THE STAR ALMANACK AND DIRECTORY. OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. We have to acknowledge the receipt from the publishers of a copy of the Haweea Stab Almanac and Directory for 1893. A farther increase in the bulk of this useful volume is again shown by the addition of 80 pages of interesting matter. The Woodville directory has also been included, and the Dairy Industries Aefc, of 1892, has also been added to the reprints of statutes of special interest to. country readers. The Almanac is a complete compendium of every information suitable 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 useful a book. Tear by year the Stab Almanac has increased in size and usefulness, until 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 bock during the past year. Considering' the extent of country embraced by the directory, the information contained is surprisingly correct. Nothing Is more convincing of the astonishing progress the districts extending from the Whit« Cliffs to Foxton are making than a perusal of the Almanac and Directory for this year. In addition to the ordinary calendar, diary, and directory, a lot of information is given regarding th 9 rainfall, statistics of the .Registrars of Births, Deaths, and Marriages, and a gardener's calendar. Fnll /information regarding the Police, RM.^'District, and Supreme Courts, Cub ton? House, deceased persons' estates/ duties, and Wanganui Education I/istrict is also given. Under the heading of "The Farm" are very valuable agricultural notes. Fishing and sheeting regulations are also published. Che Postal and Telegraph Quide also contain a Borne very full and valuable infootnatiou. Sporting men will find a lalroif useful records of all the principal raoiife events. A compendium of statistics invaluable to settlers is also to be found, containing a digest of the Fencing Act, the Oattl«;and Sheep Acts, the Dog Registration Act, Fencing Act Amendment, etc. Information re stamp dutieß, Public Trust Office, Grown 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 support, and aa an advertising medium the book is yearly becoming more and more valuable. The general get-up, the letter-press, and arrangement of the volume is exceedingly creditable to the Star office and all connected with its publication. The almanac is one the whole district may feel prood of.— Stratford Se.ttler. One of the moßt useful Almanacs and West Coast directories is that published by Messrs Innes and Co., of the Star Office, Hawera. This annual production has considerably increased in size. In 1891 it consisted of 280 pages. This This year we notice it has 420 pages, It is full of information of value to the country settler, and is one of the best and cheapest shilling's worth in the colony. — Marton Mercury. We have to acknowledge with thanks the receipt of a copy of the Hawjbba Stab Almanac for 1893. Tear by year thia publication increases in value while published at the same price. The present issne consists of " nearly 300 pages of valuable information of everyday requirement, not the least of which 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 theyarelar too numerous and varied for mention, and we must content ourselves in saying that the man who is without a copy has overlooked the best investment on the coast.— Patea Press.
