    tary within five years after the selection.

    the Commissioner at the Land Office, Taranaki, or
    to the Colonial Treasurer, failing any of which
    instalments the previous payments shall be forfeited:
    Provided that if upon the detailed survey any
    modification reducing the size of an allotment shall

    offered, and in lots not exceeding five hundred
    nor less than one hundred acres, to be selected
    according to the order of application, and subject

    who shall, upon receipt of each application, sign
    his name and the date of receipt thereon. No
    selection under any such application shall be made
    before noon on any day. All applications received
    before noon on any one day shall be deemed con-
