ARBOR DAY.

Though we have little sympathy withtha continual number of holidayswhich disorganise business and serveno useful purpose, we#believe ArborDay is a holiday worthy of univer-sal recognition. It is a day with adefinite purpose, and we think theday. well worthy of /o^ervance, astending*:jij> advance the >. great work ofafforestation.~ We believe it shouldbecome the most injportant ruralhoi-idayrand to attain this end itmightbe made a field-day for rural education. The celebration of the daycould be managed, by the Agricultur-al and Pastoral Associations, or theFarmers'*Unions, in conjunction wi|ththe school committees, and the schoolgrounds could be utilised as the cel-ebrationpoint. Though the periodofthe year wouldnot too/ too appropri-ato for displaying the practical sideof elementary agricultural work, yetthe time would be suitable "to farm-ersJfor visiting tho school grounds,taking parijoplia^ ceremony appro-priate to the day,/and assisting as aworking bee in improving thegrounds. It might also be made aprize-giving day in connection withtho agricultural work of the schools.AnotherJdea which is worthy of con-sideration is the appointment of com-mittees of agriculturists to net? withschool committees inorder to- draw1

up comprehensiveschemes for the con-duct oi experimentalplots m theschool grounds in connection with.el-ementary agriculture^ and in beauti-

j tying the grounds in a way whichwould reflect credit to tho variousdistricts. As New Zealand is depen-dent:for its prosperity on the agri-cultural resources of the colony it is;palpable that the work of rural edu-cation^shpuld bo advanced by everypossible means by school committeesand farmers alike. Of all industriesthe one where science-can-be of thegreatest service is. undoubtedly thefanning vocation. If the rising gen-eration of New Zealanders is to hold jits own.against the numerous com-petitors in the markets of the world,,rural education will have to toe givengreater prominence incountry schoolsthan has hitherto been the case.Oth-er means of formulating'a fittingprogram for arural education field-day than those referred to will read-ily (Suggest

"themselves, but enough

bas^Jbeen said to sfipw that ArborDay could,be made-something morethan a mere name, and that it couldbe easily developed intothe greatestcountry holiday of the year.

TB PUKE 6, TAURANGA 6Th« annual inter-Union football

match hotween the above representa-tives was played in the Domain onSaturday, in tho presence of a largonumber of spectators, and resultedina draw— each side scoring six points.Tho home team's scoro was made upof two tries, whilst the visitors'score comprised a goal from a penal-ty and a try. Rain fell the wholetime while the match was in progressand as the ball soon becamegreasy,a good expositionof Rug-by was outof the question. The teams lined outji« undtu*, the game being under thocontrol of Mr A. Haua, whogave theutmost satisfaction t

—Tc Puke (maroon).— Back, Benncr ;

Ahrec-quarters, Tanner, JJall, R- Wil-liams; five-eighth,Mc^wen;half, A.Ryburn ; wings, J. Wallace, W. Har-butt ;forwards, M. Ryburn, Hall, O'-Neill,Henwood, Taraiti, King and J.McCauley.

Tauranga (blue and gold).— Back,Mararo; three-quarters, Asher, Mc-Leod, J. Ririnui ; five-eighth, Cullen;half, Cooney ; wings, Teague, Trean-or; forwards, M. Uirinui, H. Ririnui,Keno, T. McLeod, (lock), Chadban,Tv and Bridger.

M. Ryburn captained Te Fuke andE. Cullen the home team.

The game dues not require anylengthy description for tho reasonthavlt was but a mud-scramblebe-tween"the forwards, livened up by anoccasional dash -by the backs, or alittle attractive open play by Te iPu-ke. Immediately after the kick-offthe maroons commenced to attack,and the hopes of the To Puke sup-porters ran high. Th« leather cameout well on some occasions but therewas little chance of getting it cleanaway. For some time Te Puke hadTauranga in their own twenty-fiveand strenuous efforts were made toscore, but the dtftfencc of Cullen wastoo sound, and time out of numberh« saved hisside. From a line outTo Puke secured and M. Hyburn in-itiated a dribbling rush intho horn*team's twenty-five* but off-side playon the part of Cooney gave the tna-

toons a shot at goal in a fairly goodposition. C. Ball was entrusted withth« kick ami landed a beauty amidstgreat applause.

T« Puke ... 3Taurange ... 0

Tho homo team now got to work,and a loose forward rush, in whichChadban, Tv and Keno participated,brought play well inside the visitor'stwensy-five where it hung for sometime. From a loose scrum Cooneygot possessionand mado a bold dashfor the line and transferred to Cullen,when right on the goal line, and thoTauranga skipper handed it on toTreanor who scored a clever try, nogoal resulting.

Te Puke 3Tauranga 3

Tho homo forwards got going bet-ter at this stage and the maroons'efforts to remove play to the otherend of the field were thus nullified.Tauranga still kept on the aggressiv»and from a loose rush in To Puke'stwenty-five Cullen secured and a nicebout of passing amongst the homebacks ended in Ashor getting over theline. J. Hirinui failed to Convert.

Sorao good rushes by To Puke werereplied to and the visitors could notpass the good defence offered by theh«mc team and the spell ended :

—Tauranga ... ... ..* 6Te Puko v. ... ... 8

The second spell provided very siilar play to that-in the first. C. MeLeod took Mararo's place at fulwhenhalf way through the spell andthe change benefittted the home ream.Towards the end of the gameTe Pu-ke made things more interesting andsorao splendid forward rushes ensued.From a line-out at centre, the visit-or's forwards broke away and carri-ed play well inside Tauranga'a terri-tory, where the home backs (Cullenexcepted), made some disastrousblunders, and Allan Ryburn snappedup,- the leather and dived over the linoand scored. The attempt at goalproved a failure.

Taurangu ... ... ».. 6Te Puke ... 6

Tauranga were now making greatefforts to add another score to theircredit, but Te Puke were not to bedenied and kept the home teambackby good play. From a scrum inneu-tral territory the ball went out andthe whistle sounded time with thescore:

—Tauranga ... ... ... '6To Puko

- ... ... ..: 6For Te Puke W. Tanner. C. Ball,

McEwen and A. Ryburn (backs), andM. Ryburn, Hall,Henwood and Tar-aiti (forwards) were about the best,although the others wore very littleinferior. Of the home team M^od,Cullen, Cooney, Asher and J. lliri-nui (backs), played well and allseem-ied to be quite at home in the mud.In the forwards Bridget,' T, McLeod, jChadban and Tea-gue played well.Messrs I.

Kuku filledthe vacancy during the second spell.E...Smith captained the visitors andHornc the home 'team. Mr H. Tan-ner carried out the duties of refereein a uipst satisfactory manner.

THE GORSE NUISANCE.(To the Editor.)

St.— lv the interests of Taurangaand the Bay of Plenty district as awhole, is it not about time that rhelocal authority s, to wit, the TaurangaBorough Couuciland the County Council, made a st*rt to abate the gorgenuisance. This theyhave power to dounder the"Noxious Weeds Act,"and1believe theGovernment have placedaninspector under the Act, at their dis-posal. It could be done by degreeswithout inflictingany hardships on thesettlers.

At thepresent time the presence ofsomuch gorse in the district is doingmore to preveut settlement than anything else. People are arriving hereby every boat, from all parts of thecolony, with a vi«-w to taking uplandand settling here, but 3out of every 4are scared away by the gorse. lamconstantly havingsuch remarks as "ohyes,Ilike your climate, theland isallright, if properly worked, and thesceneryno doubt is charming, but oh,the gorse." Only this week, a wellknown Wairarapa settler, told me bewould have nohesitation in takingupland and settling here if it wasn't forthe gorse,andadded, insteadof callingtheplace Tauranga, it would bemoreappropriate tocall itGorseTown. Nodoubt the princpal offenders are theGovernment, and the natives,but thereis a way of getting at both. At anyrate a startmight be made in the Bor-ough. We have anew MayorandanewCouncillor,andif they woulduse theirinfluence in this direction, they wouldbe doingan immense amount of goodto thedistrict, and largely assistingtopromote settlement.Ihave every faith in the futureprosperity of the Bay of Plenty dis-trict, (orIshould notbehere), andam

convinced thatno part ofMewZealandhas so many*natural advantages, but,Sir, it requires the whole heartedenergy and supportof thelocal bodies,backed up by the settlers, apart fromlocal jalousies, to make it what itought to be, viz., a thriving farmingdistrict,well supplied with dairy fac-tories,and with the fruit industry welldeveloped. Every acre of land oughtto be brought into cultivation, andmade toproduce something morepro-fitable than gone. Bheep farmingought tobegoneintomore extensively,andin course of time, weought tohavea Bay of Plenty freezing works. Nodoubt itwill all come in time, but thetime might be hastened very consider-ably, if a little energy were displayed.%nd, Sir, in conclusionIwould add,I'aurangaought to become oneof themost popular health resorts of NewZealand, as it undoubtedly possessesthebest climate and most lovely scen-ery.—l am,etc.,

Ho was the only officer who wentout originallyto"theCrimea with hisregiment to return to England. Healso saw much hard service in theIndian Mutiny, and was repeatedlythanked.

Field-Marshal Sir Evelyn Wood wasSir William's subaltern in India,andthe fornjer once described Sir Willi-am as one of the bravest soldiers heever met. His war decorations in-cluded tho Crimean medal and claspSj,French and Turkish decorations, andthe Indian Mutiny medal and clasps.At a.banquet inhis honour at Kirk-

The Division of Oceania.A French newspaper, published in

Noumea, calls attenjion to the increasing of Germany to de-velop itscoinmerc«i not enly wi;h Ana-ralia, bat throughout the islands ofthe Pacific, The writer anticipatestrouble before longin conieqnencs o!themanner iff which Germany iscarry-ingoatits work. Spscial:reference i*made to the way iv which it seeks to*xtend its trade with Australia, andcomplaint is.made that whilst itex-pects toenjoy all the advantages 'oftradein Commonwealth ports,it deniesequalfights to British v ssels visitiugthe inlands under German' control. Itwould appear from the article 1thatGermany has long' cast envious eyesupon the New Hebrides. It is saidthat the gocd understanding existingbetween England and France has pre-vented an attempt, which, had itsuc-ceeded, would have made the NewHebrides asecond Morocco. The Ger-mans of Samoa,it is alleged,plo'ted todispute with theFrench the ownershipof the land surrounding the magnificent bayofPortSandwich (Jfallicola),the most coveted corner of the archi-pelago. Happily, gays the writer, thefforts of the Anglo-French Commis-

sion, which met in London last Feb-ruary,have rendered German interfer-ence in the New Hebrides impowble.Bat itis Added that the greatquestionof the twentieth century will be thedivisionof Oceania.
