Municipalities Act, 1916 was held broad enough to support a bye-law prohibiting egg sales within municipal limits, because the specific matters listed in Section 298(2) were treated as illustrative and not exhaustive. The omission of eggs from the express list did not defeat competence, provided the bye-law was not inconsistent with the Act or rules.
