The compiler has exhibited great tabte and skill in conveying much information in a small compass."— " Wellington Independent," January 9. " Wq have here one of the neatest and fullest compilations whioh everybody looks for at the beginning of the year. The information it contains is of a most varied kind. The form in whioh this Almanac is bound is most convenient. It iB enclosed in a dark-green cover, with a well-executed representation of Mount Egmont in the centre. This publication is creditable not only to the compiler and to the office whence it is issued, but even to New Plymouth itself."— " New Zealand Herald," January 7. " Unliko many almanacs in the sister Provinces, this publication is in its infancy, being the first in a book form ever issued in Taranaki, and is creditable to , its compiler and pnblisber, who is a well-known Auckland main. It is necessarily somewhat smaller than other provincial almanacs, but it seems to contain all the essentially requisite local informitfion, including an article (re-published with the consent of the author) on ' The Soils, Ohmate, and Capabilities ol Taranaki." 1—"1 — " Daily Southern Cross," January 8.
