BOORABBIN, September 28.

The new Government tank, which will have a capacity of five and a quarter million gallons, is nearly completed by the contractors, Mesers Atkins and Law, of Perth. The tank is a splendid piece of work, and the Government are taking in every available catchment. The contract will take another two months to complete. There is now 13ft. of water, in the old tank.

The weather is hot and sultry.
