The Walrarapa Farmers' Co-operative Association have, we understand, obtained central oßicos in Wellington in tho Athemeum Building, on Lambton Quay, and Mr Lionel Caselberg will ehortly tako charge and act as thetrtown agent there. Besides giving attention to the Association's import and export trade, Mr Caaelberg's servicos will be specially devoted to the sale of farmers' produoe. The advantage to sottlers of being brought into direct contact with tho seller in a good market liko Wellington cannot be over-estimated, and the Company should be able to eecuro excellent results for ita clients undor their new departure.

Only ono petition in bankruptcy has been filed in Wellington during the present month, 'jLv Education Board deoidod yesterday 1 that the scholarship examination should bo hold on tho 18th and 19th of next month, Hans Beck, shcepfarmer of the East Coast, was declared a bankrupt this morning, Now that sneak thieves are ravaging Masterton it would be well if a policeman were out on duty all night, This would mean strengthening the staff, which at present is inadequate for night duty; but the town has a right to be protected, Probably just as the last constable goes to bed tho Bneak thief gets up, with full confidence that he will be undisturbed in the fow calls ho proposes to mako.

Attention in directed to Mr Richard Jones' announcement regarding ''The Little Fruit Shop," next tn Lowes and loidb' auction room, Masterton. Mr Jones already has an attractive stock of fruit on sale at moderate prlcei, In a few days time, however, his assortment will be considerably increased, and fresh consignments will bo arriving constantly, A guessing competition will probably bojmo of tlie popular institutions at the ifjffing Mastorton Pastoral Show. This yoar Mr James Stuckey has offered a prize of £2 2s to be awarded to the person who most nearly estimates the correct weight of a bollock selected alter tha live stock exhibits are oa the ground. The Association contemplates adding a second prize, and fixing an entrance fee of one shilling, nn payment of which anyone present will bo entitled to register a gaoss, We should say that the entrance fees for this event will amount to ' no inconsiderable sum, as most people will be inclined to risk one shilling in an endeavour to prove their own sagacity, Aran the deluge of waters we havo ex* perionccd for the last two months we may hope that now "Spring, mild ctherial spring," will visit the land and prove to bo no transient guest, Everyone wants fine weather, Everyono wants to see the radiant sunshine, and every la jy in the city is doubtless most anxious to see the wonderful and attractive spring fashions now op snout at re Aro House,
