Efforts are being made by- the Petone Ambulance Society to raise sufficient f undft -to tide it over the ensuing twelve months. This week is- being termed "Ambulance Week,"' and collection boxes have been placed in .various parts of the town. On Saturday afternoon next there will be benefit nockey and football .matches on the recreation ground. " I hope the public will respond this time better than it has done on previous occasion*," said the secretary (Mr. W. B. Gough) this morning. " i sun,"' he continued, " thoroughly disappointed at the non-success which has attended' , oui efforts to raise money. People seem to think we are a moneymaking concern. The public does not eeem to realise that wp aie anxious to do it.good, and save it money. Why, a sporting club receives better support than we do."' As proof that the van is eerving its purpose, Mr. Gough mentioned that last month as many as nine trips were made into Wellington, making a total of 94 trips to date. The Petone Fire Board has accepted the tender of Messrs. Southgate and Company, Petone, for the erection of the new fire station. Tho contract was signed this morning, the price being £^272. The architect ie Mr. A. S. Mitchell, of Wellington. At a meeting of the Management Committee of the Wellington Football Club, held last evening, it was unanimously decided; on the motion of Mr. T. S. Ronaldeon, club president, "Thai this committee has every confidence in Mr. Weir as its delegate on the union and as captain of the club, and it desires to express- its appreciation of his efforts in the interests of the game of Rugby foolball." • ' ' PetoneV municipal roll, for use at the Mayoral .election .next month, will not be an ..large as that used at the elections last year. The new law provides that all who did uot vote must be struck off the roll, -and as only about half the electors voted last y«ar, approximately 1500 names were struck off. Againtt this, however, about 900 new names have been sent in. The total roll number should be about 2500. Haying noticed in v. recent issue of the A6bburron Cuardhm a paragraph to the effect, that an-.orchardisc in the Mount Hutfc district had practically rid his orchard of the eodlin moth by placing a mixture' at the -ratio of one labkspoonful of tredcle, ono tablospoonful of vinegar, and a pint of water in wide-necked bottles, tho bottles being suspended from tho stems of the fruit trees, Mr. G. Aston, >o£ ,Belt-road, Ashburton, tried tho tiuno -iriethodj with most gratifying re?u? vl It?'1 t ?' i,,P 8m S tins instead ot' bottles, and hulL tilling them with the mixture eet forth abo\e, Mr. Aston hus succeeded in capturing largo numbers of this. pest. Tho injects appear to be -very fond of tho mixture, ttiid, once attracted, dnalh to thorn is certain. Tho mixture only requiues changing otioe in three weeks, so inut, the exptiiibu as well us the trouble is not vrorth considering. As each female moth lays a largo number of egge, tho easy destruction of thousands of thorn, as is possible by this method, should greatly roduco the post ; and, if orchardists combined in their oilortß while the moth is on the wing, they, like the Mount Ilutt orcharchet, should be able to at least so greatly -reduce tho number of moths that their ravages would not be felt. Speaking to a Dunedin Star reporter, a Dunedin produce morchunt in a big way contradicts tho opinion made in the North >thtit potatoes ivill bo wcarce in Canlerbuty, Otago, and Southland. Ho has just travelled all overJthe South Island, and Ptutoß that on tho contrary they will bo .plentiful, especially in Iho North Otago. • He points out also, with regard to another .statement, that New Zealand potatoes, are practically prohibited from entering Au»tralia.
