The estate was taken up in the early days of the colony by Mr Rawson, who recognised the value the land would have when properly drained, cleared and grassed. For some years past extensive operations have been carried on in drainage works, which .have proved most successful, the property now being intersected by main and cross drains, effectively carrying off the water, and leaving a good peaty soil, capable of growing anything, and forming some of the best dairying land in or about Wellington. The laud is practically all LEVEL, thert being a few easy slopes on the eastern and western boundaries, admirably suited for the erection of homestead and farm buildings, as from these gentle rises an uninterrupted view of the whole valley can bt obtained, whilst the valley, itself is well sheltered from all winds, and lies to the north, being well exposed to the sun. The soil is all that can be desired for dairying purposes, being of good depth, estimated to be over 20ft, and is, moreover, essentially a warm soil, forming an excellent bottom for grass, which takes well and quickly, as may be seen on the land itself and on the surrounding holdings.

The Mungaroa Valley has been settled for many years, and is well known as beinc both fertile and productive, and is especially adapted for dairying fi'om its proximity to the railway and the city of Wellington, thereby enabling the dairyman to get his products to a ready market without loss of time. The attention of buyers is particularly drawn to the fact that the farms about to be offered for sale consist of practically the last of the level land suitable for dairying which is obtainable within easy distance of Wellington, the premier shipping port of the colony. The terms offered are within the means of all classes of buyers, comprising a cash deposit of 10 per cent, at the time of sale, and a further deposit of 15 per cent, within six months, the balance of the purchase money may remain for five or seven years at 5 per cent., with power to pay off at any time.
