Last week the Government formed itself “into a- Committee of the whole to1 considerestimates: The Prime Minister, the Rt. Hon.

While the- Estimates partment of Agriculture were under way a point came , up in connection with the testing of cattle for tuber­ culosis and areas. The the owners ease to the their value, of cdurse, greater for thoroughbred stock. than for, grade animals. 1 would like, your comments as to the desirability of having the County.of Bruce included in1 these restricted areas, ■'_■,•■■.■ ’ ■ ’* , The general routine of the. House has been very quiet, due mainly to the number of needless , resolutions and motions introduced by members of the very small groups. However, the Government has some very im­ portant legislation to .bring down in the near future, which'we will awa.it with interest. ? \ ‘ One of the highlights of this week was the heated argument between r MBS; WM.
