NOTES FROM THE UPLANDS.

OChe weather for the pasb two or three days has been all that could be desired for harvesting, and anyone travelling towards Methven just now cannot help noticing the large number of stacks going up m all direc tions. Near Methven township, several crops have yet to be reaped, but given fine weather for a few days, harvest will be m fall swing on all the higher lands, and good yields are expected m most cases. Ou the'Highbank estate, reaping is just finished, and stacking has commenced. Judging by the number of stacks which are going up at the present time, things should turn out batter than was anticipated after the high g*le which prevailed m the spring, and which necessitated resowing m most cases. It is pleasing to note the probability that the settlers will be rewarded for their labors, and that the yields will turn out as well at anticipated. Several good crops of turnips are growing OS the estate, and buyers of fat sheep should have no trouble m meeting their require ments later on. Several of the High hank settlers suffered considerably from the high gale of the spring, and the Settlers' Asaocia tios has been looking after the unfortunate ones by asking the Land Board for a remis sion of rent, m cases where a good deal of damage was done. On the Marawiti estate harvesting is m full awing, and stacks can be seen every where, while the prospects of the settlers m moat cases seem good. Given a few more days of flue weather the bulk of the harvest will be gathered m m this loca'ity, which shows equally well m roots, and gives generally quite ac good promise for the Suture as its neighbor Highbank.

O lypti JExtrfict. Under the distinguished patronage of His Majesty the King of Italy, as per communica tion made by the Minister for Foreign Affairs through the Consul-General for Italy, ab Melbourne, March 14, 1878. Awarded diploma at the Amsterdam Exhibition, 1883. Acknowledged by Medical Olinics and Universities all o\ Ter the Globe. There are imitations of Eucalypti Extract in tho market, products of simple distillation forming crude resinous oils, In or Jar that these crude oila may not be taken, OUR PURBI VOLATILE EUCALYPTI EXTRACT, which ia recognised by tho medical division of tho frttasiaiiGovermuout to bo of perfectly pare origin, as per information forwarded to us through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2, 1878, we state :— It ia proved by tests by the Medical Clinics of tho Universities at Bonn and Greifswald, Prussia, and reported by Dr, Sobulz, Professor of Parmacology, at Bon, and Professor Dr. Mossier, Director of the Medical Clinics at Greifswald, that only products that are saturated with oxygen and freed of aoids, resinoua and other substances, adherent to primary distillation, will develope the sanative qualities proper to the plant All crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extracts are to be classed according to the named authorities, among the turpenoinee, whioh are abandoned long since as an internal medicament. These crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extracts, are discernible :— 1 By their deficiency m puDgenb odour— which our product, the only genuine Eucalypti Extraot develops most fraely through its surplus oxygen. 2 By their alcoholic thin and mobile appear ance being reduced m specific density through the presence of acids. 3 By their taste, the result of the contracting tendency of resins and tennatea. If these crude oils, so-called eucalypti extracts, are applied by mistake iv cases of oroup, bronchitis, diphtheria, internal nflamations, dysentery, etc., the con sequences are most appalling.

The Public Most not be Gtjllkd • Doubtless readers of the Guardian have been sometimes amnsed by the way a certain firm m this town appears to copy some of our adveitisements. Trade jealousies may be pardonable m some cases, especially when big factories find that they cannot "slop" the more Intelligent, portion of the commun ity. We naver object to being imitated. We take it as a high compliment and evi dence of cur success as always "Leading." Bub is it right or fair to the public to adver tise " extension of premises on account of our well-known tailoring department," when the advertisers do not employ a single tailor or tailoress within fifty miles of Ash burton? We do not boast that we have *' the best cutter m New Zealand," etc. We never Ond it necessary to mislead the public. Mr Craighead is always pleased to welcome visitors m our cutting room personally, and to show them through our workrooms. Perhaps those who have not yet favored us With a visit are not aware of the existence of ouch a hive of local industry, where so much genuine tailoring is done on the premises. Twenty hands (only two of whom are apprentices) find constant employ mentins oar basinets m East street at present, and by consistently adhering to our motto — " Satisfaction "—we hope soon to be abla to employ more.—Okaighead and Berry mast.
