LAMBS IN KITCHENS
PROTECTION FROM COLD „ SEVERE CANTERBURY WEATHER [Per United Press Association.] ASHBURTON, September 11. The severe storm which swept Ashburton county during the past two days accounted for the death of many lambs, but the losses are not heavy. Lambing is in full swing in most districts, and conditions have seldom been worse. Farmers, however, took early precautions and are now busy transporting the new lambs to their houses and sheds. In some homesteads, up to thirty lambs are being cared for in the kitchens.
The snow has been general hut light. The worst feature of the storm is the heavy, bitterly cold wind with sleet. Little snow is lying on the plains, but the hill country is deeply coated.
