Prospectors complain that the cost of getting the affidavit sworn to, either a trip out to a J.P. or some other qualified person, or the taking of that person in to the prospector is a burden. As the time allowance for recording is great it is probable that. maps of that area only contain a small proportion of stakings and the situation will no doubt be much worse by fall.‘" *‘*The Federal government can aboâ€" lish the antiquated oneâ€"line method eof staking in the Western provinces and substitute the fourâ€"line system.
