ENGLAND'S DAIRY.

The extent to. which England relies oh Denmark for dairy produce, bacon and eggs, is set forth : in the annuad consular report, just issued. The export of butter, both Danish and foreign, from Denmark to the United Kingdom, amounted in 1907 to 1,818,811 cwt/ in 1906 to 1,675,761 cwt, arid' in 190-5 to 1,630,363 .cwt. The Y"nl.ue : of dairy produce exported,, which lias for the last three- years (1904-06). remained nearly' constant, shows an increase in "1907 of over £13,000,000. Enquiries in the United Kingdom indicate that it is not to Denmark's advantage to supply the British market with anything but first-class goods, for, whereas there has been a regular supply of secondclass butter from Siberia and Russia, reaching during the height of the season to 20,000 casks a week, consigned to London alone, the- supply of the finest quality butter did not meet the demand. In October, the -price of first-quality Danish liiticr reached £6 10s to £6 12s, but as soon as the Australian supply came to hand prices decline*!. On the whole, there seems- to be keen competition for the market so far as .second quality butter is concerned, but the first quality in no way appears to be threatened. In round numbers, about 1,800,000 cwt of Danish bacon wero exported to the British, market in 1907, or about 200,000 cwt in excess of the amount 1 delivered m 1906.

Mr W. Cox, Humffray street, Ballarat, Vie., writes: — "I have been a freat sufferer from rheumatism and aving obtained the greatest relief by the use of Chamberlain's Pain Balm, I cannot speak too highly of it. Whenever I feel the rheumatic pains coming on, I give the affected parts a few applications and it always arrests the attack. I know several people who have used Chamberlain's Pain Balm, and they all speak in the highest praises of it." For sale everywhere. .
