FOR SUMMER NIGHTS. USE “GOLDEN RAYS.” Of the many excellent reasons why Golden Ray Candles should be used, the fact that they do not droop is perhaps the most important.

The road from Ngatea to Kaihere, which was impassable during the winter, has now dried up considerably, and the Lands Department is having it, disced. Should the fine weather hodd the road should be passable for traffic within a few days. It is the intention of the Department to make a road behind the present stopbank on the Puhonga canal, and a st,rip of land a chain wide has been taken from the settlers for that purpose. Telephone postg have been shifted back and trees removed, and five gangs of men are digging a 12ft wide drain. The spoil, together with that now forming the stop-bank, will be used to form the road. This will be done with a Bucyrus dredge. The batter on the western side of the canal will also be improved.
