In the EXCHANGE LAND AND MER. OANTILE AUCTION ROOMS. Manmers-sirket, Wellington. ON FRIDAY NEXT, JANUARY 18, At 1 o'clock p.m. m KENNEDY~MACDONALD and _,., Coaro favored with instructions from the Wellington and Manawatu Railway Company, Limited, to Bell by public auction as above, about 12,000 ACRES of GRAND AGRICULTURAL [ and PASI'ORAL LAND, Situate near the township of Oiaki, being tho Blocks New 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, of the j Kaitawa Survey District, subdivided into over aixtv sections, ranging in area from fifty-six acres to seven hundred and forty seven acres each, A number of the smaller sections are pure agricultural land, while the larger areas are part agricultural and part pastoral. They are splendidly watered, and the timber upon them is mixed tawa, rimu, etc. O.i several of the sections will be found magnificent totara; the whole of of the timber used in the Otaki Bridge, and tho sleepers required for the railway having been cut from portion of the bush. The land is fiatand undulating, undulating and hilly, and some of the flats have very rich river deposits, The soil throughout is classed by experts as exceedingly good, tho only stony portions being those on which the totara is found, and tho value of this timber for tawmill purposes makes the land upon which it grows exceptionally valuable. All the sections are reached by partly cleared wads' running from the railway stations at Te Horo and Hautere, about 44 milos from Wellington, the centre of the blocks being about 2£ miles from the railway stations, and thence in various directions throughout the blocks, Tho aim of the Cmpany being to sell their lands to bona tide occupiers, and so create traffic for their line, high prices are not looked for; the Company, as a railway proprietary, recognising that a large and energetic body of settlers occupying high-class land, purchased at a low price, will be of more permanent value to them and the community than if they sold a limited area at high rates. This result is already being achieved, a large number of farmers, eawmillers, and othets being in actual occupation of the lands sold by the company during tho past eighteen months. Many hundreds of acres of bush are now down ready for burning, and not a few of the previous buyers have been offered handsome profits on their investments.
In order to increase the satisfactory result, the terms of sale are still fixed on a basis winch will, we feel euro, be appreciated by all who desire to seo the lands of the country speedily settled, They are as follows: DEPOSIT AT THE AUCTION SALE 10 PER CENT, The Balance of 90 per cent, ts remain on mortgage for SEVEN YEARS, bearing interest at the rate of FIVE PER CENT per annum. In order to induce occupation and improvement, the pnrchasor will be required to enter into an undertaking to expend during the first three years by his own labor or otherwise, an amount equal to 10 per cent per annum of his purchaee-nioney. or in lieu thereof, should he prefer to let Ida section he idle, to to pay, m reduction of his purchaeo money, 10 per cent, per annum in THE TITLE IS LAND TRANSFER ACT. The Company have arranged to issue SPECIAL RETURN TICKETS at reduced prices.
