LIVE STOCK MARKETS ' Montreal, June 25. -The record prices pre- vailing at the local cattle markets induced farmers to ship large quantities of cattle to the market; and tile morning the offerings at both east and west end markets were ex- ceedingly heavy. At the West End Cattle Market offeringe were; 1,100 cattle, 700 sheer), and lambs, 500 hogs, and 1,550 calves, while at the Canadian Pacific Stock Yards there -were 950 cattle. 400 sheep and lanais, 500 hogs, and 550 calires. The glutting of- the market with live stock "led to a stagnation of trade, and prices were very much weaker, declines of two dollars per 100 pounds not being in- frequent. Trading was slow, and the market was pretty dead, traders being cautious and going very slow in the hope of getting rain lower prices. Hogs were a better feature although the decline in that section, which has continued for several' eeke, was marked, and choicest selectee were sold` at' $19 per 100 pounds, while some rough stock were as lone as 318 per 100 rpounds, • Buffalo, June 25. -Cattle -Receipts, 5,000; easier, erime steers, $17.50, to 317.75; shipping 317 to 417.25; butchers' 312 to 316.50; year- lings, 313.50 to 316.75; heifers, 310 to $14.25; <lows, 36 to $12e50: bulls, $7.50 to312.50; steams -and feed.0 ers, 37.50 to 310; fresh cows and springers.

Toronto June 25. -The run of cattde here to -day was about the aver- age of the last few weeks as regards numbers and business started quite briskly, with prices firm with last week' -end for the good quality. animals. Toward noon, however, the stock including a big nunaberof second rate cows, came up for sale, and things slowed me to such an extent that 25 cents less per cwt. had to be aocepted for this class of animals. The few bade of stall-feds offered brought from 315.50 to $16.25, 'the latter price being for choice marinas. The number of calves present was only half that of last Monday. and the comparative scarcity combined wit& fair quality in the lot offered kept the price up to from $16.00 to 317.25 at the top though the poorer ones eold as low as $12.00. Spring lambs and all sheep were fewer than at this time last week. but the price was, if anything, a little 'lower all round. Spring lembs brought from 20 to 211ac and yearlings 1514 to 17c.

Leave of Absence on Ground of Extreme Hardship. Procedure to obtain Leave cf Absence. Men Nineteen and Twenty Years of 'Age. It has come to the attention of the Government that there is a widespread impression that young men of nineteen' years, and those who became twenty since October`13, 1917, as well iis those who may become nineteen from time to time and who have been or will be called upon to register under the Military Service Act, are to be iznmediately called to the colours. This impression is 'quite incorrect. No date has yet been fixed for calling upon such men to so report for duty, nor has the questidn been brought before the Cabinet for decision. In view of the need of labour on the farm, it is most • unlikely that consideration will be given to the matter until after the harvest= is over, although of course the Governnient's action must be cleterniined plinaarily • by the military situation. There is no further obligation incumnent upon young men of the ages, above mentfoned who have registered or who do so hereafter, until they receive notice from the Registrars.. Harvest Leave. Sonae enquiries have been received as to the possibility of granting harvest leave to such troops as May be in the country at that time. No definite assur- ance can be given on this point as advantage must be taken Of ships as they become zvailable. On the other hand, harvest leave will be given if at all possible. Leave of Absence on Grounds of Extreme Hardship. It is desired that the Regulations respecting leave of absence in eases of hard - Alp should be widely known and fully understood. Such leave will be granted. rn two cases:- (a) where extreme hardship arises by reason of the fact that the man concerned is either the only SOLI capable of earning a livelihood, of a father killed or disabled on service or presently in service overseas, or in training for such service, or Under treatment after returning from overseas; or•the only remaining of two or more brothers capable of earning a livelihood (the other brother or brothers having been killed or disabled on service, or being presently in'-gervice overseas, or in training for overseas Or under treatment after his or their returri from overseas); brothels married before 4th August, 1914, living in separate establishments and having a child or children not to be, counted, in determining the fact that the man is the "only" remaining son or brother; (b) where extreme hardship arises by reason of exceptional circumstances such as the fact that the man concerned is the sole support of a widowed mother, an invalid father or other helpless dependents. , It is to be notedthat in all these cases the governing factor is not hardship, loss or suffering to the individual conerned,'but to others, that is, members of his family or those depending upon him. Pipcedure to obtain leave of Absence. A simple systemfor dealing with these eases has been adopted. Forrni of application have been supplied to every Depot Battalion and an officer of each battalion has been detailed whose duty it is to give them immediate attention. -The man concerned should on reporting to his unit state that he desires to apply for leave of absence on one or more of the grounds mentioned and his application form will then be filled out and forwarded to Militia Headquarters, Ottawa'. In the meantime, if the case appears meritorious, the man will be given provisional leave of absence for thirty days so that he may return home aid continue his civil occupation while his case is being finally disposed of.
