An indignant member of the Bowling Club writes: There have been many visitors to inspect the Central Dairy Factory near ( as- Square since its erection and now that ! it is in full operation, its interior arrangements are generally approved. The managing director. however has had liis attention directed o'n more than one occasion, to the- failure to erect a smoke stack, and lie lias for mouths past promised In have this necessary attention given, hut so lar he lias not carried out those promises. Many visitors have been on the local howling green during the past week and have expressed their surprise that the green should he flooded with dense smoke, every time t.lrn boiler is stoked, when a very small

expenditure would at once relieve the nuisance. The conditions during the Inst two or three tints have been specially unsatisfactory, with a south-wester-|v blowing, and 1 nrthor complaints have again been voiced. It should surolv not he necessary to again refer to this matter, to have it rectified. Perhaps the Chairman of Directors will take n note.
