Mr. Campbell believed that toward
tbe end of 1921 great progress in
establishing healthy and economically sound business -broughout tbe
country may be looked for.
Speaking of unemployment, Mr.
Campbell believed thii^in the Kootenay districts tbe situation would be
greatly relieved witb lesumplion of
mining operationse. Unemployment
waa fairly general ut the present
time, be said, but the situation was
not at all serious.  He incidentally

of thc county court, this week.
There  were eight   ballots
without the official  mark rejected for Henniger, and   ten
in the category were rejected
for McKie.
Five    ballots   which   had
been counted for Henniger at
the final count were disallowed by the judge   for want of
want of the official mark, and
five were rejected for  McKie
for the same reason.
On account of other marks

judge.    Five  ballots of the

McKie.
Judge Brown's decision was
that  Mr.   Henniger had  received more votes  than Mr.
Kie.
The   present standing is:
Henniger, 390; McKie,  384,
giving Mr. Henniger a majority of 6.
At the last moment   this

to appeal from the decision

THE GRANBY
A return next year to conditions
tbat will enable mining operations
in British Columbia to be carried
on witb profitable results, is the
prediction of Mr. Lome Campbell,
president of Ihe Kootenay Ligbt,
Heat & Power Company.
^Referring to mineral development
Mr. Campbell alluded principally to
gold, tbe chief product of tbe Rossland camp. Dm ing tbe period of
inflation, be said, gold was the only
indispensable commodity among
minerials wbicb could not command
an increase in price owing to tbe
"standardizing" tbrough internal
agreements. Gold producers however
were forced to pay higher wages,
higher prices for the materials of
production and to meet other greatly
increased overhead expenses. Tbe
result was that they had to close
and to remain at a standstill unti
in a position to operate at less expense.
Tbe passing of the mushroom industries and of those businesses
built up upon tbe effects and causes
of the war will give legitimate businesses a chance to carry on upon a
sound business basis, continued Mr.
Camybell. Peace   time conditions
• From Nelson to Vancouver on
horseback-, a distance of about 4(15
miles, a great -portion of which was
accomplished over roads in ninny
places dangerous and almost impassable, was performet recently by Mr.
V. Hayes, and an interes ing account
bas been given by bim of the trip,
Yhtf journey took 13 pays and in
eluded one or two stops and a wide
detour south of the line, tbree days
during which tbe horse was fed on
hay only, and. through weather a
great part of the distance that was
auytbing but suitable for tbat kind
of travelling. Tbe horse, by the way,
is owned by Mr. lt,'i. McLeod of
Vancouver, and io bis account Mr.
Hayes does not forget to give praise
to tbe little animal for the splendid
manner in wbicb it beld up on tbe
journey, more especially that portion
of tbe trip accomplished without any
thing more sustaining than hay.
From Nelson Mr. Hayes journeyed
to Castlegar, wbere he remained for
first night, and the next day made
Trail, where he had planned to spend
a day. At Trail rain was encountered
and from tben on it rained most of
the time. Leaving Trail Air. Hayes
journeyed to Rossland, from which
point, owing to the state of the roads
be decided to ship most of bis baggage to Princeton, and thus made
travelling much easier for bis horse.
One of the first difficulties experienced by Mr. Hayes was when his
horse, shortly after leaving Nelson,
went slightly lame. In view of the
fact tbat tbe borse was carrying besides its rider a heavy stock saddle,
40 pounds of baggage and a beavy
Hudson's Bay blanket, tbe situation
took on a serious aspect, but fortunately tbis lameness disappeared
later on.
At Patterson Mr. Hayes crossed the
line and pushed on to Velvet, and
from tbere followed tbe Cascade pole
line, whicb, Mr. Hayes remarks, was
one of the best parts of tbe trip, and
eventually reached Cascade, where
Sunday was spent and tbe borse given
a day to recover from'its lameness,
wbich had continued from the time
Nelson was left behind.
Leaving there on Monday morning
more rain met the traveller, and alf
tbough he had planned to make

Keremeos.—The Great Northern
railway company has given notice
that trains No. 396 and 397 will on
Monday, December 20, r*vert to the
schedule which was in effect before
September 10, namely the northbound tiain will leave Oroville at
7.00 a, na. and arrive at Princeton at
11.35 a. as. on Mondays, Wednesday and Fridays. Southbound trains
will leave Priooetja-at 1.30 p.m.
aud arrive at Oroville C 00 p. m. on
the same d ly.
This change in the schedule effuctg
the district very materially, particularly in regard to mail service. The
matter has been discussed among
the various business men and it was
decided to call a special meeting of
tbe Board of Trade on December 15
to consider the matter.
Another matter which will be for
discussion at that metting was thai
of a general cleaning up of the town
witha view to preventing an outbreak of any epidemic cansed by
careless disposition of vegetable,
etc., and to secure general fire protection by getting rid of accumulated
combustible rubbish.
Vnnucouver, Jan. 1.—Major Mc-
Laurin, superintendent of the air sta-
tiou at Jericho Beach, lias been advised that the provincial government
will include a vote of 120,000 in the

[KXl'KHIMOTAL farms noth]
With the exception of apples,
grapes and pears there are no fruits
of our own production which can be
called winter fruits, but of tbese
three sorts every householder may
have an abundant supply in good
condition until at least the middle
of winter.
Three prime requisites are necessary lo keep in mind when laying in
a supply of iruit /or winter. The
first is • the- selection of the proper
variety or varieties; the second is the
selection of only firm fruits, free
from bruises and disease or insect
injury; and the third is proper condition of storage.
With regard to the fruit, the
following is a list of winter varieties
of apples, pears and grapes which,
when free from .disease and injury
and stored under proper conditions,
will keep anywhere from January
up to May.
Well known wenter varieties, of
apples of good quality:
Mclntocb, November to January.
Fameuse, October to January 1st.
Rhode Island Greening, December
to February.
King of Tompkins, November to
February.
Wagener, November to February.
Northern Spy, January to May.
Golden Russet, January to May.
The above varieties are all gond
and cover the entire winter season
if proper selection is made.
Among pears the  following   are
desirable for winter use:
Josephine, midwinter.
Kieffer    (ratber   poor    vuality*)
October to January,
Lawrence, December.
Winter Nelis, midwinter.
Grapes—Normally the grape is not
a winter fruit,   uut,   stored  under
good conditions,  the few  varieties
mentioned bere may be successfully
kopt until the last of February,
Herbert, .Barry, JVergennes,  Aga-
warn, Lindley.
Storing.—In the storage of all
fruits a cold, moderately moist room
is necessary. Fruits stored in a dry,
warm seller will not keep. Storing at
as near freezing as possible, without
allowing the tempe/ature to drop
to 32 deg. F., will insure the maximum time for the retention of tbe
quality of ths product.
By wrapping apples and pears in
paper and then placing in boxes
which are covered the juiceness and
firmness of tbe fruit is easier to retain. This is especially true of the
Golden Russee, one of the best keeping apples but one to shrivel if kept
in any place but a cold, moist celler.
One of the London papers, tb
Daily Chronicle publishes an inter I
view with Professor Steinach, the
Viennese biologist who claims to be
able, by a simple operation, to restore
the vigor and vitality of youth to
jaded and worn-out systems.
"The idea was no sudden inspiration," the professor said,"but represented the accumulated experience
of long years of experiments in
biology."
The first experiments were tried
on rats, and Professor Steinbach
showed the interviewer some re-
markablo photographs of old,, de
crepit rats become spry and frisky
and horribly rodent again after being operated ou. Then came tbe
experiment on human beings, and
again Professor Steinbach produced
photographs of remarkable transformation, sunken cheeks raised,
muscle hollows refilled and a general
atr of alertness and joy of life restored to face and figure.
''And what about the operations
Is it dangerous and ho*v Jong does
it require?" the questioner asked,
"It is as simple an operation as
one could desire," replied Professor
Steinbach. "For men, a local anesthetic is used; foi women, X-Rays.
The operation lasts about fifteen
mintees, and thereafter the person
operated upon must stay in bed for
three drys. Some little care is required for a short time afterwards, but
in about a week one is perfectly fit
again.
"And how long do the'effects of
your operatin last?" was my next
query. "Are you really prolonging
life?"
"I can accomplish no miracles."
answered Profeffor Steinbach. "Al
I undertake to do is not to prolong
life, but to prolong youth, its capacity and its joy. My-process has been*
too short a time in being to allow of
definite answer to your question,
but of the human cases ou wbich it
has been tried, beginning two years
ago, none has heen a failure, and al
are still enjoying the full benefits.
"Of course much depends upon
the state of tho patient. If the body
is quite worn ont, I can do nothing;
if still suceptiblo to tbe operation,
I belive I can restore the qualities
of youth for a period of anything
from five to twenty years, dependent in each case upon the state of
the patient."
Several operations, the correspondent says, have taken place in tbe
c ty hospitals, others at various sani-
toriums, but a proper-equipped institute will bo required if all cases
are to he dealt with. Professor Steinbach said that several people had
been interested financially in his
discovery and that the flotation of
a company for its exploitation is
being negotiated.
A coast report says it ia rumored
that the Canadian Pacfic Railway
company is about to acquire the hold"
ings of the Granby Mining, Smelting
ifc Power company. The holdings of
the company include the great mines
and smelter with other extensive
plants at Anyox, the coal holdings of
the Granby concern at Cassidy, the
smelter in this eity, and the mines at
Phoenix, It has been known for the
past few months, engineers of the
Consolidated company at Trail, a con-
earn in which the C.P.R, interest il
paramount, have been at Anyox investigating the plaut there.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 7, H)21
George H. Hull seems to be the only available mayoralty candidate this year, at least he
is the only one who has announced himself,
or whose name has been mentioned in connection with the office so far. He will probably
be elected by acclamation and to most of the
ratepayers will likely make an acceptable
officer. While he is nQt our first choice for
the office, we shall not break our neck trying
to bring out opposition candidate, but will
allow events to take their natural course. Our
principal objection to Mr. Hull is, that he is
too much under the influence of a man in
whose judgment we have no confidence.
In the West ward Aid. McDonald and Aid.
Love have, it is said, announced themselves
for re-election. We have no decided objections
to Aid. McDonald's candidacy, but there are
many good reasons why Aid. Love has served
the   city  long enough.   As chairman of the
cemetery committee he has got the city burial
grounds into such a state that he himself can
not refer to them except in terms of derision.
As chairman of the parks committee his chief
accomplishment seems to be the accumulation
ot piles of brush and slashing on nearly all of
the vacant space in what is known as the city
park.   As chairman of the health and relief
committee his blundering, last summer, in or
dering a ratepayer ott his own property and
theu using the land as a nuisance grounds,
cost the city about $100 in cash and damages.
As an alderman of the city he can not refrain
from trafficking with the corporation. He has
done this for three or four years now—in the
couucil and school board—and no doubt   by
this   time he thinks the action is perfectly
legal.   He  was elected last year by playing
the "baby act" for sympathy votes.   It is now
time for a change.
taken: "It is rumored tbere is to be another
recount. Most of the supporters of Mr. McKie, of whom I am one, decidedly resent the
interference of coast petty politicians into our
local offairs. And when Mr. Henniger was
declared elected, and the Oliver government
returned, tho result was satisfactory to mc
even as a supporter of Mr. McKie—aud if the
petty coast iuterferers really want an emphatic
decision, just let them agree to a by-election
and we will g ve it to them in no uncertain
manner. Grand Forks has had enough bad
luck with her legislative representatives in tho
past without putting in an opposition member
—and the majority for Henniger is certainly
small enough to show a 60-50 split of the
votes of the riding—and we want no opposition member opposing onr interests by a few
majority votes. We want for our constituency all the advantages a government representative will bring us—and it just happens
that Oliver instead of Bowser got in. If Bowser were returned the same argument in favor
of McKie would apply."
Mica and Its Uses
Let no man who has any intention of riming for civic honors abandon the idea because
a combination of men may be endeavoring
to arrange an election by acclamation. Don't
let the specious argument that an acclamation
council will save the city the cost as an elec"
tion influence you. The expenses of tho election have already been incurred. The cost of
takiug the poll is a very small item.
It is important that police cormriissioucrs
are elected who will have courage to enforce
the laws. A few months more of the present
lax method of regulating thc liquor traffic, and
The Sun will become the most rabid bone-dry
advocate in the province.
At this late day any comment upon the late
election may seem like an impertinancc on
our part. But the false statement that, previous to the counting of the absentee vote, Mr.
McKie had a lead of 5 votes over Mr. Henniger, has been so persistently c'rculated by the
local Windstorm and by the other opposition
newspapers of tho province, that a correction
is necessary in order to show that the Liberal
canidate's final majority is perfectly natural.
After the count on the night of December 1st
Mr.  MeKie had a majority of F>, but on the
Mica is one of the most useful minerals, the
production and distribution of which is little
known. Of the many varieties, only three are
of commercial importance, and of these but
two are available in any quantity—the mus-
covite, or white mica, and the phlogopite, an
amber mica. The latter is the most important
of the Canadian micas.
India is the largest producer of mica, providing over 50 per cent of the world.s supply.
Canada produces about 25 per cent, and the
United States and other countries the remainder.
In Canada, mica occurs pretty generally.
Tho most productive areas are situated along
the lower St. Lawrence below Quebec, north
of the Ottawa near Mattawa, and in the
township of Burgess in Leeds county, Lanark
in Lanark county, and Loughborough in Fron-
tenac county, also in a few area in British Columbia. The production of 1919 was valued at
$27?,30-5.
Mica mining is attended with many difficulties. For successful exploitation is is essential
that the miners be experienced in the mining
of this materials, and be familiar with the special conditions and problems it presents. Many
good mica deposits have been abandoned on
account of the lack of experience of the operators.
The general run of mine mica is of a small
size. A very small percentage produces sheets
of 4x6 inch surface, while fully 50 per cent
will cut to 1x3 sheets only. Fortunately, a
process of cementing tho small sheets
enables the building up of larger surfaces.
This product is known as "micanite" oj "mica
board," and is most used in the electrical industry for insulation. Mica is largely used in
the manufacture of boiler and steam pipe coving, its insulating properties exceeding by far
that of any other known substance. Comparative tests have demonstrated that the loss of
heat from bare pipes has been reduced by 90
per cent when the pipes wero onclosed in mica
covering.
Owing to its resistance to shock, mica is
used for spectacles or goggles worn by workmen in industries where flying chips or sparks
endanger the eyes, and in observing processes
of melting and fusing in furnaces. Thc small
pieces of mica, formerly wasted, are used for
various purposes. When ground^fine in oil,
mica forms a valuable lubricant, especially for
shafting or journal boxes on locomotives or
railway cars. Ground mica, when mixed with
a flux, is also used in giving to wallpaper and
other substances a silvery effect.
So many uses are being found for mica that
what was formerly an industry with a very
large proportion of waste, is now one in which

The "Land oi the Golden Grain'
is a name well suited to the Province of Saskatchewan, the middle
of the three prairie province of Canada, for grain growing has been
the chief occupation of its inhabitants since the earliest day* of ita
settlement. So good has Men the
quality and so heavy the yields of
the wheat and other grains grown
in Saskatchewan, that whenever the
firovince was spoken about it was
n association with grain, and many
people thought, and a large proportion of them, no doubt, still think
that grain growing was and ls the
only branch of farming carried on in
this rich province. Probably, a
very large number of people who
now know something about Saskatchewan would never have heard
of this province but for the success
of Seager Wheeler, the "Wheat Wizard," firat in winning, at the Madison Square Gardens, New York, in
1911, the thousand dollars in gold
for the best hundred pounds of
wheat grown on the American continent, and subsequent winnings of
Mr. Wheeler and other Saskatchewan farmers at Tulsa, Oklahoma,
Wichita, Kansas, El Paso, Texas,
Peoria, Illinois, Kansas City, Mo.,
Chicago, and other places.
But experience of the last few
years has shown that Saskatchewan
farmers can and do raise other
things than grain. Sheep, horses
and cattle are all steadily increasing
in numbers on the Saskatchewan
farms, and evidence that these, too,
are, like the grain, of a superior
quality is forthcoming in the success of the animals from this province exhibited at the International
Stock Show at Chicago this year.
A few years ago there #.vere
scarcely any sheep in Saskatchewan,
but many of the early settlers soon
recognized that the province as regards climate, feed and water was
well auited to sheep, and they be-
S,n to keep a few on their farme.
e numbers have steadily increased
year by year until now between 160,-
000 and 200,000 sheep are owned by
farmers in Saskatchewan, and this
year approximately 760,000 pounds
of wool were produced.
But the raising of sheep has not
advanced so much bs the raising of
horses. The provincial livestock
commissioner claims that Saskatchewan is now the leading horse breeding province In thc Dominion of
Canada. The heavy draft horse with
Percheron, Clydesdale or Belgian
blood in him, Is the kind of animal
to which breeders here are devoting
their attention, and farmers need not
go out of the province to sell at
satisfactory prices all such horses
they can rais>\ The tractor has not
displaced horses on the Saskatchewan farms nor is it likely to do so
now. Most farmers have tried both,
or have seen both tried, and have
decided in favor of the horse. In
1919 there weie more than a million
horses in Saskatchewan, and the
number has steadily increased since.
Many of these horses are, perhaps,
on the light side, but the light
horses are being rapidly displaced
by the heavier animals. The young
draft horse weighing about 1,600
pounds or more is what most of the
farmers in Saskatchewan are raising, and the demand for horses of
this type is far ahead of the supply.
The quality of the horses that are
being bred in Saskatchewan is exemplified by the successes at the
International Show this year. The
champion Clydesdale was a Saskatchewan horse, "Wee Donald,"
bred on the farm of L. Weaver, near
Lloydminster, and the first prize
stallion Belgian foal "Charles Deros-
eke" is owned by Coe Brothers .-.nd
was bred on their farm near Regina.
Last year the champion Belgian waa
a hone owned by Paul Eupp, wh*
on his farm at Lampman, in tht
sooth of the province, has probabv
the finest herd of Belgian horses ok
the continent.
Like the horse and sheep Indue
tries the cattle industry of 8a*»
katchewan has made substantial vrt>
gress during thc last few years. Th*
provincial livestock commissioner e»
timates that thero nre now 100,000
more cattle In thc province than
thore wcro a year ago. This mark*
tho ratio of increase Hint hns been
going on from year to year, ond th*
end is not yet, for there is still room
for more cattle in thc province than
there arc at pn -cnt. In 1919 th*
total was 1,8*.9.6 I head, of which
374,062 were milk cows. The pro*
vlnclal government is devoting much
attention to the livestock industry,
and buys cattle at the lending markets selling them at cost to farmer*
on easy payments. The time in within the memory of many of thc resi»
dents of thc province when the only
milk they ever got was tho con-
densed variety, and -ivhen their butter had also to ba imported. Not
many yenrs ago a beginning waa
made with dairying. The province
soon produced more b-.itter than waa
required .o supply its ov.-n needs and
had some to spare. During the last
few yenrs there hns been n surplus
for cxr-oi;t to Grent Britain, tha
United Stntes, tho Pacific Coast
points of Canada, nnd cities in Kasfc
em Canada. Last year one hundred
and fo-.;r carloads, or 8 (il.2,000
pounds of the highest <; -lity of
cream;--:.' but.cr left th; ; -o.-ince,
while this year lhe total export bids
fair to cvceecl 7,C0Q,Q0.0 pounds.
The siiic- lines of .this grain growing province hnva, therefore, already
assumed a posiii* . r; "Onsid^rablo
importance and are becoming increasingly import:. . -j year. THE   SUN,   GRAND   FORKS,   B. C.

Popcorn
"If every home would keep a sup*
ply of popcorn and a popper convenient," says Good Health, "fewer
nickels would ba spent for lens
wholesome kuickknacks and more
enjoyable evenings would be spent
around the family hearth." These
suggestions are made to insure suc-
ci-ssful results: Good corn and'a
hot lire; a small quantity of corn in
the popper; popper to be held high
bo tbat tbe corn will not scorch, thus
inuring whiteness; a stove lid to be
placid between the popper and the
ejflame to keep thc corn Irom scorch
ing; a degree of heat th»,t will make
the corn begin to pop in I 1-3 minutes. One pint of unpupped corn
sbould give fifteen tc. twenty pinle
of popped corn, it is stated.
There was one time in the life of
Bdffalo Bill when it almost became
necessary for hiiu to shoot his wife,
aud, as much as he loved her, he was
prepared to do it. They had been riding homeward over tho plans together
when a band of hostile Indians came
upon them. The account of the pur
suit, which his widow, ,Mrs. L. F.
Cody, tells in herreniini.sce.nces pf the
great plainsman, makes a thrilling
and dramatic adventure.
"Injuns! Take these reins."
lirigham was galloping now iu harness, with the buggy swaying and careening behind as he rushed down the
hill and on toward the winding road
beyond. Will shifted on his seat and
raised himself ou one knee I felt his
elbow bump against me and knew that
he was reaching forhis revolver. Then
he bent over and kissed meon the
cheek.
"Lou," he said, "I want you to
know that I love you better than any
thing else in the world? That's why
I may have to do something that—"
I looked up hurriedly. Something
had tooched my head. It was Will's
revolver, and he was holding it pointed straight at my temple. I screamed.
"Will! Will!"
My husband looked down at me.
His face suddenly appeared to be old
and lined and hard.
"They've got rifles," he said shortly. "I've only got this revolver. They
cau outdistance me. I want to be
ready—that that if they get me I can
pull the trigger before I fall. It's better for a woman to be dead, Lou—
than to be in their hands."
The breath seemed to have left my
body. I w ran ted to scream, to laugh,
sing, anyUiing but to realii* that at]
my side my husband was nerving him
self to lire the bullet thut would kill
his own wifo—rather than allow her
to fall into the hands of the pursuing
enemy. On and on we went, with
the buggy rolling und rocking, dropping into the hollows and gullies of
tho road, then bounding outegain, ns
fuithful old Brigham plunged on.
Above me I heard Will tulking to
himself, as if striving for courage to
hold to his resolve. With ail the
strength I hud, I placed the reins into
one hand, then with the free one
reached outward. I touched Will's
arm. Then I felt his left hand, icy
cold, close over mine.
We sped onward—a quarter of a
mile—a half mile. Then from the distance came a faint, thudding sound.
Will bent close to me.
"Remember, Lou," he said, again,
"if the worst comes—it waa because
I loved you."
I pressed his right hand tight, and
the rocking, leaping journey con*
tinued. Alternate fever and chilling
cold were chasing through my veins.
My teeth were chattering, my whole
being was aquiver. On and on we
went, while the thudding souuds
from the distunce seemed to grow
nearer. Then suddenly I felt Will
turn in tho buggy. I saw him raise
his revolver and firn straight into the
air. He raised his arms and
uhouted,
"Hurry, Lou!" he boomed, "A little more, and we're aro safe! Hurry—
hurry!"
Again the whip cut through thc air.
Then far ahead I saw the forms of
men, ur.ging thoir horses onward.
"It's some of the boys!" Will
culled to me. "I asked them to ride
out ulong the roal if we didn't got
back on time!"1 \
The forms came closer. Cody waved
and shouted to them and pointed to
the distance. A clattering rush, and
tfiey had passed us—on toward the
hills and the place where a pursuing
bund of Indians now would become a
ileeing, scattering group of fugitives.
Wenkly I sank forward.   Dully I felt
seats are dirty, Eric—keep off them!
If you bite the finger of your glove
again, Molly, I shall take you straight
home!" *
It was like a never ending gramophone record on good behavior, and
Aunt Mary never seemed to tire. At
last the liltle party paused before a
cage, and Aunt Mary consulted her
catalogue.
"Tbis, children," she announced,
"is an anteater."
Eric looked cautiously round as
he whispered to Molly,'Can't we
push ber in?"
A Diligent Novice
Father returned from his first
driving lesson boasting of his easy
mastery of the new car. To please,
him, several of his family consented
to ride with him and things went well
until a car coming up behind them
honked its horn.
The startled driver jerked his
wheel to the right, running down a
steep bank, then to the left, heading
into a fence, and to the right again,
luckily bringing up in the road.
"Dad, what on earth are you
trying to do ?" demanded his breath-
ess son.
"Why. son," replied the new
driver calmly, "I was just practicing
turning out for teams."
