Many of the fruitgrowers are looking a bit "blue". at present (reports the Motueka correspondent of the Colonist), but this is due to continually spraying with Bordeaux mixture, and not from any fear of the future of the fruit markets. Motor pumps are quite plentiful, and the amount of spraying materials used is enormous. One grower alone will use 15cwt of bluestone this season, andi this will cost over £20, without the expense ofmixing and pitting it on. Pound ihe Moutere inlet the whole face of the country is changing, and where three years ago there was nothing, but gorseand manuka, how there is a succession of young orchards, varying in extent from eight to twenty acres. In Tasman plantung is going on on a much larger scale, and if the main road to Nelson is made through this valley the drive from Nelson will in a few years be through a succession of smiling orchards. This will be a. pleasant change from climbing the Moutere hills, and will prove to be a most attractive drive for tourist?. JASMIN CREME.

The attraction of a university course at Oxford and of a sojourn amid the snow and ioo of the south have weighed about equally in the mind of Mr Maddjgan, who in an endeavor to enjoy both distinctions, is journeying to.London to interview the trustees of the Rhodes bequest. "It is my intention to secure the consent of the trustees," Mr Maddigan explained to a reporter before leaving Adelaide, "to enable mo to proceed on the South Polar Expedition, and on our return to take up my course at Oxford.^ I am informed that that is a perfectly legal request to make, inasmuch as the will of the late Cecil Rhodes, with, regard to the scholarship bequests, provides that the selected scholar fchall attend the university at homo | within six months of his selection uni less the trustees permit an extension of that time. lam hopeful tJiat an extension of time will be granted j lin my case. My present journey is i i necessary, as there is no time for ; I correspondence to pass to and ire." j
