An occurrence which, so far as my experience, goes, is unique, took place on a farm on th'e Normanby road a few days ago, when a cow died through being gored by a bull (writes the Okaiawa correspondent of the Hawera Star). The. cow had only the two punctures through which the bull’s horns had penetrated, but evidently they were in a. vital spot, as she died in a few minute®. As is usually the case, when an animal is killed or dies a natural death, the cow was one of the best in the herd. The incident is another argument in favour off dehorning.
