CRICKHOWELL LICENSEE'S FAilURE. The first meeting cf the creditors of John Henry Herbert, of the Three Salmons Inn, Crickhoweli, was held last week at the offices of the Official Receiver, Newport. The summary of debtor's statement of affairs showed that the gross liabilities were f227 5t; 3d, and L222 6s 2d was expected to rank for dividend. The causes of failure were given as illness of wife for nine months." Joss through colliery strike and the war." In the Official Receiver's observations it was stated The debtor (aged 39) com- menced business as a licensed victualler in December, 1905, at the Three Salmons Inn, Crickhowell, having then a capital of £80, balance of Y,145 which came to him under the intestacy of an aunt, who up to .her death was the owner and licensee of the inn. It is stated that the debtor's eldest brother took over the whole of this aunt's estate, paying off the shares due to his other brothers and sisters. No sum was paid by the debtor for in-going in December, 1905, but the rent of the inn was fixed at E25 a < year. He remained tenant until January, 1915, when the license was transferred, the new tenant paying the value of the in-going to the trustees of the debtor's brother; the tatter died in April, 1915. His executors being unable to find a new tenant, arrange- ments were made in March last for the debtor to take over the tenancy at the rent of a private house. Nothing was then paid by him for trade fittings, utensils, etc., or the proportion of the license, which is now in his name. He states that no spirits have been purchased by him since April last, and only a small quantity of beer. The debtor has also worked as a stonemason. No books of account were kept, nor has the debtor a banking account. He states that the takings since April were practically nil, that in January, 1915, they were about E2, per week, and before August, 1914, about fA a week."

St. David's Diocesan Conference. The Bishop of St. David's presided at a special meeting of the St David's Diocesan Conference held at the Church House, Carmarthen, on Thursday, to "consider the resolution sent down by the Joint Committee of the Church in Wales. The resolution, which expresses approval of the principle of the four Diocesan Conferences in Wales being represented at a Convention of the Church in Wales by delegates of each Conference, was passed, on the motion of Canon Joyce, Lampeter. The Bishop said he was fully satisfied that the provisional proposals which would be submitted to the Convention would not prejudice in any way the equitable reconsideration of the Welsh Church Act, for which Churchmen in England and Wales were determined to press 28 soon as the present strain- of national anxiety was relieved. At a meeting of the Executive of St David's Diocesan Board of Finance, it was decided to make a special appeal to the diocese to increase the funds during the year, so that special grants could be made to the clergy in charge of small livings to meet the increase in the cost of living.

WAENAVON PROPERTY DISPUTE. Family Quarrel Settled at Crickhowell County Court. At Crickhoweli County CourS, on Thursday Is-4t, an interesting action was beard before His Hflcoor Jodgs Hil! Kaily. The plaintiff was Mr Albert R^as, of Darrenfelen. Llaoelly Hill and the defendant was Mary Ann Jones, ] wife of Charles Joaea, of Llama rob, Llauelly Hill. Mr Lioooln Reed (lastruoted by Mr ThoB. Vaagban, Cticklioweli) appeared for plaintiff and Mr St- John Fraocie Williams (instructed by Mr D. Gibpon Harris, Brynrnawr) defended. Mr Reed explained that the partieei to the action wero brother and sister and the matter in qaestion was a family dispute, in which all the usual bitterness had beau displayed and WbiQh came befora bis Honoar in spite of repeated a.n'l coufcinusd efforts to bring about a Settlement by the legal gentlemen engaped on the case, The property in dispute was of very small value. and even if the plaintiff Succeeded in obtaining a verdict be would not be able to reimburse to himself all the money that bad been spent. The plaintiff claimed to set aside a deed transferring two cottages from &be late Elizabeth Rees, mother of the parties, to Mrs JOXM-S, on the grounds that (1) no con- sideration passed or only a pretended consideration (2) that Mra Rees was at the x time she executed tbe deed incapable of under- standing and appreciating what she was doing (3) that I3he bad no separate and independent advice and (4) that the execution of the dooament was not her own voluntary act and the result of her unfettered judgment. He proposed to call sufficient evidence to shew that the o!d lady WAR feeble and illiterate and that she was not strong mentally, which facts, he would afterwards submit, would be sufficient ground for asbing the defendant to satisfy the ooart on the poinss mentioned. Plaintiff stated that bis mother was old and feeble, and though not entirely illiterate always I signed by means of a cross. She died in August, 1915. She owned two cottages at Llatnarch (which had baen made into three), held on a least? from the Dake of Beaufort Expiring in 1929. When he ascertained that She bad traneferred bor property to defendant, he took her to see Mr R. H. A. Davies, Solicitor, Criokhowell, about the matter. He was satisfied that his mother never owed defendant XIOO, as stated in the deed. In crofia-examination, witness admitted that he bad taken the lease of his mother's property to Mr Davits, who was solicitor to the Duke of Beaafocc, and got him to endorse a liceube on it to transfer the property to him and also tr, draw up an assignment, bat he bad intended paying for the property. The license and tbe assignment ware subsequently can- celled. His mother bad lived a good part of the time sicoe his fatbet't! death with defen. dant, but she bad also lived a long time with him and bis brother. Mr R. H. A. Davies (solicitor to fcbs Duke of Beaufort and registrar of (he Ooort) was called and stated tbat in his opinion Mrs Rees was not fit to transact business &&4&r back as 1911. He took her instructions in May, 1915, to Obtain ber property back, and had uorrespon- denoe Rod interviews with plaintiff's and defendant's solictors. Defendant's solicitor !id, with his consent and that of Mr Vaughan, interviewed the old lady, and the corresporider-ce shewed that whilst all three solicitors were en/ioavoariog to solve the difficult problem of providing for ber in proper manner she disci. He took no part il) the tn&tter after her death. Mr Hofih CcrbeSt, who bad at one time been collecting rents. stated that when Mrs Rees eD' to live with defendant the latter owed her X6 for rent. Mr Reed submitted that he had called sufficient evidence to raise a presumption of incapacity and that the onus was now upon defendant. His Honoar intimated that Mr Davies' evidence was such as to raise some doubt in his mind, and be would call upon the defence. Defendant etated that Binoe the death of her t fatber in 1900 Mrs Rsea bad lived the greater part of her time with ber, "ltving through and thscagb." WitnetB bad bcught her food and clothes and had lent bpr money from time to time to pay ground ran4, rates, and insurance premiums. She denied owing her mother anything for rent. Her mother bad quarrelled with Albert and ber brother Will about the property, aa they had tried to get it from her. Will bad isaOsti an ejectment notice against her motber. She took her mother from Will's house in March, 1913, when fsbe waa in rags and her hair had to be cat off. Her mother afterwards made a will in her favoor in May of tb.¡t year and in July, 1914, made the deed which was being contested. Witness had nothing to do with it and did not know the contents of it until afterwards. Her mother was in her debt to a considerable extent. Mr Harris had taken instructions from ber mother and his clerk had obtained her mother's execution. In cross-examination, she denied uaiug any influence to obtain the d(ed in question. Her mother waa ou good terms with ber op to June 25th. She bad not received any rent from the property lately, as Mr Harris had kept it towards costs. She had received pome rent previous to ber mother going to see Mr Dawiee. She denied that her brother had looked after her mother. She admitted tbat her mother might have had enough to support her oat of tbe rems, which would be about 30 a month, but ber brother Benjamin had not paid reut aor? owed X40 when be died. Mr Daniel Gibson Harris solicitor, B"rynUlf.H.r. ntated that he was fjrflt consulted when f jectrneat proceedings were commenced by William Reps. Afler Mrs Rees hnd gone to lice with Mrr4 Jones he made her will, leaving the property to Mrs Joues subject to legacies amnnutiog to J675 Io July, 1914, in constqaenco of a message, be culled upon Mrs Rees, and she instructed him o transfer her booses to ber daughter in oonsidtratioo of £100 which she stated was the amount she thought she owed her daughter. She refused to have a dedti of gift, as it would be no gift to Mrs Jonep, who was the only one who had looked after her He caotioned her as to the effect of the transaction, recalling to her mind previous tracoactiona with the property, and told her that this wonld be final and irrevocable. His elpik took the deed to Mrs Rees for exeontion. CroEs rxsnjined He denied that be 6QKgeeied the consideration to Mrs Rees. He could not remember the conversation word for word, bnt, WAS almost sure that Mrs Rees used I the words "flOO or more" in answer to hn question as to what she owed defn;(j!£().' He differed entirely to Mr Davies as to ber menial c&pacity, and that gentleman had granted a license for the assignment in qaestion. He was absolutely satiefied that Mrs Rees knew perfectly well what she was doing. He admitted that the license had not been applied for until some time after the deed wee executed, and tbat the ledger account had úOt been altered into the narna of Mrs Jones. Taut waa entirely due to the war, as he i to camp with tbe Territorials tbe wecfk sfter tbo signing of the deed, and then, in ooustque-nce of mobilisation and hip subsequent ilIntos,be did very little offioe work that winter. He admitted tbat after the detb. of Mrs Ree: he caused the will to he proved in eoieuin form, but tbat was not obstruction it was to obtain testimony as to the mental capacity d the deceased. He told Mr Vaogban th-it Mrs Jones would probably offer obstruction, bat that was when Mrs Jones had, at the rfqueftt of Mr Yaughan, gone to an independeht. solicitor. His conversations with Mr Vnngh-n; were being twisted. Mr Llewelyn Evans, articled clerk to Mr Harris, proved the execution of tbe deed atid stated that there could be no doubt as to the mental capacity of Mrs Rees and that she knew what she was about. Cross-examined He was responsible for the ledger and had refrained fiom altering the account in question during the absence of Mr Harris. The receipts for rent were given by bimi and corresponded with his ledger account. After Mr Harris returdej to the office, the receipts were given on bebalt of Mrs Jones and eventually a new ledger account was opened in her name. Mr Harris bad taken instructions from Mrs Rees. He only saw her on two occasions, on the execotiou of the will and the deed. Mr William Gunter, Lianeillp Hill, said be read over and explained the deed to Mrs Rees after execution. She appeared to coder- stand it perfectly. He was not an interested party. In the course of an able summing up, the Judge said it was an unfortunate family dispute in which it might be said that the children of the deceased bad made efforts to obtain the property during her lifetime. It was obvious that there bad been previoas transactions with the eons, and perhaps it would be Baid tbat defeudaot bad m%de the final and successful effort. There was no evidence to satisfy him tbat she had made such an effort. Dealing seriatim with the grounds of the claim, ha thought that the question of consideration was entirely im. material. There was simply a recital that deceased owed defendant £ 100. That might or might not have been he case, bus tibe had at any rate said that ebe did. If tbe consiii-t tion had heen illusory, and the assignor hau I been deoeived, it would have been another matter, but be thought plaintiff failed oow. pletely in that respect. With regard to the capacity of the deoeased, the most striking evidence was tbat of the defendant, who stated tbat her mother bad to be washed and looked after and she had bad to cut ber hair off and burn her clothes. However, the impression created in his mind by that evidence had not been sustained. Mr Daviati's testimony, I though he aitaohed some importance to it, did not go quite far enough, and ou tbe other baud he had evidence, which was not broken dostiu, clearly shewing capacity. Here again plaintiff did not succeed. On the question of indepen- dent advice, be found tbat Mr Harris bad Beted as solioitor for Mrs Rees, and that bis advice to ber had been jaat what would have been expected, namely, a serious caution as to the nature of the transaction. Oo the last allegation, namely, that it was not the free and voluntary act of the deceased, be accepted without reserve the evidence of M, Harris. The question of influence upon the mind of deceased bad been considered at length. Undoubtedly the deceased bad been influenced by the close proximity of defendant. The fact tbat they lived together made it obvious. Bat who could define the limits of unconscious influence of one mind upon another. All persons, great or small, were either consciously or anconsoioDfily influenced by the deeds and words of those people who went to iankt> up their environment, but be bad no evidence to Sbow to him that influence which could be described as nndue was exercised. On the >contrary, he was flatisfied that Mr Harris found the old lady alati- iu the hoes b remsinsd with her a considerable period, and tbat wbilst she was instructing him no influence bad been used to induce bar to give those instructions. He mubt consequently enter a verdict for defendant. Before cou- cloding he would like to say that, whilst it was not his desire to criticise the conduct of the case by counsel for the plaintiff, hp wished to take the opportunity of stating tbat he wan quite satisfied that throughout the whole trantaction Mr Harris bad not done anything which reflected npon him as a member of tba legal profession.

Windsor Magazine. Amongst the contents of the excellent August number of the "Windsor Magazine" are several good articles on the War freely illustrated from recent photographs. Under the title of Last Moments in Invaded Territory when War Comes," the well-known writer, Mr William G. Shepherd, records a number of personal experiences which have a distinct value of their own, both historical and psychological. Another article gives an interesting account of the origin and history of the various medals and decorations for heroic deeds in the War. How the Casualties are Recorded surveys a subject of which the details have a poignant interest for us all at the present time, and the methods by which this work of great responsibility is accomplished are illustrated with numerous photographs. The fine art feature of the number consists of a further group in the Windsor's series of repro- ductions from pictures illustrating the seasons of the year Summer, of course, being the theme of the present selection. The fiction includes most entertaining stories by Halliwell Sutcliffe, Edgar Wallace, Harold Bindloss, J. E. Buckrose, J. F. Dwyer { and F. M. White. j I

HAY GUARDIANS. Thursday.—Present: Mr John Davies, Boat Side (in the chair), the Rev G TA(-igh Spencer, the Hon Mabel Bailey, Messrs J W Jones, Enoch George, F J Stokoe, John Jones, D F Powell, R T Breese, D Wall, J Gittoes, A Bishop, Dd. Price, J R Griffith, E D Weaver, Alfred Challoner, David P Hopkins, Chas Butcher, H Yorath, with the clerk (Mr R T Griffiths) and other officials. k The Clerk read a letter from the Brecon Guardians, stating that they had considered the question of joining the South Wales and Monmouthshire Vagrancy Board, but that no circumstances had arisen to influence their previous decision not to join the Board and they adhered to their previous decision. The Builth Guardians wrote that they agreed to the principle of closing the casual wards and joining the scheme subject to satisfactory arraugeuieuts wiiiu cm oAiotiuf; vagrancy committee, or to the Unions of B. econ and Radnor forcing a new committee. They also suggested the holding of a confer- ence at Builth to consider the matter. Mr J W Jones could not see that they were doing anything wrong by appointing delegates to attend the conference, as the vAgrant were a nuisauce to the district. They should make some representation to the Local Government Board to get these men removed from the roads. The Chairman pointed out that in view of their previous resolution not to join the scheme the matter was out of order. The matter then dropped.

PAINSCASTLE RURAL COUNCIL. A meeting of the Paioscastle Rural Dis- trict Council was held at Hay on Thursday, Mr J Davies presiding. Others present werw Messrs A Cballoner, T Price, J Gittoes, A Bishop, with the clerk (Mr R T Griffiths) and other officials. xlio Clerk lead a communication from the Local Government Board asking what pro- vision the Council contemplated making after the war in respect of housing. The Clerk added that they did not intend doing any- thing and the letter did not affect them. A number of circulars were also read from the Food Controller with reference to various questions of fcod production and note was taken of them. The Clerk stated that he had written to the Roads Board with reference to the damage crused to local roads by timber hauiing, and the reply was that they would be prepared to consider reasonable claims for damage done to roads by hauling of timber Z5 by that department. The Clerk added that there was no haul- ing of timber by the Government depart- ment all the timber hauled on their roads was private. Therefore they could not send in a claim. NEW COUNCILLOR APPOINTED. Mr H Price, Llanbachowey, was unani- mously appointed councillor to represent the parish of JLlanbedr, Painscastle, in the place of Mr Thomas Davies, disqualified through non-attendance.

POULTRY KEEPING. I 4 PROFITABLE HOBBY. BY "UTILITY." EGG-LAYING TRIALS. More egg-laying trials are to be carried oni at Newport, Salop, and this time the Harper Adams College has wisely, though boldly, asked all the leading breeders of utility poul- try in this country for suggestions in order to make the trials as representative of the inter- ests of the poultry industry as it is possible. Such points as the weight and grade of eggs laid, the replacement of dead •- or disabled birds during the trials, prevention of out- breaks of disease, &c., are all matters affect- ing the success of these egg-laying tests. The College propose to record the weight of each egg laid, and this marks another step forward. Apart from the interest which would naturally be aroused in having the actual weight of eafclr bird's output, it should have a scientific -value, and furnish some useful data. In the past eggs have merely been graded into two or more divisions, and the layer of extra large eggs has simply ranked with those birds laying medium-sized eggs, and got no credit -1 for her better produce. Of course, the re- cording of the weight of each egg entails a large amount of detail work, but the time has come to push forward in the direction of ascertaining the actual return in weight of eggs for weight of food. There will be small house trials for 100 pens of 6 pullets each, and large house trials in which accommodation for 64 pens of 6 pullets each (and reserve bird) will be provided. These birds will be housed in eight sections, 56 birds in each, and not in one large flock, so as to safeguard the birds from any possible fear of infection. The object of the trials will be the testing of the capabilities of the pens for the production of: fa) the greatest market Yalue of eggs. and (b) the greatest number of e^gs. .o A. PROMISING WYANDOTTE. No one who has had experience of them will deny that the utility qualities of the Wyan- dotte varieties are unsurpassed; and while until the past few years the variety known as the Columbian has been chiefly a fancy breed, it is steadily making progress amongst non- fanciers, and promises soon to be almost M popular as many of the older varieties. Many breeders have called attention to its laying qualities. The egg is nicely tinted, and from wall-bred specimens tends to be of extra COLUMBIAN WYANDOTTE PULLET. large size. Few table varieties make more rapid growth than the Columbian, and, like all Wyandottes, it is an excellent table bird, though its yellow legs and skin turn some people against it. In. the Columbian cock the neck hackle should be white, with a distinct black stripe down the centre of each feather, but without black outer edging or ticking. In the hen the neck hackle should be black, having a silver white margin. The tail should be black, and the coverts may or may not be laced with, white. The white saddle hackle is preferred. The remainder of the plumage should be as white as possible. POULTRY HEADS. Whether all our breeds and varieties of fowls, from Brahma to Sebright bantam in size, and from Malay to Polish in type, origi- nated from a single bird, the Jungle Fowl, is a question which scientists have not been able to decide. The future may or may not prove it so; if it does it will provide us with the most remarkable instance in all ^nature of the wide variations of a single type. In no part of the body is this variation more pronounced than in the head. In regard to combs, we see such extremes as the small Wyandotte rose comb and the huge comb of the Redcap, or the small single comb of the Orpington and the huge one of the Leghorn cock. Even between the sexes there may be marked difference in appearance, as in the Leghorn and Minorca hen's falling comb and the cock's upright comb. In some of the Continental breeds we find other great variations, as, for example, in the leaf-comb of the Houdan or the hornlike comb of another French breed called La Fleche. The formation of the crest is another extraordinary variation which probably had its origin in fowls as well as in the crested duck as a malformation. In the lobes and in the wattles other differ- ences occur which are most marked in the Black .Spanish, in which the white face and lobes have been enormously developed, and in the Silkie with its turquoise lobes. The head itself shows its extreme variation in the long, Hat. snaky head of the Malay, and the beak in the game bantams. ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. ,Yo T. "-ACORXS FOR FOOD.—Acorns and l;o1'c chestnuts can both be used as foods for poultry. But as they have a fattening effect on the birds, and also because these fruits contain a laige amount of tannin and sl4iiitar substances, they should only be given in modei iiLu ui. Cattle and pigs have been known to die through eating these fruits. Widi poultry, therefore, they should be re- garded as a subsidiary article of diet, and never be given by themselves, but be ground into a iheal for use with other foods.' W. B. D. "-SHOULD POULTRY BE KEPT Now?—If you have to buy all the food con- sumed by the birds, it is certainly a question whether it pays you to keep ilieiii. unless they are of an exceptionally good strain and extremely well-managed. But where the gar- den provides a good surplus cf. food, which can he supplemented by a certain amount of in- evitable kitchen waste, poultry-keeping still pays. Produce. "-LATE HATCHED CHICKENS.— If the chickens are hatched at once. and car- ried through the winter without a check, they should start laving in the spring. But it is, of course, difficult to prevent that check, as it is

tar from being a simple matter to keep the growing chickens always warm and dry, and yet give them sufficient fresh air and exer- cise to stimulate the steady growth hich is necessary to produce good layers. For this purpose Leghorns or Minoreas would be best. "F. N. "-HOUSING DUCKS.—It is a fatal mistake to allow the birds to sleep in damp houses..A duck house need only be 4ft. 6in. high in front, as ducks sleep on the ground, and do not perch like fowls, but it must be made of thick boarding, and draught and rainproof. An earthen floor rammed very hard is the best for ducks—wood absorbs a part of the manure and soon (-, damp. "E. H.
