Opening Settlement Land in Taranaki Land District for Selection.

JELLICOE, Governor-General.

IN pursuance and exercise of the powers and authorities conferred upon me by the Land Act, 1908, and the Land for Settlements Act, 1908, and amendments, I, John Rushworth, Viscount Jellicoe, Governor-General of the Dominion of New Zealand, do hereby declare that the settlement lands described in the Schedule hereto shall be open for selection on renewable lease on Monday, the twenty-first day of August, one thousand nine hundred and twenty-two, at the rentals mentioned in the said Schedule; and I do also declare that the said lands shall be leased under and subject to the provisions of the said Acts.

SCHEDULE.

TARANAKI LAND DISTRICT.—FIRST-CLASS LAND.

Taranaki County.—Paritutu Survey District.—Huatoki Settlement.

The Huatoki Settlement is situated just outside the Borough of New Plymouth, close to the suburb of Vogeltown. It has been cut into suburban allotments suitable for gardening, poultry-farming, bee-keeping, and running a few cows. In places the land is badly overrun with gorse, blackberry, and fern; but in small-size allotments these should soon be eradicated.

The Saxton and Bush Roads are completely formed as earth roads, also the Huatoki Road from Carrington Road to the southern end of Section 8s, and from the Doralto Road to its junction with the Bush Road. It is proposed to metal the Saxton Road at once, and the Huatoki Road later on.

As witness the hand of His Excellency the Governor-General, this 30th day of June, 1922.

D. H. GUTHRIE, Minister of Lands.
