A otter was read at the Canterbury Acclimitißation Society from Mr J. 0, Boys, one of its mombers', 'Mr Boys wrote:—"l bad it on very good authority that a farmer made £CO from red clover seed off two acres of land." Dj Prankish supplemented this remark by .observing that he know of a local firm which had paid for a half ton of red clover seed atthe-rate of Id per lb more than was paid by merchants in England (exclusive of expenses) for English seed, From tho above, remarks' the -Pross; it would appear that the Society has done some good by introducing tho humble beo into Canterbury,

-A Ma'sterton triplet is going the rounds of tho press, but tho productive powers of matrimony in' this district have been overstated. It appears that a local parent in a moment of inebriety announced that his family had been increased by the simultaneous addition of three members, and was in the very net of receiving congratulations from his boon companions, when his good wife, who was understood, to have teen distinguishing herself, marched on to the scene and said, "dear father come homo,"

• A- corf espeudent's; letter rccontly appeared in our'(Post) columns on.the' subject of tho railway rates from the "Wairarapa 011 chaff, &o„ We havo niade.enquirics. on the subject and find that tho lowest sea froightsto Wellington'on sucli produco; with wharfage added, are just about double the railway, rato from' Mastorton, Wo find also that the tramway Bnbles in Wellington aro supplied with chaff from Sandou, which is conveyed by rail at a cost for freight of COs 8d per- truck—as against 34s lOd from Masterton. These facts should afford food for reflection to our farmer readers «erorally of the "Wairarapa, and to our correspondent in particular. There seems to be no reason really why-the fanners of the Wairarapa should not have the produce trade of Wellington entirely in their own hands, and they would probably aoon do bo if they wore |.to energetically bid for it.

Mr tho representative of ; Messrs,,H,jß.^arner & Coof.J'.Safo Cure"fameisnow in Masterton, Ho arrived/last May from a tour through the Australian colonies for the purposo of, introducing' tho firms new prepara- ' tidnß into New Zealand,' 'Among these are Warner's Safe.: Asthma • Cure, Warrierfc Safe Rhe'umatio' Cure; and Warner's Safe Nervine, tho latter being described as a nerve tonic of .'exceptional vigor, Theso preparations, like the tirtn's elisor and kidney specific—the Warner's Safe.Cure—are all composed • of herbal elements, whhV their curative powers are demonstrated in a vast number of Colonial testimonials which for distinction and 'strength are quite beyond anything hitherto submitted in matters of such vital importance affecting public health, Among theso of recent date we find strong endorsements from loading mombora of tho faculty and quite a host of prominent colonists, viz, DrStirling, LROSI, tho widelyknowu practitioner, of Dunedin, Dr Leggatt, tho eminent surgeon of Nelson, the Rev Wm Campbell, of Dunedin, the Rev Benj Yassea, pf Wailfonajte, the Rev E E Chambers, of Lyttclton, Major Hamlin, Chairman or Ooipiitteo of the House of Representatives, Mr Jas Grimmand, M fl R, Mr R H J Reeves, M H R, Mr MoParlane, schoolmaster of Carterton, Mr Thos. E, Price, of Mastertoh, and innumerable o!hor testimonials which prove beyond doubt the efficiency of Warner's Safe Remedies when other means signally failed, It is how an established fact that most diseases incidental to countries liable to sudden climatic changes emanate from tho liver and kidneys, For a' thousand years or mora the false philosophy of Aristotle enslaved the minds of civilised minds, but it has now perished for ever'' like a tale that is told." Were prompt and proper moans employed to reinvigorate the system when health is failing disease could not invade tho cidatel of life. Warner's Safe Curo has proved a thorough specific for all complaints arising from disorder pf liver and kidneys .'and is acknowledged the only known cure for Bright's disease of tho kidneys. The firms new remedies are equally effective for their intended: purposo a'nd'fayqredbytjie'liigh chataoter of Warner's Safe Cure they hayo mot we learn with a constantly increasing Bale and mid their medicinal virtues aro fully .recognised, ; Mr Elsasser, known through his loi)g connection with the Fourth estate, wjll remain in town until to-morrow, when ho will proceed to the northern 'towns.en roufe for Napier andAucklaiid.
