This Association is promoted with tke object of securing for its members freehold farms in the Waimate Plains (or some other suitable locality) on the most favorable terms and conditions, with a view of supplying to some extent the great and increasing demand for small holdings for bona fide settlement. As soen as the block isl 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 subscribing members of the proposed Association in selections of a minimum value o| One - Hundred Pounds (£100) sterling, and a maximum value of (£400) sterling. The Provisional Directors will endeavor to induce the Government to grant to ■embers - of the Association such modifications of the ' land on deferred-payment clauses of the Land Act, 1877* as may facilitate occupation by bona fide settlers and subscribers witboat necessitating strict compliance with the present provisions of those clauses. The Pro*, visional Directors will also endeavor to make ■ provision for ample reserves for religion*,-: 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 th«ir notice and favorable consideration. The payments are to be competed on some well-defined, liberal, and easily-understood | system of deferred payments, to be made by ■'■ : instalments extending over a period of; say , i not less than ten (10) years. Each subscribe i ing member will be required to deposit • sum eqosl to ten percentum of the total value of the share of land he applies for before his application can be entertained,.and a further payment of two percentum per month on said total value until such time ss the blook '•? to be applied for is acquired by the AssoeiaI tion, and possession can be given to appli* i cants, or until such time as the Association ! shall make arrangements,with the GovernI ment for allotting land to the subscribers, . provided always that such monthly payments lof two | ercentum do not extend tost farther * ! period than six months from date of applies* h* 00' ■ ■ • ■ ■ i All monies reoeived are to be paid into the ; Colonial Bank of Kew Zealand to the Asto- , (nation's account, to be opened in the nsMfe '* of the Trustees, on fixed deposit bearinJP interest, and no withdrawals or payments to 1 be made by elwque against such aooonat; i without the authority and signature of the i Treasurer, one of tbe Trustees, and three . I Directors being first obtained. ' Agents, or Acting-Directors, for the Asso* oiation will also be appointed in all the centres of population throughout the provincial district as soon as practicable. As soon as, in the opinion of the Provisional Directory,.a sufficient number of shares are applied for, a general meeting of subscribing members will be called for the pur-, ' pose of passing and adopting permanent rules ! and by-laws or articles of Association for the * 1 future guidance of the Association, and also , for the election of a permanent Board of Directors and Management ' , 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 eaeb subscriber the amount of his Bubfcription with accrued interest, lets, his share of the expensesor liabilities then' incurred. - - As it is of the utmott importance and imperatively necessary that no tine should be lost in organising tbe business of the Asso- , ciation, the Provisional Directory therefore stipulate that the Hal of subscribing membets ebouid be finally closed not later than the 3ht January, 1880. • . .
