An unsigned letter in the last issue of The Newtiskea.rd Speaker gives a rather original plan for the future colonization of the North Land. The plan has many objections, or appar- ent objections, but it is worthy of consideration. In any event it may be set down as a truth that present and past plans for the colonizing of the North Land need much improve- ment and new ideas accordingly should be welcomed and fully con- sidered with a view to seeing ,i.i;' some improvement may not be aehieved. For this reason the letter is given in part, as followsy---' The plan is that the Government through the. use of portable mills, take all the timber of a Township and manufacture, timber, pulp, ties, pit props, fence posts and by doing that there would be very little left to do. on a lot, in the way of chopping. There would be enough money receiv- ed from the products, to pay for the bringing of all brush and refuse, be- sides paying for roads, bridges, school house, church, and then leave a sub- stantial balance. .

Now this scheme is not only a paying proposition finaneially but it puts the settler in a much better position to fulfil his ambition, that is to start farming. With the present system of colonizing the country is left very much to the settler's own re- sources and in ninety-nine cases out of one hundred he has never cleaned ‘bush land for farming. Another dis- advantage the. settler is up against, at 1 least in the district. surrounding Fail. j lington, and I presume other places' are subject to the same disadvantage, that is he is compelled to waste half his timber through the conditions the pulp eo.'s enforce, in the way of only taking certain kinds of tiniber, [and in most cases the remaining: 50 per cent. of timber left standing is destroyed in the process, of clearing the land, which not only entails considerable tinaneial loss to the country and set- tler hut adds to the .pioneer's work of clearing lamlready for the plough. Under Mr. Chalmer's plan the com- munity scheme could be worked out successfully, and as one township was Inut in shape, the mills could proceed put in shape, the nuns couiu pruceuu to the next. . Thus there would be plenty of work right at, 1,".ne, settler's own door, and he would be in a, position to take care of himself by the time the Govern- ment had the other townships timber- As in the West, exeursions could be arran,ged to this country, then after working so long on the road or at working so long 'on the road or at timber, a eheup return ticket given if so Jes/ d. g - " I F In tl?is way an increased number ot prospective settlers, could be brought into New Ontario, and a large per- centage of them become permanent residents.
