THE following Memorandum by the Registrar-General, and the Table to which it refers, are
published for general information.

AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS OF NEW ZEALAND, 1870.

Registrar-General's Office, Wellington, 9th June, 1870.

THE following Summary of the Results of the Collection of Agricultural Statistics in the month of
February last is presented in anticipation of a series of Tables on the subject, which are now in prepa-
ration, but which cannot be finally completed until the Returns for the Electoral District of Westland
North, (still wanting,) are received. The Returns for the several Provinces (showing the Results
for the Electoral Districts in each) have already appeared, from time to time, in the New Zealand
Gazette, having been published without delay as they were received. In the following Table, the
detached portions thus issued are brought together in a Summary for the Provinces (and the County
of Westland). The figures in the column headed "Totals under Crop" do not in every instance
agree with those in the previously issued Superintendent Collectors' Returns, it having been found,
on revision in this office, that corrections were necessary. Detailed Tables for the several Electoral
Districts, and Comparative Tables showing the Results of the "Account" collected in 1870, as
compared with the Results ascertained by the Collection in February 1869, will be issued with
the least possible delay after the receipt of the materials requisite to complete the information.

JOHN B. BENNETT,
Registrar-General.

As the Gazette has been published for more than 185 years, copyright status depends on the publication date of each issue:

1840–1925 (Public Domain): Issues of the New Zealand Gazette and Provincial Gazettes from this period are in the public domain, as the term of Crown copyright (100 years) has expired. Mechanical reproductions (e.g., scanned PDFs) of these public domain documents do not attract new copyright.
1926–1999 (Crown Copyright): Issues from this period remain subject to Crown copyright. Usage of these issues in this project is "Fair Dealing" for research purposes and consistent with the spirit of the open-access principles championed by NZGOAL, ie, "The default licensing position under ...
