Clothier and Co. to offer this very fine and favorably-known • estate BY PUBLIC AUCTION. AT WAIHOU SALE YARDS. ON FRIDAY, 27th JULY, 1917, AT 11 a.m. SHARP.

This property comprises some of the finest dairying land in the Thames Valley, and it is only on rare occasions that land of this class and quality comes on tc the open market. The Elstow Estate comprises 700 acres all in good pasture, and subdivided into 10 small dairy farms. The owners are thns meeting the demand for small farms where a family can follow intense farming and manage themselves without being dependent on outside labor. The property is situated close to Te Aroha, which is famous for its public baths and mineral waters. Railway and factory facilities are convenient, and a public school is on the property, which is an important consideration when the help of the elder children is required before and after school houns. Two particularly outstanding features of this propertv are the very fine barberry hedges by which it is bounded and subdivided, affording shelter for stock and attractiveness to almost every allotment, and its artesian water supply, which emits from the various bores 200 to 1000 gal-

lens per hour. The terms offered will be such as will make it comparatively easy for the man with small capital to get in and participate in the big profits now ruling for the Dominion's produce.
