"fullest readiness to  accept and  not

LONDON, Jan. 18.-rTjhe Persian premier, Mochler Ed-
Dowlch, who had resigned from office, withdrew his resignation after the merchants had threatened to close the bazaars
and other pressure had: been brought to bear, according to
a■Teheran dispatch untier'Sunday's date,/to the London
Timet*. The Shah, who was present at the meeting of tfce
Persian notables Saturday,, announced his intention of remaining in Persia during the national crisis. This, the
cerrespondent thinks, is a definite answer to the persistent
rumors that the Shah intended to abdicate in;favor of his
brother, Valihad, the heir-apparent, and proceed to Europe

Its greatest asaetB,' and particularly
«o where such powers are sttuited in
oloaa proximity to vnluablo natural
resources, as Is tho case in the KJoot.
ena,y district, where nature has been.
Very lavish ln produouig. one of the
greatest mineral districts In Canada
with Its gold,, copper, silver, load,

(here are great areas of timber-lands
which, are at present bolng doyeiop-
«d In the lumber Industry and are
capable of. Immense development ln
tho production of pulp and paper.
The district Is also developing' inlo
one of the great frull dlWKotH of
Canada.
Recent advancement ln the refining of oreB Is largely In the direction of ulootro-ohomicnl reduction of
the ores, ao that now refinors of the
metai are seokinaj out largo water
power centres, aa nn Immense
amount of eleotrlc power Is required In their reduction where largo
amounts of hydrorploctrlo power
must be available at low. costs.
. Amongst the InduBirles that require large amounts of cheap hydroelectric power are those of electric
smelting, of ores, the hydro-chemical
refining of stiver, copper, lead and
zthc; the manufacture of mechanical;
wood pulp nnd paper making; the:
production of nitrates, nitrites, car-'
DUles, aluminum, etc.
Tho question naturally arlBcs:,
What are tho water power possibilities oj the Kelson district?
Nelson In very favorably situated
at the outlet end pf Kootenay lake,
which has a surface area of . -20
square mllos,. and Is navigable* fon
o. distance of 100 miles. From Nelson the Kootenay river flows almost
due west, and Joins tho Columbia,
river nt Brilliant, 24 miles from
Nelson. In this dlatanoo tho liver
hns a fall of S70 feet, of which 265
foot Is ln tho first 12 miles bolow
the city.
The   drainage   area   of   Kootenay
river is 17,700 .square miles, tho larger  portion   of  this  area   having  a
rainfall * exceeding    30    Inches   per
year.     It is largely a rugged moun
tnlnous country, on the higher levels
of which are big glnclal areas. These,
and  the  regulating effect  of  Kootenai' lako, provides a well regulntcd
flow in tho river.

Between Nelson nnd Slocon Junction, In a distance ot 12 miles, thero

Merchant,
What ol Your Stock?
How fine it looked when you
bought it.
How pleased you were at the
thought of the trade you would
attract with it.
And you did.
But, stay! Was the trade as
good as you expeetad?
No! Then what was the reason?
Conditions against it? Maybe,
but the reason goes deeper than
that.
You used good judgment when
you bought and your selling prices
were right. The reason was that
the Public—that is, sufficient
numbers of "him" or "her"—did
not know it.
Your stock had no more attraction to them than that of any other
merchant. So they did not come
to you to buy.
That's all.   No more, no less.
You know very well that if you
could have attracted a sufficient
number of people into your store,
and an average proportion of
them had become purchasers, you
would have sold all of your season's goods.
"Very well," you say, "but how
am I to get the Public into my*
store in the sufficient numbers
that you speak of?"
Advertise!
"But," you answer, "I do advertise."
True enough, but do you put
the same quality of brain into
your advertising that you do into
your buying?
This is not meant to be impertinent. It is said in all seriousness, in the desire* by newspaper
publishers to have their newspapers be of the greatest possible service to you.
In other words, the more care
and the more study you give to
your local newspaper advertising
the less care and the less thought
will you need to give to the setting
of merchandise after season.
Not to use your local newspapers with all the skif and judgment that you can command1 is to
deny yourself the services of the
greatest trade promoter within
the use of man.
The publisher of this paper will
give you the benefit of his advice
on all matters pertaining to the
typographical arrangement of
• your copy and, whenever possible,
assist you in the preparation of it.

Welcome to the Fruitgrowers
"Nelson has the honor today
of welcoming the delegates to
the annual meetings of the British Columbia Fruitgrowers'
association, one of the most
important agricultural bodies in
the province.
Fruitgrowing is a great industry in British Columbia.
Its success is closely interwoven
with the success of the whole
agricultural industry.
By organization the fruitgrowers, have accomplished a
great deal, but still more can
be done toward enabling Uie
business to reap the full rewards to which it is entitled.
The provincial organization has
to its credit a record of accomplishment in which it may take
pride and there is every reason
for believing that the good
work .will be continued and expanded, with the hearty cooperation of the membership,
from year to year.
Nelson is deeply interested
in the success of fruitgrowing,
as well as in other branches of
the greatest of basic industries.
Citizens will watch the deliberations of the delegates with
interest and with a sincere desire that the 1921. convention
Will prove profitable to the industry and that the delegates
wilt enjoy every minute of their
visit to this city.

FlRBt-B33 COOKER PINNlfoS FOR   THE   BUSINESS ■ GIRL   COOK
There are hundreds upon hundreds
of buB.netJfl girls, both, married and unmarried. In this country who must return after office hours to a kitchen
Htov-a and cook dinner. Every timo I
think of thimi, I wlah they could all
have flreless, cookers so that all they
ncftd do Is fiut the <Mn.her into their
"flreless'' ln the morning before start-
hut to business, and take it out at night
when they return home, How much
more Hlmnle that would make things
for   them!
And the best part of It is that thesp
etrls can all havo flreless cookers If
they* want them for- they can make
them, themselves! I have had directions printed for making; a flrcless
cooker out of an old box. and I will
be, glad to send these dir-jotlans to anyone who writes to me, enclosing a
stamped,   self-addressed   envelope.
Tha   following   dinners   are   of   variety which  the business  girl  can  put
Into her tireless cooker 'In the morning   going   to    work,     and   take   out
at 6 o'olock and put on the table without any fuBS "ar bother:
Irish Stew
Gelatine   Mould
Coffee
Put the stew (containing lean beef
cubed, potatoes peeled, carrots and
mi Ions) Into the tireless cooker pall:
put this on the range with water to
cover, and heat until tho water bolls:
then (w)th lid on tightly) put the pall
Into the tireless cooker. It.will continue bolting the better part of tho day,
and If slightly cooled oft by night it
can be easily wormed up again for dinner; at least It is cooked through, and
that is the main thing.     The gelatine
dessert, made in the morning and set
to harden, will  bo -ready for the table
at night without more trouble.     Coffee
can be made In a. short  timo.
Corned Beef
Fried   Potatoes Tomatoes
Minute Tapioca
The beef for corned beef will bo put
Into the tireless oooker pail, covered
with water, brought to a boll on the
range, and then the pall will bo put
into the fljeless cooker (lid tightly
clamped on), to contlrtue boiling the
better nart of the day; warm up at
night If necessary, but ,the meat will
be thoroughly cooked and ready ex-
cent for the warming. The fried potatoes will be made of cold left-over
potatoes and will tnke but.a few m!n
utes to prepare. The tnnloca nuddlng
should be niMdo In ii douhl.i boiler and
will rectulre the full half iiour.^**
To he sure, ono of the flreless cook*
ers^ on the mnrket produced bv manu-
fnctaurers have the Iron dlBCR which are
heated on top of a range and then sus-
nended from the top of the firoless
cooker pall to bake fond with—meat
loaves, for Instance. And these the
home-made flreless cooker cannot haw
unless tho amateur devises some clever
way of suspending a heated soapstone
or niece of Iron from the lid of the
nail (I would be glad to hear of any
such discovery, if one' of my readers
hits upon it; I would like to print It
In this columns. Hut even a homemade flreless' cooker which can only
boll , food Is better than none. And
such little, menus as I have given
above aro not to-be dcsn|ped, are'they?

Wheat Growing In Britain
Though the cultivation of wheat
was stimulated during the war, and
•hewed an Increased acreage of over
.40 per cent in 1018, It ban since fallen back almost to the pre-war level. On tho other hand, oats, barley, turnips and green crops have
shown steady improvements, the. explanation being that wheat has been
controlled and tbe cultivated crops
which were expected u> bring the
higher prices. The Agriculture Bill
however, will stimulate tbe production ot wheat and Uiu world tendency of other foodstuffs to fall ln
price w^lt -remove the special attractions of crops which have competed'

A Budget -That Never Was Born
The rumor that Mr. Winston Churchill may bo the next Chancellor of
the Exchequer lets loose a flood of
remtnisences. Mr.      Churchill
Is forty-six; his father, Lord Randolph Churchill, was only thirty-
seven when he got a grip on the
national purse and began what his
son has described us nothing less
than a complete reconstruction of tho
revenue. -Hardly a single tax was
to bo left untouched. The duty wus
to drop to fourpenco; fourpence was
to bo knocked off the tobacco tax;
the Jncome tax wus to be lowered
from etghtponce to fiveponce. Death
duties and house duties were to bo
regradod and Increased. "AH these
changes," Bays Mr. Winston Chuch-
111 ln the biography of his father,
"were not a mere meddlesome and
vexatlonus shifting of burdens from
ono shoulder to tho other, They
were each and all essential parts in
vast financial revolution." Before Christmas L-ord Randolph
Churchill had resigned offlco, and
the Churchill budget never was
born.—London   Morning   Post.

I havo moro than oneo heard peoplo express, lho opinion that .the life
of n clergyman ls nn easy ono. As
one man expressed It to me, "He has
a soft snap." After nearly forty
years experience as a clergyman I
ant able to contradict Buch a statement and to declare that It Is a
llfo ln which there Is a considerable
amount of physical weariness of the
body due to real physical labor,
thoro aro worries and -spiritual anxieties peculiar to the life of a minister  of  tho  Gospel.
If what I have said abovo fls true
of a clergyman's life In a pariah,
in Canada, it is rather more truo
If posslblo hero in the West Indies.
I know Whnt I am talking about, for

me for performance of my ministerial functions. "Ami you may be

of my dally round of duty. I got
up at 6 am., bad my breakfast over

Morning Prayers, nnd this being a
Thursday ln Advent; Holy Communion
followed the Morning Prayer.
As soon as I returned to the ves-
■try, a ■colored woman with a tremendous volubility, came to make
herself known to mo. From what
I could gather from her gabble, I
learned that sho was begging for
somo financial assistance at this
Christmas season. I promised I
would bring her case before the
ladies* committee, who have such
matters in hand. But this would
not suit her. The vloac. whose
place 1 am temporarily filling, always, so she said, gave hor something himself. So I *ad to do
likewise.
Grateful    Beggars
Thero is ono comfort here, and that
Ls that whereas in Canada a beggar
expects from a quarter to a dollar,
In the West indies, a cent'Is a gilt,

have no Id'ou of how poor these people ore, many  of  them.
After satisfying the begging woman, I hurried off to glvo private
baptism to u Bick baby, and then
wont to the house of oh aged woman to give her private communion.
1 then started to return to the church
and on my way I was dctuinod -by

in tho eclentifln application of artificial watering. In making thla statement, the stupendous work accom*
pll-shed by iho British' onglneers in
Egypt and in ifidla Is neither forgotten or underestimated, but ln tho
United States.not only have wondor-
ful engineering works been carried
out In different parts of the country,
but tho successful application of the
water secured througn thorn has been
advanced to science, their closest
competitors being possibly the In
■habitants of China. In the case of
the ' United Stntes, however, thl«
condition has been arrived at through
following o. lino- of selentlflo principles, whereas in China the present
knowledge la. the result of chance die-
■ eovei-Ics nnd centuries ot experience.
' But no matter how arrived at, the
trnvnd discovery has been made, that
better, more abundant ,and more vnfl
liable crops can bo raised through
the uso.of Irrigation than Is possible
under natural precipitation.

to raise unaer tho natural rainfall
could bo very noticeably "increased,
ln many instances doubled every season; and ln -what little romalne. irrigation would bo a benefit, for -general cropa throe seasons out Of every
flvo, and every year so far as winter
feed stuffs are con-corned, whlcdvwould
mean tho. possibility ot keeping a
very inu.-li hunger head^of stock of
all kinds than wo "now possess,
.Granted that Irrigation Js a,, necessity, the next question Is hew to
secure it.
If the Unltod States government can
eucoessfully coristruc\ drrlgaMon -systems whon oxtonslve tracts of lands
can bo benefited under ono particular
plan, vny cannot tho same •thing- be
dono to good a/lvnntago on our side
of the line?
Community Projects
In cases where the lands requiring
watering are of smaller extent, why.
cannot tho residents club together,
for the purpose of obtaining' it:
and if tho menns'at their dlsposaliaro
itoo limited to allow of a scheme being canted out Irt ^proper form, npply
to the government for some awsltance'
■Who money thus*'Obtained to be returned**' after a reasonable time had
elapsed^ tfb^ro wopld bo nu trouble
about carrying on-^thnt part of the
arrangement. Tho Increased crops
on the- lands treated would not only
advance Ihe general welfare of the
community, but make easily possible
tho repayment of tho cost, principle
and Interest.
Then -comes the Individual farmer
shut off from any opportunity of
securhip? irrigation for his land
through combination with his neighbors from whatever on use It may be.
' In ninny cusps ho could have tho
neoded water from nature's supplies,
through tho 'implication of a llttlo
engineering skill ond manual labor,
tf ho would jhst consider for a llttlo
while whnt a difference it would
make, to his familv.as well na himself.
If tho amount of -"who-lover kind of
producn he happens1 to "make Ids particular line, were doubled, ns ln most
cones it would be through tho employment of nrtlficlnl watering, he would
have such nn Incentive n-a would
speedily   drive  him  Into  action.
In oil tho e.i son above referred'to
extensive, limited and .Individual,
It would bo found that In many In-
stance's water from n higher source
than tho level of tho lands needing
water, "trttlch, of course Is a necessity,
when RTO'Vlti-tlon comes Into piny,
would have to be conyeyed Jn pipes,
flumes or ditches, perhaps all three.
for a very consideruiblo distance.

no doubt looked With contempt on the man who refused

British Promoter Only One to
Deposit Money; French
Government Objects.
NE \VTORK, Jan, 18.—AnnuoHco-
ment that the heavyweight championship bout between Jack
Dem-psoy and George Carpontlor,
European champion* haa beon definitely declared off was made by the-
New  York  Times.
Failure of tho principals to deposit forfeit monoys as was provided In the contracts signed by tho
proinotors. tho. boxers and tholr
managers, was given as tho reaBOu
for   tho   can-collation.
According to the Times, the Information comes a man in close touch
with tho situation, and thede ls on
question  as to Us authority.
Under tho terms of tho contract
for the gout, the promotors collect-
Ivoly agreed to deposit tho sum of
$100,000 as a guarantee of good
faith. This sum was to bo doposltod
with the Central Union Trust company, uu or beforo Nov. 20th, 1&20.
Thu mauugers •of tho respective boxers agreed to deposit $60,000 each,
on   the same  date.
As yet. only ono deposit has been
made, Charles B. Cochrane, tho British promoter, who was largely In-
stmmontul in effecting the match,
having drawn up his share of the
monoy, amounting to $33.333.;)3. beforo returning to England. Manager
Dcschahips, on behalf of CarpctiUcr,
posted a chock on his return to
Fiance bul the money has never
arrived here, tho French government
objected to tho withdrawal of such
a largo sum of monoy from the
country iu view of tha financial
stringency. No doposii has over beon
made by Manager Reams on behalf   of  Dcmpscy.
While tho falluro to adhere to
tho deposit stipulations of tho contract are tho nllogcd compelling
rorceB iu dictating an abandonment
of tho bout, other elements .notably
tiho recent action of tho natloanl
boxing association in adopting a
uiumimuin prlco of $16 a scat for
iu championship contest aro believed
tu have entered Into the situation.

The timber resources of the West Kootenay ■ are nothing
less than immense. With an average'annual precipitation of
30 inches, growth is rapid, and forest fires, tend to a minimum,:
these, factors being responsible for the well forested condition
of this section. -■ <■   : - ' ■ ■: I■••'*' "   '■■■'•■'
If'we take the total acreage between the watershed on the]
east Side Of Kootenay lake and the watershed on the west side
of the Arrow lakes, including the Upper Columbia- river-valley,
we get a total of 10.000,000 acres. Deducting from this the
water, area,-the logged off and cleared land, the' burned, *nd the
sparsely timbered areas, we still have a timbered area of
6,500;000:acres. ■,;>■■
■As this includes the heavy timbered areas, on a basis of 15
cords to the acre, we have 97,500,000 cords.
Classifying 65 per cent of this timber as suitable for pulp,
we have 63,375,000 cords of pulj* timber. This would ensure a
'00-ton a day pulp mill a supply for 220 years. '.'■"*•■•
i From the standpoint of raw material, the West Kootenay
hould be an ideal location for ilarge industries depending on
forest wealth. Enormous waterpowers, aro available adjacent
to Nelson, and there are excellent waterways for assembling
the timber.
At this time, when the demand for pulp and paper exceeds
the .supply, to such an extent that capitalists, are searching.,
for possible locations, and.having.in.vieW'all the factors in -the]
situation, we are of the deliberate opinion that Nelson offers
better opportunities than are afforded by any other point; in
the Kootenay, as a site for pulp and ppper manufacture,'situated
as it is, close to the great falls of .the Kootenay river, where
almost unlimited water-power is available, and where the raw
material can be assembled at a minimum cost, with the added
advantage that two railway systems, the C. P. R. and the Great
Northern, are available to transport the finished product.
