Township officials no matter how diligent or efficient cannot be in all sections of the township at once and several cas- es have been cited where chickens have been stolen in one district when the cpnstables were concentrating their efforts in another. Last week roost raiders visited the farms of Edward Willis and James Oliver at Vandorf and made away with about $200 worth \of fowl. The same week 150 hens Were taken from Wm. Heise and 50 from Mrs. Ambrose Nichols, Victoria Square. The farm of Arthur Roys- ton, Thornhill was Visited last .week and a number of good birds stolen. Farmers, poult men and citizens generally througho 1; York County are alarmeé at the prevalence of chicken thieving and recent stiff sentences handed out to offenders who have been caught seem to have failed to put a stop to this despicable practice. It is estimated that thousands of dol- lors worth of chickens have been stol- en in this county duying the past .cou- York County Farmers In Arms Against Chigken Thief The legislature of New Brunswick has passed a bill permitting the sale of liquor under government control, as in Quebec and Ontario. Only two Canadian provinces Nova Scotia. a Prince Edward Island are now und prohibitory laws. The exemptions of diamond jubilee caebrations from amusement tax is a concession which the provincial trea- sury department was wise to make. It would hardly seem fair to urge municipalities to celebrate the dia- nd Jubilee and then tax them for the privilege of doing so.

Vanddrf These are only a few examples of the ravages of the chicken thieves who have been Working in this district but it is sufficient to show that the prac- tice has reached the stage where it is a real and threatening menace to the community. The only appanent remedy is ever- lasting vigilance on the part of the authorities with a possible increase in the number police employed for a period until he epidemic subsides. Once, caught the offenders should be shown no leniency as’the safety of the Rublic property is at stake and an ex- ample should be made of every chi- cken thief caught which would make ;the whole business look less attrac- itive to phospective operatpi-s.‘ - n Constables Rowntree and Ireland of Vaughan Township and Constable Walker of King Township were re- warded for an all night vigil last Saturday when they caught two Wood- bridge men with a load of 31 hens. The officers. were watching the roads in the early hours of the morning and when accuseds car approached they blocked the road and held the men up ,at the point of the revolver. When ‘they were brought before Magistrate Brunton and a remand of a week was asked.
