British Columbia Magazine, Vol. 8: May, 1912 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from British Columbia Magazine, Vol. 8: May, 1912 Editor's note. - The resources of British Columbia are unrivalled in Australia or any other portion of the Empire, and this article does not aim at giving the palm to the Common wealth as the haven for any foot-loose pioneer, British or otherwise, in preference to our own province. It does aim, however, at planting some seeds of thought in our minds as to improving our own methods for placing good, solid citizens on our own soil. If any of our readers writes us down as tiresome in the matter of reiterating the fact that the source of all our wealth, present and future, is the land, he can find cold comfort in the fact that when he and we have passed on, the best friends of British Columbia will still be preaching the same old gospel from the same old text.
