Best Season For Years In North
(New Zealand Press Association) WELLINGTON, January 12. Store lambs are being sold in the Manawatu for more than fat lambs are bringing.
Farmers, embarrassed by the amount of feed, are buying store stock to keep down the grass. Shorn Border Leicester ewe lambs brought up to £4 at the last Pauatahanui sale. And there was a yarding of 10,000. This is the best season for grass in the Manawatu for at least five years. The right weather, together ] with liberal topdressing in : recent seasons has brought ' unexpectedly good growth in i
the southern half of the North Island. Stock firms today described the season as “never better." There is so much hay in the Manawatu and Horowhenua that hardly any is changing hands and then only at low prices.
