W A I- K 12 R ONE MAN'S POINT OF VIEW ��������������������������� f HE effort that is being made'by the committee appointed by the Northern Okanagan Poul- try_ Association to secure, if possible The Bonnie Briar Bush is a charming romance of thc Scottish hills. a suitable building for the holding of the annual Winter Poultry Show at Enderby, is worthy of much praise. But���������������������������and there is a "but"���������������������������the effort it seems to many, is being made in the wrong direction. Feeling that it would be useless to approach the City Council and ask for an appropriation for such a purpose, the committeemen are attempting to find the means to buy a lot and erect a building thereon, and they propose to sell shares in the Association to raise the necessary amount. Of course, in asking anyone to purchase these shares, the committeemen realize that it would be only a mild way of asking for ,an appropriation or contribution from the man's personal means, for they recognize they could not promise any return on the investment���������������������������in a direct way, at least. This, we believe, is wrong. Just why a few loyal men should be asked to dip down and find the funds to erect a building for a distinctly public purpose, we fail to comprehend. Outside of the businessmen, most of the men. who would contribute are poultrymen, and they have done and are doing already the lion's share of the work in connection with these annual exhibitions. No doubt $800 or $1000 could be raised in this way, but it would not be just, either to the town, the Association or the men public-spirited enough to go into it. Enderby either wants this annual poultry show or it doesn't. If it wants it, the city is not only justified iu doing so, but it is its duty, to assume some of the burden in connection with it. * We should .emulate the splendid example of Armstrong: provide a building as Armstrong has done, and allow the use of it to the Poultry Association free of charge, as Armstrong does its Agricult iral Hall to the Agricultural Society. We all know what the annual feir means=ito:=:=Armstrong.==Per-haps=-. he- Winter Poultry Show would not me .n as much to Enderby in the start, but the time is not long when, if proper facilities are provided' for" holding these shows, it will mean a great deal more to Enderby than the annual fair means to Armstrong. We can see no reason why Endorby should, not be made the headquarters for high-class poultry for British Columbia, and the poultrymen of the Dominion would no more think of missing the winter poultry .how nt Enderby than they now think of missing thc annual poultry ������������������'iow nt Guclph, ont. If Enderby does not want i!io annual poultry show, the n.m.njr tre Association becomes aware .if the fact the better it will be for till concerned. ��������������������������� But we believe Enderby do( s v ant to hold the annual show !.>re. We believe enough of our bu_uf_.;smen and citizens generally reco^ui_e thc great benefit these shows h'.ve ni- ready been to Enderby and thc District, and they know that what has been done is only, a start of the ical thing that may be accomplished l.y and through them. And we belie-., too, that the Northern Okanagan Poultry Association would have no difficulty whatever in having a suitable building erected by the city if the matter is approached in the right way. To ask the City Council to appropriate any sum of money out of the current revenue for the purpose is not reasonable. It would not be justified in so doing, for the building would have to be a general purpose ^building, and its life would.extend over a number oi years, whereas" the current revenue is for current use. To petition the Council in the regular way to submit a by-law to the electors to raise, say $2,000 for the erection of a general purpose building, which could be used for exhibition purposes, on the recreation" ground would be reasonable and we do not believe one property owner in ten would oppose such a proposition. We are certain every businessman in the city would sign such a petition. Enderby needs a public building on the recreation ground. It should be one that could be utilized by the city at all times and in all ways for the advancement of those enterprises and amusements which are so essential to our advance. Enderby needs a covered skating rink for bonspeil and carnival purposes. It requires an exhibition hall, that wo might be in a position to hold a fruit exhibit. There are numerous purposes that a public building could be put to, and it would all assist in the development of the town and district. The birds that will be sent to the next Winter Poultry Show will in all probably be not less than 800. Mr. Robt. Waddell informs us that the fanciers of Ashcroft will alone send at least 150. They have already .provided to do so. Next year's prize list will be thrown open to a very large extent with the intention of bringing birds in from the outside, and it is up to Enderby to prepare for it. Right now is the time to do so. Waits are always dangerous. As soon as the new City Council is elected and gets down to business a petition should be presented to them, so that the matter may be placed before the electors and the funds provided for the building to go up as soon as spring building commences. silver coffee perculator for highest- scoring p. ir in American- class, 187. points; brass mantle clock for highest-scoring pair in Mediterranean class, 187 points. In his remarks before the Ashcroft Association, Judge Collier said that he never judged a finer lot of birds as a whole, than the exhibit made by Mrs. Waddell, and he paid her a very high compliment on the splendid condition' of her birds. , Mr. and Mrs. Waddell, and all who attended.the Ashcroft show from Enderby, came home enthusiastic over the splendid treatment accorded them and the genuine spirit of friendly, rivalry than' .prevails in the Ashcroft Association. Ashcroft "fanciers have promised to send , 150 birds to the next poultry>how at Enderby. - " The judging by ' Mr. V Collier "was '< more, than���������������������������satisfactory.'.-He, judged-' the same birds-at the Enderby. show, ." and many of them were sent to Ashcroft largely '-to' test the * accuracy of his .scoring...-.

From the Ashcroft show, Mr.' and' "' Mrs.NWaddell take their exhibit to ' the Vancouver poultry show. From there they go to Seattle and Tacoma - exhibitions, and may. go farther east.

It is their determination to make the Hazelmere Poultry Farm second to none in Canada, and to do so they will bring t_^E_derby^thT^tfc_igesr_^ birds to be found to head their pens. ,AU who attended the New Years Ball given by the Enderby Oddfellows declare it to have been the best dance ever given in Enderby. Sixty couple were on the floor, and 115 sat down to' a well-served and much-relished supper- at the King Edward. The hall was very artistically decorated1 - with evergreens and bunting, and the floor and music never were better. On" one side of the stage stood a bare-limbed, lifeless tree, labeled "1909" and opposite it a lusty young spruce with "1910" swinging hopefully from its branches.

Owing lo the fact lhat a cow or heifer is a nice easy milker Ihey aro usually milked out clean at each milking. In this way thoy arc enabled to keep up their regular Ilow of milk, while on the other hand if they be bard milkers thc milker becomes discouraged and impatient, and fails to draw out. the natural quantity. Thc cow or heifer will then soon show the effect of this by drying up on her milk. Tn this way many a valuable cow has become practically worthless as a milk producer. Hard milking in cows or heifers can be positively overcome in a short period, of time and in a very economical way (not by the uso of the milking tube) but by the uso 0! the teat plug. The teat should be washed witfc an antiseptic solution, the tea. plug should be dipped in a liko solution, and in a little ointment and passed into the point of the teat; being self-retaining it should bo permitted to remain in the teat from one milking lo another, in this manner hard milking can bo made a thing of thc past. ��������������������������� Dr. D.ivM .Fioberts. ���������������������������-'���������������������������)!

Three hundred and eighty-two pupils throughout the province took the examinations and out of this number 212 were successful���������������������������55 per cent. Of the 212 who passed, only 24 obtained more than 700 marks out of a possible 1000. Those who tried at Enderby and passed were: Sylvia V. Black, 701; Harold J. Bass, 683; John D.

The Gci'iaan Emperor and thc Red Carnal ion���������������������������1-r'js.-. of .V. lo. Was jl-.t;i\cil. A few.years ago a paragraph 'ap- ipcare-l in a Berlin, daily stating ���������������������������that Prinoo Henry, who had jusfc returned from hi.s . _sit to the United States, had brought 'home, ���������������������������as a- present to his brother, a number of plants of a now variety of crimson carnation. "As everyone knows,,; the paragraph concluded, "fche--red carnation is his Imperial (Majesty's favorite flower." Oa the day after thc publication of this news thc Kaiser was duo at Aix-la-Ghappclle. A member of the Town Council suggested that everyone in the town s'hculd wear 0- buttonhole of the Kaiser's favorite flower. GETTING AT THE KAISER The suggestion was a. once acted on. Tiie frock-coat members of the deputation which waited next morning on the platform each wore* proudly a buttonhole o������������������ the deepest 'crimson. The poor fellows could not conceive why the Kaiser's demeanor ������������������������������������������������������was so freezing. He dismissed them wit'h a few words, got into his carriage, and drove off. At the Town Hall was another deputation, similarly decorated. Then his Majesty's wrath exploded. "What is thc meaning of this insult ."' he demanded. Someone explained, and then oue of the Kaiser's attendants took the mayor The duke took him at his word, but, of course, he waa no sooner inside than he was at once recognized as a sightseer. His silk hat ���������������������������was instantly spirited away, and ���������������������������he- was at once surrounkled by a mob of dealers with notebooks, shouting fabulous offers' to buy or ���������������������������sell stock. Tbe duke had a desperate struggle to reach the front -lu. by, and when at last he got there, hatless and breathless, he found that seme gonial soul had pinned a Ions price- list to the tails of his coat. PJtINOE FERDINAND .FOOLED. It is not likely that any reigning sovereign ever got a more un-plca.- .anfc scare than did Ferdinand of Bulgaria, some five years ago. His private, secretary, _ young baron, was away in Austria on a vacation, when a. letter arrived for his Royal master announcing that'he did not propose to return, -an.1 that ho would be glad of the sum of 9200,- 000. Otherwise, he wrote, ho would be compelled to sell a- number of secret documents which he had taken away with him. Instantly Prince Ferdinand despatched a couple of secret service envoys in. chase of his missing secretary, whom they ran to ground 'peacefully shooting on his own estate. Further investigation proved the missive to be nothing but a hoax.���������������������������London Answers. - ��������������������������� "Mv aear sur. .Majesty chiclly ago. our own Kin de- he said, '���������������������������'surely you knew' that tho red carina tion is the emblem of t'he Social Democrats, and, of all flowers, the one which his tests!"

A letter, purporting to 'be in. the 'handwriting and above the signature of princess Louise of Coburg, was received by the editor, who very foolishly published it without first assuring himself as to it ness. Tiiis letter gave a- long catalogue i of tho wrongs of Princes- Louise and of her sisters, and constituted a jnost brutal attack uponhcrfather, the Tung bTTfuTRclgiaiis.- "'" The letter was at once copied by a. number of other papers, including more lii-nn one in this country. l\ at n rally, it gave great pain to tho Princess horse., and thc only won- jer is that a prosecution for libel was not the immediate result- Five years ago a young American |i .om .n who was . agiMi . hat she would propose to the King .: Denmark.

Dominico Cappa. thc Italian Sherlock Holmes, has just died, almost an octogenarian, leaving most interesting memoirs of a time which although relatively near, seems already ancient history. Cappa's great achievements as a detective are innumerable. He always refused to carry arms, of -which _ hc had almost a holy horror, saying, "My best arms arc these." showing" two formidable hands which, when they grasped a criminal, wero like a vise. The most .important service he rendered to his country was thc constant watch which hc kept on Count Cavour, the groat statesman, until hc died. Cappa says in his memoirs that in order not to abandon his charge for a single instant he used to go on for weeks working IS hours a day, having only ono meal, late at night. One of the most characteristic an- necdotes in Cappa'3 memoirs is connected with the disastrous peace of Villafranca to which Piedmont had to submit -when it was imposed upon by her Napoleon III. That day Count Cavour went for hi.s usual "walk along the ' banks of thc Diver Po, followed by thc faithful Cappa. Both men were heartbroken (tit the turn of events. At a certain point Cavour took off his top hat and relieved his feelings by crushing it in, afterwards jamming thc shapeless remnants on to his head. Cappa confesses that, notwithstanding his sadness, hc could net restrain his sadness, hc could the Minister turned, asking severely. "What are you laughing at?*' " "Tour Excellency, at your hat," -an s-w ere-d^Uie^f-righ tcjiod-__pjL>l i co-. man. Count Cavour took off his hat, thrust his fist into it to restore it fo some sort of shape, and went on. When he reached his door hc turned and stood for a few moments as though considering what hc would say fo Cappa, then, without a word, hc held out his hand, which the defective pressed fo his lips, and both.men hurriedly withdrew, to. hide the tears in their eyes.

"I was ,for years a great sufferer from Kidney Disease, Gravel, Rheumatism and Backache," Mrs. Kricger states.. "It all started through a cold, but I got so my head ached, I was nervous, my limbs were heavy, I had a dragging sensation across my loins, and I was totally unfit to do anything. "Reading about wonderful cures bj Dodd's Kidney-Pills led me to buy some. After using a few I found they were doing me good and this encouraged me to continue their use. Eight boxes made me well. "I have been able to do my own work ever since and to-day I am completely cured. Dodd's Kidney Pills gave me health and I feel like a new woman."

The close of school in France is made,the occasion of a splendid function���������������������������the distribution of prizes. At the present time schools close on the eve of the national fete, July 14th, instead of dragging their session to the very last day of the month, as was formerly the custom. At the "distribution of prizes of a lycee, or public school, in Paris, there is an orchestra, and officials of the government and of the University of France form" an imposing sort of chorus about the central figure of the occasion���������������������������some famous man chosen to make the oration. If, as is frequently the case, the orator of thc day is an Academicien, he wears the wonderful green and black uniform of his rank, and carries himself in such a distinguished manner as to look much' more than thc fortieth part of immortality which his official dignity denotes. In the great schools of Paris the number of students is immense. Assembled for the distribution of prizes,-the schools themselves present an impressive spectacle. "A large part are in the uniform of the internes,���������������������������boarders,���������������������������all are immaculately attired, wearing- white gloves and the fineness of French intellectual fibre causes this mass of youth to exhibit characteristics of distinction sometimes lacking in similar assemblages of English youth. In the actual distribution of prizes, the family spirit, -so strong in the-French, has pretty manifestation. .When thc boy's name has been called and his award designated, he goes to the stage. He then has the privilege of indicating the person from whom he would like to receive his prize. He may, if he will, select the great Academicien, who then, with his illustrious hands, will deliver to the boy his prize, saying a few gracious words to him, and probably kissing him on both cheeks. On many instances, however, the boy ignores-his opportunity .to-secure something like immortalization for himself, and chooses to "receive his prize at the hands of his mother. -He then turns his back upon the mayor, the faculty of tlie -University of .France, and upon the Academie francaise, and-descends to' the audience with his professor nt his heels bearing his. prize. There the prize is finally bestowed upon him by his mother, who embraces'him before all the people. -���������������������������# WOMAN'S TRADE SCIIOOL.

"Oh, no, ma'am, I was not seasick at all," said the pretty Lida, "but I lost my sleep.

Agriculture. The following letter is self-explanatory, and shows to what extent tlie movement has developed: Department of Agriculture, Victoria, 23rd.Dec,1909 Geo. S. Robinson, Sec'y Northern Okanagan Poultry Association. Dear Sir: Enclosed you will find Chapter 12, of the Revised Statutes, 1897, being the Agricultural and Horticultural Societies Act. This, with Chapter, 2, 1903-4, being an amendment to. the above Act, will give you the necessary information as to the procedure to. have your association incorporated. You will notice that in Sec. 3 of Chapter 2, any society cannot receive a greater amount than double the amount of the subscriptions actually paid to- and ior the use of the Society during the preceding year, by the members of the Society. In other words, the larger your membership, the larger the grant you are entitled to. * * * * On the 21st inst. I forwarded you Chap. 12 of the Revised Statutes of 1897, with its amendments, in view of the fact that the Northern Okanagan Poultry) Association was anxious to secure a grant from the Government. At present, several local associations receive special grants from the Government purely for exhibition purposes, and as it stood, there was no reason why Enderby should not have received a grant last year, or for its recent show. However, the condition of affairs has changed greatly, and since writing you I have been able to obtain from the Premier, through the Live Stock Commissioner, a verbal promise of any money needed for the further development of the poultry industry; therefore, instead of having the Northern Okanagan Poultry Association become an incorporated association, I hope you will refrain from taking action towards this end at present, as we,are now endeavoring to organise a Provincial Poultry Association. At present the Vancouver, Victoria, Nanaimo and Ashcroft Associations are not incorporated, though they receive, as above stated, grants for their shows, consequently it is deemed advisable that the Northern Okanagan Poultry Association should not become incorporated. When a Provincial Association is organized and receives grants from the Government, it will look after the interests of the local organizations. In other words, in future, thc local Associations will receive their aid and encouragement through the Provincial Association. The matter of organizing a Provincial Poultry Association should be of very great interest to all poultry- men,=-and���������������������������cspccially=to-the-Poultr-y- Associations of the Province, since they are the leaders in the advancement of the industry. There is a great .need for a Provincial Poultry Association, and I believe that when it is formed much will be accomplished. This association will strive to advance the poultry industry of B. C. ns expediently as possible, having due consideration for each individual of the association. The 13. C. Stock Breeders' Association nnd other associations are accomplishing much, and there is even a greater field for work in connection with a B. C. Poultry Association. It would be engaged chiefly in arousing interest in the industry throughout the Province, in giving the general public an idea of the importance of the industry to the. Province, and in endeavoring to secure larger grants for various purposes, such as poultry shows throughout the Province, a Winter Poultry Show, egg collecting stations, etc. Probably it would take up the work of assisting poultrymen in securing their breeding stock, and would also probably take up the question of the buying of feed, materials, etc., and the marketing of produce. This will give an idea of the work which could be done if a Provincial Poultry Association were organized. I feel assured that the Northern .Okanagan Poultry Association can do much towards arousing the interest of the poultrymen in the Valley, and impressing upon them the need of such an Association. I shall be very glad to have the opinion of your Association on the matter. I trust that this suggestion may meet with your approval, and I hope that I may hear from you in thc near future. Believe me, Yours truly, M. A. JULL, Poultry Expert.

B\G _ ALfc whereof he speaks, says: 'Two thousand dollars an acre will seem large to you folk, but when the yield is sufficient to pay high interest on such an outlay, as has heretofore been the case, it is a simple business deal. Wenatchee and North Yakima ranchers have often enough netted $2,000 per acre on .one season's work. They think there is something wrong if their net profits are not $500 per acre. British Columbia can produce as good, if not better, fruit, though the yield per tree is not as large."
