IMMIGRATION TO OTAGO.—Urgent representations having been made to the Provincial Government as to the scarcity of agricultural labourers, notice is hereby given to those employers who, through their friends and connections in the mother country, can hire suitable labourers, that the Government is prepared to issue passage orders from Glasgow to the Province on payment of £10 per statute adult.

The same facilities will also be given to others than agricultural employers who may wish to engage their own workpeople in the home country; the only stipulation which the Government makes in either case is, that public aid shall be strictly confined to importation of bona fide labour suitable to the actual requirements of the Province.
