I The Labour Journal publishes the { following in reference to Palmerston I North : Building trades : Fairly brisk. Engineering trade : Steady. Boot trade (factories) Steady. Clothing trade (factories) : Very quiet. No extra hands needed or overtime being worked. Retail trade (general) : Quiet. Miscellaneous ; The fax-mills in this district are expected to start operations next month. At present work in this line is at a standstill. Unskilled labour : It will be seen from the usual monthly labour report that very lew persons have applied here for work, and work on the North Island Main Trunk Railway has deen offered and given to all likely men. The different registry offices in this town have had many inquiries from men out of work, and have placed most of them. Generally speaking, the demand tor unskilled labour is not equal to the supply. 0 Our Dressmaking Department is now in first-class working order, and we should like to take this opportunity of recommending our to place their orders as soon as possible and thus save disappointment, for as the season advances the greater the rush. — Watchorn, Stiles & Co.
