A SERIES of LAND SALES is being held in the PROVINCE of TARANAKI under the Waste Lauds Board of the province, the Lands offered being Town and Rural Allotments, the latter varying in area from 20 to 320 acres, and the conditions of sale being by DEFERRED PAYMENTS extended over Ten Years, by Auction, for CASH; and by FREE SELECTION for CASH. The district is traversed by the Waitara-Wanganui Railway, now in course of construction, and which is expected to be completed as far as Inglewood—the Township at the commencement of the district—in about eighteen months. The land is well adapted to working settlers of small capital, as it is easily accessible, has abundance of timber for building, fencing, fuel, and shelter; never-failing streams of water, and a very productive soil. A good main road traverses the district so far as it is yet open for purchase, and the District Roads will also be opened up by the Provincial Government, so- as to make each allotment accessible from the main line of railway. Plans, schedules, laud regulations of the province, &c., can be obtained at the Crown Lands Office, New Plymouth. C. D. WHITCOMBE, Commissioner of Crown Lands, Crown Lauds Office, Taranaki, March 17, 1875.
