FARMERS AND ARBITRATION.
By Telegraph.—Press Association. l'eikling, Last Night. A guinea subscription fund was opened in the Feilding Star office this afternoon, at the request of representative farmers, as a means of showing appreciation of the successful effort 01 the farmers of Canterbury in opposing the demands of the Farm Laborers' Union. Within a short time, eleven farmers from Feilding, Cheltenham, Waituna; Bulls, Aoraagi, Makino, Awanuri and Kiwitea had contributed a guinea each. The organisers of the fund also intend the movement to be an expression of confidence in the Arbitration Court's attitude towards the agricultural and pastoral interests. The contributors feel that it is only fair that the farmers of the w'holc Dominion should recognise that the farmers of Canterbury by so sturdily contesting the demands'of the Farm Laborers' Union, really saved every farmer much expense. It is intended to communicate with Messrs. David Jones and Acland.
