In some cases considerable damage has been done to standing crops in the Nelson district by that unique native bird the pukeko. A resident of the district says that lie lately saw a five-acre field of wheat in which great destruction had been wrought. When living in their native haunts these birds form look-out stations by bending over the tops of the raupo or rushes and weaving them into a platform where one bird will remain on watch for hours at a time. In this wheat paddock the same thing had been done and hundreds of these platforms bad been constructed, with results that can be well imagined, though the amount of grain actually oaten did not appear to be very great. It is expected that the coming shooting season will be ail open one for pukeko, and farmers affected hope that their numbers will bo considerably lessened, as they are altogether too plentiful. rsu you BELIEVE IIST A LIGHT BREAKFAST 9 Are you one of those who find a light breakfast more beneficial to health?
