SOUTHLAND LAND. ALL AND EASON 6300 ™™ 6300 Which we can dispose of in FARMS OF FROM 153 ACRES AND UPWARDS. PRICE, £3 to £5 AN ACRE. Wefare not laying down any hard and fast terms, but are open to make SPECIAL ARRANGEMENTS TO SUIT PURCHASERS. The WHOLE of the PURCHASE MONEY may remain UNPAID (if. required) FOR A TERM OF YEARS. INTEREST will be Charged at an EXCEEDINGLY LOW RATE, and, if required, an arrangement can be made for NO INTEREST TO BE PAID THE FIRST YEAR. OF THE LAND ITSELF We may sav itconsiste of LOW ROLLING DOWNS, all Ploughable, with Permanent Btreams in the "Valleys, and is situated four and a half to nine miles from three or four Bailway Slnlioni on the Main Line from Dunedin to luvercargill, so that Produce or Sheep for Fre.-zing cm be sent to either Market. COAL is found almcsfc everywhere, and as a good BUSH (Reserved by Government), is within a mile o( most of the Land (a Licenee to Cut can be obtained for LI a year), FENCING MATERIAL IS VERY CHEAP, as also is BUILDING TIMBEB. We Bgain wish to impress on Farmers and others, especially Small Farmers and Contractors with Farming Plant, the following facts:— That on the small bo'dings they have here all they can make is a bare living, and that year by year they grow older, but no better off, and that year by year the value of agricultural land is becoming steadier, and more difficult for people of small means to acquire. Especially has it done so in this district. And whether they would not be wise to purchass larger farms in Southland, off which they not only can make a better living but which muet increase in value as settlement progresses. Another important point to consider is that with the price of grain as low as it is now, far more is to be made by Stock producing, than by grain ; and that thoro h no better graes and turnip land than in Southland, There are a number of Settlers in the neighbourhood who purchased from us, and who are now doing well.
