Winslow, provincial horticulturist, returned to the city on Tuesday night from hia visit to the Mainland on departmental business. His tour included Vancou- I ver, New Westminster, Mission, Sal- , man Arm, Nakusp, Nelson, Creston, Grand Forks and Spokane, While it MiSBllon Mr. Winslow ad- dreBsed a meeting of the fruit and vegetable growers of the district cull- i il for the purpose of organizing under part 2 of the Agricultural Association Act to form a permanent cooperative marketing association. This meeting was well attended and it was decided to form an association under the name of the Fraser Valley Fruit Growers Limited. The growers of the Mission district shipped this yenr some eighteen carloads of rhubarb and eleven carloads of raspberries, besides even larger amounts of fruit and vegetables which were shipped hy express and freight. Express shipmeyits alone aggregated G40 tons this year, shipped in t">4 carloads. It will be readily seen thut permfa'nent organization was very necessary to the district in order to handle the increasing shipments successfully, and also to provide facilities for a pulping or jam factory as an additional outlet. Mr. Winslow inspected a number of the government demonstration orchards in the different districts which he visited, and also thc blight-control work hein'j carried ont in Grand Forks and the Kootenay country. He also addressed meetings of the Farmers' Institutes in Grand Forks and Creston, und consulted with the assistant horticulturist at Salmon Arm Mr. M. S. Middleton, in regard to their work, Mr. Winslow took part in tbe judging and conference at the Spokane apple show, where British Columbia entries were very successful.

GORDON Oity Cleric New rates of pay for British army officers, showing Increases of from ten to twenty-five per cent., are announced in an army order. The new daily rate for a captain Is ralBcd from U to S3.58 and for a lieutenant from 12 to 62.50. These Increases also are augmented by various special allowances. litre run from 47 cents up to 70 cents This means 'that the growers in the union at Penticton get from four to 22 cents per box for their apples. These same apples cost the public at the coast, or on the prairie, anywhere from on dollar up to twice that amount. Strongly Against it. The condemnation of the Central agency management was heartfelt and sincere, and it was loud, too. Mr. RobertBon, who gets $7,.">00 per year for managing the selling end of the business for the United Growers would have had an interesting time ol it had he been present. Modern Babylon in lime of War The explaining and persuasive powers of Manager R. Robertson of the Central Selling agency will be taxed to their limit to meet the angry objections which Penticton fruit growers have to his work during the past Beasan, says the Penticton Herald. The agency, which is the or.juniza- tion formed by the Okanagan United Growers for the purpose of disposing of itB fruit and produce, wasjstrong- ly indicted at a fruit growers' meeting held at Penticton on Monday afternoon, and the general opinion appeared to be that Manager Robertson and his high-priced staff at Vernon had failed lamentably. Thc members of the local union, which is affiliated with the United Growers, passed a resolution asking for governmental investigation ol the Central Agency. It also/adopted another resolution proposing a reconstruction of the Central Agency, in order either to eliminate the expensive management, or to do away with selling fruit through the brokera, as is done at the present time. These two resolutions will be placed before a meeting of the directors of the various local unions at Vernon today. On Tuesday a committee meet infc' of the central directors wns held in Kelowna, and yesterday it was followed by an executive session at Vernon. Want of Confidence Motion. A third resolution which thc local union directors were empowered to 1 ring up at today's meeting at Vernon .I tbey so desired, was to the effect that tbe Penticton union declare its entire want of confidence in the management of the Central Selling agency. There was no apparent feeling at the local meeting against the continued existence of local unions, thc united growers and a central selling organization, but the whole objection to present conditions appeared to lie in thc fact that although the Central agency costs approximately 1*10,000 per year ln BalarlcB, etc., it does nothing more than sell to the brokers, a deal which any ordinary clerk might enrry through just as well. Thc brokers ln turn Belt to tho wholesalers and -ttif. latter to the retailers. Then thc fruit gets to the consuming public. In the mennttmc It tins dropped of a lot of "pickings, ' until when the returns get back to the grower he finds nothing but bones. For example, orchardlsts who have sold .privately to consumers obtained M.Vi per box for applM. The price quoted to the Central agency by bro- War shows what is in a people. Critics of the French have called I Paris "the modern Babylon". They would bc surprised if they could see Paris now. It is a French provincial town, vastly larger than the others, more silent, more tranquil. In the streets peaceful pedestrians, of earnest, faces, go about their affairs. There iB no insolent luxury. You will not see a single one of those brilliant euui-1 pages which in certain other con-! tinental capitals of late have adver- j tiscd thc money burning of financiers • speculators and army furnishers. ! Everybody, rich or poor, takes the ' subway or tram car. One would seek in vain (or flashing show windows to tempt one with dia- I monds, pearls, laces, embroideries ] ami vain gewgaws. Even the shops I have adopted the simple life, offering goods of solid value, clothes, boots, blankets, foodstuffs, ah yes, food, food, food, in what profusion! Cafes Close at 8 The Paris population has become so sober that they close the cafes every night at - o'clock and the restaurants at 9.30, The most famous restaurants are simplicity itself, and the plain thi-'^s which they serve are just like those offered in the cheaper restaurants, only slightly dearer. At the cafe have a care not to demand an absinthe you would scandalize them, and the waiter would reply, reproachful, hurt' "We do not have that merchandise."'The extreme limit of debauch is a burnt wine or quinine * tonic. If former critics could see Babylon ! tbey would find neither gambling club nor betting agency, nor hear the invitation "Want a guide sir? Paris by night, sir?" round the great hotels. The racetracks are grazing grounds for the cattle of a thousand hills. The theatres and music halls are shut. Actresses and ballet girls are Red Cross nurses.

German people that for two months tbeir .nrmies have not advanced n foot .nearer Paris, that they nre in General Smith-Dorrien's words "up against a brick wall." The hint thrown out hy von Illume is likely to be followed by a "certain liveliness" on the part of the professors. They will begin to speak of the valor of the German armies, to lay emphasis upon not their successes, but their efforts, and hiially tn tell the people that the German armies have done more than the armies of any other country ever did, lint that even they c.uriot pcr- form the Impossible.

Two main caravan routes lea: across the peninsula'to Egypt from Turkish territory, the first from Hafah by El Arisli to Bl Kantara, 113 miles; the second by Altahi'ii through Nakhl to Suez, l."0 miles. From Hafah to Bl Arish the ground is sandy, and water is (ound only at Sheikh el Zauleh, twenty-two ni'ilcs (rom El Arish. This latter town is situated among palm groves.a mile and three-quarters from the beach, and it possesses numerous wells. From El Arish to Bir el Maza the distance is 32 miles and the going unusually souud. At "El Maza there is only one well, :S5 feet deep, and 0 feet of water. From Bir el Maza the distance is 31 miles over soft sandy desert to Bir el 'Abe, where there is a considerable supply o( water (rom wells. Katich is 17 miles further west and here there is a large well with G feet of water at a depth of 20 feet, while a good supply of drinkable water can be found by digging at a depth of 10 feet to 20 feet below the surface. From Katich to El Kantara 33 miles, the road traverses first a marshy plain, then a long reach of holdiug sand dunes, and finally IG miles of good hard desert. El Kantara is on the east bank of the Suez Canal, and is supplied by water from the fresh water canal by means of a pipe which passes under the Suez Canal. The worst part of this route is that between El Arish and Bir el Abd, 6^! miles, with a single well half way. The Sirbonian Bog. The section of the Mediterranean coast which flanks the road from El Arish to El Kantara is low and dangerous, offering few facilities for a disembarkation. At the head of the Bay of Pelusium, east of the Suez Canal, the live-fathom line is J miles fr.mi the beach.

Mountains like the Alps take second rank, and rivers the i bird. If there is so much difficulty In carrying the (ood o( an army that complete success is rarely obtained, ;his difficulty becomes twenty times greater when it is necessary to carry rater, forage, and fuel, three things which are weighty, difficult to curry, and usually found by armies upon ihe ground they occupy. Akaba and the Southern Road. Akaba, the Turkish position at the southern end of the Egyptian frontier, is situated amongst palm groves facing west, and has a very pleasant appearance after the barren rock country of Sinai. The village consists of a few mud huts built in Arab fashion, extremely dirty, and without ,.ny prominent house belonging to the Sheikh, such as is usually seen in Egyptian ezbehs; the population is composed of Bedoins who do nothing all day, but there is no attempt at any bazaar or shops. The fort looks on to the sea and is very powerfully built with thick walls fifty feet high. It. was constructed in the sixteenth century to protect the pilgrim route to Mecca, being tbe meeting point of the roads from Palestine, El Arisli, and Suez. The water supply is wonderful, (or within a few feet of the sea one can scratch a hole six inches deep and obtain good fresh water; these holes are dug daily for about a mile along the sea front and are used by camels and goats coming in from pasturage. The well of Tabah, which is in Egypt, is some seven miles from Akaba, and consists of u few date palms, but with no sign of habitation, lt lies on the road from En Nueibia, the Egyptian station 40 miles south and must be passed by anyone wishing to proceed to Akaba or to che pass leading up to the Tih plateau. The well itself is brackiBh, owing to mjglect and is never even used by the fisherman. But it is important as being the only water supply between En Nueibia and Akaba. The Pilgrim Route. The puss leading up from Akaba to the Tih plateau is very steep and difficult for a heavily-loaded camel; the road itself hus beeu well made and is in fairly good preservation, but the ascent of 2,mil feet takes at least four hours. As soon bb the top is reached the broad track of the pilgrim road is seen extending westward almost dead level and good going to within "JO miles of Suez. The ground is hard, with scarcely any surface sand, so that it would be possible to drive a motor-car Irom one end to the other with only (ew interruptions where the Wady cl 'Arish crosses thc road near Nakhl. The plateau is bounded on each side by a parallel line of low hills about six miles apart as far as Nakhl, and then becomes more open, stretching gradually towards the sea on the north. The main caravan route runs due West to Nakhl without touching any- well, but Bir-et-Themed only lies a few In mrs off the track and is generally reached alter two days' march from Akaba; this well is hard to find, as the track is much obliterated and the opening stands by itself without .my surrounding vegetation to indicate its presence. It is well built and was probably not used by the pilgrims as the supply is not sufficient for a in- caravan; in summer the well is dry. Nakhl, the capital of Sinai, Ib pro- mi!

As Parlow Plays THE tone of the Violin is exceptionally difficult to reproduce. Its richness and lusoiousness depend on over-tones, so soft, so delicate, so fleeting, that the ordinary "talking machine" can neither!record nor reproduce them.

All the richness (ullness, softness—all thc throbbing, lieart-appeuling tenderness—all the luscious tones and overtones—float from this amazing instrument just ns the great srtists achieve them on their priceless violins. The new Edison Phonograph has the diamond reproducing point, unbreakable and long playing records, superior motors and construction, concealed horns, and the Cabinets are made ia true Period styles, in perfect harmony with the finest furniture.

C. Declares C.P.R. Hotelman WORLD NEWS TERSELY TOLD Reginald McKenna, Home Secretary, stated in tbe house of commons last Friday that 130,000 cases of suspicious aliens bad been investigated by tbe police. Six thousand bouses bad been ransacked with the result that 312 persons had been interned. Witb regard to the suggei-i that all Germans and Austrians in this country should be interned, Mr. McKenna said that not all the English in Austria and Germany had e)ieen Interned and that if all tbe alien enemies in the L'nited Kingdom should be locked up a useless nnd gross injustice would be done. The Ottawa 'Evening Journal" is iesponsi|de for the statement that the government is preparing a drastic naval programme which it will submit to parliament at the coming session. The Journal reads: "What the proposals are it is impossible to ascertain at present and when Hon. J. ll. Hazen, Minister rmj tbe Nuval Service, was asked if there was anything in the reports that were being circulated, he replied that he wag not yet prepared to make any statement on the subject. "Those who know Mr. I l.i/."ii, however, are aware that he has given the most erne«t study to the qtlMtiOa and that undoubtedly he will propound a polio; that wM both bc in tbe Interests ol Canada and the I'.mpire." Forty armored motor cars of a standard of efficiency said to be se- i-eeinl tn none ln the world, were ,.r- dercd last week by the Domin'ion government. This order is made up of _'" cars comprised in tbe offer of J.C. Eaton, to ei|iip a motor machine gun battery and in addition twenty enrs to be paid for bv tbc government. The gun itself is mounted on a re lil- turret which is protected by l ■ 1 armor and is capable of withstanding rille tire at li'O yards. Inside the turret there is space for five men—tbe driver of the car, operator of the gun and three riflemen. In addition an extra gun is stored in thc car and can he quickly mounted on a tripod for field work. The f/un to be used will probably bc a quick firing type, with a capacity of 60 shots a minute. According to tbe Paris Eclair, a Cbenoble jewler, Anthoy Jacques, has invented an arrow bomb for destroying Zeppelins which is quite harmless when it strikes a bard surface, even with great force, although it can be set as a percussion bomb if ilesired. Experiments made at Grenoble, before ., party of investigators, including M. Morad, the local tire chief, showed that when the ar row-bomb struck a comparatively flimsy fabric, like the envelope of a dirigible, It promptly exploded, but when thrown violently against a steel plate it fell harmlessly to the groimd. The ln\cntor says these : bombs could bc cheaply and rnpidlv 'fabricated, nnd suggests that they might be thrown from aeroplanes. He i places his Invention afflji. disposal Ol the war department. Victoria—Hayter Heed, general superintendent of the C.P.R. hotel system, spent yesterday in the city a \ guest at the Empress. Mr. Reed is on : one of his periodical trips of inspec- tion throughout the west. He anticipates a great volume of travel to -JVcstern Canada after thc •war has closed, and looks for the advent of the invading tide of tourists next spring, concnrn ntly with tbc opening of the Panama Pacific ex- j position at San Fi an Cisco. He fully | concurs in the views recently express- ' ed by shrewd observers that for a ! considerable period after thc close of I in- war the great army of tourists in the Unlt-Jd States, who were wont to make trips to Europe, will turn their attention to Western America. Mr. Heed, while sanguine of steadily improving conditions in Canada, is sure that the area of land specula- lion has passed away, not to be revived for a good many years. In hi opinion, tbis will result in gren benefit to the country in thc long run, nnd the new and better siotua- tion will rapidly adjust ItstHf to the l.alfits and customs ol the people Without undue disturbance.
