Now that the season for haymaking and harvesting is approaching and the scarcity of labour on account of the war is being felt, the Harvest Labour Committee reminds the fanner of its existence and aims. Fanners in the New Plymouth are requested to send in a note of their requirements in men, with number and approximate date, and-whilst the committee cannot give any absolute guarantee that all demands will be satisfied, yet it will bo their business to see that everything possible is done to assist the farmer to save his crops. The committee has already a list of men who are prepared to work as required. Any request for help to be sent to the secretary, Mr. E. AV. M. Lysons. Two very cannabilistic-looking brown trout were on exhibition in Messrs. \V. E. Reynolds and Co’s, window this morning. These were taken from a pool in the Waiwakaiho last night by Mr. -H. ilirbh. The biggest, which weighed about eight pounds, was a most hideous looking brute with great hooked jaws, and must have been a very old fish; in fact some anglers consider this to be one of the first fish liberated in the Waiwakaiho, some twenty or thirty years ago. A noticeable feature of both fish was their withered looking tails, a sign of very old ago. There are lish which arc much better out of the river, for no dfubt they were both cannibals and in their time probably accounted for a good number of their brethren.
