R< DesMAZES' '���������: ABBOTSFORD AND WHATCOM RO AD Phone 16 ' , ' Farmers 1913 There was a splendid attendance ! importance, and the .uniting togeth- at the annual meeting of Abbotsford and District Board of "Trade held in -the Bank of Montreal Chambers on Monday evening. .A very gratifying report of the year's, work was .' given by the retiring president, Mr. N. Hill, who spoke with optimism of the prospects for prosperity in B. C., in which Abbotsford and district must share. ; The organization of'the Fraser Valley Boards of'Trade was - referred - to ��������� - and - some-- of- its- benefits mentioned. Continuing, Mr. Hill said that the twelce "months past was not marked by any spectacular event, the calendar is unmarked , by any great achievement. The Board has carried on much as- usual, dealing with such things a������s come before it in the interests of the community. They have used their best efforts to get as much as pos sible for roads and sidewalks. In- October the subject of vtown lighting under' the Rural Lighting Act was brought before the people. The reception accorded- this measure was not very cordial and the matter was thrown back into committee. Mr. Hill said that 1921 and .191:2 had been depressing years. Between excessive' rains, unprecedented cold, drought and other, adverse weather conditions, the agriculturalist has had a pretty* hard row to hoe. Unstable markets', falling prices and uncertainties,. in industrial matters all contributed their share to the general depression which resulted <n a very considerable falling off of the volume of trade and gener.il business. Continuing, Mr. Hill said that it was of the future that he would like most to speak, believing as he did that the mild fall, and the warm open winter we have had ��������� so -'far, will be very decided'factors in bringing local conditions back to normal or better, or at least assisting to that end. The farmer has not been compelled to commence feeding as' soon or so heavily and he has been "Sieved of the strain of- a long cold winter so far, and all were hoping that the mild weather will continue into spring. Taking a bri"!' view of provincial , conditions we feel that a spirit of optimism prevades the scene. Tho prospects for the lumber industry look good. American lumbermen are casting their eyes toward this province, as the last great stand of big timber on the North American continent, and it is to be hoped that the province will reap rich harvest. We have read signs of renewed activities in the mineral world, and if such-signs are read aright this department should yield tribute to the prosperity of 1923. Mr. Hill sincerely thanked all for their attendance at the Board of Trade and for the support he had received during the year, and in conclusion requested that the members continue to give their assistance and support to those chosen to carry on the work for the coming year. The cultivation of a community spirit was strongly advocated, the forgetting of many things that crop up day by day, things of practically no er to get behind the best things for the welfare of the'place in which to live. The report of the treasurer' was >given and adopted, and showed a balance of $9.65. Liabilities, note ir. the Royal Bank of Canada of $125.- 00, and the possession of a typewriter worth $75.00 (as an asset): The total receipts for the year $440.18, and expenses to the amount of $43o.- 62 ;had--been 'met."' ���������'-; ~--i' '"T^- ';; During the meeting $77.00' was netted for membership as against $45.00 at'the annual meeting'of last year.

Reference was made to the lighting of the town, incorporation, and many other important undertakings under consideration. Mr. Whitchelo suggested that the chairman of each committer should work out their own departments during the current year. He also spoke with favor of the community spirit with the view of making Abbotsford and District take the central prominence which it enjoys as the central part of the Fraser Valley. Greater co-operation of the district surrounding Abbotsford was emphasized by several of the members with the idea of increasing the benefits of outside districts. - An interesting', double wedding took place on New Year's Day-' at Barriere, when Kaulbick Johnstone Nelson and'Katherine Nelson, son and daughter,of Mr. and Mrs. J._H.

The respective bridesmaids were Miss Agnes it Raul of Adams River and Miss .Violet Shaf- er of Barriere, and the grooms supported by Messrs. James and Wil-' liam Nelson. Both brides looked very attractive in white' dresses with bridal veils. The dance which followed the ceremony was enjoyed by many.

THE ABBOTSFORD'-PQST Published Every- Friday J. A. BATES. Editor and Proprietor I ed his legions swiftly over t erto impassable Alps, on a gc FRIDAY, JANUARY 12, 1923 ' It is not often that a politician announces that the next election will be his last, as-did Mr W. J. Bowser recently In Vancouver. Politicians generally stick with, the game untM such time as they ore placed in its ��������� discard by the electorate or are sent to Ottawa to.sit In tho "Home or Refined Politicians." Some call it the "Old Man's Home." but we do not think that is a good name, as there are some young men there, and aftoi' all while members of tho Senate may appear old in years there is no question but they do-exorcise good Judgment at times, and to cast an odium of being the inmate of an old man's home would signify that their days of usefulness were past, which is not. the case. Some of the brightest politicians, in Canada' are members of the Senate. But just what did Mr. Bowser mean' when he stated that the "next .will be my last?,;' -That-.one, sentence taken out-of the speech may mean but little, but if connected up with the thread of his discourse might, have a significance. In the same speech he is said as being hopeful of the .success, of. the. Conservative party at the polls the- next time, in which case he would in all.probabil- ' ity be' premier. . Recently a report came ^ from Ottawa that there would be an election in B. C. soon. But , knowing ones winked their eye and said it was not bo. Mr. Bowser predicted in Vancouver last week that there would bo .. an election in. 1923-or 1924. He is old enough politician now to read-.the handwriting on the wall, and may have inside information.. He has a peculiar knack "of having up-to.-date information in political matters. The inside workings of the Oliver- government, at Victoria is no better now'than it was'last, year when some of the faithful went down and conferred with Premier Oliver, pressing home certain facts, with such, force that he admitted lie was undertaking too many of the duties that should fall.on the' shoulders.of others'. Since that time he has seen fit to appoint- a doctor to analyze the case of the, P. G. E. Other changes have been made that have-lightened the duties of the premier. The last session pointed to the fact that all was not working, well within the party. Less than a- baker's dozen of the followers of the premier sat in the legislature when, he made some of his important speeches. Did they admire ' their leader they would have been there In'full force to hear him hand it out to the leader of the opposition. Throughout the country there are life-long Liberals who declare that they will not again follow their present, leader in the next election. So that the present government with its supporters of 1916 forms no mutual admiration society. Of course there are those in both parties all over "the country who change in between elections���������some for one reason, and some for another. On the other hand we believe that at the present time there are more admirers' of Mr. Bowser throughout the province than there has been for many years. He has shown that in the dark shades of opposition he is able to probe quite a distance into the affairs of the government with a view to bringing out the weaknesses. He claims' he has done so but mior Oliver .-���������' ;.". ..times. Maylu Premier Oliver needs'.a good, friend at Ottawa. Maybe King is the good angel who goes to prepare a political place for Premier Oliver -when the time arrives. Have you not heard good Liberals say that the party will be recognized before the next provincial election? That a new' leader will head the Liberal party. At tiie coming session of the Mouse at Ottawa the question of a Redistribution bill is promised. Tt was said that the ��������� Conservatives should not have gone to the countvy until it had been passed. Last session it was overlooked. According, to the census it is claimed that B. C. is entitled to one more represent^-, live-at least, making 14 instead of 13 as at present. Burrard which includes the outskirts of Vancouver City and all the north shore of the Inlet, claims another .representative. Tho next most' pressing claim may be that of the Cariboo riding which 'stretches from the Arctic almost to the international border via Kamloops and Nicola. The northern portion of this district claims a representative of its own. Now should a Redistribution Act .in coming into force' give to the province two more members, making it 15, then there is no question- but 'that B. C. would be entitled to another representative in the Senate. We do,not know how long after the new act came,into force.it would be strictly politically polite to - appoint the new senator. That would depend on the government of the day, and we might at any time be privileged <to see the cartoonist for the big daily in Vancouver drawing pictures of the Hon. Dr King, Minister of Public.Works, at Ottawa, leading by the hand the overwork id premier of this province, Hon. John Oliver; and introducing him to the .speaker and the members of the Senate as the man for the job; and by thus accepting the new honors relieved' the provincial political situation in B. C; and at the same time maintain the prestige of an honored political career of a very strenuous nature in B. C, commencing first as a-follower of Joseph Martin in 1898. Then along would come the cartoonist again telling how ex-Premior Oliver as the newest, senator of the province was carefully looked after by senior B. C. Senators, until at Ducks he was taken in charge of by the leader of the Senate,- Hon. Senator Bostock. Old politicians who have followed the political life in this province would highly appreciate this picture, or cartoon. ' As the speaker after a long tiresome speech says yet another cartoon and we are through. There might be heights other than' Senator to which Mr. Oliver might a.-mire, and with Mr. Bowser as premier might it not be quite fitting that when the term of the present lieutenant-governor expires, that Senator Oliver might come to B. C. to fitill "keep his eye on Bowser." THE HIGHWAYS OF PROGRESS The following article appeared in a recent issue of ''Good Roads," the official ..organ of the Edmonton Automobile and Good Roads Assn., and Reed, es. He claims' he has aone bo uui war, contributed by Chas. H the extent of some of these will not n������J. President of the association. ��������� ��������� ... , The same problems that obtain, in be known until tho present govern ment sits again in the cold shades of opposition. In this he has aroused the curiosity of many of the voters who may next opportunity try to sco if Mr. Bowser is right, and vote Conservative. Notwithstanding the apparent ������e- curity of the present government at Vitoria it would not be surprising that an election is looming on the political horizon and may come up quite unexpected. We'"shall see. Grain elevators for Vancouver might appear to have been the biggest question discussed with Hon Dr. King on his recent visit to this province, but it may be that he came on other-matters. Keep in mind -tho fact that Dr. King is a friend of Pre- problem Edmonton' will be no doubt equally applicable in this district or elsewhere and this article; is passed on with this end in view. Men build roads for progress' sake with their hands, with their minds, and both are dependent on each other. The travel road used by,the automobile, the railway, by men and animals, for pleasure, industry or health, is made possible by ti'^'rond of thinking, the road of ability to transfer such thought into the action which builds roads, and so brings prosperity to all. Millions of money have been lost in the past by the lack of good travel roads, as again, millions of people have been held back from progress' and prosperity by the lack of a good road of mental thought and expression. Men build���������for progress' sake��������� and the whole history of human effort has had its beginning in the building of a road���������a road of thinking���������a road of travel, Caesar mov- the hith-' ood road placed there as a' result.of , mental. action, which quickly recognized obstacles and the. easiest way to .overcome them. The same thought and ambition which urged Caesar to build that -road, urged him also to build for .posterity. ' Caesar's travel roads are used today. Napoleon was one who combined great intelligence with power and ability to build good roads. He knew that motion was progress, and progress was civilization, and he built wisely and well. ' ' At one time, all America used horse-driven vehicles over muddy travel roads, and in some parts, even do it now. Today, nearly every road is a railroad, for along it is driven the automobile at railway speed, and the concrete road is displacing the old muddy road, so becoming as important as the . ste-3l railroad. The good road enables the doctor to get speedily in,touch with the emergency case of illness," or accident, where time saves life. The good road means travel,10in comfort to those who use it, and so intercommunication between town and town, individual and individual is made easy, and as the post office system of today allows millions to communicate easily and inexpensively by means of the written word, so docs the good road allow these millions to meet in person. Distance is no detriment, as long as the road la good. , , People are invariably classified as to their prosperity by the road within their gates. The rich man's abode is always approached from,the front, gates by smooth roads���������ugly, muddy roads are shut .out,���������for the r.icli man recognizes the value of comfort and knows that a good road is ocm-' fort. Northern America has always beon spoken of as a rich country. Canada always prides itself.,on its' progress and prosperity, but often the poor road is allowed to occupy the placo of the good road, all for. lack of u, good mental road of thought and action. Some, overlooking the mental road, the use of which would answer* their own argument, say: "Look at the expense of building good roads." They pass over .the profitable side without thought, for all who think, know that a' good road has' always proved itself profitable, and never too expensive, for what a good roa.l saves in time to useful", individuals, in machinery, repairs and breakages, in slow delivery, and all othe;-' ills of poor roads, is more than enough to balance the cost, and show a profit besides. - Good roads mean healthy circulation. Poor roads mean clogged arteries. The wise individual always keeps his body, which means his circulation, in good order, for he realizes it means life to him, and so wise communities' do likewise with their roads, for good roads are the life of any community. WORK FOR GOOD ROADS. No country can afford to be without good roads, no individual either. A good road programme means business for all, right from the time the first sod is turned, in material and labor. Good roads mean better values and new chances, for all. New inducements' for the hard pressed urban resident to become the happy yeoman of the country-side. More contented farmers, happier homes and greater business. So why not work for good roads? . The public school represents tha nation's great mental road building, but it must always' leave an uncompleted job. It can only lay the foundation for the completed mental highway, leading to personal success, which. depends for its final completion on the individual itself. , Each man is his own road builder, and as with nations so it is with men, both are known by- the roads they build, the roads they travel. Work with your neighbors to get better roads for your district over 'which men, wagon, auto and rails can travel, work with your'own mind for the road of wider thought and accomplishment. Both route's are less expensive, builded='wisely and well, than the poor road of ignorance, of mud, and their bqon companion, poverty. Follow the leadf of those, who, in Edmonton itself, are today urging the value of good roads, to Alberta and the Dominion. atotwfti'MaigfEtfaggrBranniauhig POULTRY A FOOD NOT A LUXURY ���������.Satisfactory Telephone Service Telephone service embraces a variety of operation a; the installation o.f telephones and changes-in location; telephone'operating; maintenance of central office equipment, outside plant and telephone apparatus; 'accurate and up to date, directory listings; billing; collecting'and numerous other things that must be done to give service that will be complete and "satisfactory.

Poultry meat has dropped in price to such an extent that its general use should be more seriously considered. Viewed from the economic as well as the scientific standpoint of nutrition it is worthy of a higher place and more frequent use in the daily diet than it has been accorded. It should be regarded as an essential part of our diet rather than as a luxury. The question of the value of poultry meat for food has been given attention by chemists at various times, Results of their researches have been published from time to time. Analy pumisneu irum niuc w u������m<-. "������������������������'������?,,,; seB have been made of the flesh of* children. practically all kinds . of domestic fowl and these furnish a basis for other articles of human food. A comparison of poultry meats with beef, veal, lamb and pork show that the refuse in poultry is somewhat less than in the other meats. Furthermore, the carcass of fowl can bo used as soup stock, thus rendering available a large amount of nourishment which would otherwise be IofjI. and which in the case of other moata is often discarded. The amount of water is about the same in poultry as in other meats but the amount of indigestible nutrients in poultry is small. Summing up these differences, poultry shows a slightly higher portion actually available for nourishment than other meats. As fats furnish more heat per unit: weight than proteins or carbohydrates and since poultry meat is somewhat lower in fat than other meats its fuel value . is correspondingly less. To state this in another way, poultry meat furnishes more tissue forming but loss of the heat forming elements and it must be borne in mind that as a rule the former are. the-more expensive. Common or domestic fowl contains more refuse than average poultry, is about average in protein but richer In fat. Turkey contains relatively little refuse about 2 per cent, more protein and the same proportion of fat. Goose shows the lowest proportion of refuse ol! the poultry meats, a lower proportion of protein but much higher fat content. Combined with this is a certain prejudice against goose which has a tendency to lower the market price, Thin has resulted to make goose of the cheapest, most wholesome and nutritious foods' on the market. -Duck contains relatively large amounts of refuse, little protein and large quantities of fat. Poultry as a whole (especially chickens and geese) with the low price and high muscle forming properties, the easily digested and palatable qualities' make the ideal meat food for everybody, particularly for those in offices and for invalids and Alex.

Bo:: 94 1??otor^ot1^ Motorists, often wonder why their tires blow out when the ca^ is standing in the garage or being driven along smooth pavements. The fact is that tires frequently "do hot. blow out at the time they aru injured! Often they run for several hundred'or even a' thousand, miles after being seriously bruised. The cotton fibres, in the ruptured carcass snap gradually, one by one. This breaking continues, to weaken the tire until the final- result in a blowout. f The car owner,has' forgoten oftentimes all circumstances attending the injury. Unlike the falling of a building which is ordinarily preceded by creaking sounds and giving of the walls, no" .warning is given to the motorist until the blow out actually occurs. / Tire ��������� men. ' say the principle" is much the same as wlien an, axle of the' car breaks on a smooth road. It may have'been half broken for a long time, and h'.ve even rusted ��������� before it finally gives away. When some object in the rop.d is hit, drives sometimes wonder that the tire does not blow out. But they1 rarely remember these accidents' when the tire gives way hter. Frequently such a blow-out is blamed on a defective tire. Guarding against tire bruises is particularly important in the late fall and winter. It is these bruises that give the maximum of tire troubles in the spring. The majority of bruises' are not in running against curbs and over sharp stones or bricks, and over car tracks ' It pays in safeguarding the tires" against bruising to drive carefully especially over country railroad crossings.

While fruit growing was a well established industry in the old or provinces of Canada' 25 years ago, thi trade, particularly for export, was in a most unsatisfactory state owing to lack of packing and grading regulations. At that time certain commercial standards were used which var-' ied with the season and the individual judgment of ��������� the packer,,,and as a result all grade marks had becomj meaningless to the trade. Over-facing was also, a common practise. The returns from apple sales m- Great Britain- reflected the lack of confidence felt by buyers in Canadian packs., ' .Realizing that as production in-' creased and distribution ' extended, standardization of packages and uniform grading regulations were necessary if the fruit industry was to be permanently successful, the Department encouraged this marketing necessity, and as a result', "The Fruit. Marks Act" was passed in '3 901, tho Bill being introduced by Senator E. D. Smith, a well known shipper of the Niagara district. The Act made it compulsory for all fruit packed in' a closed package intended, for sale to be marked with the name and address of tho packer, the variety of fruit and the designation1 of grade, 'the grade mark used being optional with the packer. It also provided a penalty for overfacing. The Fruit Marks Act hast b-3cn amended from time to time lo meet the growing needs of the industrv, and the evolution of the, Act Is practically the history of standardization so far as the fruit history of Canada is concerned.< The Act now specified ail grade marks that may be used. defines the grades, contains regulations with respect to imported fruil, the filling of'packages, and the sale of im'maiu're or decayed fruit. It also applies to open as well as closed packages', and provides standard packages for practically all kinds of fr.uit grown commercially" in Canada. The specifications for , these . packages .having been carefully worked out by growers', package- .,manufacturers and representatives of the Fruit Branch/ Previous to the standardization the multiplicity of packages in use created unfair competition as well as being deceptive to the consumer. Immediately after the passing of the Act it became evident that some machinery would be provided for its enforcement.' The . Minister of Ag- griculture therefore , organized the Fruit Division. With eight inspectors' in the fall of 1901* the inspection service, has developed at the request'of the industry until, during the season of 1921-22, over sixty inspectors were .employed, vorking almost entirely among the growers and packers, not only inspecting the fruit as it was packed, but also giving instructions in the best methods of picking, packing, grading and shipping. 'In 1901-02, , 814 inspections were made," while in 1921-22 che staff inspected 21,473 shipments. The first'power spraying demonstrations in Eastern Canada, were arranged by the Fruit Branch twenty years ago, and since then the Branch has co-operated with the provincial department of agriculture in all educational work leading to improved orchard practise and to better methods of picking, packing, storing, and loading -fruit. Packing demonstrations with all kinds of fruit and all varieties of packages' have been part of the work of the Branch since its inception. In 1904 the Department arranged for a western box-packer to introduce that-mcthod of, packing in Eastern Cannda.' Such..'demonstrations have been continued from time to time until a fair proportion, of the east;1 ern crop is now .being bcxed, although the barrel continues . to bo tho pop.ular container in t;iat .territory. , .,, '"Another factor in successful marketing is reliable information as to source of supply and market conditions. Owing to' the perishable nature of fruits, its was recognized that crop estimates and market intelligence should be included in the activities of the Branch. In 1905 the distribution of a Monthly Crop Report was commenced, showing conditions in the commercial fruit,- districts, crop prospects and .. market values in Canada and competing countries.- This bulletin also includes notes on transportation matters and other items' affecting direct-' ly or indirectly'the marketing of fruits and vegetables. Since 19T4 a 'Telegraphic Market News Letter has been issued seini- .weekly throughout the marketing season. ��������� This is published simultaneously at Middleton, N. S., Ottawa, Ont., Winnipeg, Man., .and Vancouver, B. C. It contains prices telegraphed by members of the staff in the marketing centres from'Halifax to Vancouver and, during the export season, the prices' paid on the large markets of the United Kingdom as cabled direct by the Canadian Fruit Trade '.Commissioner in Liverpool; also the wholesale markets in several-large centres of the United States The .necessity 'for a special Fruit Trade Commissioner in Great Britain was urged by the Fruit'.Branch for many -years.! , The appointment ���������was made, in 1916, .and the ;"result has been that " Canadian '��������� exporters have secured unprejudiced criticism and valuable information as to the ���������best method of meeting the , market requirements of the United Kingdom and Europe. To deal with the many complex problems arising in connection witn both domestic and export transportation division was added to the jorancix, in 1917, with the result that the co-operation of the carrying companies was secured in improving uie service for the transportation of fruits and vegetables'. There has been a gradual evolution of transportation facilities during the "past few years which has made possible the distribution of the Canadian fruit crop from the , producing centres to the most distant markets, thus in' a measure keeping pace with the development of the industry. Special experiments have been mane to 'determine the' proper types of cars to be used under refrigeration, ventilation and heating; the proper method of loading cars, and the best niethod of handling in transporca- tation the different kinds of fruits. Valuable information has' been gathered and many , improvements have ;been brought about by the co-operation between Uiis division and ' the carriers. - With the improvement in grading, packing and, marketing, due to the enforcement of "The Fruit Marks Act," with the development of cooperative packing and marketing, large lots of uniform quality, grade and variety to ,be placed on the market, and with the advancement made in ' transportation conditions, ' the commercial fruit industry in Canada is in good shape to face the period of general trade depression which is the result of reaction after the war years. The Fruit Branch has encouraged the establishing of pre-cooling- plants in producing district for handling1 tender fruit in refrigerator cars.has made it' possible to, move safely British Columbia fruits of all kinds tfas,far east as the Atlantic .Coast, while Ontario berries, peaches and other soft fruits'are being-landed in perfect condition on the Prairie ^markets. , . Legislation ;1901���������iThe Fruit Marks Act passed , requiring name and address "of " packer, the variety of the fruit .and a grade mark to be placed.on i "every closed package of fruit pack- , ed for sale, and that the face or ' shown surface be a fair represen7 i tation of the contents of the package. Grade marks to designate \ the quality of the fruit were optional. :^L902���������Act . amended , providing ; grade marks No. 1 or.

This tide iwas dammed by the war and its (resumption retarded by after-war conditions. Canada erected legislative barriers as to quantity, quality land kind. Canadian leaders now declare fthat so far as Canada is concerned ���������the barriers must be raised and [immigration encouraged. Lord Shaughriessy, under whose administration as its president, the Canadian Pacific Railway performed miracles of colonization and development for Canada, says: "We imust have immigration, We have ihad very little since 1914. On the contrary, I am afraid we have lost somewhat.

There ar< thriving colonies of UkrcMans, 'olo.s. Hrnjrarians, Swiss, Dutch, Scandinavians and Welsh, in addition to many of these nationa'ities that have been m^rcred into mixed 'ommunities. Between 1900 *rd 1915, Canada absorbed 256,942 immigrants from the Central Powers rind less than 100 have come in during the succeeding years. Canada realizes the value of worthy immigrants, no matter whence their origin, and the first "tens are being taken to open her gates to all- such. 1906���������In the revised Statutes of>Can ada The Fruit Marks' Act, togeth- - er with other Acts relating to fruit and fruit packages, was codified as Part IX of the Inspection - and Sale Act. 1907-8���������The Act was amended limiting the grade marks that might ���������' be used to numerals, No. 1, No. 2 ^ and No. 3. ,The No. 2 grade was ', defined. The, use of a" "Fancy, grade was' also permitted, this , grade requiring practically perfect fruit. [ 1913���������An amendment was made, covering the application of the-, Act to imported fruit, the kinds of" fruit to which it was applicable, to:', ' be prescribed by the Governor in" Council. 1918���������Amendments were made eliminating the Fancy grade, ..which had proved impracticable, and pro-; viding for a "Domestic" grade in addition to No. 1, No. 2 and._''. No. 3. Provision was also majle ,for- the marking of open packages with' the name and address; of the packer, the proper marking of rc-k packed fruit and of packages used;( a second time; it was also made an;'< offence to pack, immature fruit of-; certain specified kinds, and diseas-,-| ed fruit. A provision was also; .made requiring that fruit packages,- must be well and ' properly filled^ at shipping point. The regulation.' with respect to ' over-facing was'.; also made more stringent!, and stan;. dard packages' were prescribed for; practically all fruits grown com-.; mercially in Canada. ' - 1920���������Further, necessary amend-,, ments.in connection with"' pack-^' ages were adopted. 1922���������In recognition of a . wide-.; spread demand from the potato..; ��������� and onion industries for-., grading'' legislation, the Department "arranged a conference of-representatives of those " industries "to meet in Ottawa, in February, 1920, to consider the advisability:of providing federal grades., ,' Recommendations were made" by the ' Con-, ference with respect to the, grad-. , ing and^marking'of these-products' ��������� and the sale of. vegetables by weight, and The Roots' Vegetables Act, prepared in accordance' witlt- the wishes of that conference, was passed by Parliament- in 'June, 1922..

' .���������-'������������������������ The Chalet at Lac Beauvert, which last year had accommodation - for eighty-four guests, is being enlarged to' hold 300; Colonel Rogers' states; A considerable amount of. road, and trail construction will also.; be undertaken during the summer season. Two survey parties are now put choosing a route for the EdmontonT Jasper Park Highway. This', 230- mile road will be-, complete within three years, he believes. . ��������� From Edmonton the abandoned G. T P. grade will be utilized in making the road. Inside the park the choice of route ��������� lies between . the north and south ,bank of the Athabasca River. The whole idea which is being worked out under Colonel Rogers is to keep the park as nearly as possible in its natural state'. .No great hotels ' where dressing for dinner and smart dances are the feature; will be built. Rather the government will erect a series of chalets, where the simple life will be led. We want the park to be a place of rest and recreation,", said Colonel. Rogers. "It is no holiday for society people to go to some place where they must be constantly decking themselves out in trappings of civilization." Under the aegis of Agnes Laut. noted Canadian author, a colony of professional people has been established in the park. This will be no refuge for the long-haired parlor Bohemian, but a camp where hardworking men and women of the learned professions may go to rest and receive inspiration, Colonel Rogers declares. Jasper Is the largest national park, game preserves and- wild bird.sanctuary in the world, according to Colonel Rogers. It embraces 440 square miles of varied scenery of a magnificent character. ^ Its fame is spreading abroad and t next summer will witness a tremendous influx of tourists, he believes. Last summer limited accommodation made it necessary to turn back many travellers who wished to spend a short time amid nature's beauties, lis stcitss* Colonel Rogers commanded the 9th Battalion, 1st Canadian division. When this unit was broken up in England he was declared too old for active service and was kept on training work in England during the war. KAMLOOPS, Jan. 10.���������Ex-Aid. J. R.
