A week of fine days, followed by hard frosts, has been experienced. Although the weather enables the fanner to proceed with spring ploughing, harrowing, etc., the frosts are not welcome, as they cut the growth of grass which is badly needed at, present. Top-dressing has been commenced and as feeding out still continues the farmer is busy from daylight till dark. The usual weekly ping pong evening was held in the hall on Monday night, there being a normal attendance. Supper was served and play continued till nearly midnight.
