B-cnOWN LANDS.

ADMINISTRATION OF CROWN LANDS
The surveyed Crown lands adapted to agriculture are granted by
the Department of Colonjzation, Mines and Fisheries to settlers desirous
of devoting themselves to farming, while lands unsuitable for cultivation
are reserved for forestry operations.

The land'3 so sUl'veyed and destined to cultivation are divided into
farm lots to be sold through the intermediary of Crown Lands Agents
located in i.he various colonization regions of the Province,

As t.he lands are cleared, the Government has new townships
surveyed and sells the lots at a very moderate figure (60 cents pel' acre)
payable in yearly instalments. An inspection service composed of people
residing in the new parishes watches over the clearing in order to prevent
abuse and pillage. In this manner the Department can make sure that
the lands are not neglected.
