FRIDAY, AUG. ,,1920 13 "���������rt^f^^Siuo $1.00 per Year. There is no bettor adverli'so'iuunl than to lie a prize winner at the Kail Fairs {ind no crop .on the '1'a'nn. can be exhibited to better advantage than (.he cereal crop. To attain' the best results a'sp'ccial plot should'bo maintained and kept, 'thoroughly clean, free- from weeds and all impurities. Harvesting should be done by hand, keeping the sheaves as neat and as straight, as possible. Kirsl and foremost the grain iri tho shoal' must not be weathered,'it must. be perfectly dry and of good.color The best results are obtained by I he use of slightly immature straw, as it. will be found to he less brittle and easier to handle. The straw should be spread in layers in the sun to dry; the sun will bleach the straw as .well as dry it. Use- only straight, uniform straws to malce (he sheaf; two or- throe sheaves should be collected in the field to allow for waste.' The majority of persons have the idea that all the straws should bo the same length and the heads all placed on the same level. This would dive us the square head in which, whan tied, the majority of the si raws- would break off below the bead. The ideal sheaf has a rounded head with a gradual curve. This rounded head is procured by allowing the central straws to stand a little higher than the surrounding straws and each layer of heads that arc added, to gradually slope away from the centre. The large sheaf may be conveniently form ed by li'rst making a number.of.small .-sheaves and then placing them together as though they were indivdual heads, gradually sloping them off in the same manner. To finish the sheaf a laver of indiviual heads should be placed around the whole producing a finished exhibitionsheaf. All the loose leaves should be plucked off the outside of the sheaf with a jack- knife leaving only the white shining straws,' and all heads that do not conform to the symmetry of the head may be cut off, leaving a perfect sheaf Colored ribbon about 1-2 to 3-4 inches wide may be used with good effect to cover the binding strings. The remainder of the plot should be threshed by hand. ' This will form the bulk sample for the Fair. If the plot was kept pure in the field there will be very little that will'need to be done to the threshed sample. A good fanning mill will remove all the shrunken and small kernels, all chaff and dirt. The fanning mill must be clean, many an excellent sample has been ruined by a dirty fanning mill. Thoroughness is the secret of a good SUCCESSFUL FLOWtiK SHOW Despite many difficulties.the (lower show promoted'by the. Matsqui Women's Institute was held on Wednesday last and proved very successful. It was almost'cancelled because of mosquitoes, it almost -perished under 'lhe .objection of'drought. The ladies in charge were weighed down by their inexperience, and the high lights who should have graede the opening ceremony wore unable' to appear with their beams and blessings, yet every stroke was successful, every (able a scheme of beauty. ' Mrs Phiuncy, as president, in graceful little speech mentioned the dilUo.ulties and made no apologies because none were necessary. Hugo banks of (knvers against the wall, of every, hue and variety a garden can off op, represented the inter-institute display- competition, where Mission led in mass of color and number of flowers. Both Mission and i-Uuzic contributed largely to the success of the show. For' the best display of the institute colors, yellow, white.and green, JIalaic gained the honors, with a pretty display of daisies and yellow carnations shown by Mrs.-Fripp. Mrs. Solloway of Misison iCyt took firsts in' both'annual" and--perennial blooms, with a line collection'^ arrayed in mossy trays. The queen of the show, however, was the sweet .pea, where every conceivable shade was" arrayed with a rare taste for color ��������� harmony along the big table, the prize for' this most popular class going to Mrs. Millar for an epergne of lovely four-bloomed stems. Mr. Dean of Aldergrove had a table of superb roses, both old favorites and new wonders. In the .blooms for competition those of Mrs. "White won distinction. _ Several delightful decorated ta Ci. W.

Put in this country we ,the past .few years, almost feel like saying, that if a man wants to bo a Dolskie he had better hike for Russia and find out for himself a thorough knowledge of ..the conditions ast hey .exist before he says Rolskie. Lenine should have a fair idea of what Bolshevism mean's, and here is what .he says: "Freedom is a borgeois notion, devised as a cloak under which to hide the spectre of economic slavery. Russia must get rid of the notion that happiness is to be attained by letting every man do as he likes. An iron government composed of a few unshrinking men with clear minds and emphatic class consciousness is what Russia wants and what, happily, Russia has . ���������. . Shirking and grumbling are as bad forms of treason as intriguing with the White reactionaries, and one treason will be as sharply punished ae the other." - If grumbling were punishable in Canada where would half or more of us be at the present time? We ought, to get at the genuine Bolshevist idea. Even if it were admitted that he were right about Russia, Nero could excuse himself in exactly the same fashion, wherefore determine to impress the rest of the world into a habitual state of massacre? It would be intensely funny df it were not so tragic. Imagine sane men and women on this continent advocating a system which these leaders admit'is a tyranny, is only fit for children and uneducated people, and can only be carried on by an iron government of a few unshrinking men���������unshrinking because1 they do not hesitate to murder and ' massacre and who consider any criticism and shirking or grumbling at their iron-handed methods, treason fittingly punished by death.

Credits are restricted but no wise and 'hecessarj i business operation will be compelled to cease. Strikes in basic industry, land restricted production, with con- ' sequent apparent 'expensive, but determination and sacrifice will enable us to continue. Of course, sacrifice must be universal. It can not be made to apply to part of the people only. Instead of constantly increasing wages in an effort to overtake the cost of living, we must .halt the onward march of money wage and secure the balance through efficient production and consequent higher real wage.- Instead of struggling to increase production by using more people we must do more work with less people. . The morale of the nation and of the world is low. It will not be raised by a "don't care" attitude. It j can'be raised by encouragement and by the determination of all the people to think'-right do right, and work right.

Things in general may.not be just right, these days but the main idea is to keep on driving ahead.

We have learned to really understand the meaning of morale during the past few years, as applied to warfare. Unfortunately, we have not quite accepted it as a necessity of a peace time program. Today, our restlessness is partly due to the low morale existing. Because nerves are i'n\ye(\, because there is more of leisure, because work Ls looked upon as something undesirable, because extravagance is rampant, production curbed, and strikes continue to disturb any trend, to more normal conditions, it is easy to say, with morale low, "What's the use?" Of course that is just the state of mind desired by those who take joy in creating or continuing feverish and restless conditions. Real men will fight hardest when hardest pressed. use the best mbincd with strict attention to the work in hand and the world will soon be back on the old job again���������everything working as near perfect as any human devised system can be expected. 40. 41. 42. 4 3. 44. 46. 47. 48. 49. 50. 51. 5'2. 53. 54. 55. 56. 57.

The regulating of crates and weights is fully as much In the interests of British Columbia as in the interests of fair traders on the prairie.

A law will go into effect in California this rail prohibiting Japanese from leasing land for a longer period than one year and which will abrogate those leases already made for 9 9 years and under. It has been the ���������"prevailing custom in California for thoJapanese to make 9 9 year leases, which to all intents and purposes is equivalent lo buying the land outright. Under this system the wily boys have succeeded in getting control of the greater portion of the most productive land in the state. It is also being noted by the secret ser- ' vice department of the government that the Japanese have control of ���������U nearly all the vantage points such as '���������tops of hills and. other places where .high power cannon could dominate the surrounding country,, much the same way as the Germans carried on their, nefarious work among the French. The state of California is now" thoroughly aroused and the law (hot goes into effect this fair will in nil probability, cause an open break with Japan.Thus it will now be clearly seen-why the United States could not curtail her naval construction programme upon the signing of the armstiee and why she would not commit herself to a policy which practically places China under the domination of Japan. It transpires that. ('arrair/.7.a, former president of Mexico sold or gave to the Japanese many rights and privileges that are frowned upon by the United States government, and which at the pres- r :if Cms are under scrutiny.

ANDREWS GASH GROGER " '"" concluded a new treaty with Japan calling for many concessions, the ���������Washington government and Britain are now conferring in an effort to smooth out the ruffled surface. The wily Japs have played one nation a- gainst. the other until they have placed themselves in position to pursue an aggressive policy without molestation. They have assumed control of the Chinese Eastern railway and have occupied Saghalien and much of the maratime province of Siberia. It is quite evident to all those who read that the Japs are preparing to carry out a program of expansion and they are not particular whose territory they invade, and it is easy to see that the United States will, before very 'long be called upon to defend her rights in the Pacific. Japanese should take no greater privileges in any other country than they are willing to give in their own country to aliens Who ever heard of a white man being allowed to hold land in Japan.���������Exchange The funeral of the late Soffia Moi of Matsqui, took place from the Lutheran church last week, Rev.

An index of conditions is afforded by particulars furnished by Mr. E. M. Gilland. manager of the Pacific Berry Growers' Association. Ten cars of strawberries have been shipped this year and so far three cars of raspberries have been sent out against 19 and 10 cars respectively last year. The full tally for rasps will not reach last year's figures as the shipping season is more than half over. The shortage is also reflected in the figures fcr jam fruit, 100 cars of which O. O. I).
