All business promptly and carefulW attended to An abundant potato crop is expected in the Pukekohe district this season (says the “ New Zealand Herald ”). A much larger area than usual has been planted, and so far the plants are looking extremely well, though the season is not yet sufficiently advanced to enable a reliable estimate to be made of the probable increase in production as compared with the previous season. The ex* cellent returns received last year, due to the absence of blight have encouraged growers to plant freely in the hope of having another year free from the dreadtd post. It is stated that cropping land at Pakokohe is now selling at high rates, areas in favoured localities having realised £l5O an acre.
