Stock-yard, Sheep-yard, and Wool-BhecL Three acres of orchard trees, *in full bearing, and of true sorts. The whole of the aoreag© is securely enclosed with excellent live fences, and subdivided into eight paddocks. Several streams intersect the property, affording ample accommodation for sheep-washing requirements, anel plenty of water-power for mill purposes. Three hundred acres have been put under; the plough, and sown with English grasses. Seventy acres have been turned and laid down, as permanent pasture ; the remaining portion of the land is partially grassed, and yields good rough feed in its present state. Fifty acres of bush land afford an abundant supply of firewood and timber, suitable for fencing and building purposes. This very desirable property was one of the earliest selections in the Eangitikei district, and from ita excellent position on the main, line of road to Wellington, nearly equi-distanfe between the postal and telegraph towns of Turakina and Mar ton, only five miles from either, has advantages which few other blocks of land possess. In its present state it is capable of depasturing 400 head of cattle, but with some further burning off, its carrying capacity could be considerably increased.
