Pouerua Station

Pouerua Station (Hon. H. Williams, M.L.C., proprietor), Pakaraka, consists of 2700 acres. It is now leased to Mr. H. S. Ludbrook, of Tupetupe, Ohaeawal. The country is of a rich volcanic soll and undulating nature, and grazes two sheep to the acre. The stock are of a high class Lincoin Romney strain, with a fine herd of Shorthorns, all of a remarkably healthy character. Wheat and oats readily yield heavy crops, but the land is more suitable for sheep and cattle.
