. POTATO GROWERS HAVE s BEEN VERY UNFORTUNATE £ Potato growers at Governor’s Bay and Teddington have been rather tm- * fortunate with their early crops this year, as they are usually able to put new potatoes on the market for Carnival Week and obtain about sixpence . per pound. It is expected that it will r be another fortnight before potatoes . can be dug. This will mean a big loss - to growers who have put in a bigger i- acreage this year than previously. - Potatoes from the Bays are generally 1 the earliest local potatoes on the market. - Concert for Church Funds. A concert which should attract a . large attendance will be held in the St 1 2 Saviour’s Parish Hall, West Lyttelton, . t to-morrow evening in aid of the St ■- Saviour’s Church Fund. A varied pro- ; i gramme will include elocutionary items • s by the pupils of Miss Lucy Cowan, < f vocal numbers by Miss Millicent Jen--3 nings, solo dances by Miss Dorothy White’s pupils, and an exhibition of . . club swinging by Mr Pegg, of the ' - Y.M.C.A. ‘
