Experiments have proved that there is a prepondering gain per day in animals under two years old as compared with those under three. Daialy gains seem to have a tendency to gradually fall away as the animal g-ets older, until there comes a time when the weight can be increased no further. One effect of the financial stringency will be that there will be less land broken in for pasturage in New Zealand this year than for many years past (states the Dominion), Owing to the prevailing conditions, the winter contracts for scrub cutting, bush felling and fencing will not be nearly' so numerous as in normal years, which means that less new land will be sown in the early spring.
