It is now proposed (lull ii ) similar school he held at (he Wcraroa •• Central Development Karni in the - mouth of April. Tim manager of Hie • Curm (Mr W. J. Mc.Culloch) lias . arranged a courne of instruction which ■ is of a varied an<l utilitarian chara<:lcr, • and cannot fail to produce excellent i results from :in educational and i practical point of view. The various > branches of the /'iirmrra' Union have , been approached upon the subject, 1 ;uid they are displaying considerable :• enthusiasm in the matter. The , manager is desirous, however, that - the names of those who intend availi ing themselves of I his splendid oppori (unity of acquiring practical luiow- • ledge of those things thai count in t up-to-dato farming should lie eom--1 inunlcated lo him at once, so Dial he I may make the necessary arrangements ■- as to catering, etc. The value of the i school need not be emphasised. The . farmer .should be the llrst to appref ciute its benefits, and there is little . doubt that if the Wcraroa school is : the success it is expected to be, It. will J become a permanent institution.
