Speaking of the scarcity of female servants at Dunedin the c Otago Daily Times’ says :—“ The demand for female servants is such, that the office of the Immigration Agent was “ swarmed” on the arrival of the Helenslee ; and we understand that the seventeen young women, who are of a very suitable class, have obtained places from £36 to £4O a year. There is great demand for farm labourers throughout the Province.”
