DENBIGH ROAD.

FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.

September 6.—A severe thunderstorm, accompanied with heavy rain and hail, passed over here on Tuesday. The weatner is very changeable and unsettled, and not at all favourable to the farmers. However, the cows are coming in fast and the milk carte roll along with ever-increasing loads. Our factory is going to make casein right from the start almost this year, so that those who prefer to got their return from skim milk in this way, in preference to the trouble of calf-rearing, will be able to have a full season. W T e are pleased to hear that Mrs. F. Lacey, who has been rather seriously indisposed, is on the road to recovery, as is also the youngest sou of < Mrs. V. Mavrine, who has been suffering from an abcess on the knee and has been staying in Stratford. We arc pleased to hear that he is so far better as to be brought home. The Stratford High School hockey players are journeying to Whangamomo’na to-mompv to try conclusions with the AVhauga players. Mr. S. Edgeworth has sold Ins farm at the bottom end of the road, and the newcomers seem to be getting things well under way in the dairying line. The deepest sympathy is felt on all sides for Mr. and Mrs. E. Vickers, whose son is reported dead. It seems but the other day that the lad was “farowcllod” at Midhirst on his leaving for the front. Young Vickers was very popular and a great favourite all. Mrs. R. Carroll has returned from her trip South, and Mr. and. Mrs. Shutc, of Wanganui', are her guests for a week or two.
