WAIPUKURAU THE CENTRAL ILB. TOWNSHIP. WAIPUKURAU is situated on the Main Line —Napier to Wellington mK l i s 44 miles from Napier and 167 from Wellington. There is a population of about 900 people in the Town Board area,'And I about 1410 in the Waipukurau County Council area, Waipukurau is an important railway centre, and the stopping place for all trains, four trains arriving from-tlie north and five the south daily. Waipukurau is also the stopping place foi a most important back country —Wanstead, Wallingford and PorangaNau —extending on the south east side for a J distance of some 30 miles. A daily coach service runs to these parts. The town occupies a commanding’ position, and being built | on a small rise presents a pretty picture. The growth of trees in the town area adds to its attractiveness., The town is possessed of the full complement of institutions Masons, Foresters, Oddfellows and Good Templars (juvenile and adult), having good lists of members, while the churches are represented by the Anglican, Presbyterian, and Roman Catholic. There are three or four halls in the town, the Town Hall, capable of seating about 400 people being the largest. The development of the resources of the district, by the ■ cutting up of large estates, both by the Government and private individuals, has had the effect of drawing attention ■to the nature of the country, and it is safe to say that there is no part of New Zealand which has such a vast area of fertile country. It is eminently suited to the raising of sheep, cattle, and horses, while abundant crops of all classes of cereals aic reaped. .... Being the centre of a great stock producing centre, the Associated Auctioneers hold fortnightly sales at the local yards — the largest in the province—whilst Messrs Williams and Kettle and the New Zealand Loan and Mercantile Agency Company hold periodical sales of horses at the Tavistock Yards. Hawke’s Bay is noted for the geniality of its climate, and Waipukurau, occupying a very high position above the sea, is considered the sanatorium of the province. ■ WAIPUKURAU PRESS Is tlie Only Paper published in the Town, and is printed TUESDAYS, THURSDAYS & SATURDAYS.
