[PKESS ASSOCIATION.] TAIHAPE, Yesterday. With respect to the land thrown open for selection under the Land for Settlements Act at Raumati, .Hawke's Bay, the Minister of Lands says: "I see there is "a laTge number of applications; I am very well satisfied. Of course the numbers are not equal to what they were under the old Act, because the conditions are so stringent in order to prevent dummy ism. We must therefore be prepared for tlie enormous reduction in figures."
