I ...__ - , ■ —1 WAIPUKURAU THE CENTRAL H.B. TO WANSHIP. Waipukukal’ is situated on the Main Line —Napier Wellington —and is 44 miles from Napier and 167 from Wellington. There is a population of about 900 people in tho Town Board area, and about 1410 in the Waipukuran County Council area, Waipukuran is an important railway centre, and the stopping ■ place for all trains, four trains arriving from the north and rive i from the south daily. Waipukuran is also the stopping place for I a most important back country —-Wanstead, Wallingford and i Porangahau —extending on the south east side for a distance of some 30 miles. A daily coach service runs to these parts. The town occupies a commanding position, and being buik | on a small rise presents a pretty picture. The grow-th of trees ; in the town area adds to its attractiveness. 1 The toAvn is possessed of the full complement of institutions Masons, Foresters, Oddfellows and Good Templars (juvenile and adult), having good lists of members, Avhile 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 aie 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 Waipukuran, occupying a very high position above the sea, is considered the sanatorium of the province.
