The Provisional Directors will, endeavor to induce the Government to grant to members of tho Association such modification*]pf the land on tU-ferred-pajinent clauses of the Land Act, 1877, as may facilitate occupation by bona fide settlers and subscribers without necessitating strict compliance with the present provisions of those clauses. The Provisional Directors will blbo endeavor to make provision for ample reserves for religious, educational, recreation, and public health purposes, as suggested by the Minister of Lands to the deputation which lately waited upon the Government with the view of bringing this scheme under their notice and favorable consideration. The payments are to be computed on some well-defined, liberal, and easily-understood system of deferred payments, to be made by instalments extending over a period of, say not less than ten (10) years. Each subscribing member will be required to deposit a sum equal to ten percentum of the total value of tho share of land he applies for before hie application can be entertained, and a further payment of two percentum per month on said total value until Buch time as the block to be applied for is acquired by the Association, and possession can be given to applicants, or until such lime as the Association shall make arrangements with the Government for allotting land to the subscribers, provided always that such monthly,payments of two percentum do not extend to a further period than six months from date of application. . All monieß received are to be paid into the Colonial Bank of Hew Zealand to the Association's account, to be opened in the name of the Trustees, on fixed deposit bearing interest; and no withdrawals or payments to be made by cheque against such account without the authority and fignature of the Treasurer, one of the Truttees, and three Directors being first obtained!* Agents, or Acting-Directors, for the Association will abo be appoitited iv all the centres of population throughout the provincial district aB soon as practicable.

If tho Provisional Directors are unable to make satisfactory arrangements with the Government? or from any other cause they find that they are unable to carry out the scheme suggested by this prospectus, they may*eturn to each subscriber the amount of his subscription with accrued interest, less his share of the expenses or liabilities then incurred.
