Thirty farmers who are dissatisfied with Canada as a suitable country for the industry arrived in Auckland ‘from Vancouver recently. Most of the new arrivals hail from- the Old' Country or are Canadians, and they have come* to New Zealand to take up land, but if they fail in their mission they will proceed to Australia. “Tho chief thing against Canada is its climate," said one of tho party to a “Herald" representative. ’The winter is. very severe, and of late veal's many of us have had almost the whole of our crops ruined by hail, frost and snow, and it is not the place it is reported to be, and hundreds are leaving the coiintry every month/'’ The new arrivals are keen and industrious. ■
