The extent to which Americans make use of these bonds can not be
definitely stated. They are open, however, to Americans, and arc
made use of by them to a considerable extent. There are no distinctions
made between nationalities in regard to warehousing privileges
in Canada.
Wine and spirituous liquors may remain two years in bond, with
the privilege of an extension for three years more on payment of duty
mi any deficiency found at the end of the first two years. All other
floods are required to be taken out of warehouse within two years
from the date of entry for warehouse.

railway) and warehouse depend on the locality and the situation of
fhe warehouse.

who keeps a record of packages received and delivered, and sees
that the building is closed and secured with customs locks in his
absence.
