In this case some of the stamps.-.-ten or fifteen, could be utilized for custom work. There is no doubt that a custom mill at either McKinney or Fairview would be kept busy the year round, and pay a handsome dividend, A notice has been posted up in the hotel at Penticton by Mr. W. Bullock- Webster, collector at Osoyoos, calling the attention of sportsmen, other than those domiciled in the province, to the clause in the game law to the effect that it is neccsary to obtain a $50 licence before proceeding to hunt big game. It would be well if notices to the same effect were placed in other prominent positions, so that strangers might become acquainted with tlio fact that such a law exists, as it would seem by recent experience, it is possible for hunting parties to come into British Columbia and proceed to the hunting grounds in ignorance of tlie fact that such a licence is necessary, thereby occasioning a great deal of unnecessary trouble to the collectors and some amount of annoyance to the bunts- men. Granted that the tax is a just one,, the stranger should be given the option of paying the same or not by u.#an.s being taken to bring the fact to hjs notice before he has broken the lojf, thereby becoming responsible. Mr. J. Grozler of the Mission valley certainly struck the right nail on the Head when lie stated at a recent, meeting of the A. and T, Association at Kejutrna (as reported hy the Vert|ou News) that the ejs|i«rjiuenh>l 'farm at Agassiz was of no practical value to the people east of the Cascades. As the climate of the coast and Interior sections of the province are so utterly dissimilar this is self obvious, and, as a mutter of fact, the experimental station at Agassiz is of as much value to the Okanagan farmer or orchardisl as those at Indian Head, Ottawa or Brandon. Unless we are greatly mistaken, a separate experimental farm for the interior of the province w;[a advocated in the second or third issue of t he Vernon News—a long time ago—and it seems sli.ing.i that the matter should have been let drop so quietly. This is a question which might well be taken HP by the Provincial Horticultural Board. Experimental farms are useful institutions (this cannot be denied) to those who live iu districts, the climate and soil of which are similar to those of the place in. whicli the farm is established, bnt to no others. Every kind of pressure should be brought to bear (political if necessary, as nothing of the kind can lie accomplished, iu Canada without some kind of political influence being brought into play) to IpfVP an experimental farm for the iu: terior of the proviuce estaJiljiilied before next sprh|g, »»-*——— a.*,»w«*-wWw*,...'wv^.4iavr WAH.MI,y #T3LC01IED, fftit'ti null lauly Aberdeen Kiitertiilneil by ibe i aii/i-n.. nl Vernon, October 20th was a red letter day in the annals of Vernon city. For some days before it hud been known thai His Excellency the Governor-General and Lady Aberdeen would arrive on that day and urrangeinents were accordingly made to give them a lilting reception. After much cogitation it was finally decided to erect an arch just above the two bunks, and to further decorate Hint, portion nf the town. The railway platform was also brightened up by a small arch bearing the motto "(Ind save the Queen," und a fine portrait of llpr Majesty. The large arch had " welcome to Veppon" on it in large lettering.

His Excellency tljen look the address and made a lengthy and very appropriate reply. Little Missus Martin, Ireland and Ellison then presented bouquets to Her Excellency and Lady Marjorle, The civic body were then introduced and the parties were then led to the carriages waiting for them, who were first driven to Mr. O'Keefe's new road for a view of the town and then back round by, the schoolhouse to the Kalemulku hotel. At one o'clock an excellent luncheon was served to their excelleppjeg and suite and about twenty invited guests, whien passed off very pleasantly. The vice-regal party then drove out to their Qkaiiagan home, the .Coldstream ranch, escorted by the '"mayor, aldermen and prominent citizens. Altogether, the reception given to the Governor-General and Lady Aberdeen was, as it should have been, a very cordial oue. Kngllsb Church Concert nt Vernon.

A well-bnlanceil feeding ration, containing in the approximately proper proportions all the essential elements for tho production of flesh and bone, necessitates the purchase of nitrogenous foods not available ou tho farm, such as cotton or linseed meal, or bran, To ascertain whether farmers were justified in paying high prices fur those extra foods, says t'.ie American Agriculturist, when lhey have annbijudaiico of maize, has been the object in feeling experi niehtsby R, II. Miller of tho Maryland station (B. 22), One lot of grade Short horn atari's were N on ti rr.t'.o1! ■>' ftf teen parts, by weight, of corn and cob meal, cotton seed meal flour, bran two, cut turnips fifteen, corn fodder twontv, and one part of molasses. A second lot of tho same grade of steers received a poorly balanced ration of tlie above foods, omitting the cotton-seed meal ami brim, their places hping taken by an increased quantity of corn ain'i cub meal. Tlin steers fed the well lml anceil ration made an average daily gain of 2,78 pounds; those given the poorly balanced ration made an average gain of 1,71) pounds, There was an increased profit of $7,0(1 per steer in favor of the welMmlasccd ration, It was s!:o; it thai with a well-balanced fewlini ninety days is ample time in which tl fatten a steer for market.

Some tanners ask "what will we do for sleets if wi) veal all the cnlves'l'' The point in tin- mailer is this—nil will not do il, und the. money in calf growing is to those flirt do.

There can lie no doubt on this subject, as imiiile experieilce of our hest dairy men and farmers havo proved it to he the case. A cow giving twenty live pounds of milk a day wnilu being fed It milking, fell off to a quarter of that weight in three weeks by having tlie time of fie ling changed, and lieing' milked by other hands. Both exerted their special iiilluence. But what was unusual was Iho regiiiuing the former quantity of milk by again receiving the former ration at milking time, and being again niilkod by the accustomed milker, Another COW t|int had yielded a large daily quantity of milk, h'l'i g greatly fallen off in her mill!, was f d nt milking time, and though milked i-y the saute mini as formerly, regained her usual How and quantity of milk. The ration at milking time must have brought the change. The family cow, generally, is thin fed, and t',10 average family cow is Iho largest milker. Tiie Contentment of a feeding cow onuses her to give down her milk in free and full measure, Kind treatment, at the same time, is paid for iu milk,—American Agriculturist, at I" i. -:|i, t'l i,;|:m I'l'M all,' .'i! .
