The Horsley Down Estate was selected some 33 years ago by the late owners, Messrs Mallock and Lance and has the reputation of being one of the best properties in North Canterbury for cropping, dairying and grazing, the output of fat cattle' sheep and lambs every year being very considerable. The estate is situated midway between Ha warden and Medbury Railway Stations' on the Northern Trunk Railway, ahout 55 miles from Christchurch, and is bounded on the east by the railway line. Prom Hawarden Railway Station the nearest part of the estate is two miles and a quarter, and the furthest five miles and three-quarters. Erom Medbury Railway Station the nearest part of the estate is one mile and a half and the furthest six miles. Good, level, metalled roads connect the estate with both stations. The Township of Waikari, where there is a good monthly stock market, is seven miles discant from the estate over a level, metalled road. With the exception of parts of Sections Nos. 12 and 20,. which are downs rising to an altitude of 1260 ft., the land is and level, ranging from 800 ft. to 950 ft. above the sea level. It is of variable quality, from light and stony to heavy, drained swamp land • but the bulk of it is a soil from 6in. to 6ft. in depth, capable of growing good crops. Nearly the whole of the estate has been cultivated' and is now in English grasses. The land has grown good crops of wheat, oats, rape and turnips, and is in good heart, as the cropping was done with good judgment. The estate is highly improved by substantial wire fences, tile-drained swamps, and well-grown plantations. The property has been subdivided into areas which afford opportunities to all classes of-settlers. Except in the case of two sections, there are permanent running streams and water races all over the estate. The attention of intending settlers is drawn to the method of dealing with the buildings on Sections Nos. 1 and 10. The tenant, by paying the half-yearly instalments will become the owner of them in fourteen years, or, should he prefer to do so, he may, with the consent of the Minister and the Land Board, elect to pay for the whole in any shorter period, but not less than seven years.
