“-\o one knows just what avo have had to suffer at Knramea, ? ’ a victim ol last year’s lloods said today. “Neither public nor Government. appeal's to be aware of the extent v'i lie; damage, and while avo are still hoping for relief we have to face Gie fact that the authorities are more concerned with providing mon *v lor the earthquake-smitten areas. ‘‘Pastnre land at f\a:ainea has been wiped on) and ranch serious damage dune to the farms along tin* river banhs. Some of the settlers, ineliiding myself, have been trying to soli their stock, and avo have not had one offer. My 40 head of dairy cattle are still there, and I have not much need for the stock. It is 6.1 miles to Westpert end over 100 f 0 Nelson, but it is impossible to drive the stock over the road in the hope of se'ling an odd one or two. Nearby farm at* are still stocked up. We are hoping devoutly that the GoA'ernment will realise our plight. ’ >
