Worth Knowing.
'A correspondent, -writing to th'« Otago Daily Times respecting the cqmplaints made of a dangerous nui^t ance in the shap,e „ of macrop&rpa hedges, says—-" There are many people who fancy that they can do exaotlly m they please, on their own premises, without regard to , their neighbours , safety Or convenience. They. are mistaken. L The r law recpgnises the n'eiglibour. Briefly then, it is not lawful foi' anyone to plant a live fence—macroparpa, bramble, or what not — near a boundary fence without first obtaining the writteji permission of tKe neighbour, the *owner on the other side of the boundary fence. - Failing suph permission, he graws. his liv^ fe^ice at his own risk. It might be cvijt dqwn, or he might be compelled to, remove it as dangerous, and should such fence take fire he will be liable for damages caused by- such fire to dwellings,-, outbuildings, fences or crops. • '
