CLOSER SETTLEMENT.
Another visit of inspection was made by officers of the Land Purchase Board yesterday to Moutoa to investigate the laud in that locality and its suitability for closer settlement purposes. The officials were accompanied by a ditrict resident, who states that the inspection could not have been made under more adverse conditions. , The property inspected was very wet after the recent flood. It will be remembered that a petition containing over five hundred signatures has been forwarded to the Premier to have this and adjacent lands cut up as the future of Foxton depends almost entirely upon closer settlement.
