AUCTIONEERS’ NOTE: We confidently recommend this most exclusive grazing property as being one of the most outstanding it has been out privilege to offer. Situated as it is on the sea coast, and being almost entirely free from frosts, it is necessary to carry an additional 150 adult cattle during the winter months to control the pastures (this year 225). No supplementary winter feed is ever provided for. For 30 years, the late Mr Rutherford has not varied his carrying capacity, he has topdressed very lightly indeed, and there is nc doubt that all stock figures can be very considerably stepped up by subdivision and more concentrated grazing and topdressing. Ewes are always in fat condition and lambs are drafted for the works before Christmas. The garden and shrubs at the homestead have taken years to establish and is very accurately described as being one of the show places of Canterbury and Marlborough. It is a delightful spot in which to liveDelivery April 7, 1958. Stock may be taken at valuation if required. TERMS: 10 per cent, on fall of hammer.
