We have reason to believe (says tho "Hawke's Bay Herald") xhat an area of approximately 10,000 acres id the Tutira district has been acquired from, the Crown by a syndicate of Hawke's Bay business men tor the purposo of afforestation; The soil of the area, in question is of light pumice formation of the type which abounds in . the areas rouijd Wn'akarewarowa, so successfully planted by the State Forestry Department. Given capable Mipervision" and adequate capital there is no roason to doubt that tfee planting of this bloeS of Hawke's Bay country will ultimately be a profitable undertaking for those concerned, besides being a. valuable, asset for HawWs Bay in general, and the Tutira district in particular.. The rainfall is a ' fraction over 60 inches per aiiuum, it is easy rolling country, and is* traversed by the East. Coast railway line and two. good metal roads, with unlimited supplies of metal on the epot for further loading when necessary. ,
