MAPTAIERI RIVER S fo iS I I I I I I I I I I I I I 1—rSca/e of Miles. Arthur.—On the Taieri River Floods. 97 theory is correct. For instance, Mr. James Murison, who first tookup country there as a runholder in 1857, has assured me that, whilethe southerly storms rage around the Lammerlaw and Eock andPillar, the basin of the Upper Taieri Eiver itself escapes these to a greatextent. From the Kyeburn, all round the north and west side of the plainto the Totara, that is over an area of 280 square miles, or 180,000 acres,there is not a single stream but such as a man may easily jump across.The Kyeburn stream has a rapid descent, and in floods rises to a consider-able height, but falls quickly. This I saw during the big flood of 1868,when camped on its banks. The streams then round to the Totara dis-charge very little rainfall into the Taieri; and the most received by MountIda flows into the Waitaki; while on the east side, round to Hyde, there isbut a small quantity runs down the Sowburtransactionsofro81roya
