Dobson, stating that on a recent day 30 head of cattle were-straying on the road at Kikou, including eight bulls.
Cr. G. H. McKenzie stated that 30 was too low, and he was sure the figure should have been closer to 130. It was decided that rangers should be sent to the district in the near future, when all stock on roads will be driven to the Kpwakawa pound, and owners prosecuted.
