Indian Affairs was included under the banner of the Department of Mines and Resources in 1939, and the reports on various Indian agencies were included in the Department of Mines and Resources Annual Reports. Little specific information about individual communities exists in these reports, but the general info does hint at broader themes in the province. This specific report discusses different occupations and agriculture, and also the types of housing on reserves.
