Tricks in Buying canto.
A correspondent of the Acton Free
Press says :—A sharp trick was played
by a butcher near Arkell, a short time
ago. The butcher bought some cattle
for a good figure and seeing he had
paid too much for them he hired an-
other man to go and offer the same
farmer a higher figure than he had
paid, after which the butcher :went
and told the man he bought the cattle
from that he could not take them for
about two weeks longer, when the
farmer told shim he was offered more
than he ° sold there for. Then the
butcher said, give ins back the money
I gave you to bind the bargain and
you may sell them' to the man who
offered more. This he did, and he is
now hunting op his other buyer who
is of course not to be found. It semis
to us that there was Isiit in the one and
halt a dozen in the other.
