J» ~~~~" This Association is promoted with the object of securing for its members freehold farms in" the Waimate Plains (or some other suitable locality) on the most favorable tenu and conditions, with a view of supplying to some extent the great and increasing demand forj. small holdings for bona fide settlement. ' As sodnaj the block is decided upon, and the preliminaries arranged, it will be surveyed into sections of limited area and apportioned, by lot or otherwise, according to rules to be agreed upon at a general meeting of the sub* scribing members of the proposed Association in selections of a minimum value of One Hundred Pounds (£100) sterling, and a maximum value of (£400) sterling. The Provisional Directors will endeavor to induoe the Government to grant to members of the Association such modifications of the . land on drferred>p.a;ment 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 also endeavor to sake 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. '" " - HChe payments are to be computed on some well-defined, liberal, and easily-understood system of deferred payments, to be made by instalments extending, ovet, a period of,-say not less than ten- (10). years. Each subscribing member will be required to deposit a ran equal to ten percentum* of the total value of the share of land.be applies for before.hie application can be entertained, and a further payment of two percentum .per month- on said total value until such time as the block to be applied for is acquired by the Association, and possession can be given to appli- ' cants, or until such .time as the Association shall- make arrangements with' the Govern* ment for allotting land .to the subscribers, provided always that such monthly payments of two percentum do not extend to a^ further . " period wan six months from date of application. . . . . • All monies received are to be paid into the Colonial Bank of Hew Zealand to the Association's aooownt, 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 , acoount without the authority and signature of the Treasurer, one of the Trustees, and three Directors being first obtained. > Agents, or Acting-Directors, for the Association will also be appointed in all the centres of population throughout the provincial district as soon as practicable. As soon a|, in the opinion. of the Provisional Directory, a sufficient number of shares . are applied 'Ibr, a general meeting \«f sub- - scribing members will be called for the purpose of passing and adopting permanent roles and by-laws or articles of Association for the future guidance of the Association, and also for the election of a permanent Board of Directors and Management. . V If the 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 return to each subscriber the amou&t of his subscription with accrued interest, less hinsbare of the expenses or liabilities then incurred. As it is of'the utmost importance and imperatively necessMs that no time should be . lost in organising tnyjuuiness of* the Association, the Provisional iJWtory therefore stipulate that the list of •üß^nbing aeonbers should be finally dosed uotsg,ter, than the 31st January,lßSo. / >V • Terms of proposal and application^, : . shares and' other information connected wlL^ .: the Association may be- procured, from iheT^ Provisional Directors, the SebrJetury pro tot*, -,' ? or at the Wellington Working Men's dub, Lumbton Quay. ■ ' ' • ■' AppUoations, with amount of deposits to be i-dged with the Colonial Bank of New Zealand, Wellington.
