TOPICAL READING.
THE LAND. It is imperative that the unoccupied lands shall be brought into cultivation and profit, and the Government will be false to their trust if they fail to bring down some scheme by which this may be done. It is of no use to tinker with the subject, and the Government cannot relieve themselves of their responsibility by offering 400 farms and then sitting down to a imire own energy. The'matter should be dealt with comprehensibly and boldly, with a single eye to the one object—the extension of settlement, says the Christchurch "Press." Increased production may also be obtained by the wider diffusion of a knowledge of modern scientific methods, and these two objects might well engage the combined and earnest attention of the Farmers' Union and the A. and P. Associations, with a view to bringing parliamentary pressure to bear on the Government.
