BURN; Vancouver Branch: A. H. MACNEILL, K.C.; ERIC W. HAMBER; HE Great Clay Belt of Northern Ontario extends Westerly from Quebec to the Manitoba boundary, lying one degree south of Winnipeg. Its bush relieves the monotony of the scene, protects from storm and wind, furnishes timber for the settler's dwelling and fuel for his winter need, as well as a source of income; large rivers and lakes and many lakelets water the land and offer fine inducements to stock raising and dairy farming. Thousands of miles of colonization roads and steam railways are spreading like a spider's web over that vast new land. A settler can ride from the big cities of Ontario or the West in a Pullman if he wishes almost to his own door. This is some thing new in pioneer life. Southern Ontario people should think of this great opportunity lying right at their own door, with its farming sections peopled mostly by their kindred or their own race. And intending settlers from the British Isles should consider that North Bay (the eastern entrance to it) is only 350 miles from Montreal, whereas Winnipeg is 1,420 miles, Regina 1,771, and Calgary 2,251. This rich agricultural land may be had by returned soldiers and sailors in 160-acre blocks free; to others 18 years and over 50c. per acre. Our literature descriptive of this great country may be had free on application. G. H. FERGUSON, Minister of Lands, Forests and Mines Write H. A.
