SHORTAGE IN HAWKE’S BAY WOOL-CLIP.
The Fields Supervisor for Hawke’s Bay District reports, —- I find that there will be a considerable shortage of wool in Hawke’s Bay. The . winter and spring seasons were bad. The wool is light, and short in staple. The Mangawhare clip is thirty bales under last year’s total, and every station is affected. It is estimated that the total shortage in Hawke’s Bay will equal 15,000 bales, equalling in monetary value, say, about £170,000. Good rains have fallen everywhere, and the inland pastures are looking well.
