Owing to the fact that the Government has been rather dilatory in advancing the necessary loan money, hardly any of the settlers on the Westella settlement have been able to proceed with house building operations. Whares of various sorts dot the landscape in which the families are living, while others are not residing on their farms at present l and at least one family of four is living in a single roomed building kindly placed at their disposal by a resident of the locality. „ ~ Naturally, the first eoncern of the settlers was to erect milking sheds and also to get their bare sections in some semblance of order for the season that was rapidlv advancing upon them, and it says "much for the industry .and resourcefulness of the sect Lon owners that thev have accomplished such a largo amount of work in the comparatively brief period at their disposal. At present, with the hours of milking growing longer, and the incoming cows to attend to, the time which will be available for work on the farms will naturally be shortened. . However, as the farmers’ working hours are not measured by the clock, but are determined by the rising and setting of the sun the work of transforming the settlement into a neatly productive area will slowly but surely continue. Of the original complement who drew their sections iri the ballot, only one has left the area and this, it is stated, was purely for private reasons. The section was soon occupied again, however, and in this connection it is alleged that some irregularity was phown in that the incoming settler was placed on the property without recourse to a ballot for it by the Government. It is understood that the matter is being made the subject of a petition to Parliament. What will probably be the most enjoyable dance of the season will be given on Wednesday night at tho Anzae Slab. Tho arrangements are in tho hands of a capable committee of the C. and C. Hockey Club. Those who attended a similar function held two years ago wero loud in their praise and this oilort will eel ipso tho former function.
