Opinions of Tbe Press. We have been favored with a copy of the Star Almanack for 1887. It ia a surprisingly creditable production for a small town like Hawera, and the compilers nnd printers may reasonably feel satisfied with their work. The almanack contains a great variety of the most nseinl information, and consists ol no fewer than 261 pages, not including advertisements.— Wellington Press. The Star Almanack for this year, printed and published by Messrs. limes aud Co., of Hawera would do credit to any of the large offices in the principal commercial centres of the colony. Compiled with ability aud care, adapted to the wants of everyone, and containing "261 pa^es of printed matter omitting advertisements, the Star Almanack should find a place in every household throughout the district in which it is published.— Wangauui Chronicle. We acknowledge receipt from Messrs. lures and Co., of a copy of the Star Almanack for 1887. As usual, the publication contains much useful information, and should be found very valuable by every settler along this coast. It contains very correct directories of the towns of New Plymouth, Waitara, etc, as well as Hawera, Nonnanby , and other places. Every year this valuable almanack shows marked improvement, nnd we must congratulate the publishers on this evidence of success. The almanack is printed in first-lass style, on excellent paper, aud we can safely say that the general " get up " is equal to that of any similar publication in the Colony. — Titranaki News.

In fact it is rapidly becomiMK a settler's vade mecnm, and can give points to uuy almanack published on this coast.— Patea Mail. We have to ackuowledge receipt of the Haweju. Stab Almanack for 1887.
