THE WHEAT SUPPLY.

(" AUSTRALASIAN.") This year, instead of sending Home about a million quarters as usual, Aus tralia is drawing supplies from Cali fornia, while it is doubtful whether the Argentine Republic can ship more than last season, when the shipments, though considerable, were less than m 1894. On the other hand, two weak points m the position are the large visible supply m America and the accumula tion of stocks at the Kusßiah ports. At the middle of December the stocks of wheat at the six Russian ports of Odessa, Berdianski, Tagaurojr, Novo rossisk, Sebwtopol, and Theodosia amounted to a total of 16,880,000 bushels, against 10,736,000 bushels at the corresponding date 12 months before. This excess of stocks was after shipments on a liberal scale had been made, the total exports from August,. 1 to Pecember 31, 1895, being 49,232,320 /bushels, against 51,506,080 bushels for the correspond ing period of 1893. When the stooks at the ports are so big it is evident that a further rise m prices m London might again cause the markets to be flooded with Russian -wheat, as hap pened m May and June laßt year. The production of wheat m India continues to show a diminishing tendency. During the past two years the > "exports ~frdm that cotintry hwr been small, and have not had any material influence on the Home market. This' season' a f alling-ofi has taken place m the area sown. In the Punjab, ac cording to the report issued by the Government of India, the area is only 6,628,300 acres, against 8,051 £00 acres last year, or a decrease of 1,423,500 acres. In the Bengal Presidency the area has declined from 2,361,000 acres last year to 1^86,000 aores' this year, the decrease being 495,000. In the north-west provinces there is a decrease of 25 per cent. Other districts are not yet reported -upon, but the total decrease m the Indian wheat area will probably amount to 2,500,000 acres, representing a decrease of twenty-five million bushels m the production.

ENGLISH AGRICULTURE.

A correspondent writes m a London paper : — We bear a great deal nowa days about developing new markets. Can nothing be' done to develop the great home market which lies at our door, and. which is untroubled by hostile tariffs and national prejudices 1 If it be true thtft the broad acres of Britain are being only half cultivated, or m some cases not cultivated at all, whilst their cultivators are being driven off to herd ia slums, is not this a problem which demands the best attention of our statesmen and our thinkers with an exigence that no other possesses? British agriculture has many advantages, and above all it has the taoßt magnificent market at its door. How is it, then,' that our people have to import nearly one half of the food they eat ? It is difficult to get exact figures 6n this point. The best available seem to show that out of tho £300,000,000 worth of food which we eat every year, we go to other countries for £140,000,000 worth. Leaving out a few colonial products, such as tea, sugar, coffee, cocoa, spices, etc., £100,000,000 of this might be produced at home. The figures as to the extent upon which we are dependent upon foreign coun tries for our food are full of warning to us. Our wheat harvest this year is estimated at 5,000,000 quarters. We require nearly 30,000,000 quarters. Thus only one sixth of the bread we eat :4s made from British grain. But beyond the mere question of our bread supply there is the large one of our national existence. What would be our condition were our ports blockaded for three month, I leave to the imagination of the reader. But it is a point which cannot be overlooked m face of tbe figures I have given. As to the extent npon which we are de pendent upon foreign meat, the figures are a little more difficult to get. Major Oraigie estimates that about 27 per cent of the meat we eat comes from abroad, and this per-centage is yearly

growing larger. The enormous trade I m refrigerated mutton is a growth of , the past ten years. It is being de veloped and extended m all directions. Mr Bear gives the figures as to butter and cheese, which show that whilst m 1876 the home supply of both was larger than the foreign m the propor tions of about six to five and a half, and eight and a half to five, now the positions are about five to seven and eight and a quarter to five respectively. This, then, is the problem of agricul tural depression. On the one hand we have landlords and farmers ruined and labourers driven off the soil ; on the other we have $he finest conditions for mixed husbandry, and the best market m the whole world.

The Waihi Gold Mine.

. ,- ♦ . ,- Auckland, March 13 During the four week* ending the 7th mat, 1950 tons of ore were treated at the Waihi Company's mine, yielding £6602 worth of bullion, and from the tailings £664 worth was obtained, giving a total for the four weeks of £7,266 Owing to the excep tionally dry season the water power avail* able was very email, and necessary repairato the boilers interrupted steam power for several days, the result being that not the usual quantity of ore was passed through the mill. The Hauraki North crushed 70 tons of general stuff for 98ozs of gold. . ;

MHK^ lHk^iV^ fin'™""''' ■HF**^Bk EH jrfjnillßfflU- r Pure blood means health, strength, ami happiness. Bad blood means scrofula, pimples, boils, carbuncles, ulcers, tumors, and other dangerous ailments. Ayer's Sarsaparilla cleanses, vitalizes, and enriches the blood, thus imparting renewed life and energy. Jt cures disease by removing the cause from the sj'stein ; it takes away That Tired Feeling, quickens the appetite, and restores HEALTH AMD STRENGTH to those who have become enervated by climatic or other influences. Out of many thousands of testimonials, -\ve have space here only for the following; Mr. E. Dennis, Adelaide, So. Australia, writes:— "lt is, with very much pleasure that 1 testify to the gre;tt benefit I received from using your wonderful blood-purifier. I was a sufferer for years from indigestion, 'loss of strength and appetite, and constipation. My whole system seemed to be thoroughly out of order. A friend finally told me to take Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Hollowed his advice/though feeling discouraged at the fruitless results'- of other treatment, and I am thankful to state that a few bottles completely cured me." Mr. Robert Goodfellow, Mitcham, So. Australia, writes:— "l have used Ayer's Sarsaparilla m niy family for years, and would .not' be. without it. I used to suffer with boils and skin eruptions, attended with great lassitude and general debility. In fact, I was so ill that I could not attend to my business. Mcing advised to try Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I did so, and lam happy to say that the medicine restored me to perfect health; I have since used Aver* Sarsapurilia, for my children, m .various complaints, and it has always proved effective. I can safely recommend it to sufferers as tho best blood-jwriiier m, existence." Highest Awartfg »t the W^rlti's Great Expositions,
