CBT mEGIUPH.—PRESS ASSOCIATION.)
PALMEBSTON N., This Day. At a meeting of the General Commit' tee of the Manawatu A. and P. Association, a letter was, received from London from a man anxious to come to the Dominion and take up farming. The •writer,, a single man,' aged 23 years, stated >that he had nine years' experience in dairy farming. He had applied to the High Commissioner for an assisted passage to the Dominion a s a farm ■worker, but owing to a slight defect in the writer's left eye the High Commissioner was unable to grant such passage unless the man was nominated by somebody resident in the Dominion. The writer having no friends or relations in the Dominion, the High Commissioner supplied him wiOi the address of the Manawatu Association, with a suggestion that that body would nominate him. This the writer asked should be done. The chairman (Mr. Dalrymple) said this was a good opportunity for a member who wanted to encourage young men whose letters have a genuine.ring. The question is to receive early attention.
