Sir,—I have the honor to forward for your information, my Annual Report for the year ending 31st December, 1874. I regret that there are so many infected flocks in this District, but I trust that at least five out of the ten flocks at present reported as being diseased, will obtain clean certificates within the next few months.

Scab is so firmly seated in some of the large rough runs, that notwithstanding the utmost efforts of the owners to eradicate the disease, it will prove a work of time to clean the ground.

I have, &c.,
THOMAS TELFORD,
Inspector of Sheep Wairarapa and East Coast.

Henry Bunny, Esq.,
Provincial Secretary, Wellington.
