gads bg gwxto, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 8. AT NOON. ! rpOWNSHIP -OF TTTAIHOU, TE AROHA DISTRICT, T H A M E S _ V ALLEY. MESSRS S. COCHRANE & SON Have received instructions from Messrs Campbell Bros, to « SELL BY PUBLIC AUCTION; . At their Mart, Fort street, Auckland, On Wednesday, December 8, at 12 o'clock Noon, moWN AND SUBURBAN ALLOTX ' * v . MENTS OF WAIHOU, Aiao, RURAL AND FARM SECTIONS, OF FROM 4 ACRES TO 200 ACRES. Together with THE ARDMORE HOME FARM Of 635 Acres. In placing this property before the Public*, the vendors would draw attention to the "opportunity now afforded of acquiring property which, if we had only to consider the advantages for settlement afforded by the Great Thames Valley, would entitle this to be considered one of the safest investments that has ever been offered in Auckland ; but in view of the rapid advance ?n the value of property which must result from the early influx of the large numbers of English Farmers* introduced by Grant and Foster, who are shortly to arrive for the purpose of settling in its immediate vicinity, and the OPENING 01 THE Tb ABOHA GrOEMIBED, they are enabled to say that it presents not only an opportunity for safe investment, but a probability in the immediate future of a rapid increase fn value which does not often present itself. . They need not remind the public of the extraordinav/ advnees that have taken place of late yeevt in the value of Waikato Town, Suburban, and Country Land generally, land which was originally bought at low prices being now worth very large sums per acre—the investment of £50 having in more than one instance returned £2CWor £8600. Investment in this property is further recommended by the fact that 12 months ago Messrs Campbell offered for sale at Hamilton, Waikato, the first portion of this township, which was then eagerly bought by local purchasers, the allotments then sold are marked op the plans, which em now be obtdned of the auctioneers; but the great progress made in the district since the date of that sale, and the many additional advantages cannot fail to accrue from' the vicinity of a mining population, make investment in these lands far more desirable than at that period, j The Town-hip is situate on the main road from Hamilton and Cambridge, which is also met by the Matamata Road, and here elso the North and South Waitoa Roads meet, so that all traffic between the Waikato Districts and the Goldfield must oonverge here. There is daily communication front Auckland by river, rail, and coach, and mails are regularly delivered from the local Post Office. THE HOMESTEAD FARM Of the ARDMORE ESTATE, Containing 635 acres of first-class Land, all fenced and sub-divided,"with good house of six rooms, store-room, and dairy, splendid barn and hay loft, with 8-staH stable, out- i houses, cowsheds, loose boxes, etc. A great deal of planting has been done on the property, and from its situation, adjoining the new township of Waihou, and close to the Te Aroha Goldfield, offers a splendid opportunity for carrying on a successful dairy I farm., . ;'..•'.•. The proposed central railway station for the Thames-Waikato Railway is within a quarter of a mile of thiß property, and with the advance of the district it would be difficult to over-estimate its ultimate value. Plans can be obtained from the Auctioneers. 1 Title under the Land Transfer Act. Terms at sale. 1471 Wanted WANTED Know-nr-OYSTERS arrived* This Day at A.
