An . action was heat'd before Air Justice Pnng and a jury in Sydney in which Mary Jeffries sought to recover LSOO as compensation from H. G. Kilb’for injuries inflicted on her by a bulfthe property of the defendant. The case for the plaintiff was that she and her husband were vendors of poultry, and while plying her occupa tion she called at the defendant’s place at Hunter’s Hill. While walking down the pathway she saw a brindle bulldog rushing across the lawn at her. It seized her by the leg, and had to be pulled off by her husband and the gardener on-the premises. Her clothing saved her partially, but her leg was lacerated. She suffered greatly from shock, which brought on a serious illness. The defence was that the bulldog did not bite the piaintifl'. After hearing evident e the jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff for L. 150 damages. The supply of locally-grown fruit in South Wairarapa is not nearly sufficient to meet the demand. A "movement was on foot to establish a jam factory at Greytown, but on a canvasser being sent round the district it was found that the supply was inadequate and •would not warrant the establishment of a factory. New. areas, however, are now being laid down in orchards, and in the course of two or three years a jam factory in the district mav be warranted. Orchard pests have been fairly well contended with, most of the growers of fruit realising that it is absolutely necessary to take rigid steps to clean their trees. One of the worstgrowing fruit trees in the district is the Japanese plum, and the suggestion is made that it, would be a good thing if the whole of that species were £to be destroyed,' as they seem to encourage s> much blight that it spreads from them to other fruit trees. Ten miles back in the mountains that lie behind Dunedin, a journalist diseoved an old man who did not know who Mr Seddon or Sir Robert Stout were, nor what prohibition meant. He has not been to Dunedin for twenty vears. The steamer Wingfield left Port Adelaide on Friday week with what is said to be the largest single shipment of chaff which has left South Australian shores. In her holds were stowed 36,421 bags 9 bales of chaff, all of which was for consumers in New South Wales Her cargu of chaff was split up between Sydney and Now-castle as follows : 29,733 bags to Sydney and 6688 bags 9 bales to Newcastle. Light buoys that night and day burn gas from a storage tank, and run for months or even a year, have proved so successful that the same automatic system has been tiied successfully on a lightship, described by the Scientific American. T.'e ship is off Otter Rock, near Islay. The gas is stored in tanks at a pressure of something over 1501 b. Before the gas reaches the burners it passes through a device which rings a bell automatically three times a minute so that, even when the sea is calm x ships in a fog are warned. The bell rings and the light burns for months without attention. Who hasn’t been attacked by Grippe, And languished in its hold ; How many give this li!e the slip, Neglecting cough or cold. Gaunt men with cough and hollow cht W hose death seems almost sure, Can pick up health if they but seek For WOOD'S GREAT PEPPi MINT CURE. Woums undermine Children's Const tions.
