Fifty-seven years ago, on October 25, the light Brigade charged the Russian | guns at Balaclava. Of the six hundred who set out on that glorious ride, two' officers—Lord Tredegar and Sir Georga Wombwell— and twenty non-commission-ed officers and men were able to attend the anniversary dinner at the Hilbura ! Restaurant. They were:—J. Mustard, 17th (Duke of Cambridge's Own) Bus'sars; J. Parkinson, W. H. Spring, W. H. Pennington, and M. Holland, 11th | (Prince Albert's Own) Hussars; W. Bird, Bth (King's' Own) Hussars; H. Herbert, IJ. OUey and H. Wisdon, 4th (Queen'f | Own) Light Dragoons; and A. H. Camp- | bell and E. Hindley, 13th Light Dragoons; The youngest is 79 years of age, but with one or two exceptions all are hale and hearty, and there seems every reason for | hoping that most of them may Ibc spared .for a good many years yet. ' ACCOUNT OF ME. YEAGER'S TRIAL. During the month of July the "Gane"■; Milking Machine Co., Ltd., received '■'«, letter from Mr. Yeager, of Kyogle, New ; South Wales, asking them if they were willing to put in a two-cow milking machine on trial for si weeks against a two-cow milking plant each of the following machines, namely, the L.K.G., the Austral and the Jersey. It is believed the Austral did not take up the challenge, though other machines competed. - The trial commenced on August 8, and by the 21st the Gane Company received! word that the advantages of their machine were so apparent that Mr. Yeager had decided to order three 12-cow plants from them. One of these is already in working order, and the other two are to be erected as soon as possible, in order that : Mr. Yeager may deal with a herd of about one thousand cows. Mr. Yeager decided in favor of the "Gane," although from what can be heard, the price of the "Gane" was some. £3OO in excess of the others.—Advt. ; Self-control is the great factor em-, ployed in the conservation of personal, magnetism, but Warner's .Rust-proof Corsets for comfort and figure elegance.— Advt.
