The prize list which is a good one is now in the hands of the printer and will be issued next week and distributed among the members' of the Association: "-later it will appear in. the Fraser. Valley Record. All are invited to exhibit. . ��������� . _ The Matsqui fair has always been, a good one and the prospects are that it wll be bigger and better than ever. Many of the most prominent farmers have signified their intent- ioji._of swelling the exhibits so' as to overflow the present large building. There will no doubt be many from Mission with exhibits, and of course a lot of visitors. It is probable that the Hon. E. D. Barrow, Minister of Agriculture will be present to open the fair. ��������� Don't forget the date and the fact that the exhibits must be bigger and better than ever in order to keep up the good name of Matsqui. Start now to conider what you are going to send to Matsqui's big fair. 13. C. GAMS REGULATIONS' Mission City Fall Fair The Mission City and District Fair promises to be a record breaker and a few closing hints- to exhibitors are now in order.. Enter everything you have that is fit for show and enter it early. Bring your exhibits to the Fair grounds as soon as possible and assist the officers and directors in .every way you can. It is very important that entries be made early as far as exhibits to be placed in the building are cone-mod and that they bo on hand promptly so that the directors in charg-j of the hall may arrange the space Lo show the exhibits to the best advantage. Try,and help in this v. ay. Good judges have been secured jn every department and everything possible will be done to salify (���������..liibiiors.

I A. boy named .Far, aged 13, was 'playing on the pump house at Oif- | ford on Sunday and fell on a heavily .volted wire and burned badly, his ! left hand, being burned off and his ; lung exposed. Me was brought, to ! Abbotsford hospital and a special j nurse brought from Vancouver for i him'as ihe nurse here was too busily ! engaged to give such a serious case 'proper attention. It is expected that his arm will have to be amputated. The boy had been forbidden from time to time to stay away from there. "To further dchv' action looking towards the eradication of the mosquito post in the Fraser Valley, is nothing short of criminal neglect," said lion. F. D. Barrow,- minister of agriculture in the Oliver Government during a brief address.a I. the banquet on Tuesday evening last.' Mr. Barrow, who was unable to attend tho meeting in the afternoon, was the. chief' speaker at the banquet, tendered /.he visiting -delegates from the-Vancouver Board, of. Trade and outside points following the convention, the first in the history of-' the Valley which had been called primarily to deal with the'best method of eliminating the ubiquitous insect ifrom the agricultural areas of the lower Fraser Valley. The minister was quite at home on the subject after a-more or less intimate acquaintance .with the mosquito extending over a period of some twenty years in the Chilliwack district. He had visited Halzic during the berry season when the pest was the worst and he knew full well, he said, how difficult" the' farmer and fruit grower found it to operate. "I am satisfied," he said, "that the government will lake proper steps to assist you at the next session. I may say, I think, that Premier Oliver' is prepared to -co-operate and lo urge financial' assistance." - Mr. Barrow paid a tribute to the city girls who stuck to their fruit- picking despite'.'Vue fierce -offensive, of the mosquito: Their work was on. a par with that of the women of Great Britain, who had carried on so courageously since the ' fateful days of August, 1914, helping to Increase the production for home consumption from two weeks out of the year to 24 weeks. The afternoon session, over which Mr. C. E. Tisdale presided ably, and Mr. W. E. Payne acted efficiently as secretary, was an enthusiastic one. The attendance almost filled the Imperial hall, representatives being t present from all parts of the district. Among the representatives present were noticed: Councillor Ewing representing the Maple Ridge Council; Mr. Harris of Deroche; ex-Reeve J. B. Cade, W. J. Manson, ex-M. P. P.; ex-Councillor T. Catherwood of Hat- zic; ex-Councillor Wm. Elliott . of Matsqui; Mr. Fraser Yorke, one- of the old-timers of the Fraser Valley; Couns. Clark and Wren of Mission; 'Coun. McLean and Coun. Phin- ney of Matsqui; Sam Smith, the veteran dairyman of Dewdney; Councillor Thopmson of Mission; J. W. Win- son of Huntingdon; ex-Councillor M. Wilson, C. Stuart-Wade of New Westminster; Reeve Fooks of Sumas; Reeve McCallum of Matsqui; Reeve J A. Catherwood of Mission; Mi*. Goo. j G-ibbard, one of the pioneer farmers I of Cedar Valley; and dozens of other ' men who have a stake in the valley i and all anxious to see the mosquito migrate to the wilds of Potsdam. On the platform were: Reeves A. McCallum, Reeve fooks, Reeve Catherwood; A. A. Lane, president of the Mission City Board of Trade; Dr. a Hon. E. D. J3arroAV, Minister of Agriculture, who has promised his support for logistlation to help eliminate tho Mosquito Pest. He says it would be "criminal neglect'' not not to v.-o so.

Oil, "he said, 'was not a cure- all." Reclamation and drainage were the only true remedies for the mosquito. Three years ago Mr. Treherne had been sent west, with headquarters ac Agassiz. Chairman Tislade was a little too sanguine, as he understood his rmarks, when he expressed the belief that the scientists could, or would remedy their trouble, and clean up the pest. Control rests with the people of the districts alone. Our part is to investigate and advise, said the speaker. "It is our official duty. Unfortunately our staff is so depleted by the war, that we cannot spare men to meet the needs of all Canada, even though we realize the troubles. I admit that with the very excellent conditions' you have here, and the close proximity of markets, something must be done as early as possible; and more especially, as the needs of men returning from' the great war will need considering before very long, we hope. The question Is not an insuperable one. continued Dr. Hewitt", but it is one dependent on many conditions. Similar ones existed in western Ontario; they were formerly very bad. but. lotfjy are n;;ly troublesome.

"Whereas . the ' Kraser Valley is a district of enormous' productive possibilities; .and whereas I ho. said district .is severely haudicappe'd owing to the mosquito pest; "Be it resolved:'.That the provincial government be requested by this meeting as'enibled to privide legislation and financial assistance at the next session of the legislature, that will mitigate pr destroy the.mosquito nuisance, so that the valley may eventually assume its place in the production of milk, grains, small fruits, cattle, and the usual natural products of the country."

We sloughs arc sonii-pi'imov.'il: hollows r.nd ser-page. KeclamaMon, and drainage is tho principal factor: (.ho problem iu British Columbia, is generally 'speaking, either to get water, on the land, as in the Okruiagan, or, as iu this district, to get the greater part of the water off the laud. Tho Chilliwack Valley' is an example of the effects of land settlement and the resulting reduction of mosquito pests after clearing the-land. They cannot breed without water. Some doubting Thomas Will probably instance the Prairie pest, but it must be remembered that some mosquitoes lay their eggs that mature early In the spring and others later; some He in the snow and hatch in the small pools of snow water as it becomes warm. Entomologists show you where the breeding spots-arc; then comes the engineering problems. In the large and terrible mosquito districts of New Jersey, Dr. Campbell had no satisfactory "results until drainage showed Its influence and gave the remedy. Removal of stagnant water on the low lying lands of the Fraser river, clearing of brush and cultivation are the chief necessaries. I gather that the oil you have beeii' using in the past is not the best kind for that purpose. Crude and thick oil needs mixing with lighter oils. An engineer wrote the department" on behalf of the Abbotsford Board of Trade and I forwarded full details. I do not know what action' was taken by that Board. Here the necessity of co-operation was pointed out, and the speaker stated that i nless the people are willing to co-operate they might as well keep their money in their pockets. Contiguous districts must organize. The proposed legislation would enable the people to raise the money necessary for active work. The best policy would be to obtain a small commission, covering the whole mosquito area, but lifted out of local Interests and party politics. An independent body should be responsible for this worlc getting thoir advice from an expert. This would give unify of adieu. R. C. Treherne. Dr. Hewitt's chief' '���������.ssisinnt for British Columbia, also urged co-operation as the secret r-f iltiinate f.'ic^ss. The cities were an vitally .Interested in the .problem as "he valley "cynfres and he voiced .strong approval of the steps taken by th'e convention. The motion was put to the meeting after several had spoken, opening up new channels of thought. Among Miese were Mr. Plommer of the Clay- burn Works, M. McLean. Sam Smith whose cows eat tho grass even if the oil was. on it, and he thought it did ,'hem good, G. IT. Moody, F. A. E. Verchere. and others. The following committee was suggested and carried: Reeve McCallum, A.A.Lane. Pres. of the Mission City Board of Trade, Reeve Fooks, Reeve McCallum, a member of the New Wsetminster Board of. Trade and a member of the Vancouver Board of Trade, and Mr. Plommer. Mr. McCallum to be convener. 'v^ ffiSTS- ^���������^^smM^i^m^^^m^^^^^^^^^m^im^^mm ABBOTSFORD POST Published Every Friday j. A.

If you COULD (although, OF COURSE, you can't) stop every man you meet on the streets asd ask: "Do you want to buy a pair of shoes?" (.Or any other kind of goods) You might find ' half a dozen who .would say "Yes." Perhaps not one of these, however, would want to buy the article you want to sell. If your advertisement, however, were to be printed-in these columns this week, it would "stop" EVERY MAN IN TOWN WHO WANTS .TO. BUY SHOES, OR CLOTHES, OR ANY OTHER ARTICLE���������and it wouldn't "stop" .anyone who didn't want to buy- That's the beauty of the advertising way of findiag a buyer. The ad. finds the buyer through the simple process of being easily and readily found BY the buyer- And if, among the prospective buyers of goods, there is one to whom your goods would be a bargain, and your ad. is a convincing one, you'll soil what you want to sell.

We hope it will be a success, as dur ing tho last two-months we have not done as well as usual. Any ladies or children willing to help with the tagging kindly send in tht-ir names at the libary before next week. The motto now on the tags that will surely appeal, to everybody is "They have fought for us, can we let them su'.rvu? K. A.. APPLEBY, Sea.-trcas. P. of W. Fund, Mission Vancouver, Aug 13th, 19IS: Doar Friend: . The Tag Day for the Prioners of Wm;, which has now hcome an annual event, will, by permission of the j Mayor take place in Vancouver on Saturday, September 2ist. I hope that many other places in British Columbia may again co-oper- ato to make the Tag Day the success that it has been in former years. The Women's Canadian Club has promised to take charge in "Vancouver, but the Prisoners of War Committee will make arrangements for all other places and has a large supply of tags on hand. So many places are already giving liberally to the Prisoners that it would seem greedy almost on our part to suggest anything further,and this letter is really an annuncement that the Tag Day is to take place and not an appeal. On behalf of the committee, Sincerely yours, VIOLET E. SILL1TOE. MISSIOX SCHOOL OVEKCKOWUUI) (From the Fraser Valley Record) The Mission City public school is overcrowded and the teachers are hoping that the school hoard will come to their relief and appoint another teacher. Tn last week's report an error crept in, which we have been asked to correct. The number of pupils in the IV. Division was 32 instead of 22 and in Division V. 43 instead of 2 3. The principal's room the other day had co be re-arranged to avoid the overcrowding. ....The divisions now stand: Div. J., 3!), Div. II. 35; Div! III. 30; Div. IV. 37: Div. V. 44. High school, 40: Total 225. The services of the Domestic Science teacher, Miss Coughlan and Mr. fllingworth are required now for a- bout three days instead of two as at present. j'-f-t the school grow. PREMIER AVILL OPEN FAIR Capt. McKenzie of the Mission- Mai-squi ferry, is away on a short holiday, the first since he took charge of the ferry some years ago. (From the Fraser Valley Record) Premier Oliver will be in Mission City on fair day and open the exhibition. It is altogether likely if it is a nice afternoon that several of Vancouver's prominent citizens will motor out for the opening at 1 p.m. or thereabouts. ii- Pte. Harry Ryder of the first garrison battalion, has received his discharge and left Tuesday morning for the i-Iarrison hatchery to take up his former position. y^. **vy\.'\f< - 'Serf' Every housekeeper realizes that the nice plate of war bread is one of the important items of a well set table as it is the finishing touch to a well pre-' pared meal.
