NEWS AND NOTES.
“II always pays to look prosperous whether you are or not. Everybody helps the prosperous looking man; they kick down the man who is going down.” This little bit of philosophy fell from the lips oi' the president of the Ashburton A. and P. Association when he was urging the meeting to agree to give the show buildings a coat of paint. It is probably not known to most people that pigs—the four-footed variety— sometimes go fishing. A local angler (says the Wanganui Chronicle) vouches for this fact, and said that he has seen pigs fishing for “eockabully” in the small streams that run into Lake Taupo. These fish are of a, diminutive species, and at certain seasons of the year leave the lake in vast shoals to ascend the small streams.
