This is the "greenest" year on record for the whole of Hawke's Bay, says an exchange. Instead of the customary brown paper .appearance of tho countryside at this time of the year, hills and plains are verdant, and tho grass long and plentiful. But tho unusual conditions are not as beneficial as tho uninitiated miglit expect, as there is little hotly in the grass, and stock are not doing as well as they otherwise would were the conditions more seasonable. Potatoes are showing signs of blight, and unless wo get a spell of fine weather soon crops of the tubers will be seriously affeot-ed.
