Corriedales for Western Australia. An enthusiastic reception has been given by Western Australian breeders to a shipment of Corriedales which recently arrived there. The shipment consisted of a ram hogget from the Otahuna flock of the Hon. Sir R. Heaton Rhodes, and 25 ewes from the New Zealand and Australian Land Company’s stud at Moeraki. The purchaser of the ram hogget, Mr. J. P. Stratton, has written in glowing terms of the sheep. “The sending across to Western Australia of rams of this quality and type would do much to deepen the interest of Western Australian breeders in this breed,” he says. The purchases ware made through the National Mortgage and Agency Company, Ltd.
