Enthusiasm over the condition ot Southland's pastoral lands compared with Taranaki’s dairy country was displayed by an Invercargill citizen who recently visited the North Island. “They boost Taranaki at the expense of Southland,’' lie. said, “but we have the goods this time. Anywhere in Southland you can see plenty of feed—paddocks of it — green, fresh and long. In Taranaki the dairy lands are carrying just a thin sole of grass—not a mouthful of feed as on the Southland pastures.” Southland had had a better winter and early spring than Taranaki, he added. It was unusual for Southland to be so far advanced with its feed for this time of the year, but the evidence was to be found in the paddocks almost everywhere.
