And whereas, the duty imposed upon swine is a specific duty on each animal at so much per head, without reference to weight or size, and that it is necessary in order to facilitate the balancing of the accounts of what goes into the warehouse, and what comes out in another form for exportation, that a ratio should be established between the weight of the live animal warehoused and the equivalent weight of the merchantable products of such animal after he has been slaughtered, — it is considered that the average weight of a live hog may be taken at 200 lbs., and that the equivalent of such live hog in Pork, Bacon, Hams, and Lard is 1 1 3 lbs., that every 1 13 lbs. weight of Pork, Bacon, Hams or Lard taken out of the warehouse shall bo deemed to represent one live hog put into the ware- house, and the exportation of that quantity of Pork, Bacon, Hams or Lard will be equivalent to the exportation of one of the live hogs bonded, and if the same, instead of being exported should go into consumption in this Dominion, it shall ' be charged with a duty of $2 as bjing the merchantable mauufectured equivalent of the live animal chargeable with that duty on importation. 4.

Coupons of Debentures of the Dominion will be paid either at Ottawa or by any of the Assistant Receivers General in the several Provinces of the Dominion. As the coupons must be verified where the Debentures Books are kept, be- fore payment, coupons of the late Province of Canada or of the Dominion, if re- quired to b) paid elsewhere than at Ottawa, must be presented to the Assistant Receiver General where they are to be paid, who will give a receipt for them in a form furnished to him, and transmit them to Ottawa for verification, from whence he will receive authority to pay them. As a few days must thus elapse between the presentation of a coupon and its payment, they may be presented if desired before they are due, and upon baing verified they will be paid by the As- sistant Receiver General when due. As the books of the old Debentures of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick are kept at Halifax and St. John, no delay is necessary for verification in those cases. If any holder of a Debenture payable in Canada wishes to convert it into Do- minion Stock, 6 per cent Debentures may be so converted into 6 per cent Stock, and 5 per cent Debentures into 5 per cent Stock, at par. In this case the Debenture must also be sent to Ottawa for verjlfication whereupon certificate of Stock will be issued. T. D, HARINGTON, Deputy Receiver General. JOHN LANGTON, Auditor.

The loading of Lumber will be limited to the quantities per car, herein- after stated. Pine, Hemlock, and Spruce will be reckoned as soft, and all other kinds as hard. Owners overloadiug will be charged double rates in every in- stance. The quantities mentioned as being the load for one car, will not be con- sidered as applicable to lumber, which, by- reason of its length, requires for its conveyance two or more cars. Scantling, sawn or hewn, and ship or deck Plank, or other long Lumber, must not be piled higher than the tariff quantity of the same description of goods would reach, if upon one car. Owners to produce sur- vey bill when required by the Station Master, or other duly authorized agent ; and in case of dispute as to the quantities, the Lumber may be re-surveyed at the expense of the party proved to bo in error. 31.

In the event of the owner neglecting or refusing to obey the directions of the Station Master, or other person authorized by the Superintendent in rela- tion thereto, the road will be reduced, if necessary, to bring it within the quanti- ty prescribed for a car load, and afterwards so secured as to make it entirely safe for transportation. The expense of doing this being charged against the goods. 32. When Lumber is put upon one car, care must be taken to have a stake placed II r m 330 ORDERS IN COUNCIL. l\ « : I!

Long Lumber extending over two or more cars must be bound by chains or large ropes. It must not be " bound " by the stakes, but loaded on '' bunks," tnat it may " play" or " swivel" freely. 34. Lumber will be carried only at the convenience of the Railway, and at the risk of the ownei-. 35. Cars laden with Lumber will not be allowed to stand over to give owners or consignees choice of positions at the receiving Stations when other berths are unoccupied, 36. In loading Cordwood, sticks must be placed at the edges of the car for the outer ends of the wood to rest upon, that it may tend, when piled, towards the centre. The stakes used must be green Spruce or straight hardwood of sufficient thickness. 37. Stations being often obstructed by deposits of Lumber of various kinds, and the ordinary business of the station being thereby incommoded ; in such cases the obstructions will be removed, and the cost of such removal, in addition to yardage, at the rate of One Dollar per car load per day, will form a charge against the Lumber. Notice will be given to the owner or consignee, that its ra- moval is required before a certain time, and the charges will commence immedia- tely on the exi)iration of such time. When the charges have accumulated so as to amount to half the value of the Lumber, it will be sold at Public Auction, af- ter giving ten days public notice of such sale. 38. Lumber and other Goods will be received only at Sidings ; unless by pre- vious arrangement it is shewn to the satisfaction of the Superintendent, that suffi- cient for a full train load of ten cars will be so placed that it can readily be laden with the assistance of an engine. A charge of $2.50 per hour will be made in addition when the engine is detained more than three hours, to the rate per car, 39. To avoid errors in Way Billing loaded caii at Outsidings, Owners should fasten a ticket upon the side of the car, stating to whom the load belongs, and to whom and where it is to be consigned. 40. When Goods are required to be loaded by the Own(!r or his Agent, or at his expense, all fittings (such as Stakes, Bunks, Skids, Chains, Ropes, &c., for Lumber and Sideboards, for Coals, Sand, Bricks, Clay, Stone, Manganese, Grain, or or al himi nec£ the his charl muri after tofil ORDERS IN COUNCIL. 331 ) prevent its small round lus produce one third of y cannot be d by chains n "bunks," way, and at ;ive owners • berths are car for the ;owards the )f suiliciont ous kinds, d ; in such in addition a chargH that its rs- immedia- ated so as uctioR, af- ss by pre- that suffl- ( be laden L' made in e per car. rs should s, and to ent, or at 3, &c., for ie, Grain, or Railways. or articles of a similar character), must be provided by him, or will be charged to him if furnished by the Railway.

Miscelktneous. All assignments aul transfers of pre-emption rights prior to the issuing of the patent are null and void. Before any person shall be allowed to be entered for lands and obtain the right of pre emplion in respect thereof, he shall make oath before the Land Of- ficer of the Division in which the land lies that he has never had the befiefit of any right of pre-emption under these regulations — that he has not settled on and improved the lands with a view to selling them on speculation, but in good faith for his own use and benefit. * The person who receives the oath shall file a certificate thereof in the Land Office for the Division, which shall be evidence that such oath was duly admi- nistered. In case a person entitled to claim pre-emption rights, dies before giving effect to his claim, the representatives of the deceased person may com- plete the same. But the entry in such case shall be made in favor of " the Heirs" of the deceased person, and the patent shall issue, and the title shall enure to the heirs as if their names had been specially mentioned. ' Homestead Rights. \. Any person who is the head of a family, or has attained the age of twenty- one years, shall after the first day of May, 1871, be entitled to be entered for one quarter section, or a less quantity of unappropriated public lands, for the purpose of securing a homestead right in respect thereof. Each officer and man who is or has been in the first or Ontario, or in the se- cond or Quebec Battalion of Rifles, now stationed in Manitoba (whether in the ser- vice or depot companies, and who has not been dismissed therefrom), shall be en- titled to a free grant, without actual residence, of one quarter section. No other person shall be entitled to more than one homestead right. Persons owning and occupying lands may be entered for other land lying contiguous to their lands, but the whole extent of land, including that previously owned and occupied, must not exceed 160 acres. A person applying for leave to be entered for lands with a view of securing a homestead right th-rein, shall make affidavit that he is over 21 years of age, that he is a Btilish subject by biith or naturalization, and that the application is made for his exclusive use and benefit, and that the entry is made for the purpose of actual settlement. Upon making this affidavit, and filing it with the land officer, and on pay- ment to him of $10 (for which he shall receive a receipt from the officer), he shall bo permitted to enter the land specified in the application. In entries of contiguous lands, the settler must describe in his affidavit the tract he owns and is sett.ed upon as his original farm. Actual residence on the contiguous.

No patent shall be granted for the land until the expiration of three year?, from the lime of entering into possession of it. At the expiration of three years, or within two years thereafter, the settler or his widow, her heirs or devisees, upon proof, to the satisfaction of the land ofBcer that he or they have resided upon or cultivated the land for the three years next after the filing of the affidavit for entry, and upon his or their affidavit that no part of the land has been alienated, the settler, or his representatives, shall be en- titled to a patent for the land.

The purchaser, in such case, shall acquire the adsolute'title by the purchase ' and be entitled to obtain a patent for the land from the Crown upon payment of the office fees, etc. The title to lands to be acquired"under the above provisions, remains in the Crown until the issue of the patent therefor, and such lands are not therefore liable to be taken in execution before the issue of the patent. In case it is'proved to the satisfaction of the land officer that the settler has abandoned the land entered by him, for more than, six months at any time, then the land shall revert to the Crown. Any person who has availed himself of the foregoing provisions may at any time, before the expiration of the ihree years, obtain a patent for the land entered upon by him on'paying the pre-emplion price thereof, and making proof of settle, ment and cultivation from the date of entry to the lime of payment. Proof of aclual'settlement and cultivation is made by the affidavit of the claimant, made before the proper^Land Officer, corroborated by the testimony of two credible witnesses. All assignments'and transfers of^homestoad rights prior to the issuing of the patent are null and void, but^will be deemed prima facie evidence of abandonment and give cause for the cancellation of the claim. A settler relinquishing or^ abandoning |_hi8 claim cannot thereafter make a second entry. i ■ A person;;who has'seltled on a tractj^^and filed his application for pre-emption right may at any^time substitute therefor an application for a homestead right. 29 III I ^^ "5 ii 450 ORDERS IN COUNCIL.

To all whom it may concern : Be it known that I, William Woodworth, of the Town of Poughkeepsie, in the County of Dutchess, and State of New York, gentleman, have invented. Certain new and useful improvements on planing machines, and 1 do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same : The first part of my invention relates to the combination of rotary cutters and feeding- rollers, in such a manner that the said feeding-rollers shall be capable of feeding iho lumber to the cutters, and also of elfectually resisting the tendency of Ihe cutters to draw the lumber upward toward them ; the object of this part of my invention being to reduce the lumber operated upon to an uniformity of ihick- n SB, and to give it a p'aued and even surface upon one side thereof. ORDERS IN COUNCIJ.. 489 Miscellanei/us. The second part of my invention relates to the combination, with feeding rol- lers and rotary cutters, for planing one of the principal surfaces of the lumber, of rotary machine cutlers so as to form a tongue or grove, or both, upon the edge or edges of the lumber, at the same time that one of its principal surfaces is planed. Figure 1 is a side elevation of a machine embodying my invention. Figure 2 is a plan of the same. Figure 3 is an elevation showing that end of the machine which is at the Bight hand in Figure 1. Figure 4 is a vertical transverse section, showing those parts of the machine which are at the right hand of the line xx drawn across Figures 1 and 2. A is the frame of the machine, which frame should be substantially con- structed to resist the vibrations of the operating parts. B is the driving-pulley, which is hung on the main shaft C of the machine, from which latter, motion is communicated to the operating parts. D is the shaft of the rotary cutters by which the lumber is planed. This shaft is made flat upon two of its sides, bet- ween its bearings, for the reception of the cutters EE, which are firmly secured to it by bolts a a, the holes through these cutters for the reception of these bolts being elongated in the direction of the width of the cutters to allow the necessary adjustment of the cutters. The shaft D is hung in adjustable bearings, by which it may be elevated and depressed to regul{»te the thickness of the planed lumber. F is a puUy on the shaft D, which receives motion by belt G, from the band-wheel H. on the driving shaft. 1 1 andJ J are the feeding-rollers, each pair of which is connected by finger pinions b 6, and the upper roller of each pair is hung in spring bearings which allow it to yield slightly upward to pressure, to adapt it to any differences or inequalities in the thickness of the lumber. The lower roller of each pair is provided with a worm wheel c, which meshos into a worm or endless screw d on the shaft /c, which is propelled by a bevel wheel / on the main shaft, working into the bevel wheel f on the shank k. L and M are cutters hung upon vertical shafts N and 0. one set of these cut- ters being adapted to form a groove, and the other to form a tongue upon the edge of the board to be operated upon. These cutters are attached to the shafts in the manner already described with relation to the cutters E E. The shafts N and are provided with pulleys g*g^ and rotation is commu- nicated to them by belts h h, from pulleys i t, on the main shaft ; rotation being given in the direction of the arrow to the driving pulley. 464 0RDER8 IN COUNCIL. Miscellaneous. The lumber to be planed is introduced from the end of the machine, which is shown at the right hand in figures I and 2, and being grasped by the rollers 1 1, is by them drawn forward to the cutters E E, which being rapidity revolved to- wards the advancing lumber, plane it to the proper thickness ; and as the lumber continues to advance, it is grasped by the rollers J J, which aid in the feeding motion and discharge the board, after it has passed the cutters. The upper rol- lers I and J, being hung in spring bearings, always exert a pressure on the top of the board, and thus prevent its being raised up by the action of the cutters E E. "When the lumber is designed for floors or ceilings, or other purpose for which it is requii'ed to be matched, a tongue is formed upon one edge of it and a groove on the other by the cutters L and M, which both revolve toward the advAucing board ; and these operations are permormed at the same time that the upper sur- face of the board is planed, the whole being done at a single operation. When the lumber is required to be matched, it should be first reduced to a uniform width, and guided in its introduction into the machine by a gauge P attached to the bed Q of the machine. When the lumber is not to be matched, this gauge and the cutters L and M should be taken off and dispensed with. I makfi no claim to the mode in which the cutters are secured upon their shaft, nor to be adjustable bearings which permit of the elevation or depression of the shaft, for I am aware that these are not new ; but I claim as my inven- tion— # 1. The combination of the cutters E E and the feeding rollers 1 L and J J, subst^niUUy as and for tbe purpose hereinbefore set forth. 2. The combination with the cutters E E and the feeding rollers 1 1 and J J, of the cutters L and M, substantially as and for the purpose hereinbefore set forth. P ^ WILLIAM WOOD WORTH.

' 1*0 all wiiom it may concern*: Be it known that we, Marion Ellsworth, of Chicago, County of Cook, and State of Illinois, gentleman, and Joseph Richard Shaw, of Indianapolis. County of. Marion, and State of Indiana, gentleman, have jomtly invented A new and useful improvement on the art or process of separating smut and Other impurities from wheat, and we do hereby de^Jare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same : Take of lime, newly slacked, and while yet warm, one and a half pounds to each one hundred pounds of wheat. Mix the lime well with the wheat, let it stand one hour, th-en pass it through a smut-mill in the usual way, and it will be found that all the lime, smut, dirt, and other impurities attached to the wheat, of every kind, and which no smut-mill, without our liming process, will fully separate, will be entirely removed, and the flour will be as white and as sweet as though made. from the best of wheat. We are aware that lime has before been used for the purpose of cleaning wheat, being first mixed with the grain as above proposed and the whole being then passed through a smut-mill ; but in all previous processes, so far as we are aware, the lime has been used in a cold state ; and for this reason such processes proved ineffectual. We propose to take lime newly slacked and while yet warm. m We claim'as our invention the process of cleaning wheat by mixing with it lime newly slacked and warm before passing it through a smut-mill, so as to cleanse the wheat from all impurities, substantially as described.

Be it known that I, Ebenezer Whitney, of the City of Charleston, in the Dis- trict of Charleston, and State of South Carolina, gentleman, am the administrator of the estate of Benjamin Browning, in his life time of the said city, gentleman, and that the said Benjamin Browning did invent a certain new and useful com* position of matter to be used in the manufacture of wool, and I do nereby declare that the following is a fi M, clear, and exact description of the same : II i; ! ii 486 ORDERS IN COUNCIL. Miscellaneous. The nature of the invention of the said Benjamin Browning consists in mix- ing olive, lard, or rape seed oil with a solution of oil of soap dissolved in hot water. To prepare tlie wool oil, take a quantity of oil soap of any kind, provided the quality be good, and dissolve the same in hot water, say about thirty pounds of oil soap to thirty gallons of water, or a sufficient quantity of soap to saturate the water. Then take equal parts, by measure, of olive, lard, rape-seed, or any other kind of oil which can be used on wool in the process of its manufacture, and mix it with the preparation aforesaid, to wit, the soap solution, which, after such mixture, is ready to be used on wool with as beneficial an effect as if pure oil only had been used. This wool oil will not decompose by age, because the oil of soap neutralizes the stearine in the oil ; hence there is nothing to decompose. And for the same reason spontaneous combustion cannot be produced. I claim as the invention of the said Benjamin Browning, a compound com- posed of any of the oils ordinarily used on wool in its manufacture, and a solution of oil soap, subslamially in the proportions and for the purposes set forth.

Where several sheets and figures are furnished, in accordance with Rule 13, any one figure, which will best give a general idea of the invention, will be su fiicient. ORDERS IN COUNCIL. 491 Mitcellaneout. h'AVi The bard board to be used must have a smooth or calendered surface — a sheet of " double thick Bristol board," or '•'■ Whatman's drawing paper," is recommended. All drawings must be clear,'8harp, well defined, not too fine, and perfectly black. Lines that are pale, ashy, very fine, ragged, or rotlen, give bad results when photo-lithographed. Brush-shading, tinting, and imitation ourface-graining, should never be used ; and in fine shading the result should be attained with as few lines as possible. Section lines also should be as open in their spacing as the case will admit of, and these, as well as all right lines, in order to insure clearness, should be made with a ruling pen. The shading of convex and concave surfaces may be dispensed with when the invention is otherwise well illustrated. Shade lines may sometimes be used with good effect, but heavy shadows, where they would obscure lines or letters of reference, should be avoided. The card board drawing should be rolled on a roller, for transmission to the 9ffice, as folding will prevent its usefulness for photo-lithography. 2. Specifications.
