LAND FOR SOLDIER SETTLEMENT.
We have received the following communication from Mr W. H.

Pnote the concluding words, hut I don’t feel that I could have done any more than I have done.

Nobody is more anxious than I am to promote close settlement. Apart, from the returned soldiers question, the settlement of our land in suitable areas will be the making and salvation of our country.” v
