The property of the Hudson Bay Company, is well situ- ated in a thriving settlement, traversed by the New Westminster and Yale wagon road. The land is well watered by the Nicomeke? and Salmon Rivers. Nearly TWO-THIRDS of the whole is OPEN LAND, the re- mainder being timbered (not heavily) with alder, cotton- wood, fir, cedar, etc., most of which is easily cleared. The SOIL of the open land is chiefly black loam, in some parts two feet deep, and of the timbered land a lighter and in part sandy loam on clay subsoil. Several of the subdivisions consist entirely of OPEN PRAIRIE LAND, having in parts scattering copses of cotton wood, birch, brush, etc, A large extent is cultivated in hay, timothy and grass, enclosed with seven or eight miles of rail fencing, chiefly cedar.

A first-rate System, maintained by the Government, is established throughout the Province ; the settlers in each district elect their own school trustees annually, and these have the control of the school under a CENTRAL BOARD OF EDUCATION. Wherever 12 or 15 chil- dren of school agalive in a district a new school may be opened there ; at least one such school already exists close to the Farm. An ordained Minister of the Church of Scotland resides at Langley and holds regular ser- vices there and at other places alternately. Other preachers also make occasional visits. ^ MAP OF TV RVEYED AND SUBDIVIDED FOR DECEMBEI 1877. 17 105.3A- A. AP OF THE IDED FOR THE HUDSONS BAY CO.
