"There is a false conception in lite cities of the great time which the farmers are having, but it is not there. Because city people are having a wonderful time they think everyone else is," said Mr Lloyd Hammond, group representative, at a meeting of the Wanganui provincial branch of the New Zealand Farmers' Union. "We are rapidly approaching a crisis in the farming industry in this country such as we have never had before, not even in the big slump." Mr Hammond said the Government was not prepared to reduce farming costs though it had been approached time and time again. According to a broadcast Italian | announcement from Tripoli, any inhabitant pf Libya found guilty of \v&tening to the Tunis wireless station | will be liable to a fine of 500 lire or, |if the offence is repeated, to a month's imprisonment. Listening to certain other stations, such as Mos- | cow, is punishable by a month's im- ! prisonment for the first offence. Friend, when a cold invades the nose, And damp the daily hanky grows, <( When racking coughs distract the breast, And rob you of your nightly rest, And shooting pains in chest and joint To pulmonary troubles point— What can once more good health ensure ? Why, simply Woods' Great Pepp^-- , mint Cure. .
