Mr. and Mrs Edward Duff bave returned to Boston. Mr. Duff and Alfred, son of Wm. Duff bave had excellent eport duck shootibg having bagged \in two deys about 60 birds. Edward is a crack shot aod Alfred is not tar bebind him having gone uoder a couree of training by the “old man,” a veteran sportsman.

We have po money order cffice nor FP. O. Savings Dank, and yetsome people prate of the wonderful ‘“‘businees” government. The Department requires @ petition pray- ing and begging forour rights, yet tbe seme Department can change the Post Office at Lot 40 against the wishes of 99- 100 of the peoyle without a petition.

We have in this vicinity firet ciass horses and beg+—fair cattle and sheep, but our geese and chickens are very inferior. it scmeone could devise a plan to induce our farmcre to substitute the emal! bens for the improved Plymouth Rocks or other similar breeds that person would be a j hilantbropist indeed. The chicken indus- try is a coming one, and there is money in it, But no market can be found for the majority ofthe emall and poor stock offered here.
