STATE FARMS.
SUGGESTION BY MR JONES. TRANSFER OF STOCK. (By Telegraph.—Special to Standard.) WELLINGTON, Aug. 12. Mr D. J ones, during Ins speech on the Budget to-night, urged that the Government should sell their two agricultural farms in the north island, Ruakura and Weraroa, upon which there had been losses. He said it would pay them to cut their losses on those two farms and transfer the stock, and perhaps some the buildings, to the Agricultural College. A bold policy would be the best. The amount of money saved would in a large measure help to paying the expenses of the Agricultural College at Palmerston North.
