FARMS OF THE DISTRICT.

HOW THEY WERE MADE. A HISTORY OF DEVELOPMENT. The country newspaper should be wide in its treatment of news and cognisant of the developments outside of the particular centre of population in which its office stands. There is news and general interest to bo found and felt in the farms and the settlements of "further back" just as much as in the doings of the town. Tt has been recognised everywhere- that the farmer takes interest in the town events, bub not so much recognition has been given to the fact that the town and city dwellers take an interest in the doings and experiences of the farmer: in his history and his experiments, his ventures and his results. Tt is in recognition of this fact that the "Horowhenua Chronicle" has begun its present series of articles, descriptive of the leading farms and farmers of the country.
