HAIL DAMAGE TO FRUIT
GISBORNE ORCHARD LOSSES [United Press Association) GISBORNE, 9th January. The damage to orchards in the Gisborne district as a result of the hailstorm on Boxing Day is much heavier than was at first expected. Some of the growers in areas that did not seem greatly affected at the time have noticed additional bruising showing up during the past few days, while one orchardist who was away at the time and who only recently returned discovered considerable damage. No reliable estimate has been made yet of the district’s loss, but it must run into many thousands of pounds.
