The preservation of licenses is to be taken out of the hands of officiating ministers, and is to be handled in a more business -like way by the department it• self. After the perforiniug of the" cere- mony. under the new regulations the clergyman is directed to fore and the doonments iu his possession to the Government officials in the Queen's Park. A change is made alsoin the rules governing the issuers of licenses. It has been customary for the persons issuing licenses to place the affidavits taken on file in their own offices. In future these papers will be preserved in vaults of the Registrar General's Depart- ment. The ,dairy season of 1905 so far has been one of the most prosperous on record for the Canadian producer. The export demand has been unusually ac- tive, and shipments from Montreal eince the opening „of nayigation total 87,836 boxes, or 131,294 boxes more than a year ago, a record only once before exceeded. This was in the banner year 1903, when over one million boxes were exported up to August 1st. Prices are now 2c to 3c higher than a year ago, and the aggre• gate volume of the exports for the year should nearly total that of 1903, when the exports of the season represented a return to the Canadian dairymen of $21,563,388. Last year prices were as low as 0 1-2c on the country boards, but the bottom figure this year has been 8 13.16c, a higher figure than was reached during the entire season of 1904.

I learned a little adage when I was a boy that has saved the some money Im dealing with horses, and that is this. "No feet, no horse."

It is a. ionic and a cure for many aliments with which fowls are afflicted, especial- ly bowel trouble caused by indigestion. It is of little value upless fresh, as It otherwise does not possess the power of absorbing gases. For this reason but little should be placed in the poul- try house at a time. To secure 'the best results placed the required amount in a hbt oven until it becomes thoroughl3r heated, then pound it in pieces not. larger than grains of rice. Even if stale charcoal were just as good for poultry it would still be best to heat it before using, as it absorbs all bad odors and gases and might be harmful if fed in that condition. Heat purifies it so that all harmful qualities are destroyed. Grain of any hind parched until it is black is one of the best forms in which charcoal can be fed. To keep the fowls bury burn some corn on the cob until/ it is thoroughly charred and throw it to them in that way. They eat It greedily, and, being hard to. get trona the cob, 1t keeps them workingat it for a long time. -Cor.
