A fence of any ol the kinds mentionid in the Second Schedule is a siiflicicnL fence within the meaning of the Fencing Act (5.7). The occupiers of adjoining lauds uot divided by a suifkiient twice are liable to join in or contribute in equal proportions to the erection ol a leuce between such lands, although such fence may not extend along the whole boundary line. But no occupier is liable to contribute to any fence which is not, as far as piaoticable, continuous tinongiiout its length. Till:; RULES OF THE IIOAD. flic Rule of the Road is a paradox quite; For in driving your carriage along, II you bear U> the left you are sure to go right, ll you lulu to the light you go wrong. But in walking the streets 'tis a different ciise; To the right it is right wou should steer, On the left should be left enough of clear space For the people who wish to walk there. LEGAL TENDER. Tender of monow may legally be made in the cas eol bronze coins, for any amount not exceeding Js; in .the ease of silver coins, not exceeding JOs ; in th cease of gold coins for any amount, unless coined prior to the reign of Queen Victoria (33 and 31 Vic-, e. 10, sec. -I, and Royal Proclamation 22, Nov., 1890). Bank notes are not legal tender in New Zealand, although made a first charge on the assets <>l the batik ol i.-sue ("Bank Note Issujj Act, 18l>3." sec. 3). STRIKING ROSE CUTTINGS. An important element- of success i-n strikikng rose cuttings m summer is keeping them perfectly fresh - i-o , they must be just as fresh when placed in the soil as when cut from the trees: in fact, (lie work can not he done too quickly. If once the cuttings shrivel and tliey shrivel rapidly few will grow; but. Tf quite fresh, well selected, and rightly inserted, lew will fail. This esential of perfect freshness can iie maintained when (lie number of cuttings is limited. THE SEASONS, ! Autumn begins on March 21st; Winj ter on .June 21st (the shortest day); Spring commences on September 23rd; Summer on December. 22nd (the longest day). From observations, extending over j.t number of years, it appears ' that, on the average, the hottest period is from the 21st to the 25th of .January, and the coldest from the 20th to the 24th of July. These nci - iods, therefore, are the natural midsummer and midwinter. IMPOUNDING CATTLE, ETC. All trespassing cattle may be impounded by the occupier of the land | on which they are trespassing; buu in ! the case of unfenced land, the occuI pier is uot entitled to claim any dam- ' ages except fees for driving, or lor | giving notice of the detention of such | cattle, as provided in the Second I Schedule. j If the land is fenced, the occupier j may claim the trespass rates provided |in the Second Schedule, or he may j_ciaim and sue for the amount of actual" I damage sustained.
