fled. No, we are not satisfied, we
are charmed, raptured, and we repeat
10 all our friends: go to Sweden and
you will see glorious country, where
France and the French are loved"
Butyrator (butter-maker) is the
name of a new separator invented by
Gustaf Salenivs. This machine solves
the difficult problem of producing good
butter without ice or water in a warm
climate. A great sale is predicted fol.
the butyrator in America and central
Europe.
The two Swedish engineers who have
invented a method Of extracting the
mineral oil from coal tar which pos
sesses all the qualities Of the best kero-
sene. have heretofore rejected offers
made by John D. Rockefeller, and to
the American Oil king, he will have to
pay a price in proportion to his own
Immense fortune, or they will begin to
extend their patent in all the coun-
tries of the world. AS soon as the
news of the Invention reached the
United States, John D. Rockefeller
cabled his agents in Paris, to hurry to
Sweden lest somebody might get hold
Of the discovery before the Standard
OIL. 1t is understood that the agents
were empowered to offer as neuch as
100000 to the inventors, but they
have no intention Of selling cut for
any such amount, especially as offers
from all countries are coming in every
day. 1t is said that one offer was re-
ceived indirectly from the kaiser, who
has always been anxious to drive the
Standard Oil company out of Germany.
The next few days will probably de-
eide whether the Standard Oil COM
pany is to remain all powerful or
whether it has at last met it's Waterloo
in Sweden!
After having climbed the hitherto
unconquered peak Of Kilimandjaro,
Professor Yngve Sjoestedt and the
members Of his scientific expedition

ton containing more than forty thou
sand insects and spiders, among which
are many unknown species, and also
the skin of several deer and birds not
yet named by the zoo}ogist. The expe-
ditton used about four months to climb
the mountain, and each zone was
carefully explored before passing to
the next The splendid collections will
be made part Of the Swedish museum
Of natural history in Stockholm.
