Easiest Terms Golden Opportunity LAND FOR THE LANDLESS. An opportunity to secure from 20 to 00 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 BEANS, ONIONS, POTATOES AND FRUIT The subdivision of W. Dick, Esq.'s property, situate at Lower Wairau, Marlborough, & miles from Blenheim, under THE LAND SETTLEMENT FINANCE | ACT 1908' The terms are such that any bachelor | with £4OO or any married man with 1 £SOO in cash is eligible and able to pur-1 chase a block of from 20 to 60 acres of! this, the finest agricultural land to bo . obtained in the Dominion. SITUATION. I The property is situated on a good metalled fiat road, four miles from Bleu-j heim. It would be a simple matter for a ■ tradesman, ehop assistant or worker o»', any kind, to hold one or more of the 1 blocks offered, and still attend -to his ! ordinary avocation. Tlwrc is a school within half a mile of the property. As to what the land is we can Bafely 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 tiow down, and it is a first-class dairying land. It will grow fruit tn 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. The present owner has regularly grown crops of 70 bnshles of'barley, 4% tons of chafT, and 52 bushels of peas to the acre, and the previous owner has had splendid wheat 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 will in grass carry a cow to 1% acres, and if lucerne, is grown, it will carry far more. We assert that for onions, potatoes, bean?, any seed crop, and for vegetables of any description, the property is beyond reproach, whilst for fruit of any description it is practically unbeatable. THE PRICE. The prices of the sections vary from—£37 £4l per acre. Each purchaser must pay in cash a sum equal to—--6 per cent, of Iris purchase money.

BLENHEIM S FUTURE That [Blenheim is progressing as undoubted, and linked up and assisted by its advancement, the value «f amaill farms is itllie vicinity must increase. A butter factory is to be erected at Thurston this ooniing winter, and will be completed a»4 ready for work by nest spring. A 'bacon factory is to be erected near Riverlaads immediately. These two factories will serve to increase the annual profit faom small holdings elose to Blenheim. Mr. Dick has giwen us instructions to sell, but the property must bo disposed of quickly, otherwise he must proceed with the sowing of his crops for next year. Wo therefore recommend those who consider the question of taking up one or more of the sections to inspect at the earliest possible moment, and come lo a conclusion as to whether they will purchase or not without a moment's delav A DAY LOST MAY MEAN THAT SOMEONE ELSE HAS GOT THE SEC TION YOU WANT.
