RIGHT TO FREEHOLD
NECESSITY FOR FARMERS MONEY FOR IMPROVEMENTS (By Telegraph.—Pres3 Association) WELLINGTON. Tuesday “It is absolutely essential that we as a union should make every endeavour to see that all farmers should have the right to make their farms freehold," said Mr J. Livingstone, of Dannevirke, chairman, at the farmers' conference. Any increment that results to the value "of the land through intensive farming should be the farmer's and be available to mortgage against further improvements," he added. “People don't like to lend money on land at present and most of our farms are deteriorating through lack of capital expenditure. That is where the fault lies rather than in the inefficiency of farmers."
