He opposed any substi- tute for or amendment to the oleomar- garine laws in the interest of imita- tion butter. He. attributed the high cost of farm products to the consumer to bad roads, which increase tho cost of mar- keting crops, excessive freight rate charges based upon watered stock far exceeding the value of the ralroads, j and tho exorbitant prices of the com- mission hou«rs.

FOB THE -{QURNAV DUTCH BULB INDUSTRY. The Dutch bulb growers are organ- ized into a general federation which now numbers nearly 3,000 members and is divided into thirty-seven local groups, A paper is published twice a week, weekly exchanges are held dur- ing the 'tra.de > season, novelties are ex- amined and reported upon by a cini- mittee of judges and a trade council inquires into and decides all trade differences. Since 1750 the cultivation and ex- port of bulbs have been regularly car- ried on in Holland, says the Journal of the Irish Department of Agricul- ture. The trade reached its present enormous proportions during the last decades of the nineteenth conturj. The bulb growing industry was first confined to Haarlem and its vicin- ity, but has gradually extended wher- ever a suitable piece of land was available. In order to grow bulbs meadows have been transformed and sand dunes levelled. The preparation of land for this purpose is often very costly, and the value of the best plots varies from £320 to £500 (?1,- 557 to $2,433) an acre. The export statistics of the indus- try, which have been carefully kept since 1897, show that the total export has very largely increased in the last ten years. The value of this export cannot now be less than'£800,000 ($3,- S93.20). England is still Holland's best customer for bulbs, taking near- ly 40 per cent, of the total export.' The number of bulb exporting, firms in»t Holland is about 200; there aiv also over 2,500 growers who do not isport directly but send their pro- duce through the larger finns. The nuittber of persons employed in the bulb industry is estimated at 4,000. LOCAL NOTICES.
