— By Telegraph — Copyright) .
Nelson, Tuesday. Aij a meeting of the Cawthron Trust Board, Mr. J. Corder, chairman of the Waimea County Council, ref erred to an inspection he had made of 80 acres of Pakihi land at Onekaka recently reclaimed by Mr. F. G. Gibbs in connection with the Cawthron Institute. Mr. Corder stated that he had been astounded to find such unpromising- land had been brought into excellent condition for dairying in so short time. Mr. K. J. Holyoake, M.P., a new member of the board, said he too had visited Mi*. Gibbs' Pakihi farm, and found it almost impossible to believe that what now appeared to be good farming land, had only a year ago been in the useless condition of thp surrounding property.
