Description

1) Dairy industry's contribution to growth. Town and country are welded by dual co-operation and aid.

Playing a big part in the development of this district are the Co-operative dairy factories - The Levin Co-operatve Dairy Company and the Kuku-Manakau Co-operative Dairy Company. Both have contributed much to the dairy wealth of this area and the economy of the country generally.

2) Farmer with vision.

Mr. J. W. Reading, who had a farm on the corner of Queen Street and Arapaepae Road was one the first local farmers to have a cream separator, and the neighbours used to take their milk along to him to be separated.
