to be added balance OF G123,443,

mended that payment Of bonus of

to credit of profit and loss G151,5i5.
The chairman stated that the scare
ity OF sugar throughout the world
would last for few months, but the
position was very uncertain. In both
Queensland and Fiji the weather con.
ditions affecting the next crop had
been adverse. a sharp drought being
followed by the cyclonic storms. Crops
would be below the average. The 1911
crop was produced at moderate cost
considering the disturbed Industrial
position in May. Proceedings we're TO
be taken against them In New Zealand
on the ground that the present condi'
tions of sale contravened recent Act
by the allowance Of higher discounts
TO wholesale firms doing larger
share of trade to their neighbors who
cannot reach the same standard. II
the Court makes an alteration In en-
listing conditions there will be some
disturbance of trade, but It does not
seem possible that this will damage
the business of the company in any
way.

Epidemic Cerebrospinal Meninaitis.
inc appearance OF cerebroSpinaI men,
nights in serious epidemic form in Tex
as and sp~oradically in numerous places
In other states has intensified interest
in this dangerous disease. In the las.
issue of the public health reports is a
timely paper by DIR. w. II. Frost which
covers the history as we'll as our pres
ent knowledge of this disease. Through
the studies of recent ear four vital
points concerning this disease have
been practically settled, namely. the
Identification OF the c%ausative organ
ism, the diagnosis by examination of
the spinal fuid. its effective treatment
by the antimeningitis serum and the 10
cation OF the infective agent In the
nose and throat of those afflicted as
we'll as on that of many healthy car
riers. Fluegge says that healthy car
riers are 10 times more numerous than
recognized cases of meningitis, and are
more tina 10 times as prolific as a
source Of infection for others. 1t will
thus be seen that Il determination of
all carriers by examination would be u
most difficult matter. while the rigid
quarantine OF either houses or omm,,-
mites on of ce~rebrospinal mem
nights seems ordinarily unjustified.
Bacteriologic examination for the pur-
pose of discovering all carriers would
be impracticable, II If this could be
carried out they would be difficult OF
control. There are, however, some gem
eral measures that will undoubtedly aid
in preventing the spread of this dis
ease, says the Journal of the Amer
lean Medical Association. Among them
are the early diagnosis and Isolation OF
suspected cases and prompt serum
treatment, perhaps In special hospitals
during epidemics. The following. of
proper hggienic regulations by indiyid-
uals no doubt will aid. The infectiye
agent is found only in human beings
and Is believed not to survive long after
separation from the host. ,Jotwith-
standing this fact. however, lis some
what erratic spread during epiac,nics is
still nue. of a mystery.

TO MAKE cAMEMBERT CHEESE
experiments Conducted by Aorioul-
turai Department in Attempt to
Produce Equivalent.

For several years there have been
conducted, under suggestions afforded
BY the department Of agriculture, va
rious experiments in this country,
with view to tho manufacturing OF
an equivalent Of the famous Camem-
bert cheese.
In the production Of this cheese
much depends on two species Of mi
croscopic fungi or molds known to
science as Pendulum camemberti
and Oidium lactis. Both species have
been artifcially propagated and fur.
nished to the experiment stations.
The manufacture of the cheese be.
gins with fresh whole milk heated to
IS degrees Fahrenheit. Later on the
cheeses are inoculated with cultures
of these molds. .
The cheeses are shaped In galvan.
lied iron hoops, and afterward treated
with salt rubbed on the outside. They
are then transferred to the first ripen'
ing room. the air of which must be
quite saturated with moisture, and
maintained, at q temperature Of from
60 to So degrees. From this time on
they are treated daily. During the
second week they are wrapped in tin
foil or parchment paper, after which
they are sent to the second ripenine
room, the temperature Of which ID
slightly lower than that Of the first
room. In the second room the cheesea
remain one or two weeks, when they
reach the best condition for consump
