OF INTEREST TO FARMERS.
By Telegiaph—Press Association PALMERSTON N., Nov. 2.
Farmers will be interested in a case heard by Mr Thomson, S.M., at the Police Court yesterday. Nicholas Donohue, of Fitzherbert East, laid an information against D. Gordon, because the latter, being the swner of land adjoining his land, did muster his sheep for the purpose of ear • marking them, without giving notice to the complainant of such muster. Mr* Innes, who appeared for defendant, pleaded guilty on his behalf, but in extenuation said the provision of the Act requiring such notification was more honoured in the breach than in the observance among small farmers.
The Magistrate said it was well that farmers should knaw the requirements of the Stock Act. De fendant was convicted and fined Is, with costs lis, and solicitor's fee, £1 Is. .
