The present season has been the most wonderful known in Hawke’s Bay for some years (says the Telegraph). While grass, fruit trees, anfl crops generally have benefited, the common or vegetable garden has flourished most wonderfully. Peas, beans, or roots, have al! done well. But tho damp season has worked wonders in regard to the cabbage tribe. These have generally been hard to grow in the dry climate' of Hawke's Bay, but this year the brassicas are doing well For instance, an Early York cabbage, weighed in the scales, topped 121 b. Cauliflowers and turnips are doing splendidly.
