Tuberculous Cows. To the Editor of the Weekly News. Sir,—In view of the serious report of our Medical Officer in yesterday's Urban Dis- trict Council meeting, I think that the views of our trade should be made public in refer- ence to this important question of protect- ing the public from both milk and meat from cattle affected with this disease First, I should like to point out the very unfair position of our trade in reference to this matter. If a butcher exposes for sale a carcase affected witn tuberculosis, he is fined and sometimes sent to prison for the offence, although he has no knowledge be- fore slaughtering that the beast was affected. Also the purchase money is gone and his trade spoiled, which is his living. Hence his agitation for a warrant from the farmei that the beasts bought are fit for the pur- pose intended, namely, for the food of man. This is very unfair for a respectable I trade and not satisfactory for the public. I think the time has come when all milking "ows should go under the tuberculin tests, and if found unsound should be destroyed, and the farmer compensated out of Imperial fund. They do now compensate the farmer in cases of infectious disease to protect the herds, but so far not to protect human lives. As I believe that tuberculosis is transmittable from the bovine to the human it is very important that our milk and meat supply should be sound and healthy. If it is the intention of the committee which has the national memorial to our late King in hand to build sanatorium's, they will be oj, no till we get this great question satisfactorily settled. As to the doctor's report, I understand on inquiry that one of these cows mentioned was sold to a cattle dealer and taken out of the district, and the other is going to be fattened for the butcher, and yet our Medical Officer has no power to get the same destroyed; but, as the doctor said the other day, he is going to watch the same being sold to some unfortu-nate butcher, and I suppose if he ran will make him a criminal and spoil his livelihood. I ask you, sir, do you consider this justice to an honourable trade ? I shall leave the public to decide.—Faithfully yours, T. R. DAVIES. President N.W. Meat Traders' Association. Windsor House, Colwyn Bay.

Rhyl Bankrupt's Application. Before His Honour Judge Moss, at the Bangor County Court, on Monday, Robert Flint, formerly licensee of the lorne Hotel, Hhyl, applied for his discharge in bank- ruptcy. The applicant became banrupt in 1909 with liabilities expected to rank amount- ing to (I ,210. A dividend of 3s. 7d. in the pound had been paid. The Official Receiver said the bankrupt started at the Lome Hotel in an insolvent condition. The debtor said he wanted his discharge because he wanted to get a situation. He was not in a position to make anv offer and had no prospect of doing so. The Officia! Receiver objected that the bankrupt had not sufficient assets to pay 10s. in the pound. The order asked for was granted but suspended for two years.

The Stock Exchange and the Political Crisis. The Stock Exchange is approaching the end of the year in a satisfactory condition, and though forecasts of good times in Janu- ary are perennial and are often not ful- filled, one hears at the present plenty of prognostications that the advent of the New Year will bring with it a notable improve- ment in the volume of Throgmorton-street business. At present, while the temper of the house is good, there is admittedly not much in the way of fresh dealings, the public, since the failure of the political conference ntinated clearly that a General Election was inevitable, having done very little either in investment or speculative channels. The feeling of unrest generated by the election, however, is already dying away, and at the fortnightly carryover ar- ranged this week there was noticeable such a restriction of commitments on all hands that markets are obviously in a healthy con- dition and ready to respond to all favour- able influences, which may develope. The rebound, which Las taken place in Consols, from the lowest levels reached early in the month, is typical of the improvement in Stock Exchange sentiment generally. The premier security is the best part of a point over the bottom and even a small fraction in advance of the make-up "I price at the last monthly settlement. This recovery has been due to some special causes, such as buying by the Government broker and pur- chases on French account, but it has never- theless had an appreciable effect in con- firming the Stock Exchange in its more con- fident temper. As regards general factors, markets have nothing to grumble at. The monetary situation grows more and more favourable. Call money is down in the neighbourhood of 2 per cent, and at the settlement this week the banks were lend- ing money to the brokers for a fortnight at 4I to 4| per cent., or fully £ per cent, under the rate charged at the end of No- vember settlement. Contangoes were con- sequently lighter all round, a fact of which prospective bulls may be counted upon to take due rote. The healthy technical condition of markets and the decline in money rates has encouraged insiders to put values forward fairly substantially all round in the wake of Consols, and they have ex- perienced little difficulty in taking this course, the stale bull element having been quite eliminated. Another considera- tion calculated to favourably impress mar- kets has been the change for the better in the labour situation. At last the great ship- building lockout has been terminated by a ballot on which 13,715 voted for acceptance of the masters' revised terms, and only 1,290 against. The lockout had been dragg- ing on for over three months, and the settle- ment of the dispute is oound to react in a stimulating fashion upon industry generally.

Flour-Milling in North Wales I Among the comparatively few industries in North Wales, Hour-milling has come to occupy an unexpected and quite remarkable prominence. This is solely due to the won- derful enterprise associated with the Bangor Flake Flour*Mills at Fangor, the largest con- cern of its kind in a very wide district. ^\hat is the secret of this firm's success ? The answer cannot be given m a word, but a very ]ar(,e element attention bestowed large element is the attention bestowed upon the three capital factors of value quality, and price. The flours milled by them produce bread of delicious flavour and. what is no less important to the con- suming public, are warranted the natural colour produced by high-class milling. In these days of chemical treatment of food, when so many eatables are certainly not what they seem, it is cause for gratitude that there is a North Wales iirm whose flour is the genuine article.
