MEETING OF COMMITTEE. -The committee meeting of ithe club was lie Id last Friday evening. Mr 1). .Malone occupied the chair. The secretary was instructed to arrange with Mr Geo. Ford (stock inspector) to select a suitable date for a lecture on cattle diseases. It was decided that early -ill September will be a convenient time.

It was deckled that the annual bull fair under the auspices of the club be held on Monday, October 13. Cataloguing and advertising were left in the hands of the secretary. Two remits from the Inglewood Club were discussed: (1) That the Taranaki Provincial Council request the auctioneers to reduce the rate of commission on pedigree- sales; (2) that in future the Council make arrangements for cataloguing and advertising pr - vincial and club sales, with a view to reducing the cost to vendors.—lt was decided not to support either of the remits.
