New Brunswick °esters -
An attempt, said to bo the lirat In
New Brunswick, to cultivate oyeteri
On a 'large scale 'Wee inaugurated
about three year ago by a amain,
group of local Capitalists. who form-
ed a company with headquarters at
Great Shentogee, in this province.
Already they have invested approxi-
mately ;30,000. The company holds
under government lease four areaa
of beds, tbree in New Brunswick --
'at Great Sherrtogue, 200 acres: at
Little Saeu:togue, 50 acres: and at
Port Elgin, 150 aeree-and one of
300 acres at River John, Nova Scotia.
The ant recovery from these area.,
was made recently when 100 barrels
or oysters were raked at Great Shem-
ague. In another year it is antici-
pated that a yield of 1,000 to 2,000
barrels oan-bi) taken without risk of
,dareage to the beds.
The company now employs about
fifty meo in ale departments. It owns
a steamer, whioh is used for bring-
ing seed oysters from Richibucto
and also In dietributing the cuitch
-the shells and kindred materials
upon which the young oyster fastens
and remains until removed, at mature
ity. The craft has a keel length of
more than 60 feet and cost $8,000.
The company also owns and oper-
sates a gasoline launch and a lleet ot
small boats.
The question of establishing an
oyster canneryebas not yet engaged
the serious attention of the company.
Its representatives, however, have
visited canneries in the United States
and have made themselves familiar
with the requirements of such es-
tablishments. One of the directors
intimates that, whereas the large
allies of Canada now offer for oy-
sters in the shell excellent markets,
which are conveniently accessible on
account of the periodical service of
insulated cars provided by the rail-
roads, a source of profit may be
found. in canning for export.
A Friend of Canada.
Not many people have, since the
war began, served Canada more
faithfully than Mrs. Rivers Bulkeley.
It is pleasant to know that the re-
turn of the Duke and Duchess of
Connaught brought her great pleas-
ure. Among the first to greet the
party were Mrs. Bulkley and her
baby boy, Robert. As Miss Pelly,
this lady was a member of the vice-.
regal household and her marriage to
Captain Rivers-Bulkeley, of the Gov-
ernor -General's staff, was a source of
greaapleasure to all members of the
fanate la of the Duke of 'Bonnaught.

TORONTO, July 24. -The run of
tattle and live stock of all kinds on

4,0 0 0 head of cattle, 630 hogs, near-
ly 1,000 sheep and lambs, and 208
calves. The heavy deliveries, coupled
with the extreme heat, had a de-
pressing influence on the market in
the early hours of the day, and it
was well on to noon before buying
was well under way, and when it did
there was a notable decline in prices
for practically all lines ef cattle
frora 35e to 50e per cwt., and in
some cases a clean cut of 711c per
cwt.

WANTS A SMALL VICTORY,
ta'rown Prince Persists In Spite of
lEfeavy LaSSCis.
LONDON, July 24. -Gerard Camp-
bell In a telegraphic communication
trona tbe French headquarters on
Sunday says:
"The main object of the series Ot
furious attacks of the enemy during
the last few days all along the
French front from 'Verdun to Roast
Liaison -left bank of the Meuse,
Moronvilliers, Craonne, C,erny, Pan-
theon, St. Quentin -Is political.
Somehow, somewhere the Crown
Prince had to pull off a striking vic-
tory to flourish in the laces of the
malcontents at home, in the Reich-
stag, and elsewhere. If that. is so he
would have done better to strick to
military matters. The net result of
the actions is that he lost large num-
bers of men, gained nothing by way
of observation posts aad hardly a
yard of ground. The possible ex-
planation of the attacks on the
Chemin-des-Daanes in particular is
that he is desperately anxious to
drive the French from their observe,
time posts in order to be able to
make preparations for a further re-
treat without being constantly over-
looked. Tbe way the Preach armies
foiled his plans in spite of the won-
derful grit with which the men of
his commaad tried to carry out
orders is for sheer courage as fine as
anything they have done in the
whole war."
Farneer Killed His Wife,
WINGHAM, July 2 4.--Jarnes Mc-
Cracken,, a young farmer of the 4th
Concession of Forest, while in a fit
of jealous rage Saturday evening,
shot and killed his wife with a re-
volver at their old home. After re-
turnin.g to the 'home of his parents,
where he hail been living since separ-
ating from his wife six months ago,
and telling his mother of his crime,
McCracken fired a shot into his own
body, but failed, hovrever, to inflict
more than a slight flesh wound. He
was arrested by Constable Phippen.
