The Executive of Rangitikei Rifle Association met at Bulls yesterday and decided to postpone the shooting competition at Bulls from St. Patrick’s Day to March 38th. This was done in order to comply with the wishes of a, number of Riflemen who have been to Treutham and find it inconvenient to attend on tho former date. The [Secretary of tho Association informs us that shooting arrangements on the Bulls range are completed and that judging by inquiries made by outside shots a largo nomination is expected. The j Rifle Association begs to acknowledge liberal donations jfrom Mr John Stevens, M.P., Messrs J. Lumsden and E. Newman.
