ilit Dow, an Australian winter to the. States, declares that the private Dairy h America-.is'a thing of-thepast..---,lt. ins been supplanted.by...the*..Erifctory lystem. The latter' has: bean' developng .and progressing" for -thirty throe fears. In New Zealand we are dis-' satisfied if our factories are not .Mediately successful, but the' fact ;hatit takes a long series of years to tiring them to perfection in the States jught to reconcile: tts. to tlie' slow-rate Dfprogross which' we are making, and to encourage us to persevere in the futuie. Mr Dow, also .assert?, th'at the - seems to.be more due to the adoption, of a good system. of working, than, to "faYonfable local 'circumstances, The land of the dairy farmers is'not by any '■ means'rich, hor'are- the cb.ws, as a rule,,purebred. /They have, however, been improved by' crosses from Jersey, Holsleinj and Ayrshire strains, much the same way as the farmers of the Middle Island jtr< improving "their cattle, the : farmerb o! the'Northilsland, as a nmtter of course being all .behind. Prices obtained foi -dairy produce are very little highei than New Zealand rates, and tin difference is lessened still further bj the superior 'quality of the Americat article. Then again the climate o: New Zealand is-infinitely superior t( to that of America for dairy enterprise Four or live mouths of frost and snov in the States constitutes a barrier to th factory industry which is unknown ii the: Colony. Apparently the mail difference between American and'Nev .Zealand dairy enterprise is that in th States they are educated'." to carry .ou an efficient and intelligent system,.ani we, as yet, are. unediicatedvllVe hop the time will arrive when a dairy factory will supersede all the private dairies in.the neighbourhood of Master:ton, and when all the cows in the hands of our farmers will be-well graded, and the dairy produce, whether it bo butter or-cheese,'even in quality, and every ounce of it fit for export to either London or Jericho. The Mastorton farmers might, .under the factory system, receive more money in the year from their cows than they now derive fromgrain. • : Matua's £5,000 Consultation on the Wellington Autumn Cups is advertised in another column, and we can recommend it as a trustworthy investment. The Club Hotel Btables are advertised in another column to be let. Mr Ormond has planted five acres of tobacco on his Hawke's Bay property this season, ■ Mr John Bullock, bookseller and fancy goods importer, Wellington, oaks Wairarapa visitors to the- Empire City to inspect 10,000 Christmas prese.nts which he is now displaying. \ A curious feature'in the proceedings ot the R M. Court at Carterton yesterday was that in a case Paraone Pahoro against W. P. Anderson, two interpreters had to be sworn in order that the case- might be proceeded with, MrFreeth was sworn lo interpret the Maori evidence, while Mr Sydom was, sworn as Scandinavian Interpreter, the delendant being' a foreigner who did not understand English.. The late session was unusually fruitful of good stories, in more than-one of which Sir George Grey figures conspicuously. The best of all these, perhaps, : is the latest. On the day after the prorogation steamers were leaving- both for North and South with the members who had stayed for the finish, -and' SirGeorge Grey and Mr Pyke met on tha eve of embarkation. " Goodbye, .Sir George,', said Mr Pyke, "We shall meet again next Bession." "Idont know, Pyke," replied Sir George, cautiously. "We may, but then, wbut I mean to say is, we may not." "Well, it we don't meet at "Wellington, we shall meet in the next world,'-' "I hope not, Pyke,"—with an air of pity, not unmingled with", alarm —"What I mean, to say is, I hope not I Well, good-bye, Pyke, good-bye." And before Mr Pyke had time to recover mn> self sufficiently to think of a repartee, the .veteran was on board the Northern ■steamer on his way to Auckland.' Mr - Pyke says he hopes they will meet again in this world, if only to Rive him aohance of his revenge, —Timaru Herald, Messrs Whitt & Donaldson have on view an extending dining table on an entirely new and'origmal principle, the . invention of Mr Whitt. of that firm, It can-be used in three sizes, as a card table, or extending to a six' feet dining table, or .when.required, to eight feet, without the troubln'of removing the leaves, as hi the old telescope tables.

Captain Edwin has received the following message from Roxburgh;— Between four and five p.m. yesterday a heavy thunder cloud burst over.lhe township and vicinity within a circuit of about four miles, causing the creeks to flood to such an extent as to carry away the town water works, tearing up the supply pipes, opening up culverts of twonty years standing, and doing damage to the extent of at least four or dyo hundred pounds. J, 6. ..Harris, a- rathor eccentrict individual, writes the Press, entered the police station yesterday afternoon and said he was m'a'd and wsnted to be locked up. He rushed into Inspector Sherman's office and entreated that gentleman to run. him in. After Harris had danced a Highland fling and a nigger breakdown he was ; taken into custody for being of an unsound mind, and was subsequently examiued by Drs Henry and McKellar, who pronounced him to be suffering from excitement, caused through worry, but, though not a fit person to be sent to an asylum, at • the same time required attention. Our local contemporary, referring to the " Waring'Taylor" case, writes—" We. have no sympathy with crime, but we can feel for the mental agony of a blighted life, and if, unlike the United Press, we have refused to join in the cry of the crucifiers, it is because we have never been able to reooncile our ideas of human chivalry with pouring water on a drowned rat, or, however great his iadesoretioni, jumping on the prostrate. We are not ashamed to admit that'we do not beloug to" the united press of the colony." We have much pleasure in echoing the sentiment so ably expressed by our contemporary. An ..oak, though it be : blasted and fallen, is still a superior artiole to the brambles which flout it,We had tbepleasure of visiting'to-day the.new.reßidenoe.in GhapaFstreet which' • .lias reoently been''ereoted to the order of Mr WyT; Headmaster of the '. Masterton Public School, It was'designed by ;;; Mr Q.'_Fanfliu,.r-the: well-known architect, '-for'jhV. aooomm'ddatibn of, boarders, and .his plan'has beau admirably carried' -oilt by Mr Alexander who . obtained thecontraot for the erection of the building. -Iris situated on sfaoious grounds cphfi»iious to the' public school and overlooks a considerable area of open oouutry, The building contains.on the ground floors spacious 'dining room, and convenient parlours, kitchen, and bathroom. The'upper.floor is devoted to bedrooms and a lavatory, giving accommodation for fifteen boarders. Since th& High- School was established a demand has arisen for suitable accommodation for children whose parents reside in out-lyine districts. Mr Grundy, with commendable enterprise, determined to supply every requirement, and the result is a coramodiona boarding establishment, surrounded by well planted grounds, in a healthy locality which will do much to develope higher education in Wairarapa North,
