TO TKB EDITOR OP THB TIMABU BBBALD. Sib,—l rnunt apologise for troubling you on Hub matter, which perhaps U more appropriate fcr an agricultural journal. However, the gravity of the subject must be my excuse. Hating noticed Intel y that many of the lambs m the district bavo a cough wliich eeemod to indicate disease, I tcuk the opportunity when weaning some limbs to kill one which had the cough biiclly, and nas very much sooured. Upon examining the lung I found that the threadlikn woroß were present m the papsages, and I took out a tcore measuring from one to two inches. As it is generally bettered that these posts, which have caused sued beavy loss during the past year do not nppeart.il! March or April, I think it right to mako my experience publio. and beg to rnfer your readers to Mr Fostor's letters m tho Country Journal on the subject. I am, &c-, Sheep Faemse. February llth.
