The regular monthly meeting of the Masterton Farmers' Club takes place this afternoon,

The Featherston Recreation Ground, near the Empire Hotel, lmubeen ploughed, levelled and graßsed, and an application made to Dr Hector for a number of trees. This should be some inducement for the Featherston cricketers to bring their Club up to the old standard," During the past season practice was not indulged in, owing to the want of a suitable ground, This want will ncJw be supplied.

Miss Ada Campbell's final, lecture' in Masterton will be given in the Theatre Royal to-iminw evening.

If such be tin- case he. may bo wished a happy issue out of the contest, and a safe return to the bosom of his family. The Timaru Horald states that 52 acres of reserved land at Psreora, thrown open for application in three lots, attracted 43 intending purchasers, and the excitement called back to memory the old days of the land fever.
