Kino Fruit Country With ban Areas ol Timber. The Kootenay valley Is un olovutci region, most of tlie nren having nn elevation of from 1.500 tn a.r.nti feet above sen level. The valley of the Kooteuay ex tonds in a northerly direction Iroi the international boundary to win derniere, a distance of about Ul miles, with a soil ho fertile thu everything grows luxiirieutly, am. where many happy homes are found stock raising i* carried ou to a considerable extent and is a profitn bio business. The mountain Hides uiul beticlie. afford splendid grazing in the Bum mer, ami the soil is so productlvi that hay in abundance for wintc feeding is to be had for the cutting The mountain sides are heavily timbered with pine, taiimrae and tir, whicli with the advent of the Kootenay Central Railway will make lumbering a prominent industry. DurinK the pust year large tructs uf timber has been secured by capitalists from the government, nlso Iron) the (.'anadian Pttcitic Railway Company, with a view of producing lumber on a large scale as soon us the necessary transportation is afforded by the construction of a railway through the valley. There is an unlimited supply of water, and there is enough water power going to waste to supply power to every mine ami lumbering camp in the district, witli ample power for ull purposes. All kinds of vegetables and grain grow in abundance, and the mines furnish u constantly increasing mar ket for produce of all kinds, As tine and well flavored apples, and small fruits as can be found in British Columbia are ruised in tin Kootenuy valley. The soil and climate being just suited for apples and kindred fruits. The Frost Investment Co., hnve secured 1200 acres of tine fruit lands near Wasa, which has heen subdivided into ten acre lots. Tlie coinpuny have also secured a water right on Wasa creek, and will this summer construct an irrigation ditch, which will have a capacity sufficient to irrigate the entire 1200 acres. The climate for ten months in the year is unexcelled. The summer is long and pleasant. It is warm without being hot, and is always healthy and invigorating. The winters are not rigorous, and no deep snowfall, and there is no freezing blizzards like those of Alberta and Manitoba. stratum the province has learned to •xpert surpluses, und will not he llBUppolnted so loug us the present nlnistors aro ill power.

Captain Tatlow makes his points so clearly and succinctly that it is needless to attempt a surnmury of them, and therefore, for particulars of what he said, we refer our readers to the speech itseli 8peaking of it generally, it must be pronounced highly satisfactory. He was able to congratulate tbe province upon its expanding revenue and to show that this is likely to be permanent. He was in a position to draw a very interesting picture of tbe conditions of provincial industries and business generally and to mention matters which are full of promise for the future. In Captain Tatlow tbe province is very fortunate in possessing n minister who aims at results, and is able tu accomplish them. As the years go on his duties become more onerous because the problems to be dealt with become more serious and the sums involved larger, but he dis* plays an aptitude for his tusk that has rarely been equalled and never been surpassed by nuy one who has held his portfolio. He exhibits n devotion to his work that is worthy of the highest praise. His industry, his fairness, and his grasp of the de tails of tlie provincial li nances are readily conceded by all, und by mine more so than by his political opponents, The province is very much to be congratulated upon the showing which the Finance Minister was able to make. It spoke volumes for tin1 capable manner in which the affairs of the country have been curried on. The contrast between conditions us they were when the present administration took ollice is remarkable, Then the province was financially embarrassed and the banks were pressing it. Now it. has an ovor (lowing treasury and is able uot only to payoff its debts as they mature but to retire loans in advance of maturity, aud yet there is plenty of money for necessnry public works. Captain Tetlow's remarks in regard to business conditions und the progress of the province generally make interesting reading nt a time when in so many parts of the continent doubt and uncertainty prevail. The budget speech ought to have an excellent effect in a business way. It will undoubtedly greatly straighten tbe government in the confidence of tbe country. METHODIST CHURCH .MARCH 1.

This game, was fast from the start, and players on both teams did good work The Maple Leaf's were off in shooting, but for this the game might liuve resulted in their favor. The Bunks won, the score being 12 to 8. Friday's game between the Athletics and Mens Own was the last scheduled game, but there nre five more games besides this, including one postponed game between the Maple Leaf aud the Men's Own, two friendly games between the Athletics, Maple Leaf, and .Men's Own, and the protested games between the Maple Leaf, and Banks, and the Maple Leaf and Athletic.

Finance Minister Tat low's budget, speech will be received with general gratification. Reduction of the public debt out of surplus revenue must. have tho effect of improving tho credit of the province, und the almost certain prospect or continued surpluses amply justifies the under taking of new public Works for dev elopmont which in turn will cause turthor increase in the revenue. The era of continuous deficits, with new loans to pay maturing debts, which was tbo lot of British Columbia for many years before tbe advent of the McBride government, Is a thing of the pant. Under Conservative ndmin Politicians concede that nearly the entire west will go Conservative tu the coining Dominion elections. The Liberals can send their campaign literature through the mulls without imying postage. This is a great cinch over the Tory Opposi tiou. These days are cool and pleasant, but will be considered "Bed Hoi" when compared with the reception that awaits the "Dig Seven" of to the people of this province tor re save you money lection. i Patmoro Bros. bridge last Saturday on business.
