Ashburton Guardian Not Published Tomorrow and Seasonal Wishes

The Ashburton Guardian says it will not publish tomorrow and extends season’s greetings to readers.

County Overseer Mr Morrison notes the north branch of the Ashburton River is very low and plans to cut a channel to the upper reaches to bring in water from the South branch for county water races at Winchmore and Mill InTake. The water race system remains fairly well supplied, but diminishing inflows at several mains prompt steps to restore full volume.
