A KEEN BUYER
■ ■ 9 _- (By Telegraph.—Press Assooif tion.) THAMES, This Day. The first sale of land in over two years on the Hauraki Plains has just been completed. A hundred acres of land near Turua has been purchased by a southern i buyer from the Wnirarapa, who toured the whole area to find a place which suited him. Farmers are unwilling to sell, owing to the splendid future of this fertile district, and the price of this land, as a going concern, reached £45 an acre. It is estimated that the price of the land alone is £40 an acre. The previous owner had been milking a herd for some years. The recent dry weather, which had been causing anxiety to farmers, broke last night, when welcome rain fell. The rain continued to-day.
