“Every useless animal we keep consumes someone’s share of food.” A resident in the West End, New Plymouth, had an unwelcome visitor a few days ago. The family were sitting at tea when a strange noise, as of someone doing a clog dance on the verandah, was heard. Leaving the kitchen to investigate, the householder was startled upon entering the passage to meet a full-grown bull-, with a ring in its nose, walking towards him. There was not sufficient room to allow the animal to turn, and so an attempt was made to get it to back cut, but this was not accomplished until the beast had entered the front room and caused a certain amount of damage to the furniture.
