There has been a lot f talk about net sale ertifieates. and - . we hink poultry - keepers riU agree that the . utarswood net gale certificate is one of which we may be pardoned for feeling a little proud. It shows a sale of nearly two and three-ouarter ; million .packets of Karswood m the hut twelevo months. We beliere this to be a ; world's reoord. Oar deepest gratitude is dne to poultry-keepers who have enabled us . to ■l.: achieve these results, and yon can accept ; ' onr assurance that . the Karswood policy ot High Quality and Fair Price will be main- ; tabled during 1323. ; It is this policy of tiding always to be fair to our customers which has made the Karswood business what it is to-day— the largest of its kind In the world. To serve you well and faithfully is over , whole end and aim. And it is very pleas:Jng to us to receive letters like that from ,'Mr.' Hodges, printed below showing that . during the worst months of last winter his j! birds have averaged five eggs per bird per t-week steadily, an egg average which, even m these days, most be regarded as un- > usually good. If your birds, friendly reader, do not do ;as well as this, you are safe m giving ; Karswood a trial — they are honest foods • sold at a fair price. Read what users say : \ 5 Eggs per Bird per Week Throughout Winter. 13 Bulstrode Rd., Hounslow. ; : I -feel it my duty, to write and tender (you an expression of my appreciation of your Karswood. and testify to the wonderful egg-producing merits of same. I have ■ttever had such good results 'as I have" had since I started usins Karswood. and during .the worst months . of this winter my birds . 'have averaged five eggs per bird per week, and this, I might, add, on ' Karswood fed dry. I would sincerely recommend those ' jvrho have not tried .Karswood to save it a trial, and I am confident that their success 1 fwdH be as hearty ' as mine.

One day a week I get only six or eight eggs. In another pen I have seven Leghorns, mostly bred by myself, and I get five or six eggs every day. You understand that all these birds have been fed from birth on Karswood lines. My R.I.R. and white Wyandottcs all. lay" well also, but -, much smaller eggs.

i.iuiriage and Divorce. Q.: Married m Scotland 1900 and migrated to Australia m 1912. In 1915 wife and child went Home for trip with husband's consent. Husband's whereabouts now unknown, and no support or maintenance since 1915. Would marriage m New Zealand b« bigamous? — "Wife" (Parnell). A.: If you have not heard of your husband for seven years you would not be guilty of bigamy, but it la advisable to take divorce proceedings on the ground of desertion and hay* th« marriage annulled. Q.: If married woman who has £100 m P.O. Savings Bank dies without a will can her husband secure same with little or t no expense? — "Jack." A.: Husband would need to take out letters of administration, Q.: A young couple after being married two years flnd that they were married m the name of the man's stepfather. Is the marriage legal, or is another marriage m man's proper name necessary? — "Much Worried" (P.N\) A.: The marriage is quite legal and second marriage is not necessary, even if possible. Q.: Wife leaves husband two years and four months ago on account of cruelty, and a separation order was made with maintenance for child. Prior to leaving husband lived with him unmarried for seven years. Is there any ground for divorce, or is it necessary to wait for period of three years' separation? What would divorce cost? — "Fruitlands" (Central Otago). A.: You must wait until the three years elapse. The cost will be from 30 guineas, plus disbursements. Q.: Boarder left lodgings owing board. Can boardinghouse proprietor advertise that if coat left behind is not claimed within 14 days same will be sold to pay expenses? — "Serious" A.: The course suggested is not legal, and the purchaser would not obtain a good' title to the coat, although most likely no claim would ever be made by the boarder. The correct, but expensive, course would be to recover Judgment for the board (personal service being dispensed with) and then to get the Court bailiff to sell the coat. Wills and Property: Q.: Land taken by Public Works Department from holder of LJ.P. license. Crown offers" £5 m settlement as. compensation. Occupier claims £ 25.— "S£.M»C." ( Waikato) . A.: You are not obliged to accept the offer of £5 for compensation. The Public Works Act proldes that disputed claims shall be decided by a Compensation Court. You will need to consult a solicitor if you decide to hold out for the £25, which you appear to be quite entitled to do. Q.: Testator dies having made a deathbed will m favor of sister who attended him during his last illness. Previously had made will m favor of illegitimate daughter, to whom he was greatly attached. Has Bald daughter any claim on his estate? — "May" (Dunedin). A.: No; her only chance Is to see If it is possible to upset the second will on the ground of- want of testamentary capacity or undue influence owing to illneos. Inquirer should send further particulars, as the case seems one of groat hardship. Q.: (1) Tenant builds shed for motor on land occupied by him. When tenant vacates premises can he remove shed? (2) Timber, driftwood stranded m midstream. Can this be taken possession of by stranger, or does it. become the property of adjoining owner of land? — "Constant Reader" (Norman by). A.: (1) The shed, if built on piles or otherwise attached to the freehold, is a fixturo t$ the soil and becomes the property of the landlord, and is therefore not removable by the tenant — unless possibly the motor were used for trade purposes. (2) The timber would, as driftwood, be no one's property, and so the person who first took possession would be the owner. The owners of the adjoining land, however, generally own right to the middle line of the river,' and so possession could not be taken without apparently trespassing on their property. L^gal: , Q.: Is thero any clause under the D.S.S. Act whereby an assisted discharged soldier can claim protection against an execution of a judgment? — "Duped" (Hastings). A.: The Soldiers' Protection Regulations, 1919, provide that an assisted discharged soldier is exempt from the execution of a judgment against hia property without the consent of the Attorney-General. This, however, does not prevent the issuing of a judgment summons against such soldier. Q.: Young lady of 19 years, out working In respectable place, earning own living, is keeping company with young man. Parents dislike her going with him. Can they or the police interfere? — "N.M." A.: Although nominally parents have custody of their children until 21, they are not obliged to keep them after the age of 16, and therefore if you or© maintaining yourself you are not subject to their control. They would be quite Justified, however, m aßklnff you to cease to keop company or to leave home-— if you ars staying there. Q.: Widowed mother Is leaving town. Can she compel her daughter, Aged 20, to leave her position and co with her? — "Henpecked" (Oamaru). A.: No; the daughter can go or stay — merely intimate that you do not dasire to accompan> your mother. Q.: What is procedure to change surname? Is it compulsory to adverj tlse change m daily papers? — "Doubtful" (Wellington). A.: The procedure is to exet-uto a deed poll changing name. This is verified by a declaration of the attesting witness or Hied m tho Supremo Court ofliee nearest placo of residence. Advertisement is advisable" m evidence of the change, but not indispensible. It is the must expeditious way of proclaiming Iho change. Q.: A buyft property for B In Bs name and receipt is given to A m A's name. There was a verbal understanding that B, as soon as convenient, is to pay A. In due course B offers A full amount payable and interest. A refuses to accept same. Can A sell the property or can B sell It? — "Sectarianism." A.: You omit to state whether title was taken. If title was registered against the property then the . person whoso name appeared thereon would prlma facie have tho disposition thereof, but even If A has found the money and taken the title In his own name B can, on payment of nil prlnf'lrm] nm> interest, compel a transfer to himself If he can show that Uio transaction wns really a mortpa^o from the beginning, i.e.. that the hunt was bought Jind the title taken m A'a name by way of security.

Haa employee claim for two weeks' wage* m lieu of notice, and is there a case for wrongful dismissal? — "Fair Play" CWfeikato). A.: You are entitled to two weeks' wages In Ueu of notice, but there was nothing wrongful about the dismissal., Finance, Companies, Etc: Q.: Are Tatt's prizes Bubject to any tax by the New Zealand Government? —"Men taT (Nelson). A.: No. All deductions are made In Australia. A Tatt's prize does not come within the definition of income for the purpose of income tax. Replies 1 m Brief: ■ "H.P.R." (Remuera) and others: We have been inundated with protests against the Bishop of Willochra's extraordinary, ill-founded attack on the morals of the community and against his half-hearted apology when his blunder caused by his having misread statistics was . revealed. We do not propose to give him any further limelight, even though it be the limelight of condemnation, than he has already received. However, we quote the concluding portion of your* letter: — '"He who calleth his brother a fool is m danger of hell fire.' I wonder what particular brand of danger awaits him who calls his sister a prostitute?" — "Deputy": Can find no trace of any workers* dwellings legislation m 1912, and imagine the, booklet you refer to must have reference to State advances to workers. The difference- Is that under the State Advances a loan on first mortgage is made to the worker, while under the Housing Act a house already built is sold or leased to the worker. If sold, the purchase price is payable m the form of rent. — "Shannon": Wellington and Athletic. — : "W-JXi.": No, not if you are a British subject. — "Mich. 0.C.": (1) Write any leading book firm; (2) address as advertised. — "Mother of Eight": As your husband is living m Suva and has his home there, that Is the country of his domicile, and therefore of your domicile. The New Zealand Courts would decline jurisdiction, and so you would have t6 take proceedings m Fiji according to the laws of that country. The cost would be anything from £50 upwards, according to the work. — "Wide Awake": You do not state the terms of your purchase. If you do not carry out your contract you are liable to forfeit your deposit moneys as damages. You had better carry out the original contract or arrange new terms.— "Farmer": The "Taumarunui Press" are the publishers of the book to which you refer. — "Snooker": Th« Ford Motor Company's Wellington, 124 ft; nine stories. — ''Quad": Stonehand on evening daily is not entitled to half -holidays; a Jobbing comp. is. — "F.0.A.": Refuse to go until order is made by the Court. — "S.J." (Waihi): Do nothing m the meantime; wait further developments.— "M.A.C.": Only first editions of these books are of much use to collectors, and as a volume of the book you mention, published m 1675 (25 years before yours) went for 11s at a sale m London you can draw your own deductions about the marketable value of yours. — "R.R." (Wellington), "Fair Play" (Hokitika) and others: It is only wasting time to forward anonymous letters. — "Euchre" (Auckland): Not necessarily, aa the opposing side has made it does not need any further advantage. — "Ngalo": He takes the jack pot. — "Will Hard" (Wellington) : Ho plays" the joker at his own discretion. — "Twenty-threo-bar" (Napier) : Messines, German attack, April 10,41, 12, 1917; ridge taken by Allies on September 29, 1917. — "Black Ants": To kill black ants, spray the area affected with a solution of borax and throw some cucumber skins down, on to which the ants will crawl and expire.
