by Mr. Casey relative" to A. L. Bow-
man, late Collector of Customs at
Berlin, said that he had been a de-
faulter When he left the office, and
that judgment had been obtained
against him for $6,708. His sureties
had amounted to $2,000, which bad
been recovered, and .legal proceedings
bad been taken against l3awman.
RIFLE RANGES.
Sir Adolphe Caron, replying to Mr.
McShane, said that it was the inten-
tion of the Department of Militia to
keep the Government rifle ranges in
repair. Au amount had been placed
in the supplementary estimates for
the purpose, no money being at pre-
sent available.
POSTAGE REDUCTION.
Sir Adolphe Caron • said, in answer
to an enquiry by Mr. McShane, that
it was not the intention of the Gov-
ermaent to reduce the postage charge
for drop letters to one cent,
SUDBURY 'S POSTMASTER.
Sir Adolphe Caron, answering a
question by Mr. Fraser, said.Ste-
phen
hat St -
phen k ournier, postmaster at Sud
bury, bad resigned his position on
May 21st, 1894. The Government was
not aware that he had been a Con-
servative candidate in the late On-
tario eleet.ions, and had not permitted
him to resign in order that he might
run, When he resigned another had
been appointed in his stead, and Mr.
Fournier had been reappointed on the
death of his suoeessor, at $100 per an-
num salary.
BOUNTIES TO FISHERMEN.
Mr. Costigan said, in response to
Mr. Fraser, that the bounties for the
past year had been paid the fisher-
men in all the counties in Nava Sco-
tia.
KOOTENAY DUTIES.
Mr. Wood, in reply to Mr. Mara,
said that. the Customs duties collected
in the Kootenay district from August
lst, 1895, to December 31st, 1805, had
amounted to $84,744. Previous to Au-
gust 1st, 1895, the duties tor that dis-
trict had, been included in the returns
from the office at New Westminster.
MACHINERY IMPORTED FREE.
Mr. Wood gave, in reply to Mr.
Mara, the following figures of the
value of minlug and smelting ma-
chinery admitted free of duty in each
province since the last return laid
before the /muse: --Ontario, $108,484;

SHIPPING INTERESTS.
2,1r. McShane moved fur a return
giving information regarding the com-
plaints made by the ocean shipping
interests of Montreal of the adverse
effect of the tariff upon the import
traffic from the United Kingdom to
Canada; and regarding complaints of
excessive Governmental dues and
charges levied on ocean steamships
and British traffic via the St. Law-
rence route. He declared that Mont-
real had been neglected and no atten-
tion had been paid to the interests of
her crommerce. Her merchants had
been followed and worried just as if
they were thieves by Customs officers
on behalf of the Government. He con-
demned the arbitrary system of Cus-
toms rulings followed by the depart-
ment at Montreal.
NORTH-WEST REPRESENTATION..
Mr. Martin moved the second reading
of a, bill to amend the North(West
Territories Representation Act, which,
in effect, restores to the Territories a
system of voting virtually amounting
to manhood suffrage, which was ter-
minated by an amendment made by
the Senate in 1895.
The motion was agreed to.
STATUTE LABOUR TAX.
Mr. Haggart introduced a bill fur-
ther to amend the Government Rail-
ways' Act. He explained that its ob-
leet was to relieve the employees on the
ntercoloniai railway from the opera-
tion of the provincial statute labor
law.
VOTERS' LISTS REVISION,
Mr. Daly, in the absence of Mr.
Dickey, introduced a. bill respecting the
voter' lists of 1896. The object of the
measure, he explained was to do away
with the revision of the lists this year.
TRADE COMBINATIONS.
Mr. Sproule moved the second read-
ing of a bill to amend the law relating
to conspiracies and combinations form-
ed in restraint of trade. The object is
to strike out the word "unduly" from
the Act.
The bill was read a second time.

THE HIGH COMMISSIONER.
Sir Charles Tupper, in answer to
Mr. Casey, said that while acting as
High Commissioner without salary,
between the periods of May 30th, 1883,
and May 28th, 1894, and between
March 7th, 1887, and July 6th, 1887, he
had received during they former per-
iod $836 for expenses of removal to
London, which was voted by Parlia-
ment, and $3,133.06 for fuel and other
expenses. During the latter period
he had received nothing. No simi-
lar allowances were to be made to him
during the present term of the Acting
High Comissionership without salary.
The order appointing him High Com-
missioner had been cancelled. There
had been no change in the instructions
under the arrangement at present ex-
isting.
GOVERNMENT CARS.
Mr. Haggart, replying to a question
by Mr. Charlton, said that four cars
fitted up for the use of Cabinet Min.'
isters, their guests, and officers of
the Government were in possession
of the Government. They were the
Cumberland, the Ottawa, general man-
ager's car, No. 34, and paymaster's car.
No. 35. The expenditures in connection
with these cars for outfits and expenses
,during the fiscal year 189.5 had been as
follows :-Cumberland, $858.81. ; Ot-
tawa, $$663.31; Car 34, $915.91; and Car
35, $452. The amount of repairs on
these cars during the same year had
been $1,413.08. Nothing had been paid
or was yet to be paid to Canadian or
American !railway corporations for

CANADIAN BUTTER,
Mr. Wood, replying to Mee -Bain,
said that the quantity and value of
butter the product of Canada ex-
ported to Great Britain for the six
months ended December net, 1894, had
been 2,489,211 pounds, value $491,808 ;
for a similar period in 1895, 4,254,704
pounds, value, $772,479. The quantity
and value of the imports of butter for
consumption in the Dominion for the.
said two periods had been, in 1894,
49,991 pounds, value $10,028; and in
1895, 41,809 pounds, value $7,764.
THE CATTLE EMBARGO.
Mr. Foster moved, " That it appears
that for many years previous to No-
vember, 1£92, Canadian eattle were al-
lowed free entrance into the ports of
the United Kingdom without being re-
quired to be slaughtered on landing;
that on the 21st November. 1892, regu-
lations were put in force by the Brit-
ish authorities making the slaughter
of Canadian cattle obligatory upon
being landed, on the assumption that
the disease of pleuro -pneumonia. was
detected in certain animals imported
from Canada; that a bill is now be-
fore the imperial Parliament which
proposes tomake the exolusion of all
foreign cattle permanent ; that the
most thorou eh investigation carried
on in Canada has failed to discloso
the existence of a. single case of
pleuro -pneumonia; that in view of the
foregoing facts, this Parliament, whilst
not wishing to interfere in any way
with legislation considered necessary in
the United Kingdom, desires respect-
fully to protest against the permanent
exclusion of Canadian cattle on the
ground of
the existence, of pleura _pneu-
monia in Canada, and to express in the
strongest passible manner its belief
that pleuro -pneumonia has not existed
In the past and doeee not at the pres-
ent time exist in Canada,"
The motion carried.
THE KHALIFA'S FORCES,
The Sighting Strength et' the IUery}.hes.
A recent American visitor to the Sou-
dan writes in regard to the fighting
strength of the Mandists:--When we
were at Asssouan, in Egypt., in the spring
of '94, the Governor called on tis, and
from him we learned a great deal of
the situation of affairs, He was an
Egyptian who had enjoyed a European
education, and who spoke English flu-
ently. On asking him about these JJer-
viihes, he replied, "1f they had the'sin-
ews of war' at hand, there is nothing
that could stand between them and
(Ara." Ile said they kept about 50,-
000 men under arias. and they had
over 100,000 Martini -Henry rifles. We
thought at the time that this might be
somewhat of an exaggeration. At As-
souan, however, we left our steamer,
and going above the first cataract, en-
gaged another, which took us to Wady
Haifa,
This was and is the frontier station
in the south o. eupit'd by the British and
is one thousand miles Alexan-
dria.
south
u
Here we became acquainted with
the English officers commanding the.
Egyptian forces, and found them an
exceedingly intelligent and agreeable
set of men. We found the frontier
station bearing witness to an intelligent
hygienic supervision. T e difference
between WadyHaifa and manyof the
Nubian villags we had passed was
world-wide. The officers here gave us
every opportunity to see their
MILITARY EQUIPMENT.
We saw the drill of the troops, both
Fellaheen and Nubian. We also saw
that upon which they place their great
reliance in holding back the Dervish in-
roads, their camel corps. This consisted
of 2,000 camels, serving as the cavalry
of the desert. The animals were in fine
shape, well drilled, and carrying mount-
ed artillery as well as the men. We
saw their evolutions out on the desert,
and admired them much. Upon these
the English officers told ustheyre-
lied
r
lied as being the most effective in
warfare such as that part of the coun-
try is called upon to witness.
In conversation with the second of-
ficer in command, I asked him if their
Fellaheen troops could be matched
against the Dervishes' onslaught. He
of the head and a smile, he said, "Hard-
ly." I then asked him whether they
had any troops whom they could match
against the Dervishes' onstaught. He
replied, "We think the Nubians could
match them," and then with a signifi-
cant smile he added, "But we do not
covet the experiment." These Nubian
troops are far ahead. of the Fellaheen
in physique. Black as coal, tall,
straight, with well -formed limbs and
finely set heads, they look as if they
could fight splendidly, especially if led
by competent officers. It seemed to
us at the time that. if the Dervishes
were ever to be severely whipped, these
Nubians led by' English officers were
the only men on whom England could
rely.
I might add here thatt we found in
Egypt, in every class of society, the
prevailing impression that the Eng-
lish had come to stay,and the over-
whelmingdesire that tis should be the
fact. The only class who grumbled at
all were the old bureaucracy. They
have been "thrown out of a job," as
man would say, Tammany and feel
that they have been foully wronged.
The laboring class uniformly, however,
rejoice in the justice of English ad-
ministration and the consequent pros-
perity of the land.
HE DIDN'T MIND WHICH.
How much fur a photograf? he quer-
ied as he entered the room at the head
of the stairs.
My dear sir, you have made a mis-
take, replied the occupant of the office.
This is a dental office, while the pho-
tographer is next door.
Oh, you pull teeth?
Yes, sir,
How much?
Fifty cents apiece.
Well, go ahead and yank out one or
two. It's about the same to me.
COMFORTING' ADVICE,
First Friend—Hello, Jinks! got a bad
cold, I see. ('Bathe your feet in hot
water, and drink a pint of hot lemon-
ade.
Second Friend—Inhale ammonia, or
or menthol.
Third Friend—Take four hours' act-
ive exercise in the open air.
Fourth Friend—Sponge with salt wat-
er, and remain in a warm room.
Fifth Friend—Put on all the winter
things You've got, and spend half a
day sawing wood.
Sixth Friend --The best cure I know
is to get drunk.
Jinks (with emotion) -A friend in
need is a friend indeed. Let's take a
drink.
An elm tree at Sullivan, recently cut
down, yielded four sawlogs 10 feet
long, containing 3,138 feet of lumber,and
10 cords of wood besides.
THE FARM.
GRAFTING FRUIT TREES.
An experienced orchardist says:
Frust grafting should be done early in
the spring, before the leaves begin to
start on the treas. If one is merely
doing his own grafting, the cions may
be selected as one whishes to ' graft
them into the trees, if be has the kind
he wishes to use; but if he wishes to
make a business of it, the elms may be
selected in February. Last year's grow-
th should be chosen and put up in
bunches by themselves, and marked so
no mistakes will be made.
The grafting knife most commonly
used, is one with a straight back and
blade; but the best, and one used by
an old grafter, has arounding back
and a curve in the center of the blade.
The reason that the curved knife is
considered the hest, is because it cuts
the bark ahead of the wood.
There are many receipts for making
grafting -wax, but all that I have seen
use tallow. Boiled linseed oil gives bet-
ter satisfaction to those who have tried
it. Wax made of tallow will melt and
run down on a hot day, but will not
if made of oil, for it dries so much
quicker.
Some, who do grafting to snake mon-
ey, will put as Tetany grafts as possible
an a. tree. This should not be done; for
when they to hey
will
be
so thick that many of he
new ones
will have to be cut off. A small limb
will need but one graft, but two will
be better on a. large one.
When about to set a graft the limb
should be sawed off and split ono and
a half or two inches. The stub i5 now
ready to receive the cion. These
should have two buds. '1'h+ cut, which
forms the lower end of the anion, should
begin alittle below the lower bud, and
cut in the form of a wedge. The wood
should be cut so that the edge opposite
the bud shall be thinner than the part
under it. Wax should be put on be-
tween the cions, and cover the slits at
each side, Be careful not to let the
wax come over the buds. If these direc-
tions are fully carried out you will be
sure to be successful.
HOW TO MAKE A I•iOTllk:1).
A good deal depends upon the hot-
bed as to whether gleed strong early
plants of the tomato, cabbage, etc., are
to be had or not. It should be located
in some sheltered spot with unobstruct-
ed southerly exposure. If sone building
or light board fence be situated so as
to ward off the cold north winds from
the aid it. will be favorable. Any old
sash will answer, so it will not be re-
quired to buy the regulat hotbed sash
for the purpose, if it be desired to save
expense.

being five or six inches higher than the
front, so as ftp give the sash a slant
towards the south. The earth is thrown
out to the depth of two feet in the
bed, and replaced with firmly packed
h
rse manure. el, eighteen inches thick.lek
manure issix bathes
Over the n inure placed u s
of fresh soil. Sods and soil from an
old pasture, fine leaf mold, and a little
rotten cow manure, all thoroughly mix-
ed, make an excellent soil for hotbed
plants. At first there will be consid-
erable heat and evolution of gases. Aft-
er the temperature has fallen to about
91) degress and the foul gases have been
allowed to escape, the seeds may be
sown.
FEEDING CALVES.
A calf may be fed skimmed milk
when one week old, with the addition
of one gill of boiled flaxseed, increas-
ing
ncress-
ing
the ration to a pint a day when
four weeks old, and then adding fine
middlings or corn and oats ground to-
gether, or a. pint to one quart of oats
unground.
Flaxseed gruel, with plenty of skim-
med. milk, will produce a very fine
growth, leaving the calf as mellow to
the touch as if sucking. (he caw. A calf
two months old will gain three pounds
per day on this ration.
The oil taken off in the cream can be
replaced for one-fifth of the money val-
ue of the cream. Butter dairymen may
raise a calf to each cow upon skimmed
milk and a little. additional food, such
as indicated, and get one-fourth to
ane=third as much profit out of the re-
fuse milk as out of the butter. Selling
butter robs the land of nothing valu-
able—only carbon which has no manur-
ial value.
GROW MORE ROOTS,
Although the seed of mange's, ruta-
bagas, turnips, carrots, etc., are so
cheap, very few farmers are acquaint-
ed with the real value of root crops.
It is simply amazing what an amount
of food for stock they will produce on a
small area. A ton of hay equals in
▪ utri value about three tLive "tons of
mange's, but land that would produce
two tons of hay, will raise anywhere
from 15 to '10 tons of these roots. They
feed largely on the air, do not exhaust
the soil, and are easily harvested and
fed. The main thing is to keep them
from freezing, and to chop them up be-
fore feeding. One farmer remarked to
me recently that he could almost fill
his wagon bed on a space no larger
than the wagon, and we have grown
them here that weighed 35 to 40 .lbs.
each. The seed can be readily obtain-
ed from any seedmen, and Mammoth
Long Red is generally preferred. —3.
T. Huntington.
DON'T SACRIFICE THE SHEEP.
Farmers are making a mistake in dis-
posing of all their mutton breeds of
sheep. There is no meat produeing
animal that will pay better for the feed
and time expended, if kept in small
flocks. Mutton is always in good de-
mand, and it is stated by physicians
to be the most wholesome meat ue the
whole list. Sheep will eat more variet-
ies of weeds and grasses than any oth-
er animal, therefore tthey are a bene-
factor to most farmers. Preserve and
maintain the small flocks of mutton
sheep. It does me good to see a nice
flock of sheep well cared for, because
I know that in figuring up at the end
of the year, the profit of the sheep will
be on the right side. -D. J. Briggs.
DAIRYING AND SWINE.
There is great profit in a wise com-
bination of the swine and cows. There
is much waste of milk which cannot be
used on the farm in any other way. The
milk adds variety to the food of the hogs
and tends to afford a balanced ration.
No food is more palatable to the pigs
than milk. A vigorous digestion is
promoted and a disposition. to take on
flesh is extended.
roe shoats the sour milk is especial-
ly appropriate, In the estimation of
some practical feeders whose conelus-
ions are to be respected, the acid in the
sour milk for the older pigs—those more
than four months old—is particularly
valuable and equivalent to using gook -
ed food in many instances.
CURE FOR LICE.
A sure cure for lice on cattle or colts
is insect powder. Place on a brush and
rub in. A steer placed over a canvas
and treated as above, was relieved of
over a pint of Ike. Enough of the
powder was applied. to kill the young
as fast as they hatched,. and in ten
days the animal was entirely free of
the pest, Another correspondent writes
that with a paint brush he applies crude
petroleum along.the back of the animal.
It, will not inure the hair, and the
animals can be turned out during any
weather. Feint t he henhouse once a
year and the fowls will not be troubl-
ed with lice."
THE FEROCIOUS GORILLA.
t Gentleman's Thrilling Encounter and
elitttettloua lit.eape on the East Coast of
,Luisa.
A gentleman who bas lately return-
ed from a. tour of South and East Af-
rica tells of a, thrilling encounter he
had with a gorilla wbile in that far-
off country. Said he:
"The, evening train had arrived at Lo-
rene° Marques, Delagoa Bay, on sched-
ule time. But what a night it. was; the
rain cattle down as if the very heavens
were falling, the wind blew a terrific'.
gale and the darkness which overspread
the whole scene was sueli as 1 bad
never witnessed before. It was, how-
ever. a. fitting night to the experiences
which followed. Stepping from what
the Netherlands Railway Company term
a first-class carriage, I accosted a
heavy -set individual on the plat-
form. 'Can you tell me, sir, which
is the best hotel in Haas placer I ask-
ed.
"' Welt stranger," he remarked, 'that
is hardly a fair question to ask-nse, as
I own both the hotels in this place.'
"I turned over my grip to bine and
foliowved a. crowdof Africans through.
THAT TROPICAL STOR;II.
Dinner was served at the Internation-
al Hotel, but my permanent quarters
were to be at t he Central, both of
these being owned by Jim Carpenter,
the person 1 met at the station. After
dinner an employee of the hotel ask-
ed me if I was ready to go to the Cen-
tial. I replied in the affirmative. He
went to the door, and above the din of
wind and rain could be heard his voeie
yelling 'Sixpence!'
"My belief was that this individual
in
was in soma of the natives
singing g out to m
that a sixpence job was waitingfor any
ot than, who ould take mto the
Central hotel, but it iprove,d to be the
peculiar name of an East African ne-
gro. Sixpence. came with a 'yap boas.'
it seemed as he came that a season of
that black night was
moving
bodily to-
wards -
Wards use. The instruction was to keep
close to 'Sixpence.'"
"The route was through a large gar-
den, e. had hardly entered the gard-
en inclosure when a. terrific scream was
heard. and at. the same tune I was
struck on the head. In an instant I
had my revolver out and fired at my
unknown assailant. hay enemy grap-
pled with me, but before losing my
hold of the revolver, I managed to fire
two more shots. lint it was
AN UNEVEN FIGHT.
I received another blow on the head,
rendering me uncanseious. When I
, which was three
ee
regained consciousness r
g
e
days later, I learned that my firingof
the revolver had attracted the attention
of a man who was known at Delagoa
Bay as 'Texas Wilson.' He told me
that be ran out of his house with his
gun and lantern, and had hardly gone
200 yards when he came across a huge
gorilla carrying me on his back. The
gorilla scowled at him, but he was de-
termined to rescue me from that brute.
After taking a careful aim he manag-
ed to shoot the animal without hitting
me, and killing him. Then he. brought
me to the hotel, where. I afterwards was
informed that a big gorilla had been
sent to Jim Carpenter about three days
previous. He had been tied to a tree
in the garden, but somehow must have
broken his ichain, and was waiting for
the first comer. It was Carpenter's in-
tention to send the gorilla to the
Manchester, England, Zoological Gard -
den as a present.
"This was my first visit in Decemb-
er, 1894, to the sleepy, dirty and sick-
ly town. of Delagoa Bay, on the east
coast ot Africa.

Oriental advices per steamer Aus-
