PRICE, £3 to £5 AN ACRE. We are not laying down any hard and fast terras, 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 say it consists of LOW BOLLING DOWNS, all Ploughabls, with Permanent Streams in the Talleys, and is situated four and a half to nine miles from three or four Railway Stations on the Main Line from Dunedin to Invercargill, so that Produce or Sheep for Freezing can be sent to either Market. COAL is found almost everywhere, and as a good BDSH (Reserved by Government), is within a mile of most of the Land (a License to Cut can be obtained for LI a year), FENCING MATERIAL 18 YEEY CHEAP, as also is BUILDING TIMBER. We again wish to impress on Farmers and others, especially Small Farmers and Contractors with Farming Plant, the following facts; — That on the small holdings 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 purchase larger farms in Southland, off which they not only can make a better living but which must 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 ; knd that there is no better grass 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.
