’. Sir,—With ■ reference to 'th e letters about the] sale of the Cor­ poration., horseV Royal,” in my opinion the horse was disposed of m/the only wayjln which-it was safe to know that.it would not. suffer any ill-treatment at the hands of any. future owner. A horse that Mas been kept in


a warm stable and fed- out of a ■manger should riot be sold ;to;be turned out on to a rough pasture to feed itsdf arii sometimes be left out • all i^inter. This,' j ■helievei has occurred in the case

cricket match, with two, teams doing their utmost to break every rule In the crlck^etlng manual, was one of the features of a Whalley Cricket Club gala at , the Abbey Ground on Saturday. jThe fact that the players


were dressed In costumes v&guby reminiscent of the earW Georgian era- was no indication of the standard of Pjay, but seemed a perfect excuse for frequent libations ,of beer, an occasional free fight' rides round the .pitch by bicycle ind invalid chair, and a flagrant disregard' of each| and ’ every rule of

the annual “ At Home” at the Abbey yesterday w#k. About 150 visitors were


welcomed by the Bishop of Blackburn (Dr. W. M. Ask- wlth) and Mrs. Askwith, .and the ' Warden (Canon C- J. Stranks) and Mrs. Stranks.


A report on the working of


the Abbey was presented by Canon Stranks and the meet­ ing was addressed by the Bishop.

CHANGING METHODS Changing irtefhbds of farm­


ing have a very marked bear­ ing on others besides the corn­ crake, and during the past week I was talking to a farmer near Slaldburn on this subject. He had just finished cutting a meadow, and as the area un­ cut became reduced In size, the clattering blades caused many an untimely death. A family of partridge and several young pheasants repeatedly, came Into the open, only to


seek cover a'gain ln the long; grass. My friend spent much time In driving these young birds out.of the wayTif the' approaching blades, but In: spite of his thoughtfulness, ;a! few of them .were destroyed.!

Yet another point of


.number of years, cannot bfe. •the


fend view


was that the horsb sljould: have been sold to a local farmer. [ Wi t h all due' respects to the farming im ­ munity, no farmer can afford to exercise indefinite charity In respect i of a horse. Possibly It would have been useful In the hayfields. | but what . about th e : winter months ?


i | Although there Is ho work,


the horse .has still to be! fed' and provided with clean bedding. With the! prelsent


-high -.cost of 'hay this would be entirely uhecpnomlcal.j

: J ■If there are still some doubters


let the suave, but rather subtle Mr. Isaac himself disillusion them, for in agreeing that the election was'fought on -the cost of living,! he' tacitly admits that the economic paradise was r ;ally •dangled before the electorate, then he promptly exposes the double-dealing by saying that deflationary measures have been introduced which, 'though bitter as a medicine, must-be faced- This, stripped of the jargon,


means that the Government is applying! its hidden policy or 'un- derminirig, the Welfare State, which i t , always hated: anyway, and is restoring the old order of ■things with plutocracy on its
