TIMBER ESTIMATES. 



As has been previously stated, the Department is making 

 a forest survey of the reserves which should give a close estimate 

 of the timber thereon. Such estimate has been made for the 

 Riding Mountain Turtle Mountain, Moose Mountain and the 

 Pines reserves, and for these the following figures are probably 

 close to the actual quantities on those reserves. For all other 

 reserves the estimates are only tentative:
