NEW ZEALAND AND IRELAND
Sir,-In your last issue there was a complaint that I had stated that New Zealand farmers used candles and lamps, as there was no electricity in the country districts. What I actually said was: " Unlike New Zealand, electricity is not in general use in the country. Lamps and candles are their main form of light." I was speaking of Ireland at the time. Careless listening can be a serious matter in times
like these.
