FOR SALE AND FOB SETTLEMENT. AREA OF AGRICULTURAL LAND OPEN FOR SALE IN SODTHLAND. Under Deferred Payments 80,015 acres k- For Direct Purchase ... 85,000 acres Land coveied with Bush, i- which, when cleared, is of superior quality y for Agriculture ... 300,000 acres The price of deferred payment land iB 25s i- and 30s an acre. The land is from 20 miles north to 16 miles south of the latitude of the mouth of the Taieri River, and is all from 2 to 38 miles to the northward of the Clutha River at its mouth, Invercargill being 3 miles due south of the latitude of the Ciutha, the average height above the sea level being 250 feet. The average quality of the soil iB equal to any in the Australasian Colonies, and from climatic influences is capable of growing not merely excellent wheat, but first-class oats and barley, and is peculiarly adapted for raising turnips and artificial grasses, thereby enabling the farmer to keep his land in perfect heart by a rotation of cropping; manure his landbyfeedingoff his green crops with sheep and cattle, and keep him independent of a bad market for any particular cereal. All over the district there is firstclass limestone cropping out to fertilise the land when it may require it. Forests of large extent are scattered over it, providing timbers for building and fencing, and coal (lignite and the best brown coals) for fuel every where obtainable. The distriot is further intersected by railways, which open up the great valleys of Aparima, Oreti, and Mataura Fivers ; while a loop line from the Invercargill to Kingston Railway at Lums•iem runs through the Waimea Plains and joins the Invercargill to Dunedin main line at Gore, and a line through the Forest Hill District will be constructed shortly. Thus carriage of produce to the seaboard or market is easy and cheap from any part of it; and timber, lime, and coal, can be distributed all over the country at a minimum cost. The average yield of cereals per acre, taken from the statistics of the Colony for the years 1873 to 1878, a? compared with Canterbury, are as follow : The subjoined tables give the average temperature at Invercargill, Dunedin, and Christchurch, the commercial centres of the districts. It may be remarked that Invercargill being situated close toFoveaux Straits is exposed to more rainfall and sudden changes than the interior of the district, only seven miles due north, where the climate is both drier and warmer, but along the whole seaboard the land is extremely fertile, and much prized for grass and root orops. The experience of the last few years leads to the conviction that for all-round agriculture the supply of rain by no means exceeds the requirements of the land. This year the thermometer at Invercargill has averaged higher than any part of the Middle Island, and most parts of the North Island, while there has been very considerably less rainfall than in any part of the Colony.
