Farming in Australia
In an article on Farming 1 in Australia the Globe says : '* The growing prosperity of our colonial dependencies is again "strikingly illustrated by the tables relating to them included in rhe agricultural returns. Among them New Zealand and Queensland offer as usual the most marked appearance of progress. In New Zealand there whs an addition of "25,000 acres to the wheat-yieldin« area, and the number of bushels obtained was 200,000 more thaiyt had ever been before." Speaking of horned cattle, the same journal observes :-«-" In New South Wales ; the number" nas been steadily declining 1 for the last raven yeais, and is now only tbree-fi||£ks of what it was in i 1875. On the other hand, in New ; Zealand it was in the last-mentioned year only about three-fifths of what it j is at present."
