IRRIGATION IN CANTERBURY.
EFFECTS OF DROUGHT. ASHBURTON. February 27. Dry weather still continues, and it is feared that if rain does not fall very soon the water race system of the county, must to a great extent break down. The rivers and head works are now lower than for • many years past. The drought is also having a serious effect on the pasture, and the prospects of good growth of winter feeti are fast diminishing. *
