It is becoming more and more difficult to obtain good, rich river deposit land at a reasonable price and on easy terms. However, once moro an opportunity presents itself through the subdivision fit part of tho well-known Itaukawa- Estate, owned by Mr. A. Buchanan, containing 324 acres, which has been subdivided into three lots of 103, 108, and 113 acres. This block is situated 7i miles from Palmerston North, 3 miles from Ashhurst, also handy to cheese factory, school, post office, etc. The land is all river deposit, and winters all classes of stock well. The locality is picturesque, having small patches of native trees and plantations. This estate is eminently adapted for stud breeding. Mr. Buchanan has been carrying on business as a brecdor of purebred Jerseys and purebred Eoraneys for some years, and the quality of the cattle and sheep is a standing testimony as to the Buitability of tho land for that purpose. The estate also lends itself well to dairying fattening, or crass-seed crowing. Lot 1 has a- cottage and milking shed, and Lot 2, with its up-to-date residence, good appointments, ami outbuioMngs, and picturesquo surroundings, would make an ide;J home for anyone wishing to retire from moro extensive farming operations. Terms aro exceptionally easy-only 10 per cent, deposit.is required. Further particulars are advertised.
