WHATAWHATA GREAMERY.

Our creamery re-cominonced business on Monday morning, about 200 gallons going through. A good season is anticipated. Tho grass U ovorywliere growing fast, and tho suppliers.in mostcaße3,havo an increased number of cows. In this connection, however, I am sorry to say that considerable loss has been inflicted upon some of our suppliers, owing to abortion among tho cows, Mr W. W. Higginson having no less than eight go wrong in this manner. This ie a serious lo.ss to a struggling settler, and the worst of it is, that, the cause of troubio so far, is unexplained. Messrs Higginson and Macdonald's cuttle are well cared for, and in good condition. Some changes have been made in connection with tho factory, Mr Vincent Kwen, formely upon Ngarua-wiihi-i staff, having been appointed manager, Mr C. liloomh'eld taking his place at A'garuawuhia. Thore can be no question that tho late manager had a rough tune of it while in charge of our factory, lo receive and separate) an average of ;jOO galls of inilk.llien to clean up and cart tho cream to NRaruawahia a distance of nlimm miles, for six days n woek, in -ill weather, is no joke, and only a young active man could do it. Charlie was alwayu civil and obhcmg, and f am only expressing the feeliue of the enniiliura, in hoping thuo the change will be Koine promotion for him. Thn contract for ennveyiug the cream daily to Nguruawahiu, wuj obtaiued by Mr Uaw.son.
