Mr T, E. Taylor, M.H.R., has writter to Canon Boyce, a Syd ney Prohibitionist clergyman, as follows : . r^e no-license vote is poost encouraging. The figures aie nob absolutely settled yet, but we have polled 159,600 votes for no-license, whilst the trade vote for continuance was only about 143,000. Newspapers of all shades of opinion predict that New Zealand will be a Prohibition colony in 1908. We will welcome a visit from you within the next year or two, if that is possible. The next three years’ work is the most critical we have yet faced, and any help renderod now will be most valuable. I think this colony is determined to try Prohibition, and if she succeeds the Commonwealth will have to own its indebtedness to Greater Britain in reform work.” Four bullocks were killed the other day at the Long burn Freezing Works which were of record weight. Three were four-year-olds, and one was a year younger, and the weights were 13281 b, 12301 b. 11881 b and 11821 b. When frozen they weighed out an average of 1 1941 b, the carcases having an average of 941 b of loose fat on the inside of each. The most interesting point about the cattle was that from the time they left their mothers up to the time they were killed, they were fed entirely on a Rangitikei pasture, the property of the owner, Mr Donald Fraser, the animals not having tasted a turnip, hay, or any other special fodder. Two of the bullocks took first prize in their class at the Palmerston show. Newcastle, N.S.W., recently had a benefit race meeting, and some clergymen asked that their churches might participate, but they were told that as they disapproved of racing their position was illogical, and the proceeds, £450. were handed to the local hospital by the promoter, Mr C. Hannell. At a recent meeting of the Adelaide City Council it was reported that for the third year in succession every shilling of the year’s rates had been collected. The Victorian apple crop bids fair to he this season a very good one. Already, says the Australasian, space has been secured in steamers for 49,000 cases of apples for export to Europe. Last season our total shipments amounted to only 33,000 cases. A private cablegram received at Hobart from Messrs Woodall and Co., Temple Court, Liverpool, states that the importations of American apples tor Liverpool alone for the present season, up to the 11th ult., amounted to 500,000 barrels, equal to 1,500,000 bushels, as against 90,000 barrels, equalling 270,000 bushels, for the corresponding period of 1901.
