This Valuable Property is situated 11 miles from Oanmru, and 3 miles from the Maheno Railway Station, and is well watered.

In drawing the attention of buyers to this very desirable investment, the Auctioneer would point out that, owing to Dr. Webster having used this Farm wholly for his stud flock of sheep, there have been no white crops taken off the land for a number of years : and all the green crops grown have been fed off on the ground, thereby much increasing the value of the land for cropping purposes, and ensuring splendid returns when next broken up for cereals. Terms very liberal. A. H. MAUDE, 187 Auctioneer.
