The Department is responsible--for two opposite reasons, it is true, but somehow they seem to confirm each other.

We must labour to find some other common ground, starting from the recognition that the salmon fisheries are a national asset which must be made to subserve the general public interest.

I assure my friend that when all parties make their proper contribution in effort and in cash, the Department will not be backward in doing their part.
At the end of this interview a messenger brings a telegram for 'himself' from a stockowner in a remote district.[47] 'My pigs,' runs one of the most businesslike communications I ever received, 'are all spotted.
What shall I do ?' I send it to the Veterinary Branch, which, with the Board of Agriculture in England, is engaged in a scheme for staying the ravages of swine fever, a scheme into which the late Mr.Hanbury threw himself with his characteristic energy.

The problem is of immense importance, and the difficulty is not mainly quadrupedal.

Unless the police 'spot' the spotted pigs, we too often hear nothing about them.
