FOR CRICKET BATS
NEW ZEALAND WILLOW
SHIPPED
Four tons of New Zealand willow, from the Masterton district, were shipped to Messrs. A. Dye and Sons, Sydney, by the Maungauui yesterday afternoon. It is understood that the willow, which has been cut into lengths of about 2ft 6in, is in the nature of a trial shipment, and will be used in the making of cricket bats. Eacli block had been split into four pieces for more economical transport, but it could be seen that cross-sections of the original trees would have measured up to 28in in diameter.
