TROUBLES OF NORTHERN SETTLERS.
In a recent issue of the Wairarapa Daily Times three paragraphs appeared, as under: — A Masterton orchardist declares that he has lost two tons of fruit this season through the ravages of the codlin moth. — The quantity of blackened grain lying rotting in many paddocks in this district is very considerable and the loss to some farmers will be severe. — In some parts of the Wairarapa district a disease of the eyes in sheep has been very prevalent. The animals go totally blind, in some cases for a considerable time, but usually recover their sight within a few days.
