TE MAPARA.
Own Correspondent. Mr Armstrong, Commisisoner of Crown Lands, and Mr Hesiop. a member of the Taranaki Land Board, were in through this settlement last week, adn were very pleased with the progress made by settlers. Some of the settlers are now milking a few cows and are getting a very fair return off the young grass. When the pastures are a few years older I believe the Mapara land will hold its own with the best in the DomiJUfID for milking purposes if the Go-
then afford to get, manure to improve the land.
1 think if either the Pio Pio or Te Kuiti Co-Operative Butter Factory Companies would make up their minds, and have a branch creamery built here this summer, ready for next spring, when I think there will be from 250 to 300 cows milked, to have a creamery built on the site left for the purpose by the and Board, it would be a good thing for the settlement, and it would increase every year in output.
