Dry Weather and Dairying.
A TREMENDOUS LOSS. HAWERA, February 6. The effect of the dry weather during January is illustrated by the shrinkage of the output at the Kaupokonui factory. In December, 1906, 7,332 cheeses were manufactured ;• in December, 1907, 7,881. Instead of a corresponding increase in January which would have occurred under ordinary conditions there was a falling off of 654 cheeses, the number being 6,646 as agarnst 7,300 in January, 1907. The experience of Kau pokonui is also the experience of many other factories in the province, and the aggregate falling off must represent a tremendous loss to the industry.
