Tbe Town Sections now offered are quite equal, if not superior, m position to those which at the sale of the other part of the town a week ago realised*' from £30 to £120 the quarter-acre. On the Suburban Sections, which lie along the Kiwitea stream, are to be found some of the finest clumps of totara m the country. One large saw-mill is now being erected two miles north of this town, and Cheltenham must be the centre of a large timber trade, which the extension of the Kimbolton road is rapidly developing. V.The Village of Stanway. This ..village comprises 24 small sections. It is situated at the junction of the Stanway and Makino roads, two of the main metalled roads on the Manchester Block. The whole of the country round this village being occupied, an opportunity is offered, by the subdivision and sale of this reserve, for the sawmill or other laborers about to make a convenient freehold homa for themselves. The land is clear of bush, and as the village of Stanway is at the junction of the three metalled roads leading to Halcombe, Feilding, and Marton, it is a favorable situar tion for a store, a blacksmith's shop, a carpenter, and a few other tradesmen. Plans of the several blocks may be obtained from Mr. C. P. Powles, Hunter street, Wellington ; or if applied for by post or telegraph to Messrs. Halcombe and Shbewill, Feildiug, will be forwarded by first post free to any part of the Colony. TERMS OF SALE. -1.
