These sections are situated on the south side of and con-
tiguous to the Mackenzie Township, and comprise open grass
level land of light but fair quality. Owing to their splendid
central position, these sections have a special value, and are
eminently well adapted for business sites, such as factories,
sale- or timber-yards, and also for villa residences, gardens,
and paddocks.

In the event of any of the suburban lots not being disposed
of at auction, they will remain open for selection, in terms
of “The Land Act, 1892,” at the upset prices specified.

Minister of Lands.
