A report from the city solicitor on the\nsubject was read as follows:\nOfflce of the City Solicitor,\nPrince Rupert, B.C.,\nJanuary 26, 191u.\nHis Worship the Mayor and Council\nCity of Prince Rupert.\nRe Municipal Assessment Year 1915.\nGentlemen,\u2014At a meeting of the\nCouncil held on Monday, 25th inst.,\nthe question of how the assessment\nroll for the present year should Ik\nmade up was discussed in a preliminary manner.\nThe question raised was whether\nthe Assessor should proceed to compile his assessment under Part 1,\nSection 205, of the Municipal Act,\nor whether the Council should, under the authority of Part 2 of said\nSection, adopt for this year the assessment roll of last year; and, with\n\u2022'a view to further proceedings, it was\nMethodist Church Musical i\nService |\nSUNDAY EVENING NEXT, JANUARY :$1\n, At 7:.'\u00ab) o'clock\nAnthem\u2014\"The Lord Is My Shepherd\" Masfaj'i'en\nSolo\u2014\"Sing Ye Praise\" Mendelssohn\nMr. C D.

He has, to the best of his\njudgment, following the lines laid\ndown by the Muniplcal Act, to decide\nwhat valuations should be put upon\n\u00b0ach lot in the who.e city. This\nduty has always been most difficult,\ntj perfi tn in such a way as to give\nsatisfaction to all ratepayers.\nAn assessor may, in some municipalities, at some time, find himself\nmeeting -inflated values on account of\nwhat is commonly known as a boom,\nand a level-headed assessor does the\nDest he can to meet that condition,\nnot always successfully.\nAt the present time in the city of\nPrince Rupert, and all over tlritish\nColumbia, the very opposite of a\nboom exists, and the Assessor ln this\nor In any other municipality, If he!made,\nwished to make a reasonable assess-, ia)\na report equalities and practically joined in sessment to stand for this year. As\nment, will be met, not with the\n'rouble of a boom, but with ihe\ntrouble of a panic.\nIn the case of a boom bis object\nshould be, and no doubt would be,\nto keon himself cool ami not put on\nao high values^ but in the case of\nI i panic such as we have existing at\nj the present time it will be doubly\nthe request that they should be corrected, and this was done.\nIf, therefore, we start with the\nproposition that we have tbe Assessment Roll of 1914, which, although'\nIt may not be absolutely perfect\nfund I might say no assessment roll\nwas ever perfect), nevertheless it\nappeared to be satisfactory to the\nratepayers ot large.\nThe Municipal Act, Section 205,\nSub-section 2, gives to the Council\npower as follows:\n\"If It thinks fit, by resolution\nadopt for any year the assessment\nroll of the previous year, with such\namendments and alterations as are\nby this section made permissible.\"\nThe section further provides what\nthese amendments and alterations\nare to be, and they are fully set out\nin tbe section under heads (a), (b),\nand (c). The amendments are to be\nmade by the Assessor before the passing uf the final resolution adopting\nthe old list; the alterations to be\nput shortly, are:\nChanges of ownership.\nth) Correction of manifest errors\nin the name of the as ^ssod owner\nor ! tho description of the property.\nfc) Alterations with regard lo Improvements made on the land since\nlast assessed.\nI understand the question of assessing land, the great point is to see\nthat all parties are assessed on an\nequal basis, and no person is really\nhurt even If the assessment on his\npiece of property is too high, provided his neighbors are assessed at a\nproportionate rate.\nIt appears to me that Sub-section\n2, Section 205, for whatever reason\nit was passed, is well calculated to\nmeet the present emergency, and\nshould be taken advantage of.\nWith regard to the procedure to\nbe adopted, I think the first thing\nIs that the Council should pass a resolution proposing that the Assessment Roll for last year be adppted.\nThis resolution should be sent to\nthe City Assessor, who should then\nbe Instructed to examine the assessment roll of 1914 and make the\namendments pointed out by Sub-sec-\n(Continued on Puee Two I\nmembers of the Council will leave\nthis evening for the south by the\nPrincess May and will be at liberty\nto proceed east if they deem it necessary in connection with the finances\nof the city.\nLast night Aid. McClymont called\nattention to the fact that he had left\nCouncil last Monday before this came\nup. He said he did not approve of\ntwo going. While the situation might\nbe critical it was not intricate. Having *in view criticisms on a former\noccasion when representatives went\non a financial tour he did not want\nthe Council to become open to such\ncriticism again. There were complaints made then about hauling a\nsecond man at.o*,s ttifc cc.itinent.\nThere might be the same in this\ncase.\nThe mayor said he was perfectly\nwilling to have the matter brought\nup. He had talked it over with\nevery member before taking the\nstep.\n\"With one exception,\" interjected\nAid. Montgomery.\nThe mayor said he might be allowed to finish. He was going to say\nwith the exception of Aid. Montgomery. He had not taken it up with\nthe latter, believing it would be a\nhopeless case to secure his co-operation. He might have been wrong on\nthat point, but he had so decided.\nHe had sought to have the assistance\nof Aid. Morrissey, who was, perhaps,\nmore conversant with the financial\nside than the city solicitor.\nThe mayor added that if only one\nwere sent there was the danger in\nthese days of graft of fixing up a\ndeal.

Maitland felt that this year\nthe assessment might be lowered\nconsiderably. He had not gone into\nthis report of the solicitor. He presumed, however, that if the assessment of last year was adopted the\nrate of taxation should be much\nlower.\nAid, McClymont, referring to his\nminority report brought in at a\nprevious meeting, said that be understood that the Council could not\ninstruct the Assessor.

BRADSTACK.\nJ. P. Meehan, Agent.\nDated August. 22, 1914. s26\nThe interesting experiment undertaken by the Hon. William R. Ross,\nK.C., Minister of Lands, to determine by actual test the scope of the\ndry-land areas of the province for\nsettlement purposes, to investigate\nthe possibilities under dry-farming\nmethods of the,, great empty places\ngiven over to roaming herds us range\nlands, has been shown to have been\namply justified in a report made by\nPfof. W. J. Elliott, advisor-in-\ncharge, on the work during the past\nyear, the first year of this important\nwork fraught with such consequence\nto the settlement and development\nof ii large portion of British Columbia,\nAt the present time the province\nhas vast areas of so-called \"dry\nland\" and the experiments are designed to answer the question as to\nwhether those vast areas are only\ngood for grazing purposes, or as to\nwhether they may be used for settlement purposes, provided modern\nmethods of dry-farming are pursued. To demonstrate this, two\nfarms were established, and the results of the first year's crop have\nbeen encouraging.\nOn the height of a rolling plateau\nheld in reserve as a pasture commonage in Nicola, about four miles\nsouth from Quilchena; and in the\nmidst of the big interior plateau of\nCentral British Columbia, two farms\nwere established at comparatively\nhigh elevations\u2014the Quilchena farm\nis 3,800 feet above the sea, where\nthe annual precipitation does not\nreach a total of eleven inches. These\nexperimental dry-land farms established by tlle Hon. the Minister of\nLands, which are attracting wide attention, plainly indicate the possibilities of successful agriculture by\ndry farming processes in the drier\nparts of British Columbia, and will\ndoubtless tend toward great development; to the bringing of millions of\nacres in the Dry Belt, now considered utilable only as range, under the\nplough.\nThe two farms, each tilled by two\nmen skilled in dry-farming, are divided into numerous plats and the\nexperimental work is carried on in a\nthorough manner, not only to show\nthe general possibilities of dry-\nfarming, but also to indicate the\ncrops which grow to the best advantage under prevalent conditions. The\ngrains and grasses grown during tbe\nyear Included many kinds, among\nthem those grown on the Great\nPlains and other dry land sections\nelsewhere, and success was generally\nachieved.\nIn his report, W. J. Elliott, ad-\nvisor-in-charge, said: \"In summing\nup the information that may be\ndrawn from the first year's experimental work (1914) In the 105-Mile\nDistrict, we would anticipate that\nthe dry-land areas that the possible\nof cultivation could be morei profitably used for settlement purposes\nthan for grazing, for the following\nreasons:\n(1) Seven varieties of wheat\nhave been successfully grown, ranging in yields from 20 to 30 2-3 bush\nels per acre. These were all the\nwheats tried and there was not a\nfailure in a single crop.\n(2) A total of eight different varieties- of oats were successfully\ngrown. These ranged from 38 to\n65 1-2 bushels per acre.\n. (3) A bulk crop of 17 acres of\nNewmarket oats were grown, averaging 3!) bushels per acre. There\nwas not a failure in a single oat tcrop\ngrown.\nill Alfalfa and the common ancl\nmammoth red clovers have done\n.well and have gone into winter in\nvery good condition, the alfalfa es-\npeciullv so.\n(5) With oats doing so well, and\nalfalfa and other legumes, to say the\nleast, very promising, it would appear that the settlers feed problems\nSkeena Lana District \u2014 District of\nCoast, Range 5.\nTAKE NOTICE that I, HugH McLean, intend to apply for a licence\nto prospect for coal and petroleum\non the following described lands:\nCommencing at a post planted about\nhalf a mile north of the Beaver\nRiver and 4 1-2 miles west of the\nCedar River; thence east 80 chains,\nthence south 80 chains, thence west\n80 chains, thence north SO chains to\nthe point it commencement, containing 040 acres, to be known as H.

The encouraging\nfeatures with regard to the Quilchena crop might be summed up as\nfollows:\n\"The moisture for the twelve\nmonths prior to the harvesting of\nthis year's crop is practically as\nmuch on the Commonage a^ at 105-\nMile House, the figures being: 105-\nMile House, 10.94 inches; Quilchena, 10,34 inches. Tlle daily average maximum and minimum temperature by months are very similar\nindeed.\" \"''\" \" *\nUp to the middle of July tbe crops\nactually grown on the Commonage\nwere, if anything, better than those\ngrown at 105-Mile House.\nAlfalfa seemed to do as well at\nQuilchena as at 105-Mile House.\nThe various varieties of clovers\nhave also done well.\nPotatoes and vegetables seem to\ndo as well at Quilchena as at 105-\nMile House.\nThe portions of crops not destroyed by the grasshoppers produced perfectly matured grain.\nWe are, therefore, justified in assuming that practically as good\ncrops would have been grown on tho\nCommonage us at 105-Mile House.\nAfter Sareful'y considering the results obtained by the first year's\nWork at 105-Mile House, and after\ncomparing with these tbe promise of\nresults In evidence on the Common\nage before the devastation by the\ngrasshopper, we certainly feel that\nthe work of this year has been successful. Indeed, the foregoing results are ample justification tor the\naction on the part of the Department\nof Lands, In determining to actually\ntest these various dry-land areas\nwith a view to seeing as to whether\nor not they are suitable for settlement purposes.\ncontaining 40 acres more or less.\nH.
