The sequel is shipping in carload lots and it is - lkely-that hereafter the growers will arrange.to have'the raspberries from . Hatzic and' Mission shipped by car lots as much as possible. -It is~ safe to'say that next year more of the growers will join the the growers union and thus share the benefits of the carlot shipments The raspberry crop has been" an un usually successful one this year and- having secured a uniform price of $1.78 net "per crate it seems as tho'. a new era of prosperity was ahead of the fruit growers of this district.'. . It would appear that in this district that the raspberry crop is the surest one for the growers. In conversation with Mr. J. A. Catherwood an old timer in the fruit business he stated that for the past - twenty-five years he had not known a failure in the raspberry crop. This is however the first year that the berries have been grown in carload lots The members of the Growers Union have all been heavy shippers this year. Messrs ^night Bros have shipped out about 1.500 crates, while Mr. F. iShook heads the list with 2000, ptrlgs * ��������� * ������������������'./,'''��������� The following is the carload shipments this season. ;������������������:..'

Friday by The Post Publishing Company A weekly Journal devoted'to the interests of Abbotsford and district A, weeKiy J^ertlsling ratea made known on application . -Neither, for nor agin' the Government Our Shibbolethr . B. C: is making history. The Battle of the Bay was fought oh Sunday morning early July 20th between the Canadian. Immigration officials, assisted by numerous special, police, and the dirty tramp steamer Komagatu Maru, full of benighted Hindus.

COMING BACK TO B. C. TO ENTER POLITICS ������������������"-'srsu. ���������iSSHSSSS SSKSSFS v "Fighting Joe" Martin is coming back to B/C. and does not intend according to reports to again run for political honors in his present constituency in .England. Good for. Joe we all thought he would get tired of the system in Merry Old England and who can blame him,, for. while always a 'ladies' man' there is just a possibility that the suffragettes might get him sometime ��������� should he still remain there The despatch does not state that he does not intend to enter politics again in Canada but it is sincerely hoped that he will take.a hand in-,'the next provincial election in this province There was never so much fun in politics in this province as, when Joe Martin had a hand in the affairs in some way He was called the stormy petrel of. the political field of the province and sure enough he was "stirring things up but the people turned him down but as things are going now it .might be posible that he is wanted-in the province to help out.in bringing it back to normal . Should Joe desire to run in the province it is very likely that he would be able to find a seat, and just for the novelty of thing ft is believed the. people would elect him with a good majority. Although- a Liberal in politics Mr. Martin, had always a fondness for helping out our present premier Many in B. C. would welcome a little excitement for a change.
