BAA-A-A-A-AH!
SHEEP MOVEMENT FROM COAST
HEAVY RAILAGE FIGURES
Those of us who have no.ted the large flocks of sheep moving slowly along the highways will have liad but a small concexition of the great number of head which have been railed from Taneatua station during the past month. The figure runs into tens of thousands, and it appears that there was something in the sardonic remark one seasoned drover, that the sheep at least appreciate the railage facilities on the much maligned Taneatua line.
The mobs which have *• passed through this district are from the East Coast generally, though a recent drover stated to a BEACON' representative that his mob had been travelling from Tokomaru Bay, having been on the read since the Bth of January.
