Mr P. H. Wellington writes to the Editor as follows: —"In a xecent issue of your valuable paper a correspondent made reference to a crop of mangolds grown by Mr W. V. Hosking, of Wharehuia, giving certain measurements and weights derived therefrom, and also giving a certain tonnage per acre. But, sir, I being one who 'assis.ed in the measuring and weighing of the aforesaid mangolds, desire to state that your correspondent was misinformed; The real facts are as follows: 18 square feet on one side of the paddock gave mangolds whicli weighed 1121bs and a patch on the other side of the paddock measuring 100 square feet returned a weight of 4121b5, which works out at an average of over 90 tons to the acre. Who says now that Wharehuia land is no good?"
