When the Anglo-Japanese treaty was concluded Great Britain\nwithdrew the greater part of her fleet\nfrom the China coast and completelv\nabandoned the North Pacific fleet, both\nof which could be used in conjunction\nwith an Australian squadron to protect\nBrttlish trade and British possessions\nin all parts of the Pacific. The home\ngovernment sees no danger In that part\nof the world and has full confidence\nin her eastern ally. Tlie colonial delegates, however, persistently pictured\nJapan as a rival who,might some day\nhecome possessed of a desire for more\nterritory.\nThey, therefore, while agreeing to\ncontribute to the maintenance of the\nmain fleet, declared that the greatest\nenergy should be exerted to provide\ndefences for their own coast and trade.\nAustralia already is building torpedo\nboats as a nucleus of the fleet nnd\nCanada purposes to do the same. The\nadmiralty believes that these fleets\nwill prove of greatest use lfi controlled\nfrom London but to this the Canadians\ndo not agree. The fleet, they sny\nwould come to the assistance ofi the\nmother country in time of need, but it\nmust be absolutely under the control\nof the federal government. Canada's\nfirst ships will be modern cruisers and\nthe Canadians think that these should\nbe placed In the Pacific. The home\nauthorities, on the other hand, want\nthem on the Atlantic, whence thev\ncould join the main fleet in the North,\nSea on the shortest notice.\nThe delegates are in daily conference\nand the admiralty hopes that a scheme\nwill be completed nnd ready for presentation In the conference on Aug.\n19. New Zealand. South'Africa and th6\nsmaller colonies have agreed to make\ndirect contributions to the British navy\nand to depend on it for their protection.\nLONDON, Aug, 14\u2014On Tuesday next\nthe admiralty will present a bill to parliament to amend the Naval Defence act\nof 1845 and to make better provision\nrespecting naval establishments In the\nBritish possessions.\nLONDON, Aug. 14\u2014Sir Edward Morris, premier of Newfoundland, who is\nat present in London to attend the imperial defence conference, wns questioned today regarding the complaints\nof a breach of faith made by the Commercial company against the Newfoundland government.

This\nwould be unfair and prejudicial to the\nAnglo-American company, doing business on the same street In St. John's\nand which pays yearly taxes to the\namount of $20,000.\"\nPremier Morris will l-jave England\nfor New York on Aug. 21,\nLONDON, Autx, 14\u2014The kine has an-\nproved the appointment ofi lord Balfour\nof Burleigh.

In British Columbia are numerous mines of varying productive ca-\npaclty, but some possessing large\nbodies of lead-zinc and silver ores,\nwhose treatment hitherto has been difficult, and often altogether unprofitable, but which could bei profitably\nbandied bysthe Murex process. Moreover, there are numerous low grade\ncopper mines which will prove a profitable field for us. A trial of British\nColumbia ore was carried out at our\nworks under the supervision of an independent engineer, Mr. Bowyer Bower, and with good results. I believe\nMr. Bower's report has been communicated to the government of. British Col.\numbia. In It he mentions that the sample of ore tested was exceptionally difficult with a fairly high persentage of\nsilver lead (galena) and a low percentage of zinc blende. He reports\nthat the test was altogether successful\nand prophecies how the discovery of\nthe process will result ln the opening\nup ofi many abandoned propositions. We\nhave aiready entered Into a contract\nwith the Van Rol Mines to have a plant\nerected on their property in British\nColumbia. This plnnt will be erected by\nMr. Levy, who has a goijd knowledge of\nthe field, and is associated with Messrs.\nAlexander Hill and Stewart, the engineers, who are acting as our reprean-\ntatives ln British Columbia. By arrange,\nment with the Van Roi company, in consideration of their being accorded favorable terms as the pioneer users of our\nprocess in that district, the plant will\nbe available for demonstration pur-\nposes. The managers and engineers of\nother mines In British Columbia will\nthus have an opportunity of seeing the\nprocess in actual work on the mine and\nwe entertain little doubt that by this\narrangement a large and profitable business will be developed in British Columbia.\"\nAt the close of thp chairman's address Alexander Hill said: \"The Murex process attracted me In the 'first\ninstance by what seemed to be its\neifectiveness more opcclally the control that the operator seems to have\nover the process itself. All that the\noperator had to do to get the best\nextraction from non-mngnetic minerals\nwas to add a little more or a little less\nof the magnetic solution. Their being\nable to extract from the bulk minerals\nwhich are non-magnetic without subjecting them to some other process,\nsuch as calcination, seemed to me tn\nbe a very important noint. Tt was that\nthat attracted me nnd also the f.int Cup.\non which I think Mr. Lockwood is very\nmuch to be congratulated) that ho\nseems to have combined portions of\nother processes, such as the magnetic\nproces for dry ores and the flotation\nor oil process, into one almost harmonious whole, with very grent simplicity.\nI have had the opportunity of carrying\nout exhaustive tests but I hone to see\na good deai more of it In British Columbia.\"\nARE $15,000,000 BETTER\nWEALTH OF BRITISH COLUMBIA\nGROWS STEADILY \u2014 ASSESSABLE PROPERTY AND INCOME\nIS NEARLY HUNDRED AND SIX\nMILLION\u2014POLICE FOR SKEENA\n(Speclnt to The Dally News.)\nVANCOUVER, Aug. 14\u2014A gain of\nover ?15,000,t)t)0 within the past year\nin the assessable value of property and\nIncome subject to provincial taxation\nover the preceding year, an increase\nof over 16 per cent, is tlie net resul.t.\nof the provincial assessor's returns for\ntlie current fiscal year.

At various times in Its history different parts ot the district\n.have passed through booms both large\nand small and corresponding periods\nof depression. At tlie present moment,\nhowever, nothing in tiie nature of a\nboom is to be seen, the industry is\nprogressing on a safe and sound\nbusis; stock-jobbing and \"wildcat\"\ncompany promoting is almost unheard\nof and tiie development of tlie mines\nin tlie Kootenays and Boundary is being conducted In a manner which cannot but end in success.\nTills sound development on a business basis is not confined to any one\npart of the district but Is rapidly becoming more and more general. Day\nafter day news comes to hand of the\nopening up of old properties and tiie\nbonding and working of both new and\nold mines. Capital is coming Into this\ncountry, not through the efforts of\nunscrupulous company promoters, but\nas a natural result of the hard work\nof tlie mine owners and prospectors,\nbacked by the undoubted natural\nworth of tlie country in the opening\nup of which they have spent many fortunes and many years of labor.\nThe past week has been particularly prolific of these signs of progress\nIn Kootenay and Boundary mining.\nSeveral important deals have been\nconsummated and a large number of\nstrikes have been reported.\nThe largest deal was that in which\ntlie Athabasca mine, near Nelson, was\npurchased by W. Shackleton, A. Bunker, A. W. Constans, A, N. McBetli\nand A. II. Kelly from tlie Hank of\nMontreal. This properly Is one of the\nbest known in tlie vicinity of Nelson\nand has already produced a very\nlarge amount of gold. It Is the intention of the new owners to operate the\nmine with a staff of men at once,\nAnother transaction hardly less important was that In which ,). S. Air-\nheart bonded tlie i'nited mine, near\nAlnsworth, from J, W. Smith and associates. Mi*. Airlieart already controlled the Highland and the Buckeye\nmines in the same district, and it is\nhis Intention fo work the three properties In conjunction with tlie well-\nknown Highland mill, whicli is acknowledged to he one of the most\neconomical plants Jn tlie country. In\noider to convey tlie ore from the\nUnited to the shores of Kootenay\nlake, where the mill is located, a ti'am-\nway will be built, and by means of\ntlie ore from tlie three mines it is expected tliat tlie concentrator will be\nkept working at its full capacity of\nnearly 200 tons per day of ton hours.\nMr. Airlieart Is now In tho States for\nthe purpose of obtaining machinery\nfor the Highland mill which will\nenable not only tlie lead nnd sliver to\nbe separated from tlie ore but also the\nzinc.\nAs far as strikes are concerned the\nSheep creek district last week was\nmore than usually notable for the\nnumber of new and valuable showings\nwhich have been made. One of the\nmost important was that on the Mother Lode, where a new seam of four\nfeet of high grade ore was opened up.\nIt has been estimated that this lead\nwill be at least 1,000 feet in length.\nIt is on the No. '! level of tlie property\nand Is yet another example of tlie fact\ntliat good us are the surface showings\nat Sheep creek, they are even better\nwhen deptli is reached. It was this\nquestion as to whether the ore values nt the creek extended lo depth\nwhicli for some time kept many capitalists from investing their money\nthere.\nSome exceedingly rich discoveries\nhave also been made on the Queen,\none of tlie oldest and most developed\nproperties at the Sheep creek camp.\n.About the middle of the week no less\nthan six additional ledges wero laid\nbare. All these ledges are apart from\ntlie present workings. One of the\nnew leads is a continuation of tiie famous Yellowstone lead, and is from\nfive to six feet in width In $17 milling\nore. Tlie discovery of tills ledge took\nplace while some of the men were repairing a flume above tlie existing\nworkings. They happened to notice a\nnumber of large boulders which, on\nbeing investigated, proved to be connected wltli the main live-foot lead.\nThe Golden Belle, adjoining tlie\nMother Lode, has also come to the\nfore with the discovery of two new\nledges of very high grade sulphide\nore, each one averaging from four to\nfive feet in width.\nTbe Bonanza Is being worked by\nGeorge D. Bell and a large staff of\nmen, who have recently encountered\na valuable new shoot of ore some 400\nfeet west of the old lead. The present operations are being carried on\nat a point about 1,000 feet above the\nprevious workings.\nA. H. Gracey, interviewed by a representative of The Dally News, last\nnight stated tliat he bad received\nnews of a new strike on the Nugget.\nTwo new leads had been exposed running parallel to the previous workings. He had not up to that time received any exact information as to\nthe width of tlie new discoveries or\nas to the value of tlie ore, but he understood that it was in keeping with\nthe high grade nature of tlie showings\non the portions of the mine which had\nbeen developed.\nOn Tuesday a staff of men will be\nset to work on the Golden Fawn at\nSheep creek. This property adjoins\ntlie Nugget and has some remarkably\ngood showings. The owners are C.

McUORUIS    Manager\nONE  LACK   IS  TRANSPORTATION\nAt .ast Kootenay appears to be coming into its own bo far as the confidence\nof the world at large In its resources\nare concerned. This applies equally to\nlumbering, agriculture and mining.\nThere can be no ques'tion of tlie value\nof Ko'toenay's forest wealth. Fruit growing and otlier forms of agriculture have\nlong since passed the experimental\nstage and the acreage under cultivation is increasing year by year and will\ncontinue until tbe vast areas of land\nnow idle have been taken up, while mining has at last recovered from the wild-\neating of early days and is fast being\nplaced on a straight business footing, instead of being conducted in the interests of stock jobbers as in years gone\nby. What more could any country ask\nsome may say and it would appear at\nfirst glance tbat there was now absolutely nothing to keep the country back.\nThere is, however. A glance at the\nsituation will show tbat there is one\nthing lacking and that, ns a result, the\nprogress and development of \"the country is being retarded. The great lack\nof the Kootenay today is mean3 of\ntransportation. This includes not only\n(rails, roads and bridges but also railways. Much of tbe very best timber\nIn this country ts rendered temporarily\nvalueless because there are no mean3\nof getting It to the markets of the\nprairies, thousands upon thousands of\nacres of the finest agricultural land is\nuntouched by the hand of the husbandman because of Its distance from the\npresent lines of transportation and\nmany of the very richest mining districts are today lying Idle awaiting only\nfacilities for shipping ore to smelters\nand thereby adding their share to the\ncountry's wealth and prosperity. It is\ngratiiylng to be able to 'state that the\ngovernment Is doing Its best to meet\ntbe needs in so far as trails, ronds and\nbridges are concerned, but additional\nrailways are at least equally important to the country's development.\nThese are bound to come in the course\nof time. The railways will some day\nconclude their construction war which\nthey are waging in the prairie country\nand will then devote some attention to\nthe supplying of those facilities for\nwhich not only the Kootenay but also\npractically every other portion of British Columbia Is -crying aloud.\nThe needs of the north are being met\n\"co a certain extent by the construction\nof the Grand Trunk Pacific which will\nnecessarily have to develop the terrl-\ntory along its line. This company also\nhas' under way plans tor a branch from\nits main line to Vancouver. This will\nopen up another section of as fine country perhaps as can be found anywhere.\nIn the souther* portion of the province,\ntliat Is the portion between the main\nline of the C.P.R. and the international\nboundary line, the resources of which\nhave been established beyond question\nbut which cannot be taken advantage\nof to anything like a reasonable extent\nowing to lack of transportation facilities, there Is practically nothing doing\nin tbe way of railway construction except what the Great Northern is doing\non Its line from the Boundary to Vancouver, the steel on which is now laid\nns far west as Hedley.\nThe C.P.R., at the present time, holds\ncharters for lines in all parts of this\ncountry, but prefers to defer construction in the hope of securing renewals\nfrom parliament, in tlie meantime devoting their energies to fighting the\nGrand Trunk Pacific and Canadian\nNorthern for possession of the fertile\nprahle country, in this struggle the\nC.P.R. has displayed all its well known\nresourcefulness in preventing either of\nthese roads getting ahead of it, knowing, at the same time, that neither of\nthese roads were for the time being in\na position to attack It in U10 British\nColumbia field, where the apathy of the\nGreat Northern could only be explained by its activity in other directions.\nThe result has been tbat railway construction has been, for a long time, at\na standstill in southern British Columbia.\nThe situation, however, has changed\nsn far as the Grand Trunk Pacillc and\ntlie Canadian Northern are concerned,\nbut particularly so in regard to ^10\nlazier. That road Is now anxious to\nget to the Paclllc coast, and in tlje\nordinary course of events It Is only a\nquestion of time until it do.es so.\nThe line, as talked of, will run from\ntlie Yellowliead pass to Vancouver,\nfollowing the Thompson as far as\nKamloops, and from there either\nparalelllng the C.P.R. southwesterly to\nthe Terminal City, or running down\nthrough tbe Nicola valley and over\nthe Hope mountains to the same destination. No line, however, can Invade the southern portion of British\nColumbia, as the Canadian Northern\nevidently proposes doing, and leave\nthe Kootenay out of consideration, and\nthere is evidence ulready tnat that\nroad has no intention of doing so. Already It lias arranged with the government of Alberta for assistance in\nthe construction of a line which will\nconnect Coleman, Alberta, which Is\npractically on tho British Columbia\nboundary, with Calgary, while another\nline for which assistance has also\nbeen granted to the same road hy the\nAlberta government will reach the\nBritish Columbia boundary through\nthe south Kootenay pass, which would\ngive It access to the Flathead country,\nfrom wheic there would he nothing\nto prevbnt the continuation of the\nline across this provlnce.t From Coleman the Canadian Northern, once It\nhas built that far, can gain access\nto British Columbia either by taking\n\u25a0advantage of the clause In the charter of the Crow's Nest Pass railway\ngiving all other railways running\nright over the line, or by building another line paralelllng the present\nC.P.R. one. Tbe Dally News is not\nin the confidence of the Canadian\nNorthern any more than it Is in that\nof the C.P.R., Grand Trunk Pacific or\nGreat Northern, and ho cannot say\nwhat the road's object.Ib In building\ntuese lines to the British Columbia\nboundary, but it Is hardly likely that\nit is tbe company's intention that they\nshould end there. It may also be\nnoted tbat the Grand Trunk Pacific\nhave been given assslstance by the Alberta government lor a lino from their\nsystem In that province to a point\nnear Coleman, and it would look as\nthough that line was also coming this\nway, while the Great Northern has already a line running through the\nCrow's Nest Pass from Elko to Michel,\nand which Mr. Louis Hill, president\nof the road, has announced is\nto be extended to Winnipeg some day.\nThe question for the government\nand the people of the province to consider is whether anything can be\ndone to hasten the construction of\nthese lines, or at least of some of\nthem. The accruing benefits would be\ntwofold. Their construction would\nnot only provide for the particular\nsections they might traverse tbe\ntransportation facilities, the lack of\nwhich is retarding the development\nof the country, but they would also result in the C.P.R. assuming an aggressive construction policy In this province, such as it is at present pursuing\non the prairies, and building some of\ntho lines, at least, for which they hold\ncharters. Tiie result of uie general\nrailway construction tbat would be\nlikely to follow in the struggle for\nterritory would be tbat British Columbia In general, hut Kootenay ln particular, would at last begin to come\nInto its own. Anything, therefore,\nthat tlie government may do ln the\nway of reasonable encouragement of\nrailway construction should receive\ngeneral support.\ncase two young boys were navigating\na launch, which, owing to tho carelessness of those on board, ran down\nand cut ln two a boat ln which were\na man and a woman. Had It not been\nfor the man's energy and presence of\nmind be and his companion would\nhave drowned.\nIn tne Interests of boating these\nmatters should be attended to. In Its\nwater front Nelson has an asset of\nuntold value. If, however, boating Is\ngoing to be made unsafe through the\nneglect of launch and boat owners to\ncarry lights and through general carelessness in the handling of the craft\non the lake the people of tbe city will\nbe prevented from securing from it the\nenjoyment which nature meant should\nbe theirs.\nBIG  CARGO\nLIGHTS ON THE LAKE\nIn today's issue of The Dally News\nis published a letter from Mr. C. W.\nBusk, commodore of the Kootenay\nLaunch club, in reference to the carrying of lights after dark. In his communication Mr. Busk states that not\nonly, according to regulations, are\nlaunches required to carry lights after\ndark, but bo also are row boats, canoes\netc. Apparently then it Is only a matter of enforcing the law.\nIn the interests of public safety\naction In this direction should be\ntaken at once. Otherwise, sooner or\nlater, a fatal accident Is certain to\noccur. After that the law would likely be enforced, but there Is absolutely no reason why this desirable end\nshould be secured at the cost of\nhuman life, if necessary it would be\nmuch better that a few people should\nbe forced to pay good stiff lines for\ntheir violations of the law rather than\ntiiat the present dangerous condition\nof affairs should be allowed to continue.\nWhile on (lie subject of (he safety\nof boating on the lake it might not be\nout of place to remark that a little\nmore care generally on the part of\ntbe launch and boat owners might not\nbe out of place. Especially should\nnone but responsible parties bo allowed to navigate launches. Only the\nother evening there was an instance\nof this when a double drowning was\nnarrowly averted.

C.\nIRRIGATIOIUN CANADA\nJ. S. DENNIS ADDRESSES SPOKANE\nMEETING   ON   SUBJECT\nTELLS WHAT  HAS  BEEN   DONE  IN\nTHIS DIRECTION\nSpeaking before the National Irrigation congress at Spokane on \"Irrigation and Irrigation Development in\nCanada,\" J. S. Dennis, member of the\nCanadian Society of Civil Engineers\nand assistant to second vice president\nof the Canadian Pacific Hallway company, said in part:\n\"The principle of Irrigation as a\nmeans of insuring crop production is\n-confined in Canada to the southwestern portion of the provinces of Saskatchewan and the southern portions\nof the provinces of Alberta and British Columbia. In the first two provinces irrigated land is used chiefly for\nthe production of grain, fodder and\nroot crops, but In British Columbia the\nareas are utilized foi* the growth of\nfruit. Irrigation in all these provinces\nis a matter of comparatively recent\nhistory and, in fact, may be said to he\nthe result of the last 20 years.\n\"The use of water through Irrigation\nhas now, however, extended beyond\nthe experimental stage and has made\nwonderful strides during the last ten\nyears in reclaiming large areas. In\nsoutheastern Saskatchewan the systems, though numerous, are small and\nare largely confined to the areas on\nthe nortli and south slopes of the Cypress hills, and the introduction of\nsystems for the reclamation of large\nareas in that district is limited by the\ninsufficiency of the water supply.\nWater Abundant In B. C.\n\"fn British Columbia, which is a\nmountainous country, the water supply is bountiful, but the areas suitable\nfor Irrigation are available only in the\nvalleys and are small in extent, and,\nalthough the systems now in operation\nor under construction comprise many\nhundreds in number, tbe total area of\nirrigated land is not more than aoo,-\n000 acres.\n\"It Is in the great plains region of\nsouthern Alberta that the great Canadian irrigation projects aro situated\nand there tiie principle o. lrrtgatlo|\nhas been extended until today we have\nsome 150 Irrigation systems completed\nor under construction capable of supplying water for the irrigation of\n1,750,000 acres.\n\"Southern Alberta comprises a great\nopen plateau extending from the\nRocky mountains eastward for 200 .\nmiles, and the portion within which i\nIrrigation Is practiced extends northerly from the international boundary\nfor another 200 miles. This portion of\nthe province has many fine rivers like\nthe St. Mary's, the Belly, the Kootenay, tlie Old Man. High river, together\nwith many smaller streams.\n\"The Introduction or Irrigation in\nthis region began about If) years ago\nthrough the efforts of the ranchmen\nto Improve the production of fodder\non bottom lands by the construction\nof small and Inexpensive ditches lo\ndivert water.\nC. P. R, Pushes Development\n\"The great impetus, however, was\ngiven to the irrigation development In\nsouthern Alberta by the decision of\nthe Canadian Pacific Railway company\nin 1908 to undertake the reclamation\nof a vast block of land comprising\n3,000,000 acres situated along the main\nrailway line to the east of the city\nof Calgary.\n\"The area embraced In the Canadian Pacific Railway company's 'Irrigation block,* as it Is commonly called,\nIs bounded on the west by the Bow\nriver, on the east by the line between\nranges 10 and 11 west of the fourth\nmeridian, on the soutii by the Bow\nriver and on the north by the Hod\nDeer river and the north boundary of\ntownship 28. It has a length from\neast to west of 150 miles and an average width from north to south of 40\nmiles, and its magnitude may be illustrated by stating that It Is larger than\nthe states of Connecticut and Rhode\nIsland combined.\n\"In developing this Irrigation project\nthe block was divided into three sections\u2014eastern, central and western-\ncontaining about 1,1)00.000 acres each,\nand the construction of canals and incidental colonization Is being carried i\non along the lines of development of\nthe sections separately, beginning\nwith the western.\nTotal Area 1,200.000 Acres\n\"The general engineering surveys\nso far completed, indicate that of the\ntotal area about 1,200,000 acres can\nhe irrigated, of which 350,000 acres\nare situated In the western section.\nThe water for tiio Irrigation of land\nwithin this block is diverted from Ihe\nlioiv river tit two main points, the\nmost westerly being situated about\ntwo miles below the city of Calgary\nand the most easterly about 50 miles\neast of that city. In tlie western section the construction of canals nnd\nditches is well advanced. At ths close\nof the year 1908 some 1,350 miles of\ncanals and ditches were completed,\nand during the present year 500 miles\nof additional canals and ditches will\nbe constructed, giving a total of 1,050\nmiles of waterways within that section of tlie block for the Irrigation oi'\nthe 360,000 acres of land mentioned ln\nthe western section.\n\"The engineering surveys indicate\nthat about tlie same amount of canals\nand ditches will be required in each\nof the other sections; and the completed scheme will, therefore, comprise the construction by the company\nof some 5,000 miles of waterway at a\ntotal estimated cost of $0,000,000.\n\"The land Is sold from maps which\nenable the purchaser to see exactly\nwhere tlie water is to be delivered on\nthe boundary of his quarter section,\nand these maps also show from actual\ncontour surveys tlie area which Is Irrigable on each 100 acres.\n\"The irrigation project of the Canadian Pacific Hallway company from\nthe standpoint of area included In the\nblock, area to be actually irrigated and\nmileage of canals and ditches constructed, may. I think, be spoken of\nas America's greatest individual irrigation project.\"\nPROFESSIONAL CARDS\nEGO & HALDANE\nGEORGE C. EGG\nAssoolate   Royal   Architectural    Inst.\nCanada.

Three\n\u25a0thousand strikers escorted the body to\nPittsburg while the remainder of ihe\nstrikers stood guard at the works on\naccount of a rumor that more new men\nwould he taken Into tlie car plant during the funeral services.

P. R. GIVES LIBERAL TERMS ON\nKOOTENAY   LANDS\nSYSTEMATIC   EFFORT TO  DISPOSE\nOF   RAILWAY  GRANTS\nThe Canadian Pacific railway company is offering land for sale in Southern British Columbia for tlie low price\nof $5 p<Sr acre and to induce settlement in this section of our great province, of hardy, thrifty pioneers they\nhave made the purchase price payable\nin eight yearly installments, thus giving the settler time to improve his\nland and make it pay for itself.\nTlie company has recently issued\ntwo books of very complete Information regarding Southern British Columbia and British Columbia generally\n\u2014its hiutory-, climate, resources, in-\nduuXrles. eto,\nMaps, on which itre shown in pink\nthe hinds for sale by this department,\nand copies of this regulation governing\nthe sale of land in the Columbia &.\nWestern und Columbia &.. Kootenay\nland grants with application forms-\nagricultural and timber\u2014for these railways and \"the B. Q. Southern.\nIt wll] be noticed from the regulations that \"first class lands, suitable\nfor agricultural purposes in their present, condition or which are capable of\nbeing brought under cultivation profitably by clearing or which are wild hay\nmeadows\" are offered In quarter sections (1G0 acre tracts) for jo per acre,\npayable one-eighth down and the balance In seven equal annual installments\nThat Is 62 1-2 cents per acre each year.\nor $100 down and $100 por year for\nseven years for 160 acres\u2014total $S0fl.\nShould the settled select land with\n'Umber on it (no part with an average\nextent of more than 3000 feet board\nmeasure per acre for C. & W. lauds Or\n5000 feet per acre for B.C.S. or C. & K.\nlands Is classed as agricultural land)\nhe wottid he required to pay only $1.00\nper thousand feet for the merchantable\ntimber on the land. All the remainder\nthat he uses on the place, fnr houses,\nbarns, fences, fuel, etc.. Is free.\nThese lands in varying localities are\nideal for general mixed truck, fruit,\ndairy or stock farming, as tlie case mav\nbe.\nThe development of Southern British\nColumbia has been very rapid during\nIhe iast few years nnd the settlers in\n'tbis country can no longer lie properly\ntermed pioneers. Oood towns and cities\nare now frequent along the lines of the\nC.P.R. nnd the land offered for sale is\nmuch of it nenr these towns, where\ngood schools, churches, banks and nil\nkinds of stores have been established.\nThe simple facts are that the pursuit of agriculture In Southern British\nColumbia is favored beyond many\nother sections of Canada nnd the United\nStates by the natural conditions which\nexist. And when the price at which\nthe C.P.R. Is willing to sell these\nlands Is taken Into consideration, there\nIs small chance of other lands yielding\nn better return on the investment.\nWhat thp C.P.R. desires to offer \\%\nland sn low in cost compared with\nIts yielding capacity thai, those who Investigate carefully cannot, but decide\nIn favor of Southern British Columbia.\nThe railway is In a position to sell\nland at a nominal price for the reason\nthat It is primarily a \"transportation\ncompany and relies for profit from the\nsale of, land mainly on the transportation of the produces raised on the\nInnd.\na. l.
