The action on the pirt of the White Star Company, which is part ol lhe big steamship trust, constitutes what is practically the first move on the part ol the combine to partake ol the passenger tratlic on the 1 iverpool and St. Lawrence route The Baltic, which is only eclipsed in size by the Lusitsnia and Mauretania was the largest steamship in the world lor some years, the other White Star leviathans Celtic, Cedric and Adriatic, all falling below her actual tonnage. She is a comparatively slow boat, being built for carrying and comfort in preference to speed. The placing ol the monstrous passenger vessel on the Canadian service is a striking illustration ol the importance of tbe trade to the Dominion in tbe eyes of the great steamship lines.

Miller of Revelstoke, B C , died at Ihe home ol bis sister, Mrs. II. J. Bourne, at Sierra Madre, California, on Tuesday, April 14th. The deceased came to this city last October in hope ol regaining his lost health, but gradually declined ever since. Besides the alone named sister, he leaves a mother presently in the city, and a brother, William Miller, of British Columbia. Tlie funeral service took place in the Episcopal ohurch, Rev. C. E. Bentham officiating. The lector spoke very eloquently on' the text, "Behold, I Show You a Mystery." The choir was under the direction ol Mrs. Stevenson, and besides several hymns, the Mendelssohn funeral march was rendered very beautifully. After the service the Rev. Mr, Bentham accompanied the remains to San Qabriel, where they were intorred The death of Mr. Miller was one of peculiar sadness. He was io tbe prime ol bis years aud was blessed with a most everything except health which goes to make life worth living. He was a druggist by profession. His was an especially lovable character, attracting all with whom be came in contact. His devotion to sister and mother was particularly beautiful. An additional touch ol pathos was added by the fact that death called Mr Miller within a few hours after tbe family had moved into tbe new home, the„building of which had been of such interest to bim.—Sierra Madre News.

Kipling on B. C. In the current issue ol Collier's Weekly, Rudyard Kipling, continuing his " Letters to the Family," hss this to say of the situation in British Columbia : " Externally, British Columbia appears to be the richest and loveliest section of the continent. Over and above her own resources she has a lair ohance to secure an immense Asiatic trade, which she urgently desires. Hei land in many places over large areas, is peculiarly fitted for tbe small farmer and Iruit grower, who can send bis truck to the cities. On every hand 1 heard a demand for labor of all kinds. At tbe same time in no other part ol the oontinent did I meet so many men who insistently decried the value and possibilities of their oountry, or who dwelt more fluently on tbe hardships and privations to be endured hy the white immigrant. I believe that one or two gentlemen bave gone to England to explain the drawbacks viva voce. It is possible tbat they incur a great responsibility in the present and even a terrible one lor the future."

Berlin, May 1.—"Chairs ol journal* ism should Imi founded in the I'rtisian universities," declared Deputy Ruse- now, in the House ol Representatives in the Prussian Diet. "These chairs should bo filled by eminent members ol the journalistic profession who have leceived a university education, The time hss arrived when journalism should lie taught methodically. For the press ol today is ol the very highest importance; possibly the greatest in lluence in public and political life." In his speech, Hcrr Roionow quote I Emperor William, who said very lately tbat tbe editors ol great newspapers must be regarded as commanding generals, for they direct public opinion and make nations friends or provoke war between them. In view ol their tremendous power Herr Rosenow said, tho editors and journalists of today should secure a wider training than has beoti given them. ''It is uot enough that the journalist of todsy has the talent his profession demands, and cultivates this talent by practice," said the earnest deputy. "He should be scientifically educated; he should enlarge his faculties and develop his talent under the guidance of capable teachers."

The number of large United States corporations that either passed or reduced dividends since the first of the year is ten, and curiously enough, in Canada the number of corporations that have increased dividends is also ten, s.iys the Canada industrial. There have been a couple of reductions here also, but they are either offsprings of United States concerns or close affiliations of them. The purely Canadian institutions have held up under the stress of the money stringency in a manner that is, to say the least, remarkable. There has been, and there still is, a certain amount of dullness in certain lines of trade in thia country, but these are exceptional and the position of the country generally speaking is so strong that there cannot fail to be an early revival that will surpass all past lecords. Canada is the s'ifest country in the world to-day for the employment of capital, and the one in which the greatest returns are sure to be made in the future. The conservatism of the Canadian, ns compared with the gambling spirit of the average business man of the United States, is the thing that tells when the crisis comes. "'•re j,.-.

The pound k-.-j er is now on the alert for ali wayward animals, and will at once assume charge in the name of the citv of such stray stock that is making itself a nuisance and an inconvenience to the public, and the owners can have their properly again only on payment of the prescribed fine, which is little enough. Now that the board ol public works has com menced clearing up the streets, it behoves the public to follow their excellent example and do their part, and moreover to keep tbeir stock in their' own pastures and not impose lhe work of clearing up after them, upon the city finances, The council are doing all they can to make the city clean and the general public should do everything possible to assist. A visit Irom n stray cow or horse for a few minutes on a boulevard or garden, will do considerable barm and the public will not go to the expense of Iseautifying their premises only to be ruined the next minute. Even- citizen should assist the pound keeper fof tbe common good, and stock owners should take every means to keep it in bounds, and we must be permitted to say that cows are a decided nuisance and ought to be abolished—not the cows, but the nuisance. CAPITAL V. LABOR Tbe friction between capital and ibor still continues and without ;v -igns of abatement. Capital ii always been to the working i.jan what a red rag is to a bull, • I this very fact of habitual 1 trouble between the two that has i in a measure retarded commerce jand put a iar wider gulf between the master nnd the employee. Capital is not causing all tlie trouble to the laboring man. The; price of labor, the length of the j da; V work and closed Bhop questions are not all the difficulties witli which unions have to contend ! in carrying on a strike. A strike is a serious mattt i; it is expensive both to tbe laboring man and the: capitalist. It means a loss to the unions and to 'lie employer of lali.ir ami a strike Bhould never be declared unless there are grave causer for. ailing off the men * -1. i - ployed. It would be better to haw. made a mistake in not ordering i light between employer and employed than to have been mistaken on the otln-r side. Sometimes a strike and it? successful termination may make the life of a union; and again its failure or long continuation means the death of a union, It takes united action to make a strike of any magnitude Successful, and united action may call for sacrifice from many men. This is where unions must exercise great caution, for unless such strikes are ordered witb the best of reasons, dissertion is likely lo follow. The payment of a certain per cent, of one working man's wage lor the help oi his Htriking brother ■nay entail a certain hardship on the donor. To walk out in sympathy with another union mny mean rent overdue and grocery bills unpaid. When a laborer gives up his money he wants to leel that it is going to be used fur a good cause and he has tbe right to insist that he shall donate it for a just strike, that the trouble shall be one easily and honorably avoided. The working man in many cases brings trouble on his own head by unnecessary complaints which exasperate his employers und in the end can probably be found unfit to work alongside of another man who is proficient and steady. Tbis may lead to dissention which spreads throughout the union and results in the striking of the whole body, which may or may not be a failure.

HOW LONG SEEDS LIVE Items of Interest to Revelstoke Gardeners Now that our people are busy with their gardens and seed planting lhe followiug tuny be read with advantage! One of the most interesting things which conies within the observation of the gardner, whether amateur or profens-iiuial, is the length of time that seeds retain their vitality, We oflen when the seeds are not mce than 10 or 12 months old, It is often remarked that small •eeds have far more vittitty than large ones. In this way celery seeds often germinate when ll) or 12 years old, whereas com very seldom retains Its germinating power after two or three years. There is also the question ol latitude, to bo taken into consideration, Seeds whioh naturally germinate in a few weeks in one locality will take far l.ONU LAKE, OKANAGAN, B, C. see ths statement made that seeds retain their vitality. We often seo the statement made that seeds which are more that, one or two years old are ol no further use; and, in goit g over tho seed-box at planting time, seeds are often thrown away simply because they bear a dale which indicates thut they are perhaps too old for germination. This matter, however, is w rtli going into, and upon investigation it will otten be found that these very ee.ds which have been tlnown away are really of far more value than Bonie which have just been sent home from the seedsman. The amateur gardener who demands new seeds each year might well take a lesson Irom some expert who has devoted long study to this subject. This expert would be able to tell him many interesting things; for instance, that ho will get better results from cucumber seeds that are several yea-a old than if he plants some which are only a year old. The year-old seeds will give luxuriant vines but a small amount ol Iruit, whereas tbe older longer in some other part of the conn try, Every gardener has pr iliably experienced this when cm. p ring the cultural directions on bis-leils with actual results. Of course, the condition of the soil has something to do with this, and it is very seldom that one finds that ordinary seed will germinate as quiukly us promised, It is not only among vrgotable seeds but also among llower sen!-, that this exists. Some llower seed- will germinate after a very long p i io I, as for instance, the balsam, which his been known to sprout after a period of 10 years. Many other flower seeds, however, must be planted within a year, or they will be found to have very little vitality left. It sometimes happens thit an ex pert Bower grower will be able to produce unusually Hue blossoms simply by planting seed at an age which he has determined to be tbe right one to produce the best results. This is a matter largely dependent upon long study and observation, and it is to be sincerely hoped that the time will SHEEP FARMING IN BRITISH COLUMBIA. seeds will give a less luxuriant vine but will begin to fruit early and will bear a large crop. This early crop is a matter of considerable importance, especially to the niarket-giiiduer, who must depend almost wholly for his succeBS on getting his early vegetables upon the market ahead of his rival,-. If a man can save two or three weeks and secure just as good a crop, it i< greatly lo bis advantage to do so, and, if he is able lo do this without any trouble to himself except purchasing slightly old seeds, he will certainly be glad to have devoted some little time and study to the subject. It must be remembered, however, that what holds good for one kind of vegetable does not apply at all to some other kind. Some of the root vegetables, like parsnips, must be planted come when such observations cm be tabulated and published for the benefit of amateur gardners. Last summer, while knee-deop io branches trimmed from several dozen tomato vines, we made the vow that another year should Bee less pruning and more pinching. If those same branches, measuring an arm's length, had been nipped off when they were of a lingers length, the work would have occupied only a few minutes, instead of the hours required to uut, collect and clear away. A still better reason iu favor of the pinching iB that the growth and energy will go into the remaining vine and the fruit, instead ol going into the useless portion. One authority says: "All that growB and iB cut oil' is just, so much impoverishment, ol tlie soil and uiijustiliiible waste, if it could have been checked A SCENE IN REVELSTOKE IN THE EARLY DAYS. by summer pruning nr pinching." We have found Biivernl vegetables responsive to lhe pinching treatment; polo bean-, cucunib r npia-h and pjppers, us well us torn itoos. To keep pole lieiins within reach, it is well to raisu them on a six-lout trellis aid to clip the vines just us they reach the top. . This treatment gives strong, productive vines mid a neat, even. looking trelsis. If they are not trimmed till they aro a yard or moro too long, there will be a waste of the vines' vitnlitv, as in the case of the tomatoes, and, boiides, the overhang ing ends will shade and smother Ihe lower pinion, of the vines. Finn Bproinioiis ol peppers are procured by liitii'lii guff lie lips of the branches w ion the fruit b gins to ripen, Kur in ordinary crop this is not necessary. Fur goiieiiil u o there is not much gained in pruning eggplants, but to hasten btmring before frost, it ia null to pinch off .ill blosiOIUS and new siioots about t.h'1-c weeks ahead of the time frost is due, This leaves the fuli energy ul the plant lu perleot the Iruit t nit. bus already readied a reasonable -ix . Culling is holier limn bit-aking as the slims are tough. Toiiiiilnos me pinched tu re-triet the growth to one or two slums when "fancy" specimens are dosiied. To do this all brunches below the lirst cluster of blossoms are removed, also all that start out from the two main branches, leaving the lirst cluster ul blossoms on each side branch to ripen fruit. If a more abundant crop of lesa choice specimetiB will satisfy, trimming may be le s severe, Leaving toni ito plants to lie on the ground is not so satisfactory a method as to train tbem to sonic sort of a ruck or trellis, but if the former is preferred the plants must be severely trimmed, while they are biuiiI', to discourage a tendency to too much vine. A most useful tool for "pinching" is au old pair of scissors carried in the pocket of the garden apron, or fastened about the waist. If this is always handy, many superfluous branches can be snipped off daily during the tour of the garden, that would otherwise be left till it was convenient to go to the tool-house for the clippers. The scissors can perform another service; the cutting off of all faded flowers before they have a chance to ripen seed, aud thus prolong the blooming season. Two hints on pruning, useful for tbe amateur's note-book are, early ll.iwer ing shrubs generally develop tbeir flower-buds the previous year, so tbat severe pruning during the dormant stage is likely to damage the bloom. It iB better to prune in the spring or early summer, as soon ss the flowering season bas passed. Late-blooming shrub) form flower buds early in the same season, so tbey can be thoroughly pruned while dormant to make tbem send up a quantity of flower- bearing shoots. 5,000 Facts About Canada The 1908 edition is out of that most useful and valuable booklet, 5,0110 Facts About Canada," compiled by Frank Yeigh, of Toronto, who is widely known throughout the I) tni'sion as an authority on things Canadian. Nearly 25,000 copies were sold ol the 1907 edition, the demand coming from every part of this Continent and the British Empire. The idea worked out, that of a concrete fact in a sen tence, is an excellent one, the data being arranged under such self-indexing titles as area, agriculture, banking commerce, finances, mining, railways, wheat fields, etc. The wealth of material contained in small space is a revelation to even a well informed Canadian of the standing and resources of the country. The book is published at 25 cents a copy by The Camdian Facts Publishing Co., 637 Spadiua avenue, Toronto, Canada, or may be had from Newsdealers.

The syndicate owning the group are greatly elated over tbe claim as it improves every foot tbat is driven; starting with a seam of a little over six inches and enlarging to its present dimensions in 90 feet indicates an immense body of valuable ore and tbe owners have reason to be jubilant. B. C. FRUIT Canneries to be Established in Okanagan Valley. Tho erection of fruit canneries at Vernon and Kelnwna is contemplated by MoBsrs. McKillop A Co., of Van cnuver, and arrangements sre now under way for thu establishment of this new enterprise wbioh will prevent to a large extent the great waste of fruit thai has been absolutely nccee sary during the past years through the luck of preserving methods. A joint stock company is being formed with simple capital nnd as soon is arrangements with the Vernon council can be satisfactorily arranged tlio building of a cannery al that point mid another nt Kclowua will proceed. McKillop & Co., have been offer.d a free siie, with free water Slid exemption froin taxation for ten years at Kel 'una, and it is understood that the ciiiiueil of Vermin are intending to III iku a similar nffri. Already volute ttiry promises of heavy pltrchasis ol th i .took of the ooiupriuy have la en giveit Isy residents in and around Vernon und Ki In\vnu, and all through the Okanagan Valley, (or the new industry is I oked Upllll, Hot only as a boon, but uu absolute necessity, there being at, the present time no fruit cannery in British Columbia. Kach fall tous of fruit are available and the big production haa practically placed the grower at the mercy of the wholesaler. The operations of a couple of canneries in the Okanagan will mitigate this waste aud will open up a market for British Columbia Iruit at all seasons ol the year. Tbe bulk of the Iruit will be preserved in glass jars. A factory will be built, and as much of the material used in the operations of canneries, such as box, s, etc., will be made on the ground, The pay-roll will he a big one, and the i nit farmers of the Okanagan are looking forward with much interest to the completion ol the canneries.

Sir : I would like to eall Ibe attention ol parents of the city and surrounding school district to the necessity of more regular attendance on the part of many of the pupils of tbe Public Schools, In spite ol the fact that the School Act distinctly states tbat every child from the age of seven to fourteen, inclusive, "shall attend school during tlie regular school hours of every selcsol day. there is a tendency in some homes to deta n children from sell,ml frequently as a matter of con- venieupe to the parents, and in a few cases children are irregular simply of patetifa! indiflVrence. There ia impression, ton, in some quarters that if a year is lost, by irregular attendance in the lower divisions of the school, it does not make very much difference as the child is young and can easily make up the time later ll has Iseen forgotten in Biich cases that it is ail tlie pupil of average ability can do to cover our present Public School course in the seven years prescribed, ■nd that it requires an exceptionally hrilliint pupil to make a gain of even one term in the whole course. Thus :t will le seen .hat a year Imi when tbe pupil is eight or nine yesrs of age, when time does not seem of much importance, means a year bait when the pupil is fourteen or fifteen, when time if beginning to lie considered of much greater value. Then, loo, the absence of even one pupil in a class for a short time retards the other pupils in the class to a certain extent, as when tha absent one returns the whole ehss has to g- mom slowly until the lost work ban been covered. There sre so many enforced setsbank caused by sickness, epidemics, etc., that, to say the least, it seems unwise to allow the ohildren to remain away from school when such absence is not an absolute necessity. Thanking you lor tbo space. Yours sincerely, A. K Miller. School Attendance. The attendance at the public schools lor April was as follows: * a _.l A & ft Public School—Div.
