“T believe that the time has come for the building of a railroad through Northern
British Columbia to the Yukon and Alaska. The extension of the Pacific Great Eastern

Railway into the Peace River country will make a splendid initial step towards the
construction of a north and south railway.”
moving second reading of
February 27th, 1914.

From speech of Sir Richard McBride .in
3il1 in the: Legislative Assembly,

-acific Great Kastern

Any British subject, a widow, or single woman over eighteen years, who is self-
supporting, or alien who declares his intention of becoming a British subject, may take
up pre-emptions in British Columbia. Three years’ residence and improvements to the
value of $5 an acre and fee of $10 secures Crown grant in fee-simple. Aliens must
become naturalized. Pre-emptions, 160, 80, and 40 acres. Crown land may be bought
up to 640 acres at $5 and at $10 an acre.

The country now being open and rendered available for settlement by the construc-
tion of the Pacific Great Eastern Railway contains many areas of farming lands of
excellent soil, which may be made highly productive by the practice of up-to-date farming
methods. City and town markets are increasing in number and co-operative marketing
associations are being formed, thus enabling the farmers to market their produce to the
best advantage.
