 Cable Address . . . . ** Philip, New Westminster." 
 
 
 MESSRS. PHILIP, GIBSON & CO. in placing before 
 Investors a List of Properties on their boolis for sale, 
 beg- to offer some facts of a general character regarding 
 .the District of New Westminster, which should weigh with 
 those who wish to purchase land for a home or for invest- 
 ment. ' # 
 
 1. Climate. The climate is throughout moderate and 
 very healthy, in fact it is much the same as that of the 
 British Isles. 
 
 2. Population. The population of the Province is 
 only about 100,000, located chiefly in this district and Vic- 
 toria and Nanaimo* It is rapidly increasing. The elements 
 which make its rapid g»-owth certain, are : — (i) The extent 
 and value of the undeveloped agricultural lands, much of 
 which has be jn held idle by speculators, who are now sell- 
 ing off at very moderate prices ; (2) The importance of the 
 District commercially and in relation to the Pacific Trade 
 — it being now in direct communication with China, Japan, 
 India and Australasia; and (3) The immense wealth of the 
 Province in respect of its mining, fishing and timber re- 
 sources. Of the fishing resources the fact may be cited 
 that the current canning season on the Eraser River alone 
 will bring in from exports of fish about $2,500,000. 
 
 3. Land. J-iaving personally examined nearly all the 
 farms on the list, testimony can be given of their quality and 
 condition. Almost all the land is of a very high class, and 
 
 I

 under careful cultivation will yield immense crops. Even 
 on half-cultivated Delta and meadow lands 3 tons of hay 
 per acre is a very common crop, and that readily sells at 
 $12 per ton. The root crops and also the crops of oats 
 grown are immense and the quality is first rate. Fruit 
 growing, hop growing and dairying" are to be the great 
 staple industries of the District, and all these will yield 
 liberal profits to the farmer. The great need of the 
 District is settlers of a good class who would occupy and 
 cultivate the vast areas of splendid land, and the following 
 list will give some idea of the cla<ss of properties that can 
 be purchased at the present time. 
 
 4. City and Suburbs of New Westminster. Philip, 
 Gibson & Company have confidence in recommending 
 investment in City and Suburban properties. Though the 
 interests of the Royal City have been neglected by the 
 Government in the matter of perfecting the Fr-iser River 
 as a channel for navig-ation, with her splendid fresh 
 water highway, it is only necessary that her citizens 
 stand by her rights at the proper time to have all 
 she needs conceded. In any event New Westminster is 
 the natural and only real centre for the agricultural, timber 
 and fishing- industries, and these will continue with her. 
 
 The water works and the electric lighting plant, owned 
 by the City, are of nearly double the value to the citizens 
 of the whole debt that is on the City, and they add larg^ely 
 to its otherwise g"reat natural attractiveness. 
 
 TERMS. In almost every case, the purchaser of any 
 of the properties on the ibllowing" list, can get excellent 
 terms of payment. In some cases existing mortg-ages 
 for a considerable proportion can remain. 
 
 M- 
 
 In corresponding regarding any -df^^the properties 
 it will be sufficient to refer to the number of the property 
 on the list.
