Sir,—I have the honor to hand you the Annual Returns of Sheep, and have much pleasure in being able to report the entire eradication of scab from the Rangitikei District—a subject which has been the source of great anxiety from both myself and the flockowners for the past number of years, and a fact which I cannot pass over without expressing my satisfaction with the flockmasters in general for the readiness with which my advice has invariably been carried out by them.

In consequence of the division of the District, it will be noticed that the above Returns only include the sheep south of Turakina River, the flocks depasturing between the Turakina and Wangaehu River having been taken into the Wangaehu returns before the Wangaehu River was proclaimed the dividing boundary.

In comparing my last report for the above locality, I find an increase of 8,407 sheep, amounting to £17 10s. 3½d. in excess of the assessment for 1871.

I have, &c.,
Henry Bunny, Esq.,
R. K. SimersoN,
Provincial Secretary, Wellington,
Inspector of Sheep.
