Rolling pasture land between Matapiro and Crownthorpe, Hawke’s Bay, is shown on our cover this month.

The treestudded paddocks in the foreground and buildings ringed by plantations further back are on Tunanui Station, the property of Sir Andrew Russell, who commanded the New Zealand Division in the First World War.
