Mr. Schmidt, indicated to-day what it is proposed to do in the direction of introducing British farm laborers into the Auckland province. In April next Mr. Flanagan, of Drury, the vice-president of the provincial executive, leaves for England. While in the Old Country, he will make a personal examination of suitable farm hands, and select as many as are required by the farmers of the province.
