Each of these settlers now has his own home, which, however, together 

 with the chattels and equipment purchased from the funds set aside, remains 

 in the Crown, with the settler as trustee until such time as he obtains patent, 

 when it becomes his absolute property. Some settlers have as high as 25 

 acres under cultivation, and the average is approximately 4 acres. 



The stock in possession of these settlers consists of the following:

 items and the result is that considerably more than would be represented by 

 the maximum of $600.00, which is set aside for each Relief Land Settler's 

 family, has actually been supplied to each and every one whose time has 

 expired. The earnings from road work and other sources must be remembered.
