"a huge success. As thu children have never been on a. railway! excursion beforo it will be quite- a novelty, to them, and with this great-prospect, in view they are rushing round at a great rate bent an selling tickets. . For the past two weeks we have hart raw wintrv weather. Northwesterly cales were followed by cold 'rams and bleak south-westers. As the lambing was about over tho loss in that respective was slight. Some of the percentages are: Fleming Bros. 1403''ewes, a large percentage 2-tooths, 11< ; Mr Smillie &"V) owes." a little over 120; and several others close on 120 For a little lot of ewes I thmk Mr Ar Rlackwood's percentage would bo hard to beat with 230.
