BOARD OF AGRICULTURE.
BOYS’ CLUBS APPROVED. THE FENCING ACT. By Telegraph --Press Association. Wellington. July 28. The importance of furthering the movement in connection with the initiation of boys’ agricultural clubs, as carried on in Taranaki by the Farmers’ Union, was emphasised before the meeting of the Board of Agriculture and the scheme has the board’s hearty support. It is proposed to circulate A. and P. Associations urging the formation of clubs in different parts’of the Dominion where they do not exist. The suggestion was placed before the board to have the Fencing Act amended to permit the use of lighter wire than is specified in the construction of a sufficient fence. This received full consideration. but the board is of opinion that further lengthy tests of lighter wire are required to establish the claims made for it before any alteration is made in the Act.
