competed at the grubber trial, obtained a silver medal for general excellence at last Christchurch Show.

Planet Jr. Iju'i.k.ments. (D. Thomas, Agent.) The Planet Jr. Implements ure so well known that it is almost urn oces=ary to dwell upon their excellence of manufac ture. Tim yenr several new implements •were introduced. The combined hill and drill seeder, and double wheel hip, plough and m-.l'iivator has "been grosstly improved for 1902, and has been brought to a point oi such wi'ie usefulness and such perfection at work that it can scarecly be recommended too highly. It combines in a single, con venient implement, a capital hill-dropping seeder, a continuous row-seeder, an admir able single-wheel hoe, a cultivator and .a plough. Its work as a seeder is marvellous. It can be thrown out of gear and the feed stopped by simply raising the handles. For use as a cultivator, the drill parts are en tirely removed, and the tool frame substi tuted, by taking out a single bolt; it is then a perfect single-wheel hoe with an unequal led variety of tools, and a rapid change frame, with side extension for hoe ing both sides of the row at one passage. When in use as a seeder, the cut-off stops the flow of seed instantly without interfer ing with the adjustment, and can be operated either by hand or foot from between the handles. It is certainly a use ful implement. The single-wheel • com bined hill and drill seeder, an implement somewhat similar to the above mentioned, is intended for gardeners who have a large enough acreage in crops for a double wheel hoe to be used to good advantage, and who prefer not to have a separate seeder and wheel hoe also. The double wheel hoe, rake, plough, and cultivator is reckoned to be the best tool in the world for the onion grower, and for every grower of crops from drill seed. The single-wheel hoe, plough, and cultivator is lighter than the double, and does almost the same variety of work, although in a different way. A combined seed and fertiliser drill was among the number,- this will sow seed and fertilise at one operation.

The Vacuum Oil Company, (D. Thomas, Agent,) had a stand of their famous oils for engines, threshers, ploughs, etc, and

Bowron Bros., {(D. Thomas, Agent,)

exhibited a collection of leather belting.

Mb D. Thomas showed samples of Brake's Boi. Fly Remedy, j McDougall's Sheep Dip, Berger's Branding Oil; also a collection of seeds. Cooper and Duncan, Ltd. As successors to the Southland Imple ment Company in sofar as the firm are con cerned Messrs Cooper and Duncan exhibit ed for the first time in Ashburton. A 15 j coulter Colonial drill (gold medal) was one ef the features of their exhibition. It shows three different kinds of turuip feed on one spindle. The next new implement worthy of special mention was an improved disc ridger with horse-hoe, turnip thinner and puller attachment. Not the least im portant item was a corn crusher of colonial manufacture. A colonial clod-crusher and pulveriser was exhibited for the first time in New Zualand at the Timaru Show. The \ judges there held high opinions regarding I this new addition to the already large stock of implements turned out by this now well known and popular firm. Since the new firm have taken over the implement busi ness of the Southland Implement and En gineering Company, they have taken every care to turn out all classes of farm imple ments in the best possible way, combined with excellence of workmanship and finish. In addition to the above mentioned, there was a large assortment of .ploughs, harrows, cultivators, seed sowers, mowers, binders, hay-rakes, side-delivery reapers and other implements with all the latest improve ments. In future the head-quarters of this firm will be at their new premises in Col- j ombo Street, Christchurch, where all the implements will be manufactured. P. and ; D. Duncan, Ltd. This old established firm is ngain to the fore with a well finished collection of some 15 implement', including their patent tur nip and rape sower, which is without doubt the simplest and most reliable feed iv the market. They also exhibit the special " Giant" tined cultivator, with which they competed for the association prize at a field j trial on Monday last. The firm also ex hibited Church's patent wire coiler, which I is so simple a piece of mechanism that a ' man and a b>y can lay out and pick up as ' much barb wire in one hour as two men can ; do in the ordinary way in four hours, and i what is more, make a better job of it.' The coiler is mounted ou high wheels, and can bo drawn with ease. This firm also exhibits a piece of Holland's patent elevator chain. Amongst the other exhibits are a new steel framed disc harrow, which has 'now b,een severely tested' and proved itself the Strongest {machine of its kind. Included in the exhibit are spoon and force feed broad cast servers, double and single fur row lever ploughs, broad frame disc harrow, farm dray, Cambridge roller, self feeder for pojpbiiie.j $wo row ridge drill cultivators and harrows. Attached to the Giant cultivator is a set of steel tripod harrows specially ad? opted for working twitch. Altogether the exhibit shows that the firm are keeping apace with the lines, and can supply their clients with the latest improvements for cultivator of the soil.

Booth Mac Donald & Co., Ltd,

were, as usual, well represented, They had a complete line of their well known double furrow ploughs, consisting of light, medium, and heavy. The finish of the ploughs is excellent. They also had some samples of i the Syracuse ploughs on exhibition: These are light American ploughs, very suitable for garden work, etc. For the first time , they exhibited one of Messrs Jack and Son's May bole lime distributors. This has been used by Mr Peache, of Mount Somers, and has been found to work excellently, and no doubt many of our farmers who have cold land will seize this opportunity of examin ing an implement which will be of inesti mable service to them. The lime used in this machine comes from Mount Somers. There were also on show disc harrows of several descriptions, including the well known "Steel Queen/ and a superior" flexible disc cultivator. This firm also exhibited their " White" oil engine. This is a six-horse power portable, and was employed supplying power to a Massey-Harriß binder in motion, and also to a Booth and Mac Donald corn crusher. This particular engine was pur chased from the firm some four mouths ag-o^by Mr' W. Wijson, :of. Anama, "arid sSice" then 1 haH cut some • hundreds 'of fctari of-chaff. It is one of the most simple 6il engines that have been placed on the mar ket, and can be started at a minute's nofcica. There is no .doubt but that oil engines wilj be as necessary on a farm as is k'isßsp'ar anil joinder. A", Carlyje" wool? pr'eas 'was' there, 'and attracted a fair amount of attention, this particular press having been purchased by the worthy Pre3ident of the A. and P. Association, Mr Thos. Stone, of Westerfield. Different kinds of tine harrow?, and many other -implements too numerous to particularise, including the well-known " fcteel Star windmill, which is already well and favour ably known to the Ashburton public,. went to make up a first-class'exhibit of the many thipg? in the implement for whyph< this grrd'is fapaous, '■'

Mb E. W. P-Aau

exhibited his well-known water race clenner and patent fencing* dropper, the latter of is oosr ps? 4op lnnjiy 13.ni)? and stations in this and oilier districts. J Andrews and Beaven. Messrs Andrews and Beaven are old ex hibitors at our Show. They have always tield a high place in the estimation of far- Ifer-",' >fi4' always' j?i\l. $hjs year their jsptry ir&s not sp large as in previouss years, but comprised of a quartette of indispen sable farm implements. Their " Common wealth " chaffcutter was there, one of the best that is placed on the market. The hand-power chaffcutter, portable crusher, and grain grinder completed their list.

I MASSET HARRIS COMPANY. : -(Friedlander Bros., Limited, local repre sentatives.) The Massey-Harris Co., Ltd, v.\-, 0 claim to be the largest makers of l>arvt<stiii" machinery under the British O-.g, exhibited ja full Jme oi their well-known 'Harvesting , j aud agikulluml machinery on Use Ashhm" ton .-how ground. Their new wide-nixjn reaper and binder, carrying ii,e ]utsi improvements direct from !!><.■ factfuy, was shown in motion. Wu wito iuviled' to inspect the main frame, which is tho foundation of a reaper and binder, and we must confess it is a master piece of strength. There nre so few nuts and bolts that it almost looks liko ona sohil piece of steel throughout. '■ lv- avoinir« farmer has enough to do without study ing mechanics in order to ad..ust or re move parts of his binder. Tho Com pany appreciate this, and have endeavoured above all things to keep thoir implements simple. The spokes and rim of the gr.-iin wheel are made of steel. It is fitted with

3 roller bearings, and has a removable sleeve. ! , The outside divider is very strongly trussed j and angle steel is used throughout. The . elevator chain at the rear of the Massey- Harris binder rims on four sprockets and j: an idler only. The sprockets for the ele . vator chain ail revolve in the same direction , on the Massey-Havris binder. Tho chain i does not ge inside one sprocket and outside . the other, thus little or no Motion is . created. Roller and ball bearings add to ; the expense of manufacture, but, proper'y applied, they greatly couduce to easy run ning. The Massey-Harris Company place roller and ball bearings in their implements wherever they will lend to reduce friction. I The patented floating elevators are features not to be overlooked, and conduce much to the easy working: of the Massey-Harris binders. The canvasses opens and close automatically to handle the heavy laid down crop without choking, and close down to take up small thin crops without waste. The knotter is a very important part of a reaper and binder. It must be simple, effective, and economical in twice. The Massey-Harris knotter has very few parts, and no coil springs or little rollers; the whole work is done by simple cogs; this does away with all friction parts, which are so uncertain in action, and the placing of the knotter bill close down to the bottom of the breast plate leaves no sJack in the sheaf, consequently, is a great saving in twine on every sheaf bound. The new Massey-Harris binders are fitted with a levelled shoot steel bottom in one piece, and is rivetted and reinforced with angle steel bills for strength's sake. This will°be much appreciated by the farmers of the Canterbury plains when cutting over stony country. There is a splendid device for taking off the end thumb of the cross shaft, and a very simple way to keep the bevel gears nicely meshed up. The main drive sprocket, the sprocket on the cross shaft and bevel gear, are all enlarged, giving a ' little more speed aud, reducing the friction [on the chain and sprockets. A now auto matic chain tightner is a splendid improve ment. Another new feature is the folding dividers. By simply unfastening a thumb latch, both inside and outside dividers instantly fold back, and allows the binder to be transported through narrow gates to six feet ten inches wide. This does away with the bending of dividers in gate posts, The Massey-Harris new 7. Mower we are informed had a very severe test in the big crops of clover in Canada last year. The crops were frightfully tangled, and were more like beds of trailing viaea. Tho cutter bar can be raised on a lovel ten inches from the ground. This enables tho operator to raise the cuttiug apparatus over obstacles by means of a foot lever. On account of the wide space between the wheels no mat ter at what angle the'axle or frame may be when working on hill side, the Massey- Harris cutter bar leaves a uniform and even stubble. The frame may be at an angle of 40 degrees, bixt the bar still adapts itself to the necessity. The knives go out of ge'ir automatically when the outer shoe is raised three feet from the ground, but not till then. By means of a coupling- bar, adjust able at both ends, the machine after years of use can be squared so that all the work ing parts run as when new. The gearing is very simple and powerful, and is equipped with roller aud ball bearings. The drive wheels have four pawls and 27 cogs each, the consequence is, you do not need to back your horses before starting to cut when in the crop, the knives operate as soon as the wheels begin to revolve. A wide xake with a frame that will not sag has long been the demand. The demand is now supplied by the Massoy Har. is Company in their 2:5 and 30 tooth all steel rakes. The refutation of the Massey Harris drill for sowing all kinds of grain, grass seeds, and turnips, or rape seeds, and fertilism is well established. The machine is built of angle stud with an I. beam across the centre, making it very strong. The gearing is simplicity itself. The hoes are a n>ce narrow shape making easy draught and good cover. All their other lines, i.e., culti vators, harrows, and ploughs, were critical ly and favourably received by the farmers. These implements occupy a high position in the farmers' estimation. The farmers of this district are well catered for by this company. They keep their own representa tive, Mr Bickman, and a couple of experts, to attend to the starting, etc., of their ma chine's, and also carry "a very large stock of extra parts at their local agents, Messrs Friedlander Bros, Twitch Eradicator. Messrs Gr. Mcßae, Denis McKendry, Greo. Body, J. S. Bland and Daniel McKendry give £5 5s for the best implement to eradicate twitch. The subject of the triaL of the various implements was reported in our issue of Tuesday. The following is the result of the judge's decision:— P. and D. Duncan, improved " Giant " Cultivator, 48 points 1 Massey-Harris Co., 17-tine Cultivator, 45 points ... ... .. ..2 N.Z. Loan and Mercantile Agency Co., agent for Walter A.

London, Nov. 3 The steam collier St Re^ulus collided off Dungeness with the Spanish steamer Enero, striking her abaft the engine-room. The St Eegulus continued to steam for ward after the collision, with a view of keeping her bow in the gap made in the side of the Enero, so as to enable the crew of the sinking steamer to escape. The Spaniards became too terrified to avail themselves of the opportunity, however, and the Enero went down, only three out of twenty-five being rescued.
