LEARNERS OF SHEARING.
In his address to sheep-owners in Masterton on Saturday Mr. H. Nev- . ins urged the importance of employing; a certain number of learners at each shearing-shed. It is to be hoped that this advice will be readily taken. At the present time owners are dependent almost entirely upon an itinerant class of shearers, many of whom are drawn from Australia. If settlers' sons and farm hands were taught shearing, the owner would ,in the course of a few years, be less at the mercy of the professional agitator than ho is at present.
