The New Hazelton boom has been launched and

town and in the mining and agricultural resour-

ever and hundreds: of nen: ‘working ‘where’ ‘only
scores worked before. | |

But mining is-not:the only: possibility. There
is: s evervthing i in the. New Hazeltow district to en-
courage manufacturing - of ‘many. kinds. Water
Coal,
coking and steam, within: easy reach of the rail-
way, and only a few miles from town. Lots of |
water, excellent drainage. - We are close to the

- seaboard, and close to the prairie markets. New

Hazelton could be a large manufacturing centre.
- The agricultural possibilities have as yet been
‘but slightly encouraged. = It has, however, been.
demonstrated that small fruits of all kinds will
grow to perfection. Scores of people have made
@ great success of their own small gardens. The
soil and climate appear to be particularly well a-
dapted. to small fruits and also to vegetables of
all kinds. The district immediately around New
Hazelton will, and has, produced vegetables that
will equal anything produced in the world. The
agricultural area, however, is not particularly
large, and the chances of over loading the local
market are exceptionally small. In’ fact,
doubtful if the agriculttural lands will be devel-
oped fast enough: to keep up with the local con-
sumption. Sure it is that there will be very little

that will have to compete on outside markets.

The home market, with the big prices and profits,

will take all that ean be produced for many years|}

tocome. New Hazelton is the one bright spot

From a mining standpoint, New Hazelton occu-| ~~ Te

pies a unique position. The town is surrounded
by mineral properties, both high grade and low
grade, copper, silver, lead and zine. To the south
is the great. Rocher de Boule mountain, upon
which many thousands of dollars have already
been spent, and upon which there is now the
Rocher de Boule mine with over a million dollars
worth of ore blocked out or on the dumps.. The
most remarkable feature of this mountain is that
the veins which are being operated on Rocher de
Boule mine are very prominent on the surface,
and -have been traced for at least three miles.
Besides these there are many other smaller veins
about which there is not so much known. There
_are scores of claims staked, and ihe owners are
ready to ‘begin operations on’a much larger scale
this year than ever before. Many of these claims
are on the New. Hazelton side of the mountain,
and one group is not over seven hundred feet
from: New Hazelton Heighta.
tributary to New Hazelton, and most of them will

ship from the depot here.
On the north and across the Bulkley river

a
are Glen mountain, Four mile and Nine mile

mountains, all rich in silver and lead. The Silver

Standard, Surprise, Silver Cup, Sunrise, Lead BD

King, American Boy and the Erie are -all well
known to Herald readers, To the east are the
- Babines,. Bear river, Hudson Bay mountain, and
. Copper-river coal.- To the west are the Seven
Sisters range and many others, These are only

the mineral bearing hills: in the immediate. New.
