COLD KILLS LAMBS
The Otaki correspondent of "The Post" advises that owing to the cold snap there has been considerable mortality among lambs. Sheep farmers in the upper reaches of the Pohangina Valley are heavy losers as a result of the wintry conditions which prevailed on Friday night and Saturday, lambs succumbing to the cold in large numbers, states the "Manawatu Times." The "Times" Awahou correspondent reports instances, one settler losing between 50 and 60, and still {mother as many as one hundred. Settlers cannot recall a more severe winter in the valley, the last bleak change coining at a most inopportune time.
