CATTLE CRUSH.—Mr Jack Acland, of Mount Peel, is shown with an interesting crush which has been set up in' the station cattle yards. It was built to the specifications of Messrs John and Mark Acland, who saw crushes of a similar type during a recent visit to the United States. By the operation of a lever on the left hand side the crush can be speedily opened or closed with the mechanism locking in a slotted tooth section. One of the advantages of the crush is that the race can be left wide open when the crush is not in use. A body press can be used in conjunction with the crush.
