About 10 miles of seven-wire fence has lately been erected; this, with the numerous good natural boundaries and about 5 miles fencing material, now ready for erection, will divide the property into six sections. This property is situated about thirtyfive miles from Napier, the inland coach road passes right through its breadth, and it has a frontage to the Mohaka River of about 20 miles, with numerous neverfailing streams, tributaries of that river, running through the property. On the two blocks there are about 60,000 acres of rich pastoral hills and downs, about 30,000 acres medium and light do., and the remainder bush. Besides the natural grass, of which there is a good amount, there are several hundred acres in different parts which have been sown with artificial grasses, and all doing well. At present the run would carry 15,000 sheep, and will yearly increase in carrying capacity by burning off the fern and stocking alone, while if outlay is undertaken in sowing artificial grasses, the property could be made in a very few years to carry 130,000 sheep, while the, wool from this country' is known as sound and healthy, and the lambings have been most satisfactory. If it is found desirable on the day of auction, the property may be put up in two lots, the Tatara-o-Kina Block with 40,000 acres and 5000 sheep, and the Tarawera Block with 90,000 acres and the same number sheep and the homestead.
