EFFICACY OF DRAINAGE ENGINEERING.
The American Exporter recently pablished n highly instructive article on the efficacy of drainage engineering as a menos of exter. midating mosquitoes. The subject is one of vital interest to Hongkong, and the following passages from the article can hardly fail there Tore to be appreciated.
After discussing such expedients as the use of crude oil and the cleaning up of debris, the
marshes and ponts of stagnant water in this field'were the cause of the pest, and that to drain these adequately and permadeptly would abato the nuisance, and increase the value of the land: His problemi was to devise and pui into effect an economical ditching method that would improve upon the shortcomings of the old hand digging and thus come to ba utilized by the farmers and local authorities.
The solution of the problem was found in a form of ditch that could be dug quickly and easily, and in the invention and perfecting of sim- ple but effective tools for ditching the work. It was found by experiment that even a very narrow ditch, if dug with clean-cut vertical sides, would not fill up with debris and get clogged. A 10-inch ditch on this plan will allow all wafer tu seep to it from the surrounding land, and will keep clear for years. The depth is made sufficient to bring the bottom of the ditch well below the grass rocis, and is so narrow for its depth that sunlight is excluded. For that reason the ditch cannot fill up with a new growth of grasi,
The practical means having been found, the City of New York appropriated the sum of $45,000, which, with other amounts that were been expended in fidding a large part of Greater raised by private owners of marsh land, has

COMMENT ON THE ABOVE. Figuras can sometimes be very misleading. In the first place the Kobe figures which show an ipcrease in shipping entries by almost 643 por cent, while flattering tothe port, are unfortunate- ly not correct. In 1907 the tonnage of vessels en tering, Kobe and Osaka amounted to 7,452,503, and as the total toppage entering Onska two years later only amounted to 71,563, it lu pro- bable that the figure for Kobe alone should be about 2,400,000 tons in 1897 jostend of 740,851, as given by the New York Chamber of Com.

A feature of the London County Council elections is the appearance of five women as Progressiva, daughter of the Chief Rabbi, the candidates Among these are Miss N. Adler, Very Rev. Hermann Adier, D.D., who has been alected for Central Hackneys and Miss Susan Lawrence, Moderate, elected for Was Marylebone,
In shipping tonnagu being some 642.8 per cent. It is only 129.1 per cent. Again, it must be remembered that in the CAJA of Koba another matter must be taken into con. sideration. Vetsels making a terminus of Yokohama re entered at Koba both on the outward and homeward voyage, whereas in Yokohama the same vassols, though bringing cargo in one case and taking it away in the other, are counted only once. This increases the total of Kobs's tonnage without much extra trade being actually done.
We point this out in order to show that, the figures given are of little value unless analysed and taken in relation with other facts. For example, New York is America's principal port in a much more decided way than London is England's principal port. We have no very recent figures, but for the fiscal year ended June 30th, 19:0, of the entire 233 million dol- lars of duties collected at all the posts of the United States no less than 152, millioną, wag' recolved at the port of New York. Of 34,014 vessels, with a touange of 28,153,0ng, which entered all United. States ports in the same year, 10,169,040. tons entered the ports of the Iste of New York. It is quite différent in the case of England. In 1904 the aggra gate tonnage ontering British ports (exclusive of the coasting trado) was 98,524,000) of which entrances to the port of Landon accounted for only 17,619000, Liverpool coming second with 14,500,000 tons.
