- )RTATION OF PUREBRED BULLS. Che Territorial Department of Agri- ture and the Canadian Pacific Rail- Company have recently completed ingements respecting the importa- of purebred bulls into the Terrifies at an uniform rate of 85 per head, as a result thereof the following emorandum has been issued by the spartmenl for the information of in ending importers. It is anticipated hat stockmen throughout the terri- Bories will avail themselves of the favor- Itble transportation privileges offered. Memorandum. I am directed to call your attention to Ithe importation of pure bred bulls, under Government auspices, which will be carried on under an arrangement with the Canadian Pacific Railway Co.. whereby the bulls (which must .be de- livered at some convenient point on said lilway in Manitoba or Ontario), are gathered and forwarded by carload lots to the West in charge of a reliable man and destributed at desired points upon the C.P.R. main line or branches in the Territories. The Government and Rail- way Company defray all expenses over and above the sum of 5 per head, which must be deposited by the applicant. As soon as parties are in a position to make application to the Department for the transportation of stock, blank forms WiU, upon notification, be supplied them which are to be filled out and returned to this Department, accompanied by the sum of 5. Stockmen availing themselves of this offer will have to make their own arrangements, through friends or other wise, regarding the purchase of their bulls. If, however, a person is selected by a sufficient number of applicants to purchase a full carload of bulls for them, he will be furnished free transportation to Manitoba or Ontario and return in charge of the car. His inci dental expenses, up to the time of taking charge of the stock in the East, must be defrayed by himself Or the parties he represents. If intending purchasers are unable to make either of the above arrangements, they will, upon application to the' Depailment, be placed in communication with the Live Stock Associations of Manitoba or Ontario, who will purchase for them what stock they require for a nominal commission. - It is not necessary for applicants for transportation of stock under this arrangement to make their purchases in the East prior to filing their applications with the Department. If anyone desires to obtain the reduced rate in question, he should file his application at once, and he can then purchase what stock he requires in the East at his con venience. As the shipment will not take place until May, there will be ample time to complete such arrange ments. As above indicated, only male stock can be accepted for transportation under the arrangement outlined, and no more than two head can be shipped to any one applicant at the 95 rate. The Department will, however, be able to arrange for the transportation of pure bred female stock in less than carload lots, on the understanding that applicants pay the full cost of transportation. All stock will be accepted for transportation at owner's risk only; but every precaution will be taken to ensure safe delivery. As .the number of bulls which it is intended to bring into the Territories during the coming spring under the foregoing scheme is at present limited, ap* plications'will be considered in this Department on a basis of priority. .
