On tHo following day I passed' through Mr Hadfield's land. Two men are employed in poisoning only, besides one or two others hunt* ing occasionally. I think Mr Hadfield is doing his best to get nd of the- pest now. I next visited Mr Perry's run. A good deal of poison -has been used here, find the. rabbits are considerably reduced, there is also a man kept hunting regularly,, On the following day I passed through the land owned by Messrs Jones and .Moore,' and through on to that owned by Mr .D. M'Kenzie. I saw but few rabbits on Measrs Jones and Moore's sections, but they are. vtjry numerous on Mr McKenzie'a, 'efficient steps not being taken to reduce. them. I was not able to tee Mr McKenzie, as he was abpgpt from N?. Off llr John JiDKenzie's the »bbita are also. numerous, no efficient |teps being taken to keep, them in oheck, - , I next visited Mr F. Dofeet' land. Poison has been laid on the boulder bank, but I did hrtt see any dead rabbits about there, though live ones were still plentiful. On the section at the Pairau, part of . the: estate of the late W. : Welch-flow. I HI i 1 lL o lmej)Mnpd'by.Mr.Ollivier--the i rabbits are very nmnerous indeed. Nothing has beon done to reduce them since Mr H. Welch laid •-poison there some weeks ago. From this section the rabbits are spreading on the-adjoining properties, and it will be necessary so.take immediate steps to compel the - prerent owner to ■ adopt means for thoir destruction. I ■ visited to-day Mr Colin McLaohlan's land, as well as Mr Tuck's Ban'gitumau 1 property, and Mr Gibson's.
