FRUIT GROWING Professors Thornber and Me- landar Address Ranchers ofthe Valley to Robert Lindholm. llobinson & Lequime'B lumber camp has also been burned. A number of bridges nnd culverts have been destroyed, and the wagon road north ot Lynch creek is reported to be impassable on account of fallen trees. There was a large attendance of members and citizens at the meeting of the Kettle Valley Farmers' institute in the city hall on Monday evening, when Professors Thornber and Melander, of the Washington State College at Pullman, delivered lectures. The speakers were introduce! by C. Scott Galloway, president of the inftitute. Prof. A. L. Melander, entomologist at Pullman, spoke on "Insect Pests and Their treatment." His lecture was illustrated with a large number of stereoptieon slides of the various insect pests that infest orchards. The best method of spraying orchards was also illustrated by the same agency. His concluding remarks were devoted to the spread of disease by the common housefly, mosquito and rats. Tbe housefly was a great menace to public health, as it roamed from barnyards and out- , houses to the sugar-bowl on the dining-room table. It waB a prolific disseminator of such diseases as typhoid fever, tuberculosis and dysentery. A great deal of sickness was caused by thiB pest, and one death out of every ten was due to it. ln houses infested by flies everything edible should be kept under cover. Flies could be got rid of by applying proper sanitary laws to their breeding places—mainly stable ref use, decayed vegetable matter aud outhouses. The spread of malaria and yellow fever was mainly caused by niosquitos, while contagious diseases of the type of the Asiatic plague were often disseminated by rats. Prof. Thornber delivered an interesting and instructive lecture on "Commercial Fruit Growing." His address was also illustrated with lantern slides. The subject of the conservation of moisture was treated exhaustively. A three-inch clot mulch, the largest clots being about the size of a hen's egg, was reeom mended as best. For the production of fruit buds he recommended pruning during the first week in August. For wood growth winter pruning was best. The Northern Spy and Spitzenburg trees should be pruned in summer, but for treesof an early variety winter pruning was preferable. The Clark Sr. cultivator was, he said, in his opinion one of the best orchard tools on the market today, as it permitted of cultivation under the trees. Wheat, rye, Canada peas and Harry Vitch were recommended for cover crops, and the Lambert cherry for wind breaks. On motion of Martin Hurrell, M, P., and A. D. Morrison, a hearty vote of thanks was tendered Professors Thornber and Melander. On Tuesday forenoon a practical demonstration was held at .1. T. Lawrence's ranch. Stewart Gold All is not gold that glitters, even though it glitters at Stewart, and by this time the Portland Canal Miner ought to be heartily ashamed of itself for having so grossly exaggerated the character and value of the reef recently discovered in that country. Now that the Dominion government has declared that it is simply "a pyrihotite vein in slate with Borne gold showing at the surface only," no condemnation cm be too loud for the statement that there was a gold reef running for twenty mileB through the country, free milling, and standing out like a "white" bluff. The London press, which has not a little to do in influencing British investments abroad, will be apt to regard it as a very "black" bluff. It is to be hoped that the camp will not permanently suffer from such ill-advised boosting. Meanwhile the Colonist quotes tbe exaggerated reports which have appeared in the London papers, and blames them for not making "local enquiries" before publishing them. Is the Colonist aware tbat these reports emanated from the local paper —the Portland Canal Miner—and from the office of a well known Victoria correspondent? Is not this "local" enough?—Victoria Week. IHE cram Financial Statement for Past Six Months Submitted to the Board D.eath of a Pioneer On Friday, July 22, George Stark, who had reached the ripe age of 86 years, passed quietly away at his home on Winnipeg avenue in this city. Deceased was one of the first settlers in Grand Forks, having resided here continuously for over twelve years. He was a native of New York state. He is survived by an aged wife and three daughters— Mrs. Fred Steers, of Wallace, Ida., Mrs. Alnistrom Armstrong, of Phoenix, and Mrs. R. J. Gardner, of this city. The people of the community extend their sympathies to the bereaved family. The funeral will be held on Sunday afternoon, interment taking place at the city cemetery. Road Opened Mark Kay was in the city this week. He reports having cleared the old wagon road between the Phoenix road and the City of Paris and Lone Pine mines, and autoists, if they so desire, can now visit these properties with their machines. New Auto B. Lequime, ths lumber merchant, is the latest member to join the ranks of the local autoists, his machine arriving in the city today. Directors' Meeting The directors of tiie Grand Forks Agricultural association will meet in the city hall on Monday evening, July 25th. make the needed repairs tfl sidewalks and the Winnipeg avenue bridge. The trade license bylaw was reconsidered and finally passed. MYSTERIOUS FIRE MINING RECORDS Wood Burned The forest fire at Lynch creek this week destroyed about $600 worth of ■eordwood and cedar poles belonging J. tt. McDonnell left on Wednesday for a vacation trip through the Similkameen country. Rev. H, W. Wright returned on Tuesday from the Baptist convention at Vancouver. Mayor Clark and Aid. Follick, Manly and Rutherford were present at the council meeting on Tuesday evening. The board of works was authorized to construct a concrete sidewalk in front of D. Whiteside's residence on Winnipeg avenue, charging two- thirds of the cost against tbe property. The medical health officer's report for the past six months waB laid on the table until the next meeting, some of the niembeis considering it incomplete. A petition from tbe residents on Winnipeg avenue, between Cambridge and Observation streets, for a new sidewalk, was refused, as there are no available funds for this purpose at present. James Bruno was granted a permit to erect a two-Btory concrete residence on Winnipeg avenue, near the Presbyterian church. The auditor's statement for the past six months showed that the receipts had been $19,985.42 and tbe expenditures #22,145.5(5. The following accounts were ordered paid: Kettle River Lumber Co 8408.92 South Kootenay Power Co .. :iil0.50 Canadian Westinghouse Co.. 169.22 Northwest Electric Co 119.31 City treasurer 106.20 Win.

Wright for $51.25 for bricklaying on the new city stable, was referred back to Mr. Wright, the council considering the charge excessive. In W. K. C. Manly's account of $44.15 there was an item of j5'3 for two hauliers. The finance committee wished to know who hud authority to purchase these. It transpired thut M. Quinlivan had done so, and had given them to Mr. Ber tois with the city team. On motion of Aid. Follick and Rutheford, the account wus ordered paid the 8:1 to be charged to Mr. Quinlivan, lu future city employees must procure a requisition from the oity clerk for all supplies purchased. The reports of the chairmen of the various committees were not of un important nature. The city clerk was instructed to advertise in thc Macleod and Lethbridge papers for a team ot horses suitable for the fire department. Aid. Follick asked that a list of all owners whose cattle or horses were impounded be kept, so that those who were guilty "of violiting the law more than once could be prosecuted. The board of works wus instructed to purchase sufficient lumber to Following are the locations, certificates of work, bills of sale, etc., recorded in the Government office at Grand Forks, B.

A Stringent Fire Law Because he refused to leave a 83.50 a day job for a day to fight forest fires when called upon by a deputy state fire warden, Charles Simon, of' North Bend, Wash., is serving ten days in the county jail, being the first man ever imprisoned for that offence in the state of Washington. The state law provides that upon an emergency call from a deputy fire warden, any citizen may be called upon to help fight a dangerous fire. The Washington Forest Fire association is more active this year than ever before in its fight against destructive forest fires. Several small fires have occurred already this season in western Washington, but the association and its patrolmen and the state officers are on the watch for each small blaze, and hope to get through the dry season without any disastrous fires such as have each year wiped out many thousands of dollars worth of fine time. They are warning farmers against burning slashings at this season,and campers against leaving any fires of an sort behind them. Game Regulations In another month hunters throughout the province will be preparing for an invasion of the game districts of the country, for according to the regulations issued by the government the lirst legal day when the quest of game may be undertaken is September 1st, when ducks, geese and snipe may be shot on the mainland and islands adjacent thereto, but on Van-' couver island the season will not be open until September 15.

SATURDAY, JULY 23, 1910 Tne most ilespicnhle type of a newspaper is the one which prides itself on doing indiscriminate boosting. Its editor is either a fool or a criminal;, If he boosts fake enterprises or mining propositions without making proper enquiries as to the genuineness of their clai-ns, but simply takes the glowing descrip lions made by the promoters for granted as true, he is a fool; but if he knows the claims of the concerns to be false, and still persists in boosting in order to line his own pockets, then he is a criminal, and should be sent to prison along with the promoters. This kind of boosting is nothing short of highway lobbery, aud too much of it is being done nowadays, especially in undeveloped districts. The investor of moderate means reads these erroneous articles, and on the strength of the wild statements mnde, and the promise of a rapid rise in the price of the stock, the money that should go toward the support of his family is often lured from him. The conscienceless peddler of worthless shares does not care where the money comes from. The widow, the orphan, or the wage earner may suffer for the necessaries of life through his misrepresentations, supported by the hair-brained or criminal booster, but as long as his own belly is lined capon their miseries do not affect him. It sounds very pretty to say, "If you can't boost, don't knock." But when you analyze the phrase, it does not assay very high in com; inon sense. It has always been our impression that it must have been coined by some immature hungry person desirous of raising the price of a meal by doing a little hap-_ hazard boosting. If you are certain that an enterprise is sound and worthy of boosting, by all means boost it; but if you are in doubt, endeavor to ascertain the facts, and tell the public the truth, because if you don't some of your readers may suffer by your silence. Ben Norris returned to the city on Saturday. He hns been working at Princeton during the past three or four months.

IN THE COUNTY COURT HOLDEN AT GRAND FORKS Once there lived u woman win, admitted tlmt her husband wus too good for her—but she's been dead several centuries. There's but one side to a question when a man and woman argue—ami the woman always has a strangle hold on it. Some statesmen are so big that a party's liabilities become too heavy if they are not counted as it's best assets. Every year, more and more people pursue a literary career, and every year fewer and fewer catch up with it. Steer the average man up against a soda fountain and he'll complain that he isn't being Ueated right. A woman will envy another woman's homely feature if she hears often enough that it is pretty. > A man thinks he's a devil of a fellow to have a prizefighter pointed out to him in a street cur. A little culd nerve will get a man a bigger reputation for ability than a head full of brains. A woman spends her money for what she wants; a man for what he thinks he wants. If judges were mind readers a lot more lawyers would be fined for contempt of court. A girl is awful smart to be cross with a man so as to make him think he is the one. You ean always tell by the way a woman smiles that wliat you think it means isn't it. A thought one cannot express without profanity would be just as well unexpressed. The good investment is for the fellow who lets you have it for some of your money. When a man is told of his fine fig ure he lets himself out; a wuiuan hokls herself in. There is something wrong with the woman who pricies herself on her hick of pride. Men wouldn't care so much for even baseball if it were a family affair. A man may lose on thc best hand by not playing Ins potter face just right. If a man won't listen to reason it's a sign that he he doesn't agree with you. When a man hasn't any reputation left he can afford to run tor olliee. The way a man cuts down Ins llowcr bills tor a girl is by marrying her. Most women talk politics cut bias and trimmed lo sun themselves. Any excuse would be all right if you could make people believe it. Never judge a man's importance by the self-conceit he has on tap. A deaf innn doesn't mind being shaved by a gurruluns barber. Little conscience1 money conies from overlooked street car fares.

IN PROBATE NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on the 23rd day of May, 1910, it was ordered by His Honor Judge Brown that A. C. Sutton, Public Administrator, be administrator of all and singular the estate of Patrick Moran, late of Deep Creek, B.C., deceased, intestate. Every person indebted to snid estate is required to make payment forthwith to the undersigned, and every person having in possession effects belonging to said estate is required forthwith to deliver same over to the undersigned.

After the said 1st day of July the administrator will proceed with the administration of the estate, having regard to those claims only of which be shall then have had notice.

Aids Nature The great success of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery in curing weak stomachs, wasted bodies, wtfak lungs, and obstinate and lingering coughs, is based on the recognition of the fundamental truth that "Golden Medical Discovery" supplies Nature with body-building, tissue-repairing, muscle-making materials, in condensed and concentrated form. With this help Nature supplies the necessary strength to the stomach to digest food, build up the body and thereby throw off lingering obstinate coughs. The "Discovery'" re-establishes the digestive and nutritive organs in sound health, purifies and enriches the blood, and nourishes the nerves—in short establishes sound vigorous health. If your dealer offers something ** lust aa good,** it is probably better FOR MM—it pays tetter* But vou are thinking of the cure not the profit, go there*s nothing "lust as iood" for you. Say so.

W, Brock, nf h visit last summer to the mountain und valley region nf the Kootenay- Columbia divide. The suggested reservation by British Columbia of the two valleys of Hamill and Toby '•reeks, as a provincial park, is enthusiastically endorsed. After entering Hamill creek, says the director, a .somewhat steep climb of 2000 feet $1500 160 ACRES IN FRANKLIN CAMP 2,500,00 feet nf commercial timber on property; $500 hewn log home; North Fork runs through laud; Kettle Valley line survey crosses property; deed clear.

Several al- ; pine glaciers lie close to the trail. 1 Some of the peaks exceed 10,000 feet in elevation, and from their summits is to be seen one of the finest and most extensive panoramas in the Canadian Cordillera. The region "has been made .somewhat famous by the •present governor-general, Earl Grey. Anothei magnificent site for a park exists up Duncan river, in the Lime- dike country, about the head of Hall, Haley, Caribou. Gainer and Porcupine creeks. Here the scenery is of the peculiarly wild, airy type of the famous Dolomities of the Tyrolean Alps. Such parks, says the director, would mean a great deal in the future tourist travel in southern Kootenay, which can soon be made one of the big "industries" in the province; so that iu addition to preserving in its natural state the grandest of mountain scenery, and forming a game and timber reserve, they would become most valuable provincial assets. The director gives an account of the visit made, in company with Hon. Win. Templeman, to various points on the west coast, of British Columbia and the Yukon. His description of the Portland Canal is timely on account of the mining boom which is this year centering jn this district.
