Waiuku (formerly of Klnt Hu h), who is one ot our earliest settlers, and has been for maio years closely connected with every effort to pro mote the agricultural interests of the Auckland district, writes as follows:— "Dear Sir..— I havo much pleasure In addin>my mite in warm commendation of Bkett's Colonist s' Guide. It is a book that should be. not only in every fanner's library, but should also be on evert colonist's book-shelf, no matter in what line of colonial industry he or she maj be engaged There is information for all. In looking back over a pf»rod of U years' of hard colonial work how much valuable time and money mighthavc been saved if at the beginning such u fund of info i mat ion had been available to guide us as is now within the reach of all in the shape of Hrett'8 Guide. Colon sts, who desire to n< worthy of the name, should not, from its elegant appearance or the quality of tho material, make it a drawing - room book, to be looked at and admired as one would a picture or a curio; they should have it on the mantle-shelf, the sofa, or the corner of the table ; in fact, anywhere so that the eye of Father, Mother, Johnny, and Jenny, and even the helps may have a chance of looking at it during spare minutes in the heat of summer or the inclemency of winter. Mr Brett has shown pluck in bringing out such a book, has been exceedingly fortunate in the selection of his contributors, and 1 sincerely hope it will prove a financial success." Mr George Holpsiiip, Managing Director of [he Auckland I imber Company, and a practical colon ist of long experience, writes :— "Pir,— I have looked over your Settlers' Gutde. and consider it one of the most useful and valuable b'*okft for tho New Zoalam 1 settler ever published. The information is so varied, and {he ndvice so practical. A single paragraph will often be found worth more than the cosl of the book. Mr T. W. Htckson. Kstate Agent, Auckland, has contributed the following:—"I have much pleasure in stating that, having carefully examined into Brett's Colonists' ftiUDE, I have no hcaitntion in saying I consider it good value for the yriwj osked for it. in fact, worth ten and twenty tinics the money to almost an> one engaged in rural industries." From a Pukekohe Settler, Pukekoho, December 1, 1888. *' Dear Sir,— I have recently been presented by a friend of mine with a copy of your valuable work, '» HB t WjONISTs' Guide.
