COUNTRY v. TOWN.
A section o£ land m Marton has just changed hands at an advance of one hundred per cent, on the price paid for it three years ago.— Rangitikei Advocate. When the subject of va'uation was being mentioned last evening at the Borough Council, one Councillor ez« pressed an opinion which is to be a certain extent indicative of the times Tt was to the effect that a reduction of 60 per cent on last year'b valuations would be acceptable all round. Recent sales of landed property have given a very good id«a of the value of town sections now, as compared with prices pa'defen two or three years back, and this fact will doubtless be boroe m mind by the valuators, whoever they may 1 be. — WanKauui Herald.
