AT 7.30 IN THE EVENING. MACDONALD, WILSON AND CO. (in conjunction with Messrs. DWA^T.BROS.) are favoured with- instructions from tho Proprietors to sell by public auction as above — 1 d.^ < ONB HUNDRED AND iio iyfcO FORTY-THREE) X4:O GRAND BUSINESS AND RESIDENTIAL BUILDING SECTIONS, being tho sub-division of the well-known Show Grounds, 6ituatcd in the Town of Petono, and forming portion of the boundary between tho Towns of Petone and the Hutt. The One Hundred and Forty-throe Building Sections to be offerod at this salq are, in many respects, superior to tho subdivisions wo havo submitted for many years past. A largo number of them front CubaBtrect, tho main highway between Petone and tho Hutt, and tho future chief business thoroughfare of tho two suburbs. The sections are absolutely flat, no expense being required for filling-in or excavation prior to building. Boing situated between the Towns of Petono and tho Hutt, they will form the nucleus of a new Business Centre of immense 'impbrtanco to tho largo number of residents who have already located themselves in and about Alicelown, and immediately opposite the property. On each of the section? a splendid flow of artesian water can ba obtained, and on several of the sections pipes have been put down and the wator is now flowing. The Borough of Petone is now davising extensivo improvements in the way of drainage, wator supply, otc, so as to make tho, borough an up-to-dnto object-lesson to other municipalities throughout the colony- Both the Hutt Borough Council and the Petono Borough Council's Engineers are also preparing tho plans of a schema for diverting and carrying off all surface water from the hills. Arrangements are beiug made for a splendid service of now Motor Car 'Busses' between the Railway Stations of Petono and tho Hutt. Theso Motor Car 'Buss-es are said to be far superior in comfort and convenience to, the Eleclrio Cars, as they can go anywhere and stop anywhere, and the cost of carriage is far below that of the Electrio Iram Car Services. The rapid development of the Town of retone, and of tho lands immediately surrounding it, is one of "the wonderful surprises to those unacquainted with the forces that are daily at work compelling it to forgo ahead. Tho straightening of tho railway line between Wellington and rctonc, now rapidly proceeding, will iecluco the timo occupied in the journey to eleven minutes, and be no mean factor hi adding to Petone's present attractions either xor business, residence, or the investment of capital. The Town of Petone stands absolutely unique in the history of the colony in tlm respect For the past twenty years every man who has invested £100 in the purchase of its lands has increased bis original capital many times. As an example of how quickly money is mods in Petone, wo may instance this recent fact. In the month of August, 1903, we sold a small block of land not far from the Show Grounds for £3050. Last month we re-sold ! «<«b 2 - 68 V a profit t0 tho bu J-ers of £5218 within fifteen months. No one having a few pounds to spare should hesitate at this stage in investing in these lands. Within a very brief period overy half-acre between the Towns of Petone and the Hutt will bo covered with manufactories and residences, and its value will have increased tenfold. There may be doubts as to the stability and permanency of improvement in certain parts of the colony. There aro none as to the advantages and future of all that pertains to Petono and its surroundings. The Terms of Sale havo bepn fixed on a basis to enable overy man of ambition and energy to acquire a Business or a Home Sito. The ordinary working man in the days of past years never had such a chance. All land sold then had to be paid for in cash. Land is, after all, a fixed and limited quantity, and you cannot always get it, even at a high price. Do not, therefore, neglect such an opportunity as (his. Tho first duty of overy man is to own the house and land occupied by his wife and little ones. The TERMS are :— ■ Ten per cent. Deposit , Ten per cent, m Six Months Ton per cent, in Twelve Months Balance in Three Years IntereM,, Five and a Half per cent. Any purchn^pr willing to build a house to tho value of his land need only pay the Ten per cent. Deposit. Tho balance of his Purchase Money can remain unpaid for a period of yearn.
