Farming Easiest Terms. Golden Opportunity LAND FOR TH: LANDLESS. An opportunity to secure from 20 to 80 acres of first-class cropping, dairying, seed growing, lucerne growing, or fruit land on the very easiest terms offered in any part of the world. This Land Will Grow WHEAT, BARLEY, PEAS, OATS, LUCERNE BEAN'S, ONIONS, POTATOES AND FRUIT To Perfection! The subdivision of W. Dick, Esq.'s property, situate at Lower Wairau, Marl- [ borough, 4 miles from Blenheim, under THE LAND SETTLEMENT FINANCE , ACT 1908' The terms trVc such that any bachelor with £4OO or any married man with £SOO in cash is eligible and able to purchase a block of from 20 to 60 acres of I tliis, the finest agricultural land to bo obtained in the Dominion. SITUATION. The property is situated on a good metalled flat r.oad, four miles from Blenheim. It would be a simple, matter for a tradesman, shop assistant, or worker of any kind, to hold one or more of the blocks offered, and still attend to his ordinary avocation. There is a school within half a mile of the property. _/THE LAND. . As to what the land is we can safely assert that it is absolutely cheap at the price offered. It is magnificent agricultural land and will grow any cereal crop. It is splendid lucerne land, as is evidenced by a paddock row down, and it is a first-class dairying land. It will grow fruit to perfection. The late Dr. Home's homestead adjoining it was noted for its wonderful orchard, and the fruit now growing on the property further exemplifies this fact. The land is eminently suitable for market gardening, all root crops thrive splendidly, and for vegetables the soil is superb. I The present owner has regularly grown 1 crops of 70 bushles of barley, 4% tons of chaff, and 52 bushels of peas to,the acre, jand the previous owner has had splendid wlieat crops. We assert without fear of contradiction that the land is eminently suitable for any crop, and will grow any crop practically to perfection. We assert that for dairying it wiH in grass carry a cow to 1% acres, and if lucerne is grown, it will carry far more. Wo assert that for onions, potatoes, beans, .any seed crop, and for vegetables of any 'description, the property is beyond reproach, whilst for fruit of any description it is practically unbeatable.

BLENHEIMS FUTURE (That Blenheim is progressing is undoubted, and linked up and assisted by its advancement, the value of small farms in the vicinity must increase. A butter factory is to be erected at Thurston this coming winter, and will be completed and ready for work by nest spring. A bacon factory is-to be erected near Riverlancls immediately. These two factories will serve to increase the ; annual profit from, small holdings close , ' to Blenheim.
