This year a franchise was granted for the Matsqui municipality. ���������s;nce which time about twenty or more phones have bee-n installed with a central at Matsqui.

Thc quality of , the b'rda was well to the mark ��������� and the' offering was somewhat more'varied than usual. Some exceptionally fine Pekin'"''ducks wen* offered and .among them were a pair'of drakes which; wero; finally, sold at $2.00 each. The buyers purchasing them with a number of others allowed $1.75 each for these particularb iuis and uirncd them ovcr;again at $2.00 per bird. Some Houdans attracted a considerable amount of attention as it is seldom that that .variety of bird is offered on the market. These were bought up bybreedera of fancy ������Lock at $1 each. Aiong<.generaI lines the prices remained exactly , the same as those of last wee-k. It is expected there will be no partic ular change until Christmas week when a considerable advance may be looked forward to.
