Every explosive in this class and every explosive ingredient thereof shall be so thoroughly purified and be otherwise of such character as to satisfy a test known as the "Abel heat test," and specified in the reports of the Departmental Committee appointed by the British Home Office on the 21st April, 1909, to report on the standardization of this test.

8UIIIIABY FOR THE MONTH OF MAY, 1914. Anticyclones were in existence over the Dominion between the 4th, and 7th, and 23rd, and 28th, and during these two periods fair weather was experienced in most parts of the country, with clear frosty nights in the South and in the inland districts of the North Island. The weather for the rest of the month was unsettled owing to various disturbances which passed over or in the close proximity to the Dominion. On the let a rapidly moving depression passed in the South and the winds changed to southerly, increasing to ga.le force at widely separated places. Ngarnawahia, in the Waikato, reported an exceptionally severe south-west gale which did considerable damage to property. On the 8th the centre of a small disturbance passed in the vicinity of Cook Strait, and this was followed by a depression which prevailed in the Nort.h between the Sib a.nd 13th. This latter disturbance and also an extensive cyclone which was centred off East Cape between the 16th a.nd 22nd accounted for heavy re.ins in the Ee.st Coe.st districts of the North Island, and cold south-easterly weather genera.lly. On the 17th, 18th, e.nd 19th, owing to the continuous heavy rams, floods occurred in many of the Gisborne a.nd Hawke's Be.y rivers. At Patunamu, Wairoa, the extraordinary fall of 13·05 inches fell on the 17th, and for the four days 16th to the 19th 29·611 inches were measured, while the total for the month was 38·31 inches. Although this disturbance had not decreased in intensity on the 20th, the presence of another low-pressure area to the southward of New Zea.land had e. nentra.lizing effect, and a brief improvement in con­ ditions was experienced, but this was followed by boisterous unsettled weather again on the night of the 20th. From the 29th to the close of the month squa.lly weather ruJed, with the development of an extensive westerly low-pressure area. About this date some heavy rains occured in the northern districts ; on the 29th Kaitaie. reported 5·30 inches, W ekaweke. 4·88 inches, and at Ruatoki 2 inches fell in one hour on the 30th. The aggregate total rainfall for the month was below the average in the West Coast and in the extreme south of the South Island, and also in the central portion of the North Island, but elsewhere it was in excess of the average.
