SALE OF HAWKE’S BAY CLIPS. We are informed that at the wool salee held in Napier during February last top prices ■were realised for Mr. John A. Macfarlnne’s ewe clip from Ben Lornond Station, the figure being 9-iJd per lb for Romney Cross; and at the January sales the Lincoln-merino ewe wool from Mr. McLean’s 'Glencoe Estate made what was probably the record price for ewe wool sold in New Zealand during last season —i.e., Is per lb. The gentlemen above mentioned attribute the splendid condition of their clips to the absolute immunity from ticks and other parasites enjoyed by their sheep during the previous winter and spring, due to their having been dipped in Quibell’s Powder Dip in the autumn. Every sheep-owner is respectfully invited to test Quibell’s Powder Dip on level terms against any other brand he fancies, and allow himself to be guided by results.

In cases of acute Bronchitis or Influenza you can safely rely on TUSSICURA giving immediate relief. An interesting discovery has been made at Rona Bay, Wellington. Some of the Eastbourne borough workmen were engaged in forming a footpath and a water channel when they unearthed a totara log about 50ft long and 3ft in diameter, which it is supposed had been washed up by the tide long ago when what is now the main road was the sea beach. The timber is in such an excellent state of preservation that the borough authorities arc having it split into fencing posts.
