The Census and Statistics Act, 1910.—Agricultural and Pastoral Statistics.

Census and Statistics Office, Wellington, 8th December, 1916.

IN the Gazette of the 23rd November, 1916, there appeared tables giving areas and yields of certain crops in the Dominion. The tables appended hereto give further details of land in occupation and cultivation, and also live-stock. Both these tables and those previously published give figures for counties, exclusive of their interior boroughs. Statistics of boroughs were collected in connection with the recent census, and the results are now being tabulated. Complete returns for counties, including their interior boroughs, will be published shortly.
