pie of what may be accomplished by energy and
business talent Among other improvements
upon his ranch Mr.. McGillivray has taken up
two hundred trees this winter to be replaced by
other and more valuable varieties. We are in

has not been able to catch up with the demand
for lumber The ditch has capacity of thirty
heads of water, all of which finds ready sale,
and is filled from Canon creek eight months of

The Imperial Budget md Sources of Reve-

The ootctal Gazette of November published three
important reports relative to the law on the grst
tax. The first, from the Minister OF the Interior,
accompanying the results OF the investigation made
by the commission charged with inquirlng into the
disorders in the province OF Emilia, Occasi0ned by
the evyng OF impost; the second Is that Of the
commission, and the third emanates from the

numerous arrears, caunot yet pay anything to
the Treasury The tax is therefore. not yet
completely established Its proper bases, but there
Is nevertheless progress, and the Count also
remarks that In other countries imposts at present
accepted by all and regularly paid, produced for
many years only very contestable and imperfect
results. With respect to the meters the Minister
calculates that II the Italian and foreign manufac
ment might have had 90 500 al its disposal by the end
OF August OF this year; the delay has however been
such that only 9,160 have been delivered. The
authorities hope that In consequence OF the present
