POTATO CROP IN HAWKE'S BAY.
PRACTICALLY RUINED. NAPIER. February 16. The potato crcp, ou the Heretaunga Plains, and Meanee and Taradalo, is nractioully ruined by the biighfc, and this, despite the fact that growers have in some instances sprayed the plants two or three times. It is thought the unusual amount of wet weather experienaed this summer may be partly responsible for the inefficiency of the spraying, but whatever the oause may be the outlook is very serious.
