I think it is about time the department inspected some of the samples that are coming on the Dunedin market, as I bought a sack of potatoes and fully onefourth of them are diseased or too green to use. It is about time_ that the wives here formed themselves into an association to protect their interests, —I am, etc.. Housewife.
