SMALLER FARMS.
I A TARANAKI PROPOSAL. By Telepapß—Press Association. Wellington, Last Night. The conference of the Council of Agriculture to-day decided, on the motion of the Taranaki delegate, that good land shoHkl be "bought and cut up into small farms of from 10 to 30 acres, it being the general opinion of the council that the assistance the Government ■is giving to house-building In towns will tend to induce people still more to live in towns. The following remit, also from TarannUi, was adopted: "That the land valuations of the Government are not satisfactory; the small farmers are being penalised, as land in the more closely setflnd districts is being valued more frequently than in districts where land is hg)d in large areas; all land throughout the Dominion should be valued for taxation purposes regularly and in order."
