Victoria has 14,000 berths _ for inimigrants boolied from the Linited King<lom"i,during the year 1914. and special efforts are to be made'to see that they are all availed of. A contemporary remarks: — Many people have -teal' in their garden pretty regularly ' the summer, but m this pleasure the man of the house has little chance of sharing. This makes it aH the more surprising that so few have discovered the charm of the Outdoor breakfast. Tlie morning ait*, is tonic: m its. fresh ness, as anyone realises when forced to turn out a little earlier than \isual. Why should Aye let even half an hour of it "run to waste? Granted that our climate is capricious, there are still many days when breakfast m the uarden would" not be merely possible, but highly enjoyable, and the great advantage of making it, a feature of home life is easily seen. Xeithe*r rain nor cold wind will upset plans where none are made. On fine mornings breakfast is taken m the garden, bn others m the house. There is the situation irt.a nutshell. . .-..'. .',,.. Some time ago the Scientific American offered prizes for the three - best essays .on the teiv greatest patentable inventions of the past twenty-five years. No two competitors, it appears, seiebted the same set of inventions, r 7ljv fact, only one invention, that of wireless telegraphy, was conceded unaninidusiy to belong* to the group lof the ten greatest. The vote on aeroplanes was almost unanimous ; t but beyond that there was no unanimity. The conditions of ■ the contest stated that greatness would be measured m terms of practical success and general usefulness *" to _ mankind ; the competitors were limited '■ to mjachines, devices, and discoveries commercially introduced m the lasttwenty -five years, and special emphasis was laid on the fact that the inventions must be patentable, although not necessarily patented. The following twelve inventions secured the highest number of votes, the number printed Rafter each representing a percentage of the votes pi yen : — Wireless telegraphy, 97: aeroplane. 75; X-Ray machine. 74 ; automobile, 66; motion pictures, 63; reinforced concrete, 37 ; phonograph, 37 ; incandescent electric lamp. 35 f steam turbine, 34; electric car, 34; calculating machine, 33 : internal combustion engine, 33.

Take •i It To OrmohcTs MURTON'S DIP THIS preparation mixes easily with cold water. NO DEPOSIT IN THE BATH. It does not disturb the natural lay of the wool nor interfere with tho yolk. In addition to its thorough reliability as an insecticide, it possesses remarkable stimulative properties, by which the growth ofthe^wool |is much improved. It is the most effective and enduring dip, and the easiest to use. Among the N.Z. clips sold m the London wool sales, the "Hiku," "Bee,''' and l iti" brands always occupy a very prominent position. For the season 1909 these clips realised up to ls 3£d, Is 3d, and ls 2£d "her lb respectively for greasy crossbred. In 1910 the prices received for these brands were ls 4_d, Is 3_d, and ls 3d. The Dip which has been used for years on the flocks from which these wools come is Mur ton's. Sheepfarmers who use this Dip can rely upon their nocks being free from ■ parasites, and the wool m the best possible condition. It will be remembered that this invention was awarded first plaice at the largest trials ever held, wheij. it received highest points for "Condition! of wool at shearing," "Most effectual -destroyer of parasites," "Most effectual- preventive from re-infection/ "Effect ou sheep at dipping."
