connection there with the Great North
ern and Northern Pacific systems.
Chilliwack, already progressing with
uneXampled strides, awaits impatiently
the advent of these electric and steam
railroads, on the completion of the
Sumas dyke, in the confidence that the
Chilliwack Valley will then be the
Mecca of land seekers from all parts
until the last available acre is taken up.
Delta already feels the impetus of
the opening of a new section through
the construction of the Great Northern
short line from New Westminster to

items in the record of development of
the district now progressing.

BRITISH COLUMBIA PROGRESS.

When the Western movement became
more general and matter of cool cal
culation rather than of headlong rush,
New Westminster was found to offer
inducements sufficient to draw to this
district the most substantial class of
the new arrivals in the province, and
the demand for readily available lands
in the Fraser Valley became very gen
eral indeed, says the British Column
bian. There has been brisk settlement
in every part-the neighboring munich
palities of Burnaby, Surrey and Co.
quitlam leading in the subdivision of
the large farms into orchards and poul-
try yards of small acreage, but giving
highly profitable employment to a large
population of the best class of settlers.
These municipalities are so close to
town that New Westminster reaps the
lions share of the advantage from their
trade; but our natural advantage as
a market and trading depot has caused
us to profit to very large extent also
from the movement into the grain fields
of Pitt Meadows, the orchards and gar
dens of Maple Ridge and Mission, the
pastures of Kent, Nicomen and Dewd-
ney; the grain fields, pastures, or
chards, gardens and general farms of
Richmond, Delta, Langley and Chilli
wack.
Matsqui too, has shown phenomenal
development, and is about to be the
- ~ 1o;n fIof &c
bound to bring the district prominently
before the attention Of not only resi-
dents but also visitors to all the cities
of the coast. In every part of the
Fraser Valley new farms have been
cleared and cultivated, and old farms
have increased in value and in the ex-
tent and variety of the operations car
ried on.
Side by side with the progress of
agriculture, there is development of
allied industry. Mills have sprung up
as if by magic in all directions to sup
ply the demand for lumber for local
building, or to take advantage of the
new outlets afforded by the railway
construction that has been so brisk.
The electric railway has been pushed
from New Westminster through Sur
rey, Langley and Matsqui to Abbots-
ford, where it halts at the gateway to
Sumas awaiting the completion of the
great project now well under way for
retaining thirty thousand acres Of as
fine land as could be desired. The same
districts are about to be served by the
section of the ", V. &, S. railway now
completed to Abbotsford and giving

Real estate values in British Column
bia, particularly on properties through
out the agricultural communities, are
climbing steadily. No indication of a
frenzied boom has been noticed, nor
is such indication expected or desired,
but reports from all directions confirm
the opinion generally expressed that
British Columbia rural properties have
only started their upward journey in
the realty market.
AS a case in point may be quoted
one instance with which the Royal
City Realty Company, of New West
minister, had to do. A few months ago
this progressive and successful firm
advertised for sale fifteen acres of land
seven miles from New Westminster
with which went house, barn. fifty fruit
trees, horses, COWS, swine and gen.
eral outfit of farm implements and
machinery. The price was $4,000. A
sale was made and exactly three
months later the Royal City Realty
Company turned it over for its new
owner at $4,500-an advance of $1,000
in three months on $4,000 investment.
