LAND NOTICES. EAST Sc -. EAS T, WELLINGTON. AUCKLAND DISTRICT. PARTICULARS OP THAMES VALLEY FARM. 1001 ACRES-JM 10s. PEE ACES. This property is situated six miles from thriving township and railway station, and consists of 1801 ACHES Freehold, and is a piece ot as fine country as anyone could wish to clap eyes on. The situation is exceedingly pod, lying as it does at the foot of the range; Doing iu tins position it gets a far greater rain, fall than the rest of the district, and also has the benefit of the perpetual "wash-ofi" tho nils—thus ensuring that tho soil is always being renewed. There is a lino metalled road tho property. This property is known- rjl ovpr New Zealawl for its famous fattening qualities. Thero ! s /' ver . v small frontage to the main road, put tho property widens out like a fan, and tnero is. a private metalled road extending from the main road to the house, a distance ot one mile, and this road leads right through tho fattening paddocks—thus making it narlini- , \ larly easy to lay oft dairy, farms-giving this road as an' access. This road is fraced for tho whole distance both sides of tho road with eight wire sheep-proof fencing. 700 Acres of this property was onlr felled and grassed last year, and is n perfect "picture thero being a magnificent sole of grass. Wo understand that 501b. of seed to the acre was sown on this bush burn, and wo never have seen anyt'iing finer than the result in all our' experience. Under 200 Acres of bush still remain t6 be felled on the property in various ■clumps—the first piece being about 70 Acres. This is all valuable good bush. , Tho general lie'- of the country is,about 700 Acres of rich/ fattening flats on the! frontage, and then there is a low range of hills rising igradually off the flat to an 'average height' of I'about 100 ft. There are three lagoons, several lundred yards in length, on these table landn. i'Thero is only one corner of the property which could bo described as hilly, and that consiata ot about 120 Acres, all of which, however, is first-class sheep country. The formation on tha fiats'is all a rich gray' deposit, and , the whole of. this country has been tile drained. On the hills, tho formation is a rich chocolate loam, with a-Bort of limestone and stone rubble running through it. The shecp'have been on tho place for>"2o years, and this fact speaks for itself. A,-good portion'of this place has been dr.iried on by,the late owner, and on 1200 Acres ho was '-carrying 150 dairy cows, 200 head of store cattle, and 2000 sheep. Wo think that thin witi''Satisfy as to the carrying capacity, ond thorcf was ample feed all through tho winter. Tho '.Stock, .which are now ,on tho place, can beebad at valuation. . ,: BUILDINGS. Tho 1 Buildings on this property are exceptionally'" n°ml. There is a really, fine modern 10-rbonied house, having every, convenience—hot and '.cold water inside, w.c.'s, and every sani- . that can be desired. Thero is also ■another G-roomcd house suitable for working.manager, or for anyone milking on shares; ■■ and also another G-roomed bouso very much , : out' of repair, but which would not take nioroithaii .£IOO to put. in order. These' two ■ buildLags;',would be very useful if shifted on to oilier- portions of tho' farm in the event of it being' cut up. There ;is a remarkably fine shed,-comStete floor, and exceptionally fine loft, whicliNwas originally built as a niilking-skcd, and contains 44 bails. This shed has. the water .laid oniiboth sides, go'that'by turning a tap they dould flush the whole shed with a powerful stream of water. This shed has a lean-to . stable ;.for. machinery, and the whole would make tone of the finest woolsheds to be seen a.uy where, with very little alteration. Thero is .'also another large cowshed (24 bails), and aixwoolshed with shearing machines installed* I driven by turbine, thero being a fine and permanent flow of water. The plantations round the'.houso arc excellent and very numerous. TKcrii'are also large stables, and innumerablo.'boultry yards: aud houses. Thero are no noxious weeds on the- place that we are. aware of4-npt having come across- any in the course ofHtfo or three visits thero. Tho position of this place must always bo a great asßet to it. The' markets are at ono'a door—the £oldfields on one side of. Auckland, and- tho.'stock sales held at Waihi are admittedly ithe most important in the Waikatoj these- yaiidKvare only a few miles from the property. It costs 2d. per head to send fatsheep to iAdbkland, and-only'a few shillings per head format cattle. _,• Wo-haveviio hesitation in saying that tho man whodbiiys this property,has a big thing on, either to farm or sell again at a vory handsomo.ojrpfit indeed. .
