New Zealand after Twenty Years
The world economic depression of the 1930's struck New Zealand towards the close of almost a century of hectic, hurried and uninterrupted development. The transformation of the previous century had been unparalleled in British colonial history in its speed, intensity and wholesale nature. No country, and few parts of any country more than 100,000 square miles in extent, had been subject to such change in so short a time at the hands of an immigra…

Jimmy Grants" and "Mihaneres
T nHE brief but distinctive period of New Zealand history half way through the last century was one of rapid change, one in which completely new forms and kinds of development were inaugurated, and in which many lasting foundations were laid. During the years 1838-1853 both European and Maori patterns of population were rearranged, and emphasis was switched to different areas, new resources, and fresh objectives. The changes brought about in this…

As the habit of the group changes, or as a different group irrupts into the habitat, its potentialities and promise are transformed; after every advance in the culture of its occupants and every change of occupancy its resources must be re-evaluated. Less than two centuries ago New Zealand was in …

Land Problems in New Zealand
A NUMBER of considerations have combined to bring increasing attention, official and unofficial, to a variety of physical land crises in New Zealand, and several publications have lately presented the results of research into some of these problems. Together they constitute a valuable addition to the literature descriptive of the Dominion's land resources, agriculture, and problems of primary production. As a factual basis for effective regional …

The Status of Topographic Mapping in New Zealand
NOT until March, I939, could New Zealand claim to have produced a topographic map comparable with those of North America and Western Europe either in wealth of physical and cultural detail or in technical efficiency of execution. In that month was published the first sheet of a national series of topographic maps on the scale of i: 63,360. In the intervening six years almost half of the Dominion's 103,043 square miles has been mapped and more tha…

High-Country "Run" the Geography of Extensive Pastoralism in New Zealand
N & EW ZEALAND has a wide reputation for the quality and quantity of its dairy products, but the Dominion is not by any means a land only of intensive dairy farms. Dairy farming is areally restricted. It is located only in a few regions small in size, low in elevation. Here exotic pasture grasses and clovers have been made to support an intensive economy on holdings of 25 to 200 acres. Dairying is a most specialized practice and butterfat almost …
