Midhibst stands in the centre of one of the richest and most magnificent tracts of agricultural laud in New Zealand, and being on the Trunk Line of Railway, and having roads radiating from the town into the rich surroundin"- country, possesses advantages unequalled by those of any other inland town. Midhirst is exactly half-way between Hawera and New Plymouth, being 22 miles distant from each place. The Railway from New Plymouth will, in the coarse of a few months, be opened to Midhirst, where the Wanganui and Wellington coach will meet the train. A large portion of the country round Midhirst has been sold as a small farm settlement, and occupied by bona lido settlers. The absence of timber for cither fencing, firewood, or building purposes on the open plains of Patea, Hawera, and Waimate, will create a brisk demand for the excellent timber in the neighborhood of Midhirst as soon as the line is open for traffic. Large sums of money are now being expended on public works in and around Midhirst, and investors will do well to embrace this opportunity of securing allotments _ in wliAt promises to be one of the most flounsuing inland towns in New Zealand. 11.
