In the waterless region north of Takapuna, as far as Deep Creek, a tank wagon is a welcome appearance these days. Summer dwellers at Brown's Bay, Murray’s Bay, Campbell’s Bay, and other resorts along the coast are buying their supplies at ss. a hundred gallons (states the Auckland “Star”). When all tanks became emptv during January, and wells and springs dried up under the influence of tho drought, tho Waitemata County Council came to the rescue, and arranged for an emergency supply from Lake Pupuke. Farmers inland are having an anxious time, and in some cases scant supplies of water arc available for stock.
