THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES
Using Prokrf.iuty Aright. New Zealand i.s onioving one of the finest slices of unexpected prosperity that has been her portion since the war Loom. I lie result, it is hoped, will be that farmers will use the lunds now flowing in upon them to entrench themselves against the risks and misfortunes of less prosperous years. If that course is taken there is no rea-
son why every farmer participating in enhanced wool ynlue.s should not- be a winner. 11. on the other hand, tlune is to be another orgy of farm-swap-ping and speculative land-dealing, more than half the farmers will be losers and the winning residue "ill retire from farm life and live in town. Nothing could he worse from the productive standpoint, since, the farming industry is doubly injured—by the hnnurial crippling of those who reinpiu on the farms, and by the loss of the experience and skill of the lucky ones who retire on their gambling gains.— Evitellou “Times.”
