"'The motion proposed by S. W. Defoe and seconded "by "W. G. Baskin, reads: '"Whereas Hon. 3D. D. Barrow, provincial minister of agriculture, in recent public addresses has drawn attention to the need for the establishment of a marketing system for farm products that would ensure producers a living and a reasonable return, on their investments, and "Whereas the minister has stated that, the low return farmers are receiving for produce makes it inadvisable to place additional settlers on the lands in British Columbia, and, y "���������Whereas agriculture stands second in pol,nt of productive value amongst the basic industries^ off the province, and, -* "Whereas many millions of money invested by the government and municipalities in Irrigation systems and reclamation projects and by private individuals in lands, orchards and equipment, are imperilled by existing unsatisfactory marketing methods, we, the fruitgrowers of the Pentlcton district approve of the announcement made by the minister that he proposes to- ask the Provincial Legislature to enact a law dealing with marketing, to be framed with the purpose of assuring a greater degree of stabilizing of prices, and more orderly marketing of the various kinds of farm products through, one controlling body. "And be it further resolved: "That whereas legislation framed with the purpose of compelling all growers to ship their products through one co-operative selling organization would be certain to meet with strong opposition, both on tho part of growers and members of the Legislature and would, In all likelihood, be tested In the courts on tho score of lack of Jurisdiction of the legislature, to *.ho groat tliaturbanco of any branch of agriculture affected, and, "Whereas all but approximately 10 per cent, of the fruit marketed during the present selling season has been sold through the co-operatlvo efforts of existing selling agencies, co-opom- tive and Independent, and, "Whereas, a largo majority of both grower������ and celling ugoncies, as well an t.hn provincial frnlt enmmlfiflionor for tho prairie provinces and prairie dealers aro of. the opinion that control of tho 10 por cent, of uncontrolled fruit would go a long way towards t3to solution of our present difficulties, wo are ot tho opinion tlu������t legislation to bo submitted to the legislature should make provision for tho creation of a board of control, or committee of direction, on whlnh nil welling agencies , WGU.M b������ C0314P������,!������Cd Ul lUVV<������ ir'ipKltfoiU- pulsory eo-opemtloii after all but, In- tation, such body to be governed Siy ������������������tiTid, a wyBtcm of price fixing by a regulations providing severe- ponnllsa* roprom-mlatlvo committee In every lino | tlon ot any of Its members failing to of production which chooses to adopt obrsorva Its decisions and ruling, both well developed methods of ���������shipping and packing;* the excellent Tepiitation built up for itSj product are factors which make success within reach of the Associated. : Success will come not by eliminating competition but by fostering competition; not by controlling the growers by long-term contracts but by enabling the growers to control tltsSr' business as they rightfully should by not placing themselves or their product under contract to anyone.

Dean Swift makes the king of Brobdingnag g;Lve utteraii.ee to the opinion that whoever couldsmake two ears of corn or two blades' of grass to grow upon a spot of ground where only one grew before, would deserve better of mankind and do more essential service to bis country than the whole race of politicians put together. Certain it is that while many politicians have done an immense amount of good in this world, many others have done incalculable harm, but the experi-" menters and scientists who have carried Gut the dictum of Dean Swift's tBiaginerv king have conferred nothing but good upon mankind. In April last the death occurred of Luther Durban!:, of California, popularly known as the plaut- wizard, at the ripe old age of 77 years. Mr. Burbanls devoted his life to the breeding of plants, and the results of his remark able experiments in the development of fiowersa fruits and plants of all kinds are too well known to require more telling. He gave added size and beauty to flowersi and. developed many new types; lie increased Use size, and flavor of many fruits; he increased the productive power of many plants and trees many times over. He thus added not only to the beauty of the world, but to.the rEruit grower, the wealth of the world, and the ..health or; people generally. Canada, too, has its "plant wizard, in the person of Di\ Saunders; the creator of Marquis wheat. About twenty-five years ago Br. Saunders, after^long a-ficfi paii!staking experiments, succeeded in er-os-siug a kernel of wheat froKi the shores of the Baltic with another kernel of wheat Crpm the foothiiis of the Himalayas and thereby ereuied a new type which produced a larger yield per acre, made a whiter flour, and ripened in less time and, thus avoided damage from, frost. This new wheat was -rui-rned ;.Maroittisi';-tmd;;'������rpm' the one Kernel of only about twenty-five years ago. 'there is now harvested around ���������four hundred million bushels annually. Ur. Saunders" work has meant-hundreds of millions of dollars to Canada within the life of the present generation. Western Canada can also boast of its experimenters through -whose efforts several blades ot grass, or wheat, have been made to grow -sphere only one grew before. The name of Seager Wheeler is a. household word in the farm hontes of this country. He has .shown how the finest wheat -In the world, the wheat which year-after, .year captured the world's ...-first prize, can be grown. He ha.s demonstrated, the methods to be followed, and Isas proven how profitable good farming and proper cultivation and seed selection is as compared -with careless and -indifferent cultivation., the 'use of poor seed arid poor farming in general. Seager Wheeler Is now engaged in ttemonstrating that apples,"pears,;flunks and, other fruits can be successfully f*^own oa the prairies of Western-Canada. : Politicians have a work of importance Ho do for the country, and in the doing of it honestly, faithfully, and well they-are deserving of all honor ;and loyal support^ but men like Burbanfc, Saunders, Wheeler, and others whose names are not so well known but who are quietly raising, the standai-d of production, are likewise deserving of all. the honor their fellow citizens can bestow upon them. They are d.c.ing a work for mankind which neither politicians, nor any other group of men can do, and their works will live after them. The world heaps honors and riches on the successful politician, "manufacturer, financier, and business man. Too frequently, though, the quiet man at work in his garden, field or laboratory, working out through years of study and experimentation difficult problems whose solution blesses all mankind, remains unrecognized and without reward* It is gratifying, therefore, to learn that a body has been created with strong financial backing to carry on the work.to.which Luther Burbank devoted the best years of his life; that the Dominion Government has rcognized Dn Saunders' invaluable research work by granting him an annuity of some thousands of dollars for life; that ieaders in all walks and professions in life have united in doing honor to Seager -* Wheeler. Over and above the material achievements of these really great men, and the direct benefits they have conferred on the world, there is the example of such lives and the incentive they give to others to strive mightily for greater, better things. The Individual, farmer who is earnestly striving to make his farm a model for the community in which he lives, who wages unceasing warfare on weeds, who gives close attention, to tho cultiyation of his soil, insists on good, clean seed,, who eliminates scrubs from his herds and houses his cattle In clean and sanitary buildings, or the farm wife who takes a pride in her poultry, in the quality of the milk and cream sent to the creamery, or the butter she herself may make, are likewise doing essential service to their country aud are deserving of the thanks of their fellow citizens.

This makes a total o������ over forty million pounds 61 twine handled, by the company during the "past five years, and of over eighty-five' million pounds of twine sincef-the company first went into the twine business. jJJe- fore 1914, when ^ the . company, the Grain Growers'. Grain Company first undertook the distribution of binder twine it was Impossible- for a farmers' organization to buy twine at wholesale prices, and the company in suite of its lai*ge purchasing poWer, had a' good deal,of difficulty in matting purchases at first. /For a, time.it was necessary to import....twine, made in Ireland. Before that time twine was handled only through certain well defined retail channels, and the retail profits allowed added from two to four cents a pound to the cost of twine. Now, thanks to the work done by the farmer's company, a large part of the twine used is distributed through farmer organizations, at U.G.G. elevators and by local associations. The total savings to farmers that have resulted are not easy to calculate, but probably two million dollars less has been paid by farmers, for U.G.O. twine than they would have had to pay under conditions formerly prevailing, and still prevailing to a certain extent in parts of tho" country whero there is no competition from farmort,* organizations in tho handling of twine. But that Is only a part of the saving to farmers, because this competition hao brought about a lower neale of prices on twino nil over tho country, resulting In savings of many millions.
