A RGSY OUTLOOK.
New Zealand is fortunate in being a [great food-producing country Mankind must have food, and aslthe population of the world grows—and it is increasing at a prodigious rate —the demand for supplies must become greater No doubt other coun tries lying nearer the centraljnarket will become, in course of time, serious competitors, but we believe there will always be a large and practically inexhaustible demand for our products, provided that care is taken to maintain their high quality. The outlook, therefore, is exceedingly encouraging. Increased exports mean increased prosperity. What is now wanted is increased land settlement. The taihoa policy, which is so serious a drag on the progress of the North Island must go. The millions of acres of land which that policy is keeping locked up, must be brought into European occupation and cultivation. Smiling homesteads'and verdant pastures must take the place of bush and fern And as the tide of land settlement spreads over the great areas now lying idle and unproductive, an enormous spurt will be given to trade and commerce, and a period of unexamined nrcsDerity will aet in. >
