A correspondent, writing from Stratford, state? :—"Great pleasure is evinced here at the news that Mr. Crowther, M.H.R., and others from your district are proposing to pay us a visit via the Stratford route. You will be glad to hear that a buggy can now be driven in 40 miles at this end. Another twelve months of steady work should enable us to drive right through. Since Mr. Cadman, Minister for Native Affairs, came through a few years ago, the population of Stratford has increased from about 400 to fully 1500, arid the country east of-Stratford along the road to Auckland has been taken up for 30 miles."
