Mr Kieman eaya :-`- e . Barrie Teaches Hamilton. The Hamilton Spectator complains grievously of the cost of cement walks ~ in that city, and prints a letter from a correspondent in reference to the price Barrie has paid. The writer says :-Last summer I was in Barrie onia visit and noticed some new cement, walk put down in thattown. The walks are smoother, whiter and appar- = ently harder than the walks put down ~ here and less gritty in appearance. `In conversation with Mayor Wells, he ' mentioned the cost per square foot, which was much below the estimated ` cost of same kind of walk, and, as you will see, about half of the. actual cost A, of a good deal of the walk. put down here last year. To make sure of the cost of the Barrie walks, I wrote Dr. Wells, now ex Mayor, for the cost of their walks, and received the enclosed statement from Mr. Donnell, Clerk and Treasurer of Barrie, which certainly shows we are paying exorbitant prices for our `cement walks. Of course, . where curbing is put down the prices must be higher, but even then our `prices look much too high. I will ask you, Mr. Editor, to publish Mr. Don- nell s statement for the information of our citizens The letter from Barrie is as folio ws :---Dear Sir,-At the re quest of ex Mayor Wells I give you- the tollo wing particulars of cost herein: --Ce ment walk on [High street,` length 557 feet 4 inches, 4 feet wide, old plank walk removed, grading, excavating and lling in with gravel to a depth of about 6 inches as foundation or bed for concrete and cement nish.

Worsley-street length 1.046 feet 4 inches, width'4 feet, Collier street, length 2,106 feet, width feet. The latter two had been laid with asphalt. The asphalt was removed and very little grading or filling` was required." `Quantities of Star Brand cement'used on dlferent walks were as follows: High, 55% bar- rels ; Worsley, 85%; Collier, 206}, at $2.60 per.harrel. Total cost $1,383.77. High-street walk, cost per square foot, about 10% cents. Worsley walk. cost per square foot, 8 cents. ' Collier walk',cost per square foot, 7.53 cents. `Song, F. J.

Not for many years has there been such an unprecedented scarcity of but- ter in Canada as there is at the present time, says Farming. yWherever one goes, in the country or in the city, the- cry is the same. pMan_v winter cueameries have had ready sale lor their supplies- in their own localities and have not had to go to the trouble of shipping to the larger centres. 80 great is the scarcity that large quantit- ies of butter are being re-shipped fI'( 111 England to Canada. Prices in_ Mont- real last week reached the_ thirty cent basis forchoice crearnery in large lots and some sales were made in a reiail way at 33 cents to 35 cents. Cream- eries have been able to dispose `of their product at 27 to 29 cents at Montreal and inferior quality has brought within a couple` of cents of these gures. It is not expected that these high prices will prevail very long. The warmer weather is approaching and the season is at hand when the milk supply will begin to increase very quickly. But with all stocks cleared out as they un- doubtedly will . be at present high values, good protable prices are likely to obtain for some time. i _ Twice A5 35.4 As gfwxns The following paragraph from a De- troit pgper `wall of interest :T-T-A- .
