'THE TOWN OF UOUOPITO stands aloae in that great district in tills respect. It is the oniy large Freehold Block, all the rest of the country being leased iroin the Government In sections or reserved by the Crown for special purposes. This ract gives it a special value, as no Totv-n can look for permanent improvements ana continued importance unlesa its ptoule own the Freeiioid. of its soil. The TOWN OF HOKOPITO is within twenty ciiaius of the Horopito Railway btation, on the Main TruuK Line Xnia ja also the Uailvvay Station which will se ye the existing Townsuip of Uaetihi Lor Jully half a century the Town o£ Uoropito DQUst be one of the great sawniiUing ana dairying centres of the colonj , . Laige ana important as are the Towns of I'aiinerstoa North and Dannevirke, all experts agree that the Town of Horopito will in a biiiif perlud surpass them bom in its size its population, tne volume or us traae and its general prosperity. .The. Town of Horopito has already been cleared and laid down in English grass which, with a view to its setUement as a great liusiness Centre is of special siviincance. So weil is this fact understood that already quite a number of persons are temporarily settled in tents and wharfs upon the Main-road in front of the New lown, aad, while waiting for the sale, axe carrying on business as Storekeepers, Bntcners, iilacksmiths, etc., some three or four hundred men being engaged on the Railway Works close to the Town of Horop.to, aud diawIng their supplies from taere for seven miles each way. As a speculation or investment, no New Town has ever been offered in the North Island of New Zealand that presented quite the same advantages as the Town of Horopito. For the last live years the constant thought of many clear, far-sighted men has been "that a Great Centra] Town will be t created in tne Walmarino, between Auckland and Wellington. It must be good land, so that, after the sawmills have done their work, it will be availaule ft>r settlement by Dairy Fanners and others. Where will it be?" It was Impossible to say until, the Railway had piogressed towards a finish. That time has now arrived, and the answer to-day is that the Great Central Town will be Horopito. Visit and examine t:ie district. Look at each of the small townships created by the Government and you will become absolutely convinced that Horopito is the Great Natmal Centre of the Interior of t«ie Nortu Island. Apart altogether from its prospective Commercial and Industrial Importance, the Town of Horopito will be a favourite visiting place for Tourists ami Visitors. The railway journey even to-day is orf surpassing inteiest. The great chain of volcanic mountains, covered with snow, and wiUi the eternal fires of Ngauruhoe, Tongariro, and Ruapehu, sending their smoke to the heavens, will attract thousands of visitors both from Auckland ana Wellinzton. In order to comply with the wishes of a large number of intending purchasers in Auckland, the sale will take place in that City, the Hon. T. Kennedy Macdonald, M.L.C., acting as Auctioneer. To those who wish to visit the site •of the Town of Horopito, it may be well to say that the easiest routes axe as follows:— FROM AUCKLAND—By train to Raurimu, and from Raurimu by Coach to Horopito.
