GERMANS FAIL IN ADVA ALLIES ADVANCE A LITTLE ON FRENCH SIDE Allies On French Lines Proved Too Much For Germans Paris, Jan. 20.—Last evening the enemy gained a footing in one of our trenches north of Notre Dame Delorette. This morning they were driven from It by a counter-attack. In their retreat they left in our hands more than one hundred prisoners. In the region of Albert an attack south of Tbiehval which had progressed as far as our wire entanglements was thrown back. Three successive attacks on Labolsselke met the same fate. In Argonne Ihe enemy was repulsed after a hand-to-hand struggle.

The Canadian regiment at tlie front distinguished itself a few days ago in a stirring bayonet charge at the place near Ypres known as Dead- man's Valley, according to the London Dally Chronicle's correspondent in Northeast France. "The Germans," the correspondent says, "had moved I a great mass of men against this spot on the British front. Mud helped the thin British line to hold, but the honors were barely even until the Canadian regiment hurried up from the rear. "Suddenly there was heard a roar of' voices, ancl a long line of slouch- hatted men with fixed bayonets rushed forward with the battle cry, 'For Canada and Old England!' fore it. Trench after trench fell, and the Canadians did not cease until the Germans brought mi their artillery. - Tbe ground gained extended over a mile in front." H. S. Clements, M.P., Is Expected «In Western Galicia H. S. Clements, M.P., expects to arrive here on Sunday evening by the steamer Venture; He will remain over until Wednesday morning, when he leaves for Ottawa by the G.T.P. to attend the session of Parliament which opens on February 4. Advantage will be taken of his visit to Prince Rupert to go into the subject of the fishing situation here. &a&awwom#o&a&^^ THE IMPORTATION OF •» AIGRETTES PROHIBITED New Amendment to Tariff Forbids Importation of Feathers nfnd Plumes.

This is a most interesting subject to citizens of Prince Rupert and Northern British Columbia. The cry of "back to.the land" has been beard for some time, but there has been no incentive, except In minor rases, to create a real desire In the majority of present day people for working o» the land themselves. Willi the prevailing crises there is not only an incentive but people are obliged to consider the question of following in the footsteps of our forefathers and so take up land ancl Farm. The cost of living has been and is far too high. One of the chief causes In Canada being the fact that development along agricultural lines. In the Nortli we have the most extensive agricultural areas In British Columbia, containing some of the most productive soils.

A warning Is issued in tho Berliner Klinisihe Wochenschlft ngain.'l the wearing of wrist watches by German soldiers in the field. Tiie author of the article, Dr. Melcbior, relates that in treating eases of wounded soldiers be found many who had suffered horrible wounds as a result of this, their wrist watches having been Btruck by bits of shrapnel, which thereupon caused a great spreading wound and Imbedded parts of the watch in the wrist. The danger Is the greater, he adds, because the watches are usually worn on the left wrist, and it is the left band and arm that, as a rule, are wounded, rather than tbe right.

RICH AGRICULTURAL AREAS (Continued from age One.; iness may be successfully carried on here under right management; good opportunities are offered. Further east to Hazelton mixed farming should be practised, with a leaning towards fodder, grain, etc., as well as fruits on the slopes. The fact must not be overlooked that for the Skeena District, livestock must be given a place. As yet only small numbers can be provided for, but as time goes on the farmer must increase his stock in proportion to the land under cultivation and this will enhance the fertility of the soil. Some splendid timber exists, ln parts of the Skeena valleys which it will not be wise to ruthlessly burn because as mines, etc., open up, such timber will be needed. Eastern Canada and the United States have learned a lesson that it will be wise to conserve the best timber. Of course, British Columbia Is doing likewise. Climatic Conditions. The climate nearer the coast is equable, towards the interior more cold is experienced. At Terrace about 9 degrees below was recorded last year, and about 85 in the shade. The precipitation is estimated at 45 Inches. Towards Hazelton more extremes of temperature are found, but loss rainfall. Bulkley Valley. The Bulkley Valley is about 130 miles long, stretching from Hazelton to Decker Lake, and is from one- half mile to ten miles wide. It possesses about 120,000 acres of agricultural land. Here a more open country is found ancl the clearing is light, costing from $30 to $00 per lore with soil that is loam and clay with a subsoil of sand ancl clay. Various grains, fodder crops, vegetables and bush fruits may be sucessfitlly raise,] and hardy fruits with the necessary treatment. Livestock will form the i ili f branch of agriculture for this dlt trlct, with dairying as a "iliy.

The McBrlde, Willow River and Yellowbead Pass districts are being settled and the timber limits are now about to expire. Salmon River Plains, north of Prince George, are also important. liella Coola. Bella Coola is about 2nd miles from Prince Rupert. The valley prop, er is 50 miles in length and one to three miles wide, and is most productive. This is an old settled valley Scandinavian people, and now other settlers are coming in from different parts. There is some heavy timber growth and the clearing costs from $50 to $350. Nearly all of the' hardy varieties of grain, roots, fruits, vegetables, etc., are being raised here. Livestock thrive well. The Naas. Aiyansh, the main point of the Naas, is about 120 miles from Prince Rupert. The valley runs almost parallel with the Skeena and is about 00 to 100 miles north of it. On either side of the river narrow lowlands of rich river silt soil exist, with light clearing and draining and dyking in some places may be needed. Fodder crops, vegetables, etc., may be raised. As one proceeds east and north the valley opens out ancl contains much very rich open land. Above Aiyansh the valley is undulating and is flatter and lower than the Skeena. The I higher lands will produce tree fruits, etc. Graham Island. .Massett, the chief port, is 80 miles from Prince Rupert. A mild climate prevails with a precipitation of 00 inches. On the cpast fruits, vegetables, etc., may be raised, and in the interior sections where open land and muskeg formations exist, after treatment dairying may be prosecuted. Some herds of wild cattle in the north graze all the year round. Porcher Island is 75 miles in circumference. The main point of call, Refuge Bay, is 2.1 miles away from Prince Rupert. Somewhat similar conditions to Graham Island prevail. Nearer the coast poultry, small fruits, vegetables, etc., should be gone in for. From the coast In moss or muskeg lands predominate, which requires special treatment but may he made productive grass lands. Smith and other islands, as well as the mainland near the coast, have somewhat heavy timber. Tlie soil, decayed, vegetation and muskeg in parts, offers chances for mixed fanning. Being near Prince Rupert, specializing in regi tables would be recommended, Atlin, farther nortli, offers oppor tunitie foi i griculture In the matter of vegi tables. Transportation fa- ■ as had in the past been a gr< al draw back. i Ills would li tproi e, however. Markets. Prince Rupi rt naturally It the main . dng as well as receii Ing point. There will spring up markets all along the line, especially as mm-, in", etc., develops, but the main niarket for points west, especlall the Skeena District, and the Island; Bella Coola, ind Ihe Naas, will be Prince Rupert. Local merchants have been and are anxious to do business and reciprocate trade with fanners and set- I!,,,..- 'p1.,. ,.., i ■ ., . ■ | ;.. .. posl tion to procure markets for northern ;,rof1u?9 which the individual fanner cannot. Tl ' , city with co-operative growing and selling, should also encourage farmers and settlers to cater to the local trade. At these places, for instance the Skeena District, large and small fruits, vegetables, hay, meat, butter eggs and poultry may be raised ancl sent here, the same applying to Bella Coola. The Islands raising small fruits, vegetables, poultry etc. Local .Markets. As tbe .Naas Valley develops local canneries, etc., will take the produce. Eventually a further market at Prince Rupert will be.found. Tlie Bulkley and adjoining districts will also ship certain produce to this market, fodder and dairy products particularly. The Interior. The country nearer and in the vicinity of Prince George will look to the mines and Prince George as a market principally. The G.T.P. Railway dining car service will call for produce of uniformity and quality. Such may be raised. It. is a matter for the most enterprising districts to secure tills trade. Crops Already (ironing'. At our local and other fairs we have seen large and small fruits, roots, vegetables, grain, corn, etc., from the Kitsumkalum and Lakelse; grains and roots from the Bulkley; vegetables, small fruits and roots from the Islands, and fruits, vegetables, roots, grain and corn from Bella Coola. These various crops have been raised by farmers as well as on the Government Experimental plots, thus showing that this northern country already can grow all agricultural produce necessary for its people and stock. The time will come when not many articles of produce need be shipped In from the south. , Season. i The growing season in the north is somewhat shorter than 'in the soutli, but this is counteracted somewhat by the length of the clays and thus we have quicker-growth. Summer Frosts. These occur in parts of the interior but such take place in low-lying sections. The high lands are free. As the country becomes more opened up and the land becomes cultivated and drained summer frosts will cease. Irrigation. This, although not essential In many parts except on the higher lands, is a thing not to be lost sight of. In the dryer sections where water can be procured a farmer may almost guarantee his crop by irrigating. Government Experimental Plots. These have been established for demonstration as well as experimental purposes, throughout the northern district. Thus placing the Department In a position to give to farmers and settlers reliable information oil the spot. Mr. Chairman, a few moments with such a topic as this one Is unable to go into details, but can readily see, Sir, Hie vast extent of land. the great possibilities In tbe North. How soon the country will become more thickly populated is difficult to predict, bul it should not. be long. The country needs workers consisting of communities of families. To such success will come. Prince Rupert as a city must do her part, the people' on the land must no theirs, tlie transportation companies have theirs, and the Government its part. Obstacles are become us in Hie development of the country as in each individual business. These can and must be overcome by all of us doing our share of work and being optimistic In encouraging our present and new neighbors to realize that before us lies a rich provision that will yield many fold according to the labor and enterprise we'extend.

"Tbe peoiile of the British Empire have learnt much during the last three months and will learn more still, before the war is over, as lo tbe true source of their strength," says the Round Table. "Command of tbe sea, now, as always, stands between tlie Empire and destruction. Command of the sea is all that separates victory from disaster. So long as the British navy commands the sea, the British Empire cannot be defeated. If it loses command of the sea the Empire cannot win. All discussion of financial, economic, or other war problems must finally come down to that, simple elementary truth; and It would be well were it burnt into the mind of every subject of the King throughout the world. How Britain Won. "This country has won her great struggles mainly by defeating her enemies' fleets, and partly by tbe incidental method of destroying their commerce. After more than one nun. dred years, her supremacy at sea is again challenged, and, altered in many respects as the problem is, its grand outlines are still the same. England has, it is true, in times of peace wisely or unwisely, abandoned some weapons of sea power that she formerly wielded with effect. She cannot, since the Declaration of Paris, touch non-contraband goods consigned to the country of her enemies, when carried in a neutral ship; nor can she do anything to interfere with enemy exports carried in neutral ships. 'Moderation in war,' as Lord Fisher says, 'is an imbecility,1 and we may deplore now this diminution of our powers, since, so far as trade is concerned, if renders the power of our navy more defensive than offensive. Yet. it does not nffect our sea supremacy. Nothing will affect, that but the defeat of the fleet itself. Everything Lost. "If such defeat were ever to come, then Great Britain and all her dominions would lose everything; empire, possessions, shipping ancl commerce. The colonies would be taken, their coaling stations seized, their ships sunk and their commerce de stroyed; all that would be an easy task for a victorious fleet. Neither conventions nor declarations, neither Hague tribunals nor laws of nations would prevent our foes from employing every weapon to their hand for our destruction. "Fortunately, we have good faith that the British fleet is more than equal to the task before It, and for this let us be thankful that we do not listen tn those misguided doctrinaires, who, with their capacity to look facts in the face and distinguish the real from the unreal, urged In season and out of season to weaki our fleet, and fatally to reduce even that small margin of Insurance on which not u low paltry millions but our whole life and nationhood depend. Let us also throughout th< Empire mark and learn the lessons that this war will teach us. While every part of the Empire is equally and vitally concerned In the command- of the sea, yet the very breath of the Empire's flee! is. unity, One Fleet Essential. "If the Grand Fleet itse'f is defeated small, weak and distant squadrons must either uselessly keep their harbors or be sent lo the bottom. The shores and commerce of the dominions as well as of the British Islands will then be open to the attack of the victorious enemy. The whole Empire is, therefore, equally concerned in tlie navy's strength; and it is vital to every part that in this and in every war there shall be present on the day of decision, and at the decisive point, an irresistible nnd united fleet."

Tbe Monopoly That Has Hitherto Existed in This Metal May De Broken. With Great Britain at, war witli Germany and having in mind the importance of securing regular supplies of copper, the situation at the present time is full of Interest. Owing to the steps taken by the authorities in dealing with copper cargoes which it is believed may be intended for the enemy the situation created by the war has, it is hoped, been handled in such a way as to protect our Interests. Something more than this, however, is necessary. Greal Britain must, take full advantage ot the trade paralysis of Germany to secure that position in Ihe copper industry which her great interests demand, but which up to the present time she has utterly failed to secure, says a writer in the Montreal Mall. The scarcity of farm labor in North and West Yorkshire, says ;i London despatch, is now most serious and the education authorities are being petitioned to free tbe lads from school in order to assist the farmers. Members of the Govsrn- ment are getting anxious over the rising prices of foodstuff, partly due to the shortage of labor at the docks. Belgian refugees would be glad, it is said, to earn money both at. the docks and on the farms, but the trades unions would be instantly up in arms against any such proposal. The Government would almost certainly decline to support such a method of getting over the present difficulty. A suggestion with regard to the wheat shortage here is made that the Canadian Government should prohibit the exportation of wheat to any country except Great Britain or the Allies, .and that the whole of Canada's surplus should be purchased at, a fixed price, shipped here and sold again on conditions that an agreed price should he charged the consumer.

Prince Rnnort, B.O jJittHKHWflaooiKiooiJu-aoaftw^ At the prestnt time the copper trade of the world is largely in the hands of a syndicate in which German and American influence is paramount. The copper refining industry is quite distinct from the copper selling industry, but Germany lias great, advantages in this field owing to the control it has over the raw copper market. We have Important copper refineries in the British Dominions; one of the largest in the world outside of the United States is In Australia, but it has been a settled policy of the big German and American interests to obtain n controlling interest in these refineries and whenever possible to close them down, and thus strengthen the monopoly in the copper trade which north our chief Industrial rivals have through long years been trying to create. It is now felt, that, the present offers an opportunity which will probably not recur |f breaking down the copper monopoly. The strangle hold we have taken on Gorman trade, no less than the course of the war, has left the industrial leaders in Germany no chance of pursuing their traditipnal policy. It is perfectly certain during the Industrial paralysis In Germany the strongest efforts will be made by the United Slates to strengthen the hold they already possess on the copper trade. It is also the opportunity of Great Britain to step In and seize the position hitherto held by Germany. What precise step:; should be taken and what: part in the none mcnt can bo played by legislation are mutters for consideration, but all those acquainted with the position are emphatic thai something should bo done to secure a greater share of this trade for ourselves. Germany is commonly believed to hold an'advantage through the existence within the empire of large deposits of the clays suitable for lire bricks, which will withstand temperatures up to 2,iioii deir.

More than sixty years ago when Alaska was under Russian dominance and Sitka was the traliic headquarters of the Russian companies dealing in furs and other valuable products, the Russian gunboat Neva struck a rock off Cape Edgecombe, near the entrance to Sitka harbor, and went to the bottom. It was one of the early wrecks in Alaska's waters, although not by any means the first, Bering's ship having been wrecked in its first attempt to explore the country, and others having occurred between then and the time when the Neva went down. Now comes C. F. Stagger, a deep sea diver, who has made application to the United States government for a permit to salve the gold from the ill-fated gunboat, which is supposed to bo lying at the bottom of the sea at this point. Last summer, while Stagger was at Sitka, engaged in salving the fishing schooner Montana, which caught lire and wss beached on Baranof island, lie was informed of the wrecked Russian gunboat Neva, by Rev. Father George Kostronietiiioff, the resident Russo-Greek priest at Sitka, who, during the early summer, visited Cape Edgecombe, and while in that, vicinity in a small boat, sighted tbe sunken cratt resting on the bottom at a depth between ten and twelve fathoms. According to the statement made by Father Kostrometinoff, more than sixty years ago, when Alaska was under Russian rule, the Russian gunboat Neva was sent to Sitka with nearly a quarter of a million dollars in gold, to pay the Russian' officers, soldiers and bluejackets stationed a"t that place. When she was nearing the entrance to the harbor a dense' fog settled down and the Neva lost her course, striking a reef off Cape Edgecombe. So rapidly did the vessel go down that, the crew barely bad time to escape in the small hoats and after several days succeeded in reaching Sitka. Unsuccessful efforts were made to recover the gold, but in those days facilities for such work were limited and further efforts were abandoned. The gold was carried on tbe main deck of the vessel in a great iron chest, which was the usual \vay of transporting bullion in war vessels in those days. THE IMPORTATION.

"If you seek the truth—and I do not want to give offence—then, in the opinion of tlie German people, you English are rotten, through and through. You are sunk in sordid sloth and sensuality. Nous sommes des guerriers," lie proceeded, striking his breast, "and we mean to take from you at the first opportunity the empire which is ours by right." It. was likely, Earl Grey remarked that that idea of the British nation bad undergone some change. It rested with us to raise up a new nation and a new Belgium—(cheers) — and a new world on principles and ideals which would bring ever-increasing prosperity and nobility to the peoples of the world. o PRINCE RUPERT.
