..Practice" in Land Matters.

Ms EpiroR-I regret much that many parties
should have thought it either pleasant profitable
to SO far misocn,tue the purport OF eommuntca-
iion FROM me in regard TO the Lnco claim. publish
ed in the Herald Of the l2th uiime as 10 give it
meaning greatly different from what | intended
and from what the language itself imported.
The expression therein used, According "a the
recently adopted practice OF the Land Department
Luco will be apt tn get title from the Govern
ment, was only the declaration Of fact without
expressing an opinion IS Its pruprietv. while the
context disSeutei from both the prcpriety and le-
ssty OF that fact. which then believed to be SUCH
and still believe certainty. The recently aGop'
ted practice cf the Land department needs some
explanation. /, IS well known that the Suscol Act
of March Sd, lS52. which authorized the purcha>
of the Sraot title 10 purchase the lands At 5 .
per acre only to the exteGt 70 which they had re
daced the u possession a. tue time 0i the II
lection ef the grant claiG upon proof ii bona fde
purchase the cNten; Ia which they had reduced
the same 10 possession and also proof OF settlement
was the first Of its klad. and the first To be con
strued and deciiei by the Land Department. Be-
ing an attorney in a number Of the cases growing
out Of that law. I OF course could not help kaow-
ing what construction was placed upon that law ,
and how the land Department disposed OF cases
arising Gnder i.
The Suscol Act was much more stringent in its
provisions to the status of the party seeking 10
purchase than Is the law under which i.gco claims.
Under the former no one could purchase any land
except what he had reduced to possession when The
grant xaS rejected, AID ne C0Glu OUiy purchase
tha; by nrpvinS himself bona fde purchaser Of
the gran, siue aud settlement Of the land, sui must
apply 70 purchase within year from the dlins of
the plsts-at least this the language Of the law.
Many % the gFSnt purchasers brought them selves
within tie provisions OF the Jaw, and as 10 their
claims the '.prsciiee' of the Land Department bad
a semhlsncs OF fairness. But great many applied
70 purchase land Geder the law who were not With
III lis provisions az all and the practice OF the De
psrtment IN respect 10 such cases was not only s
precedent fox Loco 10 work by, bat was all that he
could desire The provision OF the Snscol Act
which required proof ot settlement was held by the
Department 10 be surpluSage, and null and void;
whenever the proof showed that grant claimants
had not reduced the land 80 possession q; the time
required the Department held that it would not dc

BILE stock for cowkeepers in town with
whom the Yorkshire COW, essentially short
horn IS The favorite breed, as it sarpasses
all others for The Quantity of milk It yields.
The milk. however, compared with that of
the Alderney or Ayrshire COW, is more
wssery and less rich in butter, and there
fore not well suited for diaries in which
butter and cheeseaw made: In the spring
OF the year and the early part Of the sum
mer, milk is more abundant, and the butter
made from it of a finer favor. And as the
season advances the supply diminishes, but
becomes richer in butter. The influence of
food on the quality of milk is very striking.
"A half starved COW not only yields but lit
tie milk, but what it yields is miserably
POOR. On the other hand, the liberal supply
of food rich in heterogeneous and phosphate
elements of nutritious tells directly on the
milk. Nothing, therefore, can be more
injudicioas than 20 stint dairy COWS in
food.
