PAEMAKO.

Own Correspondent. The winter n«w past has been one of lh« finest on record. The early plant and peach trees are in bloom, and the willows bu-sting into leaf. In this district as yet there baa not been much provision made for winter feed for cattle beyond the grass, and the fine season baa enabled the animate to get through well. Another of the farm-* here has jest changed bands at a satisfactory figore, the purchaser being Mr Percy Webby, of Taranaki. Lambing has commenced, and the first of the season is now far from latest arrival. A .good many additions to the flocks can be seen on the farms all over the district. It is too early yet to say whether the lambing this year will be a good one for the breeders, but it appears certain that with good lack in respect of the weather, the season will be one of the most prolific we have ever had. The chief aim of settlers here jost now is to lay down as much land as possible in gTass as we are going to have the factory gem? at Piopio next ■•ease it.

Messrs Kendall. Sundvick. Churcher. and Watson Brr>*. are all getting down a fair amount of bush and some of our Native friend* arc also doing the same.
