Canterbury has not enjoyed the " autumn r?,ms which were xeasonably to be expected and in consequence there is 'a great dearth of feed. Hard frosts are now prevailing here and it is obvious that it will'..be a matter of the greatest difficulty to Canterbury farmers to have fat stock to supply ! our markets during winter.
