GRASS SUPPLY FOR GOVERNMENT BULLOCKS.
Practically no more land was brought under cultivation in Kennedy Town. The total amount of grass cut was 100 tons or just half of last year's crop. The abnormal rainfall during the summer seemed to be responsible for the short crop. In Kowloon the fresh portion of land beside the Orient Tobacco Factory broken in and planted with guinea grass last year as anticipated was able to spare grass for Hongkong.
