INGLEWOOD.

(From Our Own Correspondent.) Oct. 14. The quarterly returns of business transcated at the Inglewood Magistrate’s Court during the quarter ended September 30 are as follows: Amount sued for, £772 Is Id; amount recovered, £385 Os 2d; plaints entered, 31; judgment summonses heard, 6; summonses served, 80; civil fees paid, £39 1 16s. In all 18 criininal cases were dealt ■ with. Criminal fees paid totalled £3 3s, i and fines paid £23 18s. The final bout for the cribbage cham- ; pionship between the Coffee Palace team I and the Volunteer Fire Brigade was played : on Tuesday night at the Coffee Palace.

The contest was a very close one, and ended in favor of the Coffee Palace team by one game. Five tables were occupied, and the final, scores were: C.P.T., 32; V.F.8., 31. The principal toast of the evening, “The Vanquished Players”, was proposed by Mr. J. Sutherland, and drunk to musical honors.

The home separators claim that they are unjustly charged in the accounts of the company with a butterfat proportion of the cost of maintaining and working the creamery, which, so far as they are concerned, acts merely as carrier of their already separated cream to the “Butter Banging Bungalow”, the main factory. Some twenty dairy farmers are affected, and ’tis said they are determined, if their request for reasonable treatment at the hands of their fellow-share-holders in the Mangorei Company are refused, to accept an offer made by another company to collect their cream and treat them on liberal terms. From what can be gathered it seems that the growing tendency to eliminate the creameries in favor of home separation and company transport of cream to one centre has obtained *u ’ hot'. will be difficult to over
