Referring to the recent discussion in Christehureh as to tho best date iipon which" to take the census of the sheep iu the Dominion, Mr. C. M. Elisor told a representative of tho "Press" that tho shearing and tailing tallies would be the best to adopt. These, he pointed out, were exact tallies taken by every sheep-owner, and would be absolutely reliable. Tho figures based on these tallies could be available by the end of February, and would give those interested an idea of tho number of lambs available in tho Dominion. In tho event of a shortage, being disclosed, growors could make their lambs a little bit heavier. Tho returns being availablo in February would give those who wanted to produce ewos an idea of the number of the ewes availablo in different localities in tho'Dominion.
