The Minister for Lands has received a letter from a New Zealand resident, asking for particulars of th© land open for selection. The writer saya : "You may wonder at a communication coming from New Zealand, but land is not easily acquirer here from the Government by ballot owing to people in all walks, of life going into speculation and making ihe chances of a bona fide settler very small."
