FARMING AND COMMERCIAL

FARMING NOTES

IN THE MANAWATU. (By “Observer.”) The month of February finds most farmers engaged in augmenting the supply of pasture available by feeding out rations of lucerne, soft turnips, and green or immature silage. At, this period of the year the growth of pasture is negligible and in most districts is not sufficient to maintain a satisfactory condition for milk production. While it is not possible even by liberal feeding of supplementary food to stimulate production, it may cheek the rate of decrease. The large dimensions of haystacks seen on most farms in the Manawatu, clearly indicate the very heavy crops grown this year. A number of ■farmers who have been engaged in farming in this district for many years have stated that the crops this year have been heavier than, for many years past, and stock will be well provided for next winter as far as hay js concerned, at least. Last winter many herds suffered from

exposure and the general condition of dairying stock at the commencement of the milking season was poor. It is, therefore, advisable that dairying herds should be covered during the winter months, as herds which have been carefully attended to in the winter will reflect the good treatment in the volume of milk at the commencement of the season.

The importance of growing shelter belts of trees has often been stressed and al-

though many farmers have realised tho value of shelter there is. still plenty of room for improvement. Unfortunately, the cost of double fencing which is necessary for the satisfactory establishment of shelter belts probably prevents some farmers from improving the conditions of their farms in this direction. POTENTIAL DANGER TO COWS.

“Now that the hot months of summer have arrived and stock are apt to become extremely thirsty, it is desirable to- warn dairy farmers that when they clean out their milking machinery and cans with caustic soda, carbonate of soda, or any elkalino cleanser cows should on no account bo allowed to drink the washings, which are often run down an open drain. Valuable stock have been lest at two or three farms under conditions which suggest that some caustic agent was ingested, the stomach and intestines being inflamed, and no common poison such as lead or arsenic being found,” states the Journal of Agriculture. THE WHITE BUTTERFLY.

The presence of large numbers of the

white butterfly in the Manawatu district is occasioning some concern among tho farmem and it is apparent that further measures will have to be taken to destroy this new pest. Thoro has boon a marked increase in numbers compared with last year, and although no local crops have been damaged to the / extent they have been in Hawke’s Bay, no time can be lost in commencing the work of extermination.

BUTTERMAKING AT AWAIIURI.

A VISIT TO THE FACTORY. The Awahuri butter factory is ideally situated from an economic viewpoint, for it is in tho centre of a district noted for its butterfat production. On every hand intensive dairy farming is being conducted and a very largo percentage of the pro-* ducts of farming operations in this district is supplied to tho factory. _ Although if has approximately 300 suppliers, tho furthest supplier is not more than 12 miles distant from tho factory. Thus it will be seen that the area is compact and the lorries do not have to trnvel long distances to convey tho cream to its destination. Moreover, the compact area involving small mileago materially assists in keeping overhead charges low. The factory could draw supplies from further afield if it so desired, but it is satisfied with the present radius. The factory is equipped with modern machinery and efficiency and cleanliness in the process of manufacture are observed. Throughout the manufacturing operations, the fact that the produce is untouched by hand is noteworthy. The observance of hygienic conditions and untiring efforts to over raise the quality of its output accounts for the high standard of butter produced. At present the factory is turning out 150 boxes of buttor per day.

DAIRY INDUSTRY.

WORK AT MASSEY COLLEGE. At yesterday’s meeting of the council of the Massey Agricultural College, the Dean of Dairying, Professor W. Riddet, reported as follows on dairy work at the college up to January 18: “Dairy Farm : Apart from milking and general attention to stock, the principal activity has been the making of hay and ensilage and tho cultivation of roots for autumn and winter use. Five acres of soft turnips and swedes and two and a half acres of mangolds are being grown. The lucerno sown in November continues to do well in spite of the dry weather. Considerable time has been devoted to clearing the accretion paddocks of lupins and goatsruo. At present all of the dairy pastures are being top-dressed and arrangements have been made to plough areas intended for seeding to crops and pastures in March.

“Milking Herd. —There are 103 cows and heifers in milk. Most of the animals are milking well, but the onset of tho dry spell has naturally reduced their production. A recurrence of trouble with ‘blowing’ was experienced in December when the aftermath of young pasture was being grazed. In view of the difficulty of grazing rich pasture easily at periods when most needed, and of tho losses widely experienced by dairymen, the causes and control of ‘hoven’ is a problem. PIG SECTION. “All of the breeding pigs have done particularly well on the extensive grazing plan. The reduction in the pig herd and the changed methods of feeding and management this seuson have given results much superior to those of previous seasons. It is worth observing that the salo of the skins of the bobby calves and the feeding of the flesh to the pigs has yielded better cash returns than the sale of the calves as live ‘bobbies for slaughter.’ ”

DAIRY PRODUCE.

, Tho New -Zealand Loan and Mercantile Agency Coy., Ltd., have received 'the following advice from their London house dated February BDairy produce (last week’s figures in parentheses) -. Butter, New Zealand choicest salted 80s per cwt (78s)-. Quietly steady. Cheese, white, 47s per cwt (455); coloured, 57s per cwt (57s to 58s). Market quiet. RURAL RAKINGS. Hay crops in the Eketahuna district this season have been very heavy. One Rongokokako farmer’s crop yielded 94 bales of pressed hay to the acre. There is prolific growth on the pastures all over the Bay of Plenty district. In the case of many dairy herds tho butterfat yield is nearly equal to that of the flush period, especially on farms where there is a substantial mixture of paspalum in the pastures. Lucerne, swede and turnip crops are in splendid condition. A farmer on tho Murrumbidgee irrigation area who had a block badly . infested with rabbits caught five lively bucks and gave them a good coating of luminous paint. When they were let go at dusk there was a wild scamper from tho warrens. Tho more tho ghosts tried to»consort with tho mob the more the mob scattered. Tho fivo also ran from each other, and in a little while only a few stragglers were left on tho holding for tho farmer to clean up.

An indication of the progress of dairying in the Gisborne district during the past twelve months, and also of better conditions obtaining this season compared with last year, is contained in tho January returns' of tho Poverty Bay Herd Testing Association. It is shown that last month 1010 more cows were tested than in the year previously, and that, despite the increased numbers, an improvement is shown in the test of 4.7 to 4.8. Tho average quantity of milk per cow increased from 4931 b in January last year to 5851 b last month, the butterfat average rising from 23.19 to 28-40. Tho highest herd in tho district is credited with an averago of 41.171 b butterfat for the month, and the highest cow produced 74 lb.

MASSEY COLLEGE.

FARM OPERATIONS. Reporting to the meeting of the Massey Collego Council, yesterday, on farm work at the college, the principal, Professor G. S. Pcren, stated ; “Tho students working, under Mr Gould, on general farm work, have completed tho making of hay and ensilage for both tho sheep and dairy farms. All root and forage crops have been sown and aro being kept hoed and cultivated. Tho autumn sown oats for chaff have been cut and stacked and the spring sown oats will bo cut very shortly. A beginning has been made on the top-dressing for tho dairy farm and with tho ploughing for autumn sown grass. On the whole, the root and forage crops are looking well, although in one or two places tho weeds got away rather badly owing to the demand made on all available labour by the large programme of hay and silage making. Tho weather has beon very dry of late and theso crops would benefit tremendously by a good fall of rain. The autumn sown oats were a very good crop and in view of tho favourable ripening weather should make very nice chaff.

“Sheep: The dry weather of tho past six weeks has 3uitcd tho sheep, which are remarkably healthy. Tho white clover in the pastures is now, however, beginning to suffer badly and one would welcome a good rainfall. Since the last council meeting all lambs have been shorn, with the oxcoption of the black faco and stud_ ram lambs. Some of the stud owe lamb 3 clipped as much as 5/1 bs of wool. All stud lambs havo been dipped. Although there has been no sign of parasitic worms, all lambs havo beon drenched once as a matter of procaution. Lambs have been weaned and all cull ewes have been sold with the excepj tion of those required for the refectory.’

RETAIL PRICES OF NEW ZEALAND MEAT IN LONDON.

Tho New Zealand Meat Producers’ Board has been advised by its London manager that the following retail prices were being quoted for New Zealand lamb and mutton retailed in London during January, 1933. These prices represent a fair average of the prices' quoted by the better class shops in London for tho best quality New Zealand lamb and mutton: New Zealand lamb, legs, lid per lb; shoulders, lOd; loins, 9d; necks, 4d; breasts, 2d; forequarters, 8d; hindquarters, lOd. New Zealand mutton (wethers), legs, 8d; shoulders, 7d; loins, 7d; necks, 3d; breasts, 2d.

NGAKURU PASTURES.

FEED IN PUMICE COUNTRY. ROTORUA, Feb. 8. The Ngakurn Settlement is looking at its best just now, as abundance of feed is to be seen on every portion of tho blocks. Tho mowers have been kept steadily at work, and solidly-built haystacks can be seen on all sides. Ensilage has also been made in large quantities, and there could bo no longer any doubt about the high pumice {Country being able to carry its winter stock. Tho whole countryside in that locality is a convincing object-lesson of what can be accomplished by proper farming mothods. The one thing which strikes the visitor as a probable fault is that feed is too plentiful, for thoro aro largo areas which would be the bettor for closer grazing. However, until fencing is completed and rotational feeding made possible this superabundance of feed is sure to be encountered.

GRAIN AND PRODUCE.

CHRISTCHURCH MARKET REVIEW. CHRISTCHURCH, Feb. 9. More fowl wheat is offering and values for prompt are easier, being quoted at 3s 4d f.0.b., s.e. Spread delivery is quoted at 3s 3d; but wheat for later delivery! is not so easy to pick up as prompt. Oats continue to the offered, but most farmers are reconciled to the wisdom of stacking their oats and forgetting about them until the winter, when they will probably be held in more respect. Algerians arc quoted at Is 2d to Is 4d a bushel on trucks, and Cartons to Is sd. The sample this season is outstanding. Ryegrass is unchanged at Is 3d to Is 6d a bushel on trucks. The prico is not encouraging much business, and merchants have been enabled to accept most of the. seed offering at tho prico quoted. With the break in the weather now over, offers are expected to increase. Reports from tho south state that good quality seed will bo harvested. Cocksfoot has not been offered from tho Peninsula so far, but the best quotation is 3d to 3|d nominally. Potatoes are neglected; nominal quota tions are £2 a ton on trucks. WELLINGTON WHOLESALE PRICES. WELLINGTON. Feb. 9. Tho following wholesale pricos for grain, produco, etc., are quoted:—Wheat, 4s 9d to 5s per bushel. Bran, £5 17s 6d per ton. Pollard, £6 5s per ton.

Tho herds of seven Wairarapa station owners are represented in the experimental shipment of chilled beef now on its way to London. The meat was. very careful.y selected, and tho beef finally chilled and loaded into the Port Fairy was drawn from the herds of Mrs W. Barton Sir William Perry, Messrs W. E. Bidwell, .T. D McDougall, W. Bunny, R. Buick, and Trevor Hume. Should the chilled beef industry develop as it _is anticipated it wil , this experimental shipment will be regarded in time as an historic one.

WELLINGTON STOCK EXCHANGE.

YESTERDAY’S BUSINESS AND PRICES. Tho chief feature of the Wellington market yesterday -was the sudden relapse of Waihi Gold Mining shares, which were quoted at the final eajl buyers 21s 6d, sellers 21s 9d. On Tuesday sales were made at Wellington and Auckland at 21s 6d to 225. There was marked activity in these shares on Wednesday, sales being reported in tho four main centres at 22s to 22s 6d, a late salo at Wellington being recorded yesterday at 22s 7d. It is reported that tho activity was due largely to London buying. The decline in quotations yesterduy was, doubtless, a reaction. to the additional export tax on gold. There was a good demand yesterday for Government securitos, but no sales were recorded at Wellington. Values .were firm, the 4£ per cent, stocks, 1939 and 1938, moving up 2s 6d to £95 12s 6d. Banks were a firm and active market. New South Wales moved up to a sale at £2B 12s 6d, cum divicVjnd. Buyers entered closing bids of £2B 10s, sellers asking 5s higher.

National of Australasia, £lO paid, wore wanted at £ll 10s and tho £5 paid firmed Is at £5 13s, sellers staying at £5 15s. New . Zealands were steady and Union of Australia advanced 2s to £7 10s without rosponse. In the insurance section New Zealands were traded at 44s ex dividend. There were other buyers at 43s 6d, but sellers quoted 465. Queensland were 6d better at 50s. Gear Meats had two sales at 28s 6d, more being wanted at 27s 9d with sellers at 295. N.Z. Breweries were bid for at 27s Id, sellers 27s 9d. Staples recovered 6d at 21s, ex div. In the miscellaneous section Colonial Sugars were firmed at £52 10s, sellers asking £1 more. Burns Philp hardened to 475, and Wilson’s Cement were 3d batter at 26s 3d. Bids of 4s 6d for Moturoa Oils still failed to secure an offer.
