The subdivision of W. Dick, Esq.'s property, situate at Lower Wairau, Marlborough, 4 miles from Blenheim, under THE LAND SETTLEMENT FINANCE ACT rgoß* The terms are such that any bachelor with £4OO or any married man with £SOO in cash is eligible and able to purchase a block of from 20 to 60 acres of this, the finest agricultural land to be obtained in the Dominion. The property is situated on a good metalled fiat road, four miles from Blenheim. It would be a simple matter for a tradesman, shop assistant, or worker ol a»y kind, to hold one or more of the blocks offered, and still attend to his ordinary avocation. There is a seho<fl within fcsH a mile of the property. As. to what the land is we can safely assert that it is absolutely cheap at tlie price offered. It is magnificent agricultural land arid will grow any cerual crop. It is splendid lucerne land, as is evidenced *y « paddock now down, and it is a first-class dairying land. It wtlli grow fruit to perfection. The late Br. j Home's Tiomestead adjoining, it was noted for its wonderful orchard, and the fruit now growing on the property furtheT exemplifies this fact. The land is eminently suitable for market gardening, all root crops thrive splendidly, and for vegetables the soil is superb. The present owner has regularly grown crops of 70'busbies'of barley, 4'/ 3 tons of chaff, and 52 ! bushels of peas to the acre. and the previous owner lias had splendid wheat crops. We assert without fear of contradiction that the land is eminently suitable 'or any crop, and will grow any crop practically to perfection. 'We assert that for .dairying it will in grass carry a cowto 1% acres, and it lucerne is grown, it will carry far more. Wo assert that for onions, potatoes, beans, any Beod crop, and for vegetables of any description, the property is beyond reproach, whilst for fruit of anv description it is practically unbeatable.

BLENHEIM S FUTURE That Blenheim in progressing is undoubted, and linked up and assisted by its advancement, the value of small farms in the vicinity must increase. A butter factory is to he erectcd.jflt Thurston this coming winter, and will be completed and ready for work by next spring. A bacon factory' is to be erected near Riverlands immediately. These two factories will serve to increase the annual profit from small holdings close to Blenheim.
Mr. Mck has given us instructions to sell, but the property must be disposed of quickly, otherwise he must proceed with the sowing of his crops for next year. We therefore reconußtnd those who consider the question of taking up one or more of the sections to inspect at the earliest possible moment, and come to a conclusion as to whether they will purchase or not without a moment's -lelny. A DAY LOST MAY MEAN THAT SOMEONE ELSE HAS GOT THE SEC TION YOU WANT. We in->tc inquiries, and will be pleased to ,upply the fullest particulars to any bona fide purchasers.
