The Otawhao correspondent of the Daiuierirke "Evening News" writes: Rains in January, although unusual, proved a great boon to settlers here. It has been exceedingly tricky for haymaking, but the cows . have benefited greatly by the wealth of succulent pasture. Each shower brings the milk weights at the factory much abovo the previous day's records. Potatoes and turnips are making good growth where sown, and so far.have withstood the ravages of blight and fly. A great run , on milking machines is now taking place on the block, 0110 company having almost completed five installations during the last fow weeks. Settlors find this the only way out of the labour problem
