'l‘i-ii-: attention of_ Thi: Gtuniii/i_\' has
b -en called by ii. _gentleman living in
iiiiarlottetown to the followinz: Irish
, farineni are beginning to realize that the
creainery system has many and serious
drawbacks. The threatened ruin of the
Irish cattle tradethc serious injury of the
I-ir tr.ide ani the spread of
the infectious disease especially
of enteric fever amongst the
people are matters now engaging much
attention. The farmers who contribute
new milk to district creameries get back
the separated milk. This is given to
calves and pigs and amongst the poorer
farmers is consumed by membersof the
household. The food value of this waste
product is almost nil, and it compares
,very unfavourably with the buttermilk
formerly given to calves and pigs. Since
tho change of system a very fatal dis-
ease known an scour has broken out
uniongsf- calves fed exclusively on this
separated milk. Not alone does this
sickness cur. oil' inany calves but those that,
survive :ieiniiin stunted in growth and of]
inferior quiility. The Irish Cattle Traders’
Association recently estimated that the`
depreciiitiniz in thc value of the market-1
able siiiinnl arising from this cause is nt '
least £1 per head representing a loss of at
least one million pounds sterling to Irish
cattle-lreeders. Tho seriousness of the
niatter is engaging the attention of the
Department of Agriculture who are seek-
ing for some means to siippleineit
separated milk so as toiestore the nutri-
tive coustitueiits of new milk. '
THE removal of show from the sidewaikni
is nppaidentlya problem that taxes tho’
minds of the municipal fathersof many
cities throughout Canada. For some daysf
past citizens have been impressed with the
fact that the question is worthy of con-
sideratlon,as in many instances the walks
are dangerous. It appears that the desire
of thecitizens is that the sidewalks of
t iis city should be thoroughly cleaned of
snow at an hour suliicientlv early to
parmit all pedestrians to travel with
comfort in any part of the city. The
objection to the snow plow appears to.
be that after it has passed over the walk
a hillock remains in the centre of the
path; this isa serious objection and is one
that calls for a remedy. Effective work
at present apparently can only be done
by everyone cleaning in fronty of
his own property. _ Objection
has been raised to individual
work,however,an'd the contention is made
that whereevery man does his own work
it will unavoidably be done with a ditfer-
ent degree of efficiency. Already we have
had experienced of this where any one por-
son clears his walks closer to the stone or
the plank than his neighbor the result is
that when a thaw comes the sidewalk of
the most zealous person has been impass-
ible, the water running from the highest
lands to the lower. It will be the duty of
those in authority under the existing
bylaw to see that, notwithstanding the
objection, that individual work is carried
outtothe best advantage possible and
that all comply.

with good faculties. James 'Crowell
sometimes heard from his brother-the
last time about six months ago. Ho
always referred in his letters to the
Crowell fortune, He would be about 70
years of age, and leaves a widow and
family. James Crowell of Lawrence,

has contributed with thc other heirs to n

is another brother Reuben, also residing
