Driver, whose ages range from 23 years down to 16. As a youth, Mr. Driver, senior, was a printer before adopting farming as his life’s work 37 years ago, when he was 19 years of age. In all, he developed five farms in the Pukekohe, Waikato, Manurewa and Clevedon districts, the last-named farm of 750 acres having been acquired 11 years ago.
