A Christchurch resident recently while eating his breakfast egg, found in it, between the yolk and the white, a grain of wheat . embedded. Foreign bodies are not uncommonly found in eggs, but this wheat grain was most appropriately brought to light by r R. McPherson, manager of tne Wheat Purchase Board. The grain was a little blackened, but was otherwise not apparently damaged at all.

A village that can possibly make a good claim to be the smallest in the world, is described in a letter giving an account of, a tour in Wales which Mrs F. M. Orchard, of Christchurch, has received from her son, Mr Neil Orchard. of Hendon, London. The village is called Mydrim, and it consists of a public house, a store, and a blacksmith’s forge. No mention is made even of a petrol bowser. Mr Orchard states that he cannot see why it deserves a name.

The lake-bed at Tangoio (Hawkes Bay), which was raised in the 1931 earthquake and has since been drying out, is this year being ploughed and cropped. Most of the land is in the hands of the Maoris who are now busy planting maize, kumeras, and potatoes. Altogether about 150 acres were made available by the earthquake, and about half of this area is being cropped this year. A reporter was told that the Maoris are planting more potatoes in the Tangoio district this year than ever previously.
