FASHIONABLE CATTLE
♦ HOLSTEIX FRESIANS FROM AMERICA. By Telegraph—Pi ess Association. Wellington, Last Night. What is said to be the largest consignment of stud cattle that has come to hand to New Zealand from America was landed by the Aorangi at Wellington this morning from San Francisco. It comprised seventeen head of HolstcinFresians, which were selected from herds in Brockloy (Massachusetts) and Wisconsin by Mr. W. J. Lovelock, of Palmerston ' North, for the following New Zealand farmers:—Messrs C. C. Hopping (Rongotea), J. Hart (Dannevirke), W. .1. Remmant (Woodville), .1. Liggins (Tokomaru) and A. J. Harris (Featherston). Half-a-dozen others are to follow to complete the order, and, like the first lot, they will be imported through the agency of Messrs Dalgety and Co. The cattle were transshipped to the Duchess this morning and conveyed to the quarantine station on Somes Island. The animals are said to have been bred from the highest strain in the States from which they were selected. Their value is assessed at a high figure.
