FULLER particulars will be furnished oa application, and i ntending Bayers or Lessees, who do not see anything in this list I to suit them, are invited to send me a noto o£ their requirements, which shall receive prompt and personal attention, fl®* In order to remove erroneous impressions as to the taxation of the Taranaki district, the following facts and figures are sup--1 plied : All Lands, whether ia town, villages, or country, situated on the line of coast between Mokan on the north, and on either side of Mount Egmont i as far as, but not including, Hawera | on the south, are Chargeable with the New Plymouth Harbour rate o£ ! three farthings in the £ on the capital value, as determined trienn ally by the Property Tax Assessment. Thus, a property valued at £IOOO pays £3 2s 6d per annum. County Rates. In the Taranaki County the rates amount to One Penny (id) in the £, and in Clifton County ONE FT A HP. PENNY (id), in each case, inclusive of the levy for Hospital and Charitable Aid. The District Road Rates vary from Jd to yd in the £, but in some districts no rate is struck. It will thus be seen that the greatest rating in any Country District is 2id in the £. viz.. Harbour Jd, County Id' and Road Board mouth, the total Municipal Kates amount to 2s 9d in the £ on ANNUAL valuation, and include an abundant and constant supply of pure water. The Harbour Rate is equal to Is in the £, making total rating 3a 9d in the £, or rather less than one-fifth of tha amount of rental. F. P. CORKILL, National Bank Chambers, Row Plymouth.
