In furtherance of this aim the pur- chasers must at their own expense construct and maintain all roads, bridges and other improvements that may be necessary in the interest of the settlers. Adequate provision must also be made for the instituâ€" tion of public schools and the erec- tion of suitable school grounds. The schools, of course, will receive the usual municipal and Government aid. This provision is said to he import- ant, as settlers who are willing to tax themselves often tind no market for their school debentures. “One of the most important fea- tures of the arrangements." explain- ed ”on.

The erection of these mills will accomplish the two-Bold object. namely. furnish a market to the settlers for their timber right at their doors. and also furnish abund- ant lumber and all kinds of finished building material not only for the settlers in these townships but for other settlers in that locality. The agreement states that the pur- chasers, if requested by the Mini~ter, must imprnve farms by clearingr thereon “.35 aeres. huildini: a llnlh‘c' and ham, and digging a well, and it is understnod that this will he re- quested. “It is understand," said Mr. Hearst. “that, these improved farms may attract well-to-do settlers who will brim: mnsiderahle nmney lllln the muntry. and who would not be willimr to undergo the hardships at- tendant upon pioneer farming in the usual way. This experiment will de- monstrate tn the Government whe- ther ur not it is expedient or neces- sary to embark upon a large scheme of improving farms in the north, as has been advocated in some quar« tors." Under an agreement with the Pro- .vincial Government, Mr. Willis K. Jackson. a lumber merchant of But- lalo. and his associates are to pay $98,364 for as many acres of land in the townships of Haggai-t and Ken- dry. in Northern Ontario. and will forthwith clear the land. establish saw mills. and bring settlers into the distrit‘t. It is also prox'lded under the agreement that at the discretion of the Minister of Lands. Forests and Mines improved farms will he prepared. which are to be sold at a prime to be named by him.

COLONIZING EXPERIMENT OF TWO TOWNSHIPS Syndicate Obtains Terms From the Government as to Ownership and Settlement t1 '10 There is a water power situated in the property. but this. together with the beds of all stream; in the town- shipsand the right to storage of wa- ter for power purposes. has been reserved to the Crown. and 900 acres haVe been resen’ed at the site of the power to the Crown to afford ample lroom for the location and develop- ment of any industries that might lliereaftcr require this power. The (‘rown has also reserved a town site of 404 acres on the banks of the Mat- talrami River. The purchasers are not permitted to lay out any town sites except. with the consent of the (hwernment. and it. is expected that the industries that. will be establish ed by the compam will create an ac- .tive market for the (imernment town site when the same is offered for sale. A reasonable tract of land will be granted to the purchasers for .the location of their mills as soon as the construction of these mills and the installation of the machin- ery therein haVe been completed. but the ownership of all other lands will llie retained in thc f‘rown and only t-nrml under the :tm't-ettimtt.
