Offing to the rapid extension of agriculture and rural industries of all kinds throughout the colony, the proprietor of the Auckland Stab believes the interests of those engaged in sucb industries demand the establishment of an agri cultural journal Of a mere corn prohenslvo chaf aeter aad wider scope ef usefulness than any now published In this colony.

He has purchased and will Incorporate with the now Journal the agricultural publication so long issued uader Una title of "The North New Zealand Settler and Country Magazine." Tho new journal will be twice the idee of the " Settler," with an ornamental ooleure* cover; and care will be taken to make it equally useful aa a medium of practical lnfcrmatf on upon ail topics connected with rural pursuits to resident* in all part, of New Zealand. It will bo the pro prietor's aim to adopt the best teatorcs of other journals of this sloes published in Great Britain and America, and thus to provide for f*ui»ru,a stock-breeders, horticulturists, and everyone following rural avocations, a high-class joarnal which shall afford reliable information upon all matters pertaining to tieir several occupations while it strirea to promote their special Interests In all respects. Competent writers, possessing special know ledge of the subjects dealt with in the several departments of tho paper, hare been engaged. Those several departments will be kept d4stlnot from one another, and will embrace the follow ing subjects :—Agriculture, including Stock breeding and Dairy Work; Wool Growing j Horticulture ; Fruit Growing ; Special Crops and Bub Tropical Industries; Poultry, Bee Keoplng, &O. The illustrations will be Uio best of their kind both as regards drawing and engraving, and will add Immensely to the practical value and attractions of the paper. The Subscription (payablo in advance) will be 10s yearly, or 6a half-yearly (post paid); and from the steady Increase in popular favour which the "Settler" has enjoyed, tho proprietor believes he con con fidently look forward to securing a wide and immediate eiroulntlon fer a Journal so much mporlor to its predecessor as it is his Intontiou to make Tdk New Zbaiono Farme*.
