"The fact of the matter is that the Eastbrook people, and the people about the Masonic, want to improve their property." Such was the opinion expressed by the chairman of the Waitotara County Council at the meeting this morning, when a letter was read from the Aramoho Progressive Association re the proposed .new bridge.

At the Waitotara County Council meeting this morning a communication was received from the Agricultural Department, stating that African boxthorn had been declared a noxious growth under the third schedule. The effect of the declaration is that the Council may, if it thinks desirable, at any time enforce the eradication of the boxthorn. Since the attack on the furze shelter hedges a few years ago by a disease, boxthorn hedges have greatly supplanted furze hedges, and should the Council put their powers into action the result, would certainly be disastrous on a large number of farms.
