Tne Land is Fat and the Soi a r Chocoate Loam. a THE TOWN OF HOKOPITO is the I natura Centre of the Great WaimarJna i'orest. which embraces tens of thousands of acres of the finest milling hush of the Colony, leased by tbe Crown to hundreds of settlers under the Leasehold Clauses of the Land Act. Many of these Leasehold- - ers, in a radius of twenty miles of Horopito, art- now arranging with svndieates of 1 sawmillc-rs to cut out the timber under J Royr.lties. and. within two years, the whole ' of that vast extent of inagnifleont country •will be humming with countless sawmills end other industries, bringing population and wealth in Ihcir wake. j THE TOWN OF HOROPITO stands alone in that great district in this respect. It is the only large Freehold Block, all the rest of the country 'being leased from ; the Government in sections or reserves by the Crown for special purposes. This fact gives it a special value, as no Town can look for permanent improvements and j continned importance unless its piopli- own the Fre&hold of its soil. . The TOWN OF HO.tOPITO is within '. twenty chains of the Horopito Railway ( Station, on the Main Trunk Line. This is ; also the Railway Station Which will se-ve the rxisting Township of JJaetihj. For | J fuliy half a century the Town of Horopitu ( must be. one of the groat sawmiUing and ' dairying centres of the colony. Large and : important as arc the Towns or Palmers- ! ( ton North and Dannevirke. all experts | ' agree that the Town of Horopito will in a .■ brief period surpass them both in its sizp, ] its population, the volume of its trade, and ots general prosperity. The Town of • Horopito has already been cleared and < laid down in English grass ■which, with a view to its settlement as a great Business ; Centre is of special siyniticancc. So well is j this fact understood th3t already nuite a! ■ I number of persons arc temporarily settled i (in tents and wharves upon the Xtaln-inad : ;in front of the New Town, and. while ! waiting for the sale, axe carrying I 1 ! business as Storekeepers, Butchers, iilae's- ! ' smiths, etc.. some three or four hnndrrd :; !men being, engaged on the Railway Works : j close to the Town of Horopito, ami diaw- ! ing their supplies from there for seven j I miles each way. . i As a speculation or investment, no New ! Town has ever been offered in the North ' , Island of New Zealand that presented ' quite the same advantages as tie Town of Horopito. For the last Sve years the constant thought of .many clpar. far-sighted I men has been "that'a Great Central Town will be created in tie Waimarino, between Auckland and Wellington. It must Ihe good laud, so that, after the sawmills 1 have done their work, it will be available j jor settlement by Dairy Farmers and 1 others Where will it bej" It was In- ! presible to say until the iSilway ha<T progressed towards a finish. That time tin* now anived, and the answer to-day is that the Great eCntral Town will be Horopito. Visit and examine t!«e district. Look at i each of the small townships created by the 1 Government and you will become absolut?lv convinced that Horoptfo is the Great ■ Natural Centre of the Interior of the Nortu jslaid. Apart altogether from its prospective Commercial and Industrial Im- . nortance, the Town of Horopito will be a favourite visiting place for Tourists and ■" Visitors The railway journey even to-d-iy is of surpassing interest. The great chain ■ lof volcanic mountains, covered wi\h snow, and with the eternal Qres of Ngauruhoe. ' Tongariro, and Ruape.hn. sending their smoke to the heavens, will attract thon- 1 sand? of visitors both from Auckland anu Wellington. 1 In order to eompiy with the wishes of a force number of intending purchasers ni Auckland, the sale will take place in that City the Hon.
