MONTREAL, Dec. 7. -The foreign de-
mand for wheat wasquieter and cables
were, easier, at a decline of lad per quay -4
ter. There centimes to be a fair enquirsr
for Manitoba barley, but owing to the
sharp advance in prices of fully 5cper
bushel in. Winnipeg, on account_ of the
increased demand, exporters could not
workanyfurtber business, Owing to the
fact that stocks of oats on spot are the
largest on record for this season of the
Year, a weaker feeling prevails in the
market, and prices are 33c lower, with
only a small trade doing. Flour is steady,
with -a fair demand. Rolled oats have
declined 400 per barrel. Millfeed is fair-
ly active. Demand for butter is fair.
Receipts for week,,were 6770 packages, as
against 4660 -a year ago.
A much better feeling prevails in the
cheese situation, with a fair volume of
business doing. Receipts for week were
4499 boxes, agatust 3855 a year ago. Eggs
active and firm. Receipts for week, 2230

Bachelor 'nehmen Claim They Were
Driven From Home
Driven away from home because
they positively refused to marry was
the story told by a party of four Irish-,
men upon their arrival at Montreal.
Lloyd O'Brien, Harry Shannon and;
two brothers of the latter fell'under
the ban issued some months ago in
their home town of Dunshaughen in'
county Meath. Owing to the exces-
sive number of bachelors in the neigh-
borhood,the Town Council resolved to
give everyone a chance to marry and
then, if they still remained obdurate,
to get rid of them. It was claimed
that the general prosperity and wel-
fare of the community demanded a
diminution in the abnormal number
of single, 1 len. So seventy-nine glar-
ing cases were especially named and
given notice that they must marry
inside of six months or depart for pas-
tures new.
The. six months passed and thirteen
of -the bachelors were still unmarried.,
Four' of them were staunch 'woman -
Were and held out to the finish.,
The Council carried out its threat
and expelled the unlucky thirteen, four
of whom found their way to Canada.

to go elsewhere for repairs and over-
hauling will tie up in future.at Prince

,THE DORSET HORN SHEEP.
Breed Noted For Fecundity and Great
•Milking Qualities.
The Dorset horn sheep is one of the
oldest'of the 'English breeds. Original-
ly it was large,•long legged' and rather
chaise, and both sexes bad horns the
same,as they have now, writes F. 0.
Sibley in American Cultivator. l f-
forts'wet'e subsequently made to im;
prove' the breed by mingling the blood
of other maces, but without success. It.
therefor°e has practically the same ap-
pearance today as formerly, .only it is
more refined, the form being similar to
that of the Southdown, with added 'size
and;less symmetry. .
As can be seen in the accompanying
illustration,' the horns of the ram are '
very large and curve spirally forward,
while those, of the ewe are much light-
er and cure forward and inward rath-
er in front of the eyes. These ere not
a superfluity" by any means either, for
their possessors ,are generally inclined
to be. pugnacious and stand- for their
own rights, espedaily when strange
dogs come about, even perhaps to tak-
ing the aggressive and driving the in-
truders from the field. This trait is
liable to be strongly manifested when
the ewe has a young lamb. They are
not "dog proof," however,. , for dogs
that are already trained sheep killers
will work great havoc among them,.
only owing to their horns they will put
up a hard fight before succumbing.
.A. flock of them makes a fine appear.
mice anywhere, and when well bred
they will shear about the same as the
Shropshire., the wool commandinges
good a price as that of any of the
English breeds.
But their greatest value lies in the
production of early lambs. The ewes,
