Farming Enterprise.
Mr Firth, m the management of the Matnmata estate, Waikato, has shown other farmers many useful lessons. He has subjected the management to some™ thing like business principles. Not m one department, but m all, is there to be seen evidence of a mind well acquainted with the ways and methods okirausaofc-* ing ordinary business on a large scale. This knowledge, acquired m other departments of trade, is" being applied to the farm management, as far as circumstances will admit. At the present time . Mr. Firth has called for tenders for carting about a thousand tons of wheat from hi-* (station to Stanley, the point where the navigation on the Thames river begins. This will be about 40,000 bushels of wheat, which he expects to receive this harvest. He also seeks tenders for carting fifteen hundred tons of pressed hay to the sanie place.' These quantities bespeak of j firming bo a large scale.
