INTERPROVINCIAL TELEGRAMS.
("from thelyttelton times.)
Timaru, Jan. 17.
The heavy rain of the last day or two has done scarcely any perceptible damage to the crops in this district. The wheat and oats on the plains are looking splendid, and harveet operations will be , general in from five to ten days. The barley crop is rather patchy.
It is anticipated that the Albury railway line will be taxed to its utmost to convey grain to the sea port, the country for forty miles, from Timaru to the foot of Burkes Pass, is one vast sea of rapidly ripening grain.
