Agaiu thera was a day full of interest for Pahnorston. Perhaps the mcst tslii9rt of iuciuent was the Oollego football inatoi). Tliore wasn't the crispnets of passing, the "beatiug" of the oppo?iag ruau, the "heady" phy, that we have seen. by these two teams beforß. What there was of it retted mainly with the beaten team, and exciting as it was it didn't come up for hkill to some of the other matches of the series, Still it is the very spice of the Rugby game that one ssea in these matohes, and it is a pity we cau't S9O more of them. Close by the Dairy Conference was proceeding. , There tue Minister for Agriculture fuitlier replied to the Chairman of the Bank of New Zealand, aud kit not enough of that gentle' man's gloomy fabrio to stand alone. Oaatiou is a good thing, but the prophecies in the bank epoeoh were morbid and the facts don't justify them, Two important papers read were those of Mi H»rkness on the marketing l of dairy produce and of Mr Veale on dairy farming, Au experienced aud scientific farmer uttered a trueism on this subject the other day.

We oan quite b.-lieve that under suoh conditions the future of the dairy industry in these dietriots Will be infinitely better than any preseut. To-day we will have the celebration of the Coronation of His Most Graoious Majesty. Already the preparations are most complete. Alieaciy there has been a sheaf of Coronation honours to New Zealanders.upon which we mustcongrdtnhte the recipients. The Primo Minister oonlii have had the distinction of biing the only New Zealatider who is a baronet before, but the hereditary side of these titles involving up-keep no doubt causes he<utauoy. This time it was the special desire of His Majesty that was acceeded to. The title of Sir Jas.Carroll goes to au oxtre'mely able man, the extant of whose ability is perhaps net generally reoognised. We hope now that he has put on the panoply ofKuiglifchood Sir Jamts Will come round and give New Zealand a taste of his quality as a speaker at suitable meetings. It would remove many misapprehensions, And Sir John Findiay is •••-ly f adorn the ranks of Knight jiuv/ " •
