In one paddock on the Totara estate (says the Oamaru Mail) there are 18 stud Border Leicester ewes, and these 18 ewes have proved most extraordinarily prolific, for they have dropped and are still maintaining no less than 57 lambs, all the ewes having dropped more than the usual quota. Fifteen of them dropped three lambs each, and the remaining three had four each.
