. A further letter has been writlea to tho Ministor of Railways by Mr. W. C. Buchanan on tho subject of shoop trucks. In a former letter Mr Buchanan urged that shcop trucks should be made to open at the onds, so as to allow of sheep being put on board moro speedily than under tho present system, and tho Minister replied that the change had previously been tried and found not to bo effective. Mr. Buchanan now points out to tho Minister that he has misunderstood the position. The previous experiment was made 'with trucks that only had a small aperture at tho end: what thoyvask is that the truck should bo open to tho full width. No reply has yet been received from tho Ministor on the subject. Your furniture packed, removed, or stored. Experienced and careful men. By road, rail, or »ea. Anywhere. New Zealand Express Co., Custombouee^xiuay. JM. 1333.-Advt, * H ' ,
