A farther increase in the bnlk of this naefnl volame is again shown by the addition of 80 pages of interesting matter. The Woodville directory has also been included, and the Dairy Industries Act, of 1892, bas also been added to the reprints of statutes of special interest to country readers. The Almanac is a complete compendium of every information statable to the requirements of the settler, and as such should find a place in every household.— Waimate Witness. Once again we have to acknowledge the receipt of this much valued publication, and to congratulate the publishers on issuing so usefnl a book. Year by year the Stab Almanac has increased in size and usefulness, an til it has now, besides being a capital almanac and directory, become a complete settlers' guide and companion. An additional 71 pages have been added to the book during the past year. Considering the extent of country embraced by the directory, the information contained is Burprißingly correct. Nothing is more convincing of the astonishing progress the districts extending from the White Cliffs to Foxton are making than a perusal of the Almanac and Directory for this year. In addition 1 to the ordinary calendar, diary, and directory, a lot of information is given regarding the rainfall, statistics of the Registrars of Births, Deaths, and Marriages, and a gardener's calendar. Full information regarding the Police, 8.M., District, and Supreme Courts, Custom House, deceased peraooß' estates duties, and Wanganui Education District is also given. Under the heading of "The Farm" are very valnable agricultural notes. Fishing.and sh ooting regulation! are also published. The Postal and Telegraph Guide also contains some.very f nil and valnable information. Sporting men will find a lot of useful records of all the principal racing events. ■ A compendium of statistics invaluable to settlers is also to be found, containing' a digest of the Fencing Act, the Cattlejand - Sheep Acts, the Dog Registration Act, Fencing Act Amendment, etc. Information re stamp duties, Pablio Trust Office, Crown grants, and a mass of New Zealand and Australian statistics of considerable interest and value are also to be found. The business people of the district have also given the book a generous srpport, and aa an advertising medium the book is yearly becoming more and more valuable. The general get-up, the letter-press, and arrange* ment of the volame is exceedingly creditable to the Star office and all connected with its publication. The almanac is one the whole district may feel proud of.— Stratford Settler» One of the most v eful Almanacs and West Coast directories is that published by Messrs Innes and Go., of the Star Office, Hawera. This annual production has considerably increased in size. In 1891 it consisted of 2$Q pages. This This year we notice it ha[s,42o pages, It is full of information of value to the country settler, and is one of the beat and cheapest shilling's • worth in the colony. — Marton Mercery. We have to acknowledge with thanks [ the receipt of a copy of the Haweba [ Stab Almanac f0r.1893.' Year by year thia publication increases in value while published at the. same price. The present issue consists of " nearly 300 pagea of valuable information of eVaryday requirement, not th* least of wlioh is a .carefully "compiled directory of the coast and ''intermediate centres from •Palmerston North to New Plymouth. It is however, beyond possibility to give*, anything like an epitome of its contents' as they are far too^nnmeroua and varied for mention, and we muat content oarselvee in saying that the man who is without a copy has overlooked the best investment on the coast.— Patea Press. % j ETAL STAMPS' manufactured •* k at the Bta^ Office.
