Wairarapa farmers who luwig on to their oaten straw chaff, wheat and hay in anticipation of receiving vcr.v high prices have not had tlieir hopes realised •(says an exchange). One Masterton farmer who had 1-500 bushels of •wheat' on hand, cannot find a buyer, even at a price lower than that ruling lately. In fact it looks as if some farmers who havo hung on to their wheat have been "bitten." - From a visitor to Levin, The Chronicle learns that in Wellington Hospital just now is a returned boJilier whose case is a puzzle to uiodieal men. The soldier went to Egypt with the first New Zealand Contingent. Illness prevented him from seeing active service. Twice all hope of his living wan* given up, and twice a minister yave him the last services of the church. ■ However, he lived through, and was returned tc« Aew Zealand on ihe Willoclrra. A nurse who hid him goud-'jye in Hg. v pt was astounded wlien she reached Saw Zealand to find him still living., and a follow soldier who believed he had looked his last upon the invalid several months ago, in Egypt., was astounded to find him alive in Wellington- this month. "Who on earth du<£ you up?" was his ejaculation. The invalid has just put in a large part ot hie time ; n the consumptives' ward at Wellington, but ■ a careful study of his case lias convinced the doctors that there is no 1 consumption in him, but that probably ho Buffers from hydatids. It is considered certain that he had this diseasebefore he left New Zealand, for the current belief is that 110 cases of it are known north of the oquator. The Shannon Co-operative Dairy Co. rerpesonted iby C. Ji. Morison, applied in the Supreme Court yesterday for an amendment of their memorandum oi association to give them the necessary powers to supply dairy farmers with all their requirements in the way of dairy stock and pedigree stock, lann implements, and such like. "This dairy company, 1 bee," said His Honour, -Mr Justice Hoskins, "asks powers to establish a sawmill, buy and sell timber and so forth. That isn't the work of a dairy company." "It is ail ancillary to the business," "urged counsel. "A small engine to cut up about UOOU feet of timber per day i n- butter boxes, cheese crates, and so forth, is all they want." His Honour reserved his decision.—N.Z. Times.
