| TIDINGS FROM NEW ZEALAND.
William Coad of Thomas, New Zea-
land, writes the following interesting
note to Mr. and Mrs Orestes HickOx:
In 1S49 the site on which Auckland is
| now built was large barren waste OF
land unoccupied even by Maoris, but
in September of that year 5000 acres
we're purchased from the Maoris on be-
half of the British crown for settle
ment purposes. AS soon as the pur-
chase was completed surveyors were
set to work to lay the same off into
blocks, and the first public sale OF lands
took place on the 10Th of April, 1941.
The sum realized at that sale was
e21, 400, equal to $lO7, 1876, which was
great contrast to what was given
the natives for the same. They re-
ceived in payment for the land so
blankets, $50 in money, equal to $3.50,
20 pairs Of trousers, 20 shirts, 10 waist
coats, 10 caps, four casks of tobacco,
one box of pipes, 100 yards Of gown
pieces, 10 iron pots, one bag of sugar,
one bag Of flour and 20 hatchets. l
think the only white man now alive of
those who attended the sale is DR.
Campbell the person whom L men
toned in my previous letter, who lived
with the Maoris for while down
near where we camped this summer,
and he still owns the land that he pur-
chased at that sale. From that time
up to the present the population Of
what is now Auckland city has grad
ually increased until now the total
population amounts to about $4,000 in
habitantS. 1t now possesses up to
date institutions of every kind, and
the architecture of it's buildings is
equal to that of any city of its size in the
world, although it is not yet possessed
Of the skyscraperS as are to be seen in
some of your American cities. 1t is
possessed, however, of an excellent
system of electric trans, a public H.
credit to many an older city, and a
splendid museum. Among its indus
tries, Auckland possesses fOundries,
breweries, biscuit factories, boat fac
tories, jam factories, clothing factories,
paper mills, shipbuilding yards, etc.
1t has two daily newspapers, morning
and evening publications respectively,
and several weekly papers. In it's har-
Dor, Auckland is possessed of one of
the best and prettiest in the world,
and also one of tie safest so far as
shipping is concerned. 1t has two
docks, one of them being the fourth
largest in the world, and at this latter
dock the British Admiralty are at the
present time erecting machinery, etc.,
with view to making the harbor an
auxiliary naval depot for the Australian
fleet, which, of course, is composed of
Britt h men-of-war. Imerely mention
these matters to show you that New
Zealand is a go-ahead colony, and that
Auckland city is one which we colon.

doubt destined to be a very important
place in the years to come. 1 may also

STRONG SERMON AT THE VILLAGE
CHURCH.
Rev A. H. Post delivered a most ex-
cellent sermon from his pulpit here,
last Sunday morning, from the text
found in John IA: 1919. He endea-
vored to show the power of Christian
ity upon the individual and upon the
world. He reasoned that although the
days of miracles are past, there are
now forces working in our every day
world which have produced changes
and revolutions as great as any miracle,
like the Subduing and ChriStianiZing
Of the Hawaiian Islands, and the trans
formation made by few earnest
Christian workers in New York City,
a few years ago, at the Five Points
mission. He believed it was the privi-
lege of every individual to believe and
believing a great work has and can be
done for evangelizing and Christianiz-
ing the home and community and
state and country in which we live,
and having done all we can "our call
ing and election is made sure of Ten
tering that undiscovered realm" that
''house not made with hands, eternal

delivery of his lecture, blending a
thorough knowledge of his subject
with good common sense and oca-
sional bits of happy humor which
held and riveted the attention of his
hearers and made a lasting impression
on their minds. Many homely truths
were hurled with telling effect at his
farmer friends. He told them of
many things OF which they were not
ignorant but to which, through long
custom, they had become Indifferent
or overlooked.
"The rains of this county, he told
them are harder for either dairy or
beef stock to contend with than the
extreme, though dry, cold of his own
state-MinnesOta. Cows require shelf
err from storms as well as food and
their food should not only be abundant
but diversified, nutritious and easily
assimilated SO that all their energy
may be employed in producing milk
of rich quality The various kinds
and relative value of food was dis
cussed and, in fact, he came danger
oUsly near adopting the old saying,
There's more in the feed than in the
breed" After giving a number of con-
else rules regarding the selection of
a good dairy COW he closed his lecture
and the session with the promise of
something better at the evening ses-
sion."
At the evening session Mr.. Blanch-
ard gave a good, sensible talk on
Business methods in farming" after
which Mr.. Smith gave his well known
lecture on Home Making"

sufficient Importance to demand and
receive the same systematic atten-
ton that is given to any other depart
ment of the farm. Dry, roomy and
comfortable quarters are indispensa-
BILE and perches should be 1x2 or Ike
Stats laid on the fiat. Dust beds are
necessary to destroy or at least keep
down the vermin. Poultry should be
given pure, fresh water at least twice
a day. Muk, either sweet or sour,
should also be given daily but should
not be alternated, but which ever is
given first should be continued. In
breeding poultry it is important to
begin with healthy, vigorous stock
and then to use every precaution to
Keep this health and vigor intact in
every bird you raise. Nests for hatch
ing purposes should be on the ground
solutely necessary for the successful
Matching of healthy chicks. Don't
for die the chicks when first Matched
or interfere with them. The hen will
attend to that. The hen need not be
fed at all the day she brings off her
brood and the chicks are better off
if not fed for 4S hours after leaving
the shell. Keep the hen confined to
her nest for at least "a hours after
the eggs begin to hatch. The best
rule for feeding all breeds of hens
is as follows: Each evening give
them heavy feed of grain; in the
morning give them half feed Of
mash consisting of two parts of bran
and one part of cracked corn wet with
sweet milk, or water if you haven't
the milk. The half feed in the morn.
ing is for the purpose of leaving the
hens hungry enough to scratch
through the day for the grain left over
from the evening feed. Keep green
food, such as cabbage and root vege-
tables, constantly before your hens.
The best means for keeping fowls
free from vermin is to use carboli-
neum. This should be put on the
under side of the perches and in the
corners of the nests. When you
white wash your hen house put some
of this preparation in the white wash
Mr. Blanchard's lecture was replete
with information and practical sugges-
tions, derived from actual experience
and placed the poultry question before
his listeners in an entirely new light
and one that will, undoubtedly, be of
great benefit to his hearers and great
ly stimulate the poultry industry in
