WAIKAKA.
(Own Correspondent.) A deal of rain has fallen through the week, snd the weather has been decidedly wintry. A better season for the growth of grass, however, could hardly be imagined, and it is to be hoped settlers will reap the benefit of the fact.
The Waikaka wool kings are determined to keep their flocks up to the standard. The Blank Brothers have recently purchased a choice lot of £omney Marsh rams. The newly erected bridge over the Waikaka will be a great convenience to the travelling public who have occasion to use the mam road. It is a very solid structure, and dees credit to the builders.
We are not affected by the war scare heft ss yet. lam afraid if some of those young Waikato ladies were to eoaae canvassing with a Dreadnought subscription list amongst the sturdy potneer Waikaka bachelors, they could gtta very cold reception.
