It is a significant thing (says the Adelaide .'Southern Cross ') that no Australasian Premier *at present is anything more than a plain Mister. There are Mr. Deakin, Mr. Kidston, Mr. Carrufchers, Mr. Price, Mr. Bent, Mr. Moore, Mr. Erans, and the late Mr. Seddon. In the dd days knights in political circles were very plentiful, but nowadays it seems to be considered unlucky to accept a prefix. Even the Agents-General are nearly all untitled men, and that is quite unique. Much encouragement (says the ' Press ') will be given to the fruit-growing and canning industries in Mew Zealand by the success that has been attained at the London Horticultural Society's Show by the exhibits from Frimley (Hastings) and Nelson, which were awarded silver medals. In regard to the Frimley exhitfcts, the fruit from the well-known Hawke's Bay orchard and factory is well-known on the. New Zealand market for its general excellence. .At Frimley, situated on the fertile Heretaunga Plains, about a quarter of an hour's drive from Hastings, the canning factory employs a very large number of hands, as many as 175 (picking and earning) being on the " books one month last season. A number of men will be employed during the winter making tins for next season's output. Last season close upon 200,000 tins were made on the premises, and for next.*, season about a quarter of a million tins will be required for canning the peaches, plums, pears, tomatoes, greengages, quinces, peas, etc., .produded in the. orchard. At Friniley. during the last - fruit season nearly 200 acres were under peaches, and in three years' time it is contemplated that the orchard will produce a thousand -•'" 'tons of this- fruit ; alone, tn ■ 1908 it is .hoped tpg^Jiave 280 acres .in:-, peaches at Frimley.
