NOTICES AND ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.
We have received a letter from Hamiora Mangakahia, of Whangapoua, Auckland, but owing to its length we are compelled to hold it over for the present. Haimona Tuangau.—Your letter has been received. We shall endeavour to give you an answer in our next issue. Rahiera Erihana, of Otago, says, the Maoris of Waikouaiti have made good use of their steam wheat threshing machine, no less than than 5,222 bushels of wheat and 3,120 bushels of oats having been threshed out last month. Hoani Hakaraia, of Parewanui, writes to say that he has been subjected to great annoyance by people, both Europeans and Maoris, climbing over his fences, and cautions them that he intends to take legal proceedings against all persons so trespassing from this date. Ihaka Tamihana, of Nuhaka, East Coast, desires us to give notice that he has 5,000 6-ft. 6-in. and 7-ft. totara postsfor sale. Tamati Eeina. —Your letter received. In another column we publish a few proverbs supplied by Mr. G-. H. Davies, who with the assistance of his friends in various parts of the island, collected a large number, which will from time to time appear in the WaJca. These will no doubt, prove interesting to many of our readers, giving as they do a better insight into the every-day life of the Maori of olden time.
