FARMERS’ TOUR
SOUTHLAND PARTY TO TRAVEL Good progress has been made with the booking of Southland farmers and their families in connection with a tour of the North Island next month. The South business agent of the Railways Department states that the party, which will be limited to 300 persons, will leave Invercargill on Jul}’ 5' and arrive at New Plymouth the following evening. The tourists will spend two days in Taranaki and will then proceed to Auckland and Rotorua, visiting the Arapuni hydro-elec-tric works en route. Hamilton and the Ruakura State farm, as well as some of the more important dairy factories, will then receive inspection, after which the Hawke’s Bay centres will be visited before proceeding to Wellington via the Wairarapa line. Two days will be spent in the Capital City and the party will arrive back in Invercargill on July 19, after a fortnight of pleasureable and instructive sight-seeing for a moderate financial outlay.
