SIB, The whole agricultural interest of the country is at the present time most anxious to know what will bo the effect of Fair Trade on the price of wheat, and it seems to be very generally assumed that upless it will substantially increase it the farmers will nus aupport the new policy.
For reasons which I will presently give I do not think that the new policy will materially increase the price of wheat, but I am sure that the farmers and labourers will none the loss be almost incredibly foolish if they fail to support it, and for this reason. The party which now in time of pesce proudly calle itself the Free Food Party, and which in time of war will ase- suredly have pas reason for pride when it is known as the No Food Party, will never do anything to help the farmers. The
direction, and when the new
taxes

plied by A the price of wheat will be 30%. per quarter, but if A cannot supply the whole ares it is clear that B cannot be cultivated until the price rises to 35s, per quarter, for at a less prico the work would be unremunerative. If A and B are in- sufficient the price must rise to 40s. before O will be cultivated and to 459, before D is cultivated. Let us now suppose that A, B, C, and D are all in oultivation and the price of wheat is 458. per quarter. It suddenly occurs to someone to plough up a grass field' or a grasa farm or a new country which we' will call E, and will assume to be equal in wheat-producing capability to B, C, and D.

The following table is a chronologically arranged list of mail steamer Bailings to Europe, America, Canada, and Australia. Coast ports, Manile, and All Japan are not given, for steamers are constantly sailing for those ports. the American steamors call at Japan, and the majority of the Australian boats call at Manila, and, in addition to those vessels, special steamers run there. The departure of every steamer is subject to alteration. The P. & O. maile advance, loss the bounty plus or minus the JEWELLERY DEALER AND GOLD usually reach London in about 28 days, and the French and German in about
during the twelve months. (2) The farmer night sell the wheat himnolf, repaying the
difference in the market price of corn. In this case the nation would pay for any loes or receive any gain.
The bounty can actual experiment, and in the first place at any rate, and probably always, by tender. The whole cost of the transaction can be paid from a small part of the taxes now at last to be levied on America and foreign countries. It will at least be cheaper than having (1) bread riots and starvation at home; (2) the countr conquered, as I be- lieve that it will be if we persist in the policy of the empty cupboard; and (3) the country after conquest taxed as it has not been taxed for hundreds of years for the benefit of some foreign State.

INTERPORT CRICKET.
The Final Matoh,
Sensational Bowling. The final cricket match between the In. terport Elevens commenced to-day, when the Hongkong team were pitted against the eleven from the south. The westhor was
delightfully clear and cool when the match started; the wicket was a new one, pitched slightly to the south of the one used by Shanghai and the Straits; and the general conditions were everywhere favourable to the game. The attendance, as usual, wan poor when the batsmen went out, but Hongkong residents are proverbially late risers and cannot be expected to put in an appearance much before tiffin. Later on, however, the stands and scata around the ground began to fill and a fairly numerous crowd was present. W. Daniel took T. S. Smith's place in the Hongkong team; but the Straits' Eleven was un- altered,

Perkins then faced Dixon and saved the hat trick; a leg bys was scored. The tiffin adjournment than took place and the Hongkong team were loudly cheared as they came in, Dixon being singled out for *pecial applatise.
The Afternoon's Flay, The attendance after tifin was fairly good and increased as the afternoon wore on, until it fully equalled that of the fint match. All the pavilions were fairly well patronised, while round the ground there were few
