 As the first step the state land set tlemcnt board has announced that it is now ready to purchase from 4,000 to 6,0Oo acres of farm land, the board then to improve subdiVidc and settle the land.

 That shows, too, in the calves they bear. Small, wiry. strong calves are borne by cows that have eaten a lot of wood.
 An official report just issued shows that nearly 42,000 acres less land is under crops this year than in 1916, doubtless partly owing to the shorta ge of fertilizers. This is an increase of the area under grain, but this is like q drop in the bucket compared with the oversea imports.
