 followed in starting an up-to-date dairy farm. A
herd of dairy cows, of some of the best Ayrshire strains in Australia,
was collected, as well as a fine number of Berkshire pigs, purchased

from the most successful breeders and importers. Three large

tub silos,
capable of holding 250 tons of fodder, were erected
in which to store

winter-grown crops as well as the summer crops under

irrigation. [Illustration: "Crown Prince," Guernsey
Bull.] An irrigation scheme was carried out, and the results have been
most successful. The following dairy fodder crops have yielded
prolifically:--Oats, rye, maize, sorghum, pearl millet, vetches, field
peas, cow
peas, lucerne, mustard, Jersey kale, field cabbage, turnips, swedes,
mangel wurzel, silver beet, buckwheat, potatoes, linseed, pig
melon, paspalum, Italian
canary grass. The irrigation plant is capable of dealing with 80 acres

of land in the summer months. Some of the

land thus treated
is the rich dark alluvial on the river bank, while a portion is on the
higher clay plateau, and consists of land typical of many thousands
of acres in the same locality
