The land open for sale on this Block consists of the back portion, and has been subdivided into lots of areas indicated' The quality of soil is everywhere good, and is generally covered with a dense growth of fern and tutu on the hills, with deep gulliea generally with bush on them, and plentifully supplied with water. The surface is formed of a series of ridges, averaging some 120 0 feet high; with little or no level land. It is, however* well adapted for Bmall sheep runs. The bush found in the gullies is generally light, consisting principally of Kowhai, Titoki, Tawa, and a little Totara and Bimu here and there. Grass seems to take well where the fern has been burnt off. On adjacent lands near the coast the k fern has very generally disappeared from ; the bills, before the fires and the sheep, and they are now covered with a fine sward of the "native poa" grass, which seems to extend itself immediately the surface is denuded of fern, and these earn* hills-are described as having been a few years since covered, with fern and tutu as the country now open in the Wairoa Blook.
