COMPLETE specifications relating to the undermentioned applications for Letters Patent have been accepted, and are open to public inspection at this office. Any person may, at any time within two months from the date of this Gazette, give me notice in writing of opposition to the grant of any such patent. Such notice must set forth the particular grounds of objection, and be in duplicate. A fee of 10s. is payable thereon.

No. 28387.—6th September, 1910.—Peter Martin, Jun., Joiner, and Frank Humphries, Joiner, both of Granity, New Zealand. Improved means for lubricating the axles and bearings of coal-skips and the like.*

Claim.—(1.) Means for the purpose described, consisting of an arm pivoted to the rail adapted to be engaged and depressed by the flange of a wheel on the rail, a lever connected with such arm and adapted to be lifted by the depression of the arm, a brush upon the free end of such lever, and a lubricant-well into which the brush dips when the lever is lowered, substantially as specified. (Specification, 3s. 3d.)

[NOTE.—Here follows one other claim.]

[NOTE.—Here follows one other claim.]

No. 28500.—28th September, 1910.—Alphonse Octave Goulet, of 125 Victoria Street, Auckland, New Zealand. Improved peanut-roaster.*

Claims.—(1.) In peanut-roasters of the class described, a drum made of gauze or perforated material mounted within the roasting-chamber, means for feeding peanuts to the drum and for discharging them therefrom and heating burner situated within the chamber upon one side of the perforated drum, substantially as specified.

No. 28546.—5th October, 1910.—Peter Aron Nikolai-son, of Whetukura, New Zealand, Farmer. A double-furrow reversible disc plough.*

Claim.—(1.) In a double-furrow disc plough, the combination of a toothed quadrant attached to the pulling-bar or beam with a sliding rack-bar, the teeth of which engage with such quadrant and also with tooth quadrants attached to disc centres whereby such discs may be reversed together by turning the pulling-bar or beam to a reverse position so that the pulling-bar or beam and both discs are in a proper position for reverse ploughing without having to turn the plough-body. (Specification, 3s. 9d.)

[NOTE.—Here follow four other claims.]

No. 28577.—13th October, 1910.—Robert Gerald Ralph, of Huntly, New Zealand, Engineer. An improved construction of rat-trap.*

Extract from Specification.—According hereto, a trap is made of two pieces of wire, steel wire being used for a main frame and spring arm, and iron or brass wire for a trigger. As constructed for catching rabbits, the main frame has a pointed end whereby the trap is held upright at the mouth of a burrow by sticking the said end into the ground. The other end of the frame is curled into a bow, from which arises the spring arm, the end of which is vertical and has a shoulder or projection adapted to engage the main frame. The trigger is pivoted to the main frame by twisting the wire of which it is composed around the top of the frame and in such a manner that a cross-bar is formed above and below the frame. A tail of the trigger projects into the loop formed by the frame and spring arm in their set position. A slight push of the tail in either direction releases the spring arm from a notch in the frame, and the animal is caught between the said frame and arm. (Specification, 7s.)

[NOTE.—The above extract from the specification is inserted in place of the claims.]

No. 28594.—14th October, 1910.—Archibald Thorpe Crosner, of Te Aroha, Auckland, New Zealand, Engineer. An improved method of connecting electric wires to lampholders and the like.*

Extract from Specification.—A block of insulating material has a central hole, or two holes located near the centre, through which the wires are passed. Each wire is then independently carried upwards in a recess formed for its reception in the block, and is then turned over and downwards through a return hole to the terminal of the lamp-
