In conversation with a wellknown Brunswick farmer, a representative of the Wanganui Chronicle learned that hawks are exceedingly troublesome in that district just now. He had recently had ix good ewes destroyed by these pests, the birds having picked the eyes out of the sheep and left them to bleed to death. He suggested that it would be a good thing if a premium were placed on the heads of the hawks and he signified his willingness to contribute ,£5 to any fund raised tor that purpose. “it would pay us,’' he added, referring to the farmers of the district generally, “to club together and create a fund to enable 6d a head to be paid until the district had been cleared of these wretched things.” If we do not do something of the sort it will go hard with the lambs.
