GLADSTONE.
(From Our Own Correspondent). GLADSTONE, Thursday. The weather for the holidays has been all that could be desired. Residents are now settling downagain to their usual everyday work. The present dry weather is playing havoc with rape crops. The rape is getting very hard, and quite blue in colour, and lambs consequently will not do so well as in other seasons. . Road-grading operations are about to be commenced again on the Eringa Road at Longbush. As the ground is in such a dry state' the work is proving very hard on horses and grader alike. The contractors for the erection of Mr W. Strang's house have comr menced operations, and, with fine weather, should push the work through quickly.
