CABBAGE TREES IN FLOWER.
(To the Editor.) Sir,—l notice the cabbage trees flower very profusely this spring. The Maoris say that it is a sign of a dry summer and mv observations for many years confirm this; so I would strongly advise all farmers and owners of animals to secure and preserve all fodder possible. There are lots of grass growing on the roadside, and idle lands in and around the city overgrown with stock feed, and no doubt lots of this teed could be secured at little or no cost, and there is now plenty of cheap labour to harvest it.—l am, etc., c N CLA XJ SEN . December 17, 1932.
