S1J1l[MARY FOR THE MONTH OF OCTOBER, 1925. October's WMother was an improvement on that experienced in the preceding spring and winter months, less wind and more continued warmth being favourable to vegetable growth and stock. Although westerly disturbances predominated, only one, which passed in the South between the 13th and 15th, was of marked intensity, ca.using strong northerly to westerly winds and considerable rain, especially in the South and about Cook Strait. Anticyclonic conditions ruled during the 1a.st week, when fine sunny days and cold nights were experienced generally. The total month's rainfall was below the average in all districts, except Nelson and parts of Otago in the South Isla.nd, and I1-bout the :Bay of Islands in tbe North. D. C. BATES. Director.
