ADULTERATION AND COMPETITION.
Mr. Long has brought in his Sale of Food and Drugs Bill; and the worst that such a professional opponent of useful legislation as Mr. Lough could find to say against it is that it is “ a Bill to protect the agricultural interest.” Of course it is, and we should have thought it was impossible to draft a measure dealing with adulteration which would not, in some respect, be a Bill to protect agriculture.

EAST PARADE CHAPEL ESTATE, LEEDS.
This important Freehold Property offers singular facilities for professional and commercial purposes, as the present building is capable of conversion into a business emporium, but disregarding it, the site presents an almost unrivalled opportunity for the erection of a magnificent building suitable for insurance and professional offices. The frontage to East Parade is 83ft., to Greek-street 133ft., ana to Russell-street 134ft.
The Enclosed Area is about 1,265 square yards. East Parade is the main avenue from the railway stations to the Town Hall (in which are the Assize Courts), the Municipal Building?, the Poor Law and School Board Offices, the Fine Art Gallery, and Free Library.
It is close to all the chief banking establishments, near to the Royal Exchange, and in the midst of the professional business of the city.
Any insurance or other company seeking a site in a commanding position of increasing value cannot find one offering so many advantages as this property, at the price which the vendors are willing to accept; consequently this sale is one of special interest, and one which ought to command unusual attention.
The widening of Infirmary-street, which leads direct from City Square to the Town Hall, will greatly enhance the value of this property; ajid other improvements likely to occur in the vicinity v׳ill largely increase the demand for office accommodation, for which this site is extraordinarily suitable.
־|\/r ESSES. HEPPER and SORS are instructed 1YJL by the Trustees to Sell by Auction, in their Estate Sale Rooms, East Parade, at Four p.m. precisely, on Tuesday, March 21, subject to conditions, the above highly important FREEHOLD PROPERTY.
Plans, particulars and conditions of sale are being prepared, and may be had 14 days before the sale of the Auctioneers; or of Messrs. Scatcherd, Hopkins and Middlebrooks, solicitors, Prudential-buildings, Park-row, Leeds, and Morley.
