Cows are reported to be coming in well in the South Wairarapn this season, and the yields of milk are well up to the average. , An interesting photograph of a di>p.a\ of bacon pigs forwarded to the London market by the Canterbury A. and 1 . Association was placed on the table by Mr James Simpson, of Soulhbridgc. at the meeting of the New Zetland rig Breeders’ Association in Palmerston North yesterday. A coincidence was that the animals were judged alive at the Spring Show of the southern ai-eociation by Mr A. ltusscll, who presided over Ihe meeting. A four-acre stand of . lucerne is to be seen on the Devondalc farm, Belfast, Canterbury which produced something of a record last season. Jt was sown on October 1 and three cuts were taken for ensilage before the end of April—less than six months. The stand is now showing a vigorous growth, and should be ready to cut by the middle of October. It is expeetde that it will yield six cuts this season. r .. . Prospects for the export of small seeds overseas from New' Zealand arc this yeai regarded by the trade as being much less encouraging than they were last year and the year before {says the Christchurch Press). The trade however, is no particularly disappointed, because it. is realised that the good two years were an unusual piece of fortune for New Zealand exporters. . The seriousness of the rabbit post in the Waitotara County Council's area is adequately indicated by ibe report of the Latca Rabbit Board’s officer in charge of poisoning operations. In the Waitotara district, block 10.002 rabbits were poisoned, one man accounting for as many as 8771. When the ground was covered a second' time 350 rabbits were poisoned, most of them hein" young animals. In addition to those destroyed in this area 8000 were poisoned in the Wnngaelm area.
