HOLYWELL URBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL.
HOLYWELL URBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL. A apeoial meeting of the Urban Council was held on Monday ereaing last, for the pmpose of consider- ing matter* connected with the London and North- "Wysteyn (Holywell) Railway Bill, and with the watar ncheme as concerning the abstraction of water from St. Witiefriiie's WfAl there were present:- Messrs J. lfi. Jones (fibairmin), H, V. Lloyd (vice- chairman), J. Phil ip Jons, Jos. Jones, J. Llew. Wiliiaws, T. C. Roberts, A. Earl, T. Ingham, A. Sohwarz, Edw. Foulkes, T. Waterboose, Dr. Jam. Willisaim clerk -,I r F. Llaw. Jonaa deputy clerk —Mr J. Kerfoot Roberts. The Chairman at the opening of the meeting made an exrlllnatioD as to the oenveaing of the meeting, he said Gentlemen, the questions on the agenda for coLsid-rauon at this meeting are of such urgency and importance, that I considered it my duty as Chairman to call this special meeting. Time as you know is limited, and the qceations, espeoially that of a railway, are of such vital importance to the district and our town in particular. Mo donbt yon know, that the deep obannel is now wiehio a quarter of a mile from Greenfield Dock and is over feet desp, which will in the course of a shoit time make this dock one of the most important and convenient on tre Welsh Coast. Many of u. remember wken Holywell was in a state of prosperity which was chiefly because great business was doce at the Green- field Dock, and if industries ara to be opened one 4nd the former prosperity to return, it will be by means of facilities offered by the opening of the docks and aheap rates of water carriage. When the steamers traded regularly between Holywell and Liverpool most of the goods were then brought by water, aod when the quarries were in full swing thousands of tons of atone weekly were exported from Greenfield. Apart from this gentlemen, we hope to see the Dee Navigation Saheme making headway, you will therefore at once see how important it is thst Holy- well should not be behind in doing its duty in guarding tha interests of the town and aistriot whilst at the same time doing everything to fu t' er th«i<e important movements. As far as I can gat ies the Railway Company has half promised to put a rail- way siding to the Greenfield Dooir, a d iu this there are two things that we must carA.dly watch, first, that a hr ugh ate from Holy wtll to a d from the Wkarf must be fixed in the Bill no* be" e Pa lia- ment, and also the rata for carry ictt the raw tuateriai from the mouutan. Also that toe Rail -,ay Company suoaid not have poster or do ar»ythi to prcvwtt another railway coming to this dis ri t, a< I am not qQíli our bat that to anot, e, Railway C -upany we aamt lo k to for t ie «alvatn n of Holy ell, -8 it is quite ..vid nt Ii) every obs rVdr that Greenfi Id will be v.,ry impurttnt phce in tue a. a!- rutIJr1 and naturally H lyweli share in those benefits. We must als i i sist it at a f ,ot oridge be Hie te aorosaed the path t at !«•<*» to the Sirand, n-ar Bryaaiawr. It will 0.. "0 Ute when the Bili bas become law, and I aID af aid that DOle-S ve tx-f. our?elve* now that thf town and district may suffer iu tue future to a greater e*tea than we have ^afltred in the past. The other question is tbe Water Question, also a very important matter, and it is only tight that we should know at once the teems and conditions upon whioh water can be abstracted form St. Winefride'a Well for domestic purposes. These important questions gentlemen, quite justify our meeting here this even- ing. As you are aware our Clerk has been one of a deputation with the Coarty C, unctl and the Rural Council reprcseatatives to Boston, and also to see Sir Pyers Mostyn'a solicitors respecting the water question, we shall now gtt his report in detail. But whether gentlemen, we at all gll iuto committee for the purpose of discussing these questions and receiving the Clerk's report, I shall be glad to know. Mx Joseph Jones remarked he did not think it wise to give publioity to the negoeiations on the water question. It would be better, he considered, to take those matters in committee. Mr J. P. Jones: I notice the first item is, to receive the report of the Clerk. Can he tell us in a few words, what the purport of the report is, if the report is complete P The Clerk: The report cannot ba a complete one without certain communications being received. It is advisable that the matter be dealt with in committee. Mr J. P. Jones That being eo. I move that the Council consider the business of the meeting in sommittee. Mr T. 0. Roberts: On the two questions f Mr J. P. Jones: The Clerk advise us, so I say yen. Mr T. 0. Roberts: As the Clerk advises the Council, I second the proposition. Dr. Jas, William*: Is the report, the Clerk is to give the meeting, a final one or not P The Oierk: It is not final. Dr. Jas. Williams: If not final it will he better to kear it is committee. ] The proposition was carried, and the Council oon- sidered the matters in committee. On the matter of the Railway question it was deciied to act in conjunction with the Holywell Rural District Council and the County Coanoil with the now to opposiBg the Holywoll Railway Bill, unles,i &in arrangement be made to grant the claim to railway aiding to the Wharf, at Greenfield. The 0 airman, Vioe-ohatrman, and Chairmen of Com- miteea were appointed the deputation to represent the Council at the County Counoil.

Jones, Inspector, Holywell. Mr Wm. Thomas proposed that the p'an and estimate before the meeting be adopted. In doisg so he stated that th- re were in the d stsict to be supplied 33 hDU,fS with 137 inhabit- ant's. A great amouut had been spent in the parish in looking for water, but then we hsd a sure sapply without any ri-k attached to it. The amount is rather high but this eeemed the only way of meeting the diffiotilty. Mr Thos. Hughes seoonded and endorsed what had fcesn said by Mr Wm. Thomas. —Mr TboF. Roberts: We are all in sympathy with the inhabitants of Gronaat, but we would prefer that tbe matter be postponed for further consideration. Mr E. Thoaas After the last meeting the member of the Axton Ward met the Inspector at Newmarket to inquire into a suggested supply of water for Axton aud Berrheiigauo. A very strong spring at this spot in a quarry bslongiog to Mr John Roberta, Mostyn drme, which wouid apparently be sufficient for the Axton and Gronant Wards.—Mr T. Evatis, (Axton) proposed as an amendment that the mattar be post- poned until the spring at Newmarket was tested. This was seconded by Mr S. Fierce.

BRYNFORD, FEEDING EXPERIMENT WITH MOUNTAIN LAMBS. SUGAR FOODS V. OATS. Interesting pamphlets are from time to time issued by Professor Winter, from the Agricultural Department of the Uuiversity College of North Wales. One of the latest iseaed, has partioular interest to feelers of mountain theep. I The experiwe, t has been carried out at Madryn Farm, on the feeding of mountain lambs with "Molasonit," as oompared with crushed oats. The I report states:— During tbe last three years we have oarried out a series ot experiments with a cumber of the so a series ot experiments with a cumber of the so called "sugar foods." In the first instanoe the foods were fed to oattle, bat daring the last two years they have been fed to mountain we her lambs. In all cases the sagar focd has been conpared with oats, the feeding stuff moat commonly employed in North Wales. These sugar foods consist chiefly of molasses, along with some substance 01 substances used as absorbents. The partiouJar foods with which our trials have bean made are Molassine," said to be a combination of sugar, treacle or syrup with vegetable Bufcstances;" Alcorn sugar fud mtal, which is described as being made entirely of oorn products and pura cane molasses;" Alfamol, in which the absorbent is said to be American Lucerne hay, and Molascuit, the moit recently tested, which ia described as made entirely from sugar cane, the interior digestible cellulose being used as the absorbent of csfle molasses." For the purposes of the test with Molasouit thirty small monutaia wether lambs were selected towards the end of November from a lot of two hundred, and divided into two lots of fifteen each. They were fed on sliced swedes and long hay, and in addition one lot received crushed oats and the other Molascuit. As the sheep did not care for Molascuit alone, both the oats and Melascnit fed to the different lots were mixed with a little bran. As the result of this mixing the sheep were induced to clean up the Molascuit given to them, but throughout the experiment they never ate it freely. On December 8th the two lots were weighed and the experiments commenced. From the oommenoe- meut to the end of the experiment the feed remained the same, a-t tha sbeep in lot II, would not consume more than tlb. psr day of Molascuit. Lot 1. reoesved on the average. 135 to. slioed swedes, 7i lb. loighay, 31 b. crushed otfi, 3t lb. br^n Lot II. reci.ei1 on the average 135 lb. li ed s *ea»s, lb. 1 ng hay, 3|- lo.

The cost of the concentrated tuods.-Lut I. 262i lb. Bran, 14s. 6d; 2621 lb. Crushed oats, 13s. 9d.; Lot II. 262i lb, Bras, 14s. 6d; 262i lb. Molasouit lis. 2d. The figures show that the sheep in lot I. increased 11 lb. more than those in lot II., and as they were sold at 4,1. per lb. live weight, this increase was worth 4s. 41-d. As, however, the oatis fed to lot I. cost 2s. 7d. more than the same amount of Molasouit fed to lot II., the nett gain ia favour of the oats was Is. 9jd. This was produced by the consumption of 262J lo. of oats, whioh is equivalent to a nett gain of 15s. Id. per ton. Looking at the matter ia another way, if the oats were worth 95 17.. 6d. per ton, the Molasouit would be worth $4 per ton. It is evident, therefore, that the results of this experiment prove the Molascuit to be a much inferior food to oats. It is difficalt to understand why the sheep did not eat it more readily, as to all appe&rance it was rather tempting. The cost of the Molsseuit at Madryn was JE4 per ton, including 10s. carriage. The experiment shows that this figure is somawuat outside its value although if we were to aak^ a comparison with soma of the other sugar foods we oouid not regard it as dear. We hare now triei four of tfcese sugar fcods. Oar experiments have shown that after tak ag into account the difference in mosey value all of them are inferior to oits of average qualify. So far as we have beeu able to judge all the four ara gtood and wholeeome, and, provided properties are act claimsd for them which they did not possess, thece is no reason whatever why thsy should not be freely uied in stock feeding, if they are sold atrea onahle prices. Considered at foods it must be obvious that the prices of some of them are ridiculously high."

The cap fights are over, during which time soma of oar Flintshire league teams have been busy, no much eo that the Isafue fixtures have been neglected. The following are the honours won by the League teams Welsh Amateur Cup-Buckley Engineer". Flintshire Challenge Oup-Backley Engineers. Flintshire Charity Cap-Hawarden Bridge. Flintshire Leagae Championship-Oak Alyn. St. Martin's uup—Oak Alyn. North Wales Coast Junior Cup-Rbyl Vice. Nurch Wales Coast League-Rhyl Vios. With aH these honours, it will be noticed that siime of TBH teams have not been honourable enough to finish the programme theystarted in September I Adt. What is the reason of this, here it is, the secretaries of each olub constitute the exeoutive. Two teams ara to play on a Saturday; one secretary suddenly finds out that his best player cannot play that day he wires his vis-a-vis, and referee, and the deed is done; the league seoretary, who should have first notice, gats it at a later date. Matters ire eaade right at the executive, and other datem arrau god, bat these dates are filled up generally with cap ties and re-plays, with the result that the Flintshire Leagae fixiuves are shelved, and the table presents a miser- able eight as shown above. « The remedy! Here it is in a very few words: A heavier deposit to be imposed on teams in both leagues, say at least £ 3; five or seven iinfluential gentlemen representing the distriots in whioh the clubs are to form the executive; all olubs to have fulfilled a certain number of matches b fore the doxe of the first fouv months, a penalty to be inflioted for neglect. With these amendments added to the present management, the Fiintshire Leaguj would be a power to ooutend with in thot district. < < Just fancy, two teamis-Buckley and Brymbo— being allowed to compete in the final tie on Saturday last, for the Flintshire League Challenge Cup, they not having, on the last Saturday of the season, ful- filled the requirements of the League. How is it that this was allowed ? < < Here is another grievance Greenfield were due at Penymynydd, a few weeks ago, they had arranged to make the journey, but were informed that the Penymynydd team could not play them: still this team appears at Oak Alyn, and get beaten by thiee goals to none. Why conld not this team appear on other grounds ? This leads me to another such case in Division II. More than a month ago Oaergwrle and Hawarden sent ia their notice of withdrawal from the league. The withdrawal of these teams had something to do with the championship, so the Executive refused the withdrawals. Holywell Vias. have made appeals to Caergwrle to fulfil their return fixture, they also tried to arrange dates with Hawarden, bat raild. These two teams were in a sense' dead to the foobtaU world,' but on Saturday last, to the surprise of all (?) the Hawarden team awaken at Gwersyllt, and get a @logging of seven goals to none. I leave it hare, still more strongly advocating a change in the appointment ot exeoutive. < There is no one who deplores this state of things more than the genial leagae searetaty-ur Millar. The fact of the matter is, he is too lenient with those referees and aeorataries who fail to report the result of their matches. This is another point to be chalked up. How is the leagae Secretary to compile his league table at ttke close of the season; and what players are qualified for the varioas gamea.-I understand, not withstanding all these imperfections the League is this year in a better financial position han it has been for many years, it is suggested at headquarters to have a sooial function at the end of J Dly, to which all officials, the exeoutiva, and winners of the oops, along with others, would be invited. At this meeting the fixtures, &c., would be arranged for the coming geatou. The suggestion is a good one, and I sincerely hope it will oome off," thereby giving all connected a chance to rab shoulders. w < Aud now for a parting line. It is closed seasou,9 thsrefore this oolumn is closed' to me. The few imperfeot notes' I hope have done injury to no one, I hope to have the confidence of the various cor- respondents and club secretaries, early next seftson. Yours till next time, SJMOXAXOB."

--.__-_-----------| HOME HINTS.
HOME HINTS. Grass stains may always be removed fey soaking in spirits of wine. II Glass bottles and flower vases may tie puri- fied and cleaned by rinsing them Qut with powdered charcoal. Before icing a cake dust a little dry ffour over it; this will prevent the ieing from run- iling off. After washing the head, do not rub it with a soft Turkish towel, as this leaves fluff in the hair that is hard to remove. Every saucepan that has been used and finished with should be filled with cold water, a lump of soda put into it, and set to boil out. When making fruit pies damp the edge of the pastry with milk instead of water. It II holds better, and the juice is not ao liable to boil over. To clean a sewing machine a stiff paint brush or mucilage brush will be found handy, particularly to reach those parts which it is hard to reach with a cloth. A clean fire for grilling purposes can be obtained by sprinkling over it a little pow- I dered nitre. This is used by all first-class chefs and grill cooks. The best way to treat fruit, tea, or coffee stains is to spread the stain over a bowl, and pour boiling water through until the stain disappears. Try sipping a glass or two of hot milk when "tired out." It will prove very nourishing and stimulating, and is really I better than beef tea. To prevent artichokes turning black when they are cooked, add a little vinegar to the water in which they are boiled. A teaspoon- ful is enough for a small quantity. Carpets in rooms which are seldom used are apt to be attacked by moths. Salt sprinkled round the edges and well under the carpet before it is put down will generally prevent their ravages. To remove stains on white flannel the best way is to mix equal parts of the yolks of eggs and glycerine, apply it to the stains, and al- low it to soak for half an hour or so before the article is washed. Chicken Curry.—Take two tablespoonfuls of butter, half a teaspoonful of onion minced, a tablespoonful of flour and a tea- spoonful of curry powder. Cook until brown and smooth and then add two cupfuls of cold cooked chicken, cut in small pieces. After frying" rub the stove quickly over with a bit of rag dipped in turpentine. This removes all suspicion of grease, and there is no difficulty in cleaning it later, as there would be if the grease were left on. Potato Sausages.—Take cold potatoes and rub through a wire sieve.
