NOXIOUS WEEDS ACT.

The Department of Agriculture (Mr Deem.) prbceededagainst A. C. Pearce (Mr Welsh) for failing to eradicate ragwort from his section at Ptko Piko. The evidence given on behalf of the prosecution was 'to the effect tfcat no action had been taken on, the part of the owner to rid his place of the weed, although he had been notified to do so.

Mr Welsh, for the defenoe, submitted that the place did not belong to Pearce,. b<u-b to another person, as an agreement had been entered into by a, .gentleman in Wellington with Mr Pearce to purchase the section. He contended the question to be decided was as to whom tho land /belonged. ;
