FIRST-CLASS AGRICULTURAL LAND. THE UNDERSIGNED has been favored with instructions from the New ; Zealand Mortgage and Investment Association (Ld.) to offer for Sale by Private Treaty, About 11,000 Acres of Rich Agricultural Land, forming the unsold portion of the Waicola Estate, situated about 35 miles north-west of Invercargill, and intersected by the Otautau and Nightcaps Railway. The Land now offered has just been surveyed and sub-divided into Farms running from 150 to 500 Acres, sizes which should render them convenient for all classes. A considerable extent of the property has been drained, 30 miles of ditching having been completed. It is not felt necessary to give any detailed description of the charader of the Land, as the Association would prefer that parties should go and see and judge for themselves. The object is to secure and locate on the property good practical Farmers, for which purpose the following special terms are offered, viz.:—Five years' lease at a rental of (ss) five shillings per acre per annum, with an optional purchasing clause of £7 ptr acre ; Jease tenable for a further term of five years afc a rental eay of five per cent, on the purchase price. For full particulars and all further information apply to CHARLES WILLIAM EICHBAUM, Pleasant Point, Or to Agent to the Association. JONAS & BOURN, Auctioneer?, Timaru. J. MUNDELL & CO., Geraldine. K.

ALL AND EASON HAVE 6300 AOias 6300 Which we can dispose of ai FARMS OF FROM 153 ACRES AND UPWARDS. PRICE, £3 to £5 AN ACRE. We are not laying down any hard and fnst terms,"but are open to make SPECIAL ARRANGEMENTS TO SCTIT PURCHASEKS. The WHOLE of the PURCHASE MONEY rnuy remain UNPAID (if r> quired) FOR A TERM. OF VEARS. INTEREST will b" Charged at an EXCEEDINGLY LOW KATB, 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 ROLLINGDOWNS, all Ploughable, with Permanent Streams in the Yallevs, and is situated four and a half to nine miles from three or four Eailway 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 BUSH (Reserved by Government), is within a mile of most of the Land (a License to Cut can be obtained for Ll a year), FENCING MATERIAL IS VERY CHEAP, as also is BUILDING TIMBER. We again wish to impresß 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 lo purchase larger farms in Southland, off which they not only can make a better living but which must inorease 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 there i 6 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.
