WINKLER, Proprietor, g The, Royal Commission on , Indian affairs spent Monday a nil Tuesday of this week in Hedley in connection with its province-wide tour of observation and investigation of reserves land matters. This commission is coin posed of Hon. E. L. Wettnore, former chief justice of Sackatchewan, chairman; Dr. J. A. .T. McKenna ' and Mr. Nathaniel W. White, JK. C", representing'the-Dominion, and Messrs. J. P. Shaw, M. P. P. of Shnswup and Day H. Mae- Dowall of Victoria, representing the Province. Mi;. C. H. Gihbons of Victoria is secretary, and the commission on their Okanagan visitations are accompanied hy Inspector T. J. Commis- key and Agent J. R. Brown, district officials of the Department of Indian affairs. The appointment of this joint federal and provincial commission has for its object primarily the termination of cententions between the two governments which have long prevailed over Indian land matters and the establishment of fixed conditions with respect tothe Indian reserves in British Co-; j u tit hi a tip pro x i.m a ti n g thos e ,0 b tai n in g iii the. eastern provinces of the 'Dominion. The Commission is required to visit all reserves in the .province, ascertain the conditions obtaining on each, and determine whether the lands alloted are reasonably sufficient for the requirements of the Indians, unduly large or insufficient. If the former the reserve will be permanently confirmed; if additional lands are found to be fairly nece*ssary for the requirements of the Indians they will he added by the Commission, thu province undertaking to provide requisite areas out of the unalienated crown lands of British Columbia. If the reserves are found unduly large, the Commission will recommend the extent of reduction, but the consent of the Indians is made a requisite to any cutting off. Such consent being obtained, the,cut-off lands are to be sold at auction, one half of the net proceeds going to-the Province and the other half to the-,Indians in cash. Upon the final report of the Commission title in all reserves in B. C will be conveyed to the Dominion government in trust for tlie Indians, and the local government will cease to exercise or claim any interest in Indian lands, save and except in the event of a tribe or band becoming extinct, when the reserve lands will revert to the province. The unification of jurisdiction and ownership is expected to greatly improve the machinery of administration, to tho advantage of the Indians and all others concerned. The Commission since its formal inauguration in mid-May last has visited all the reserves in the Cowich- an, Bella Ooola, Queen Charlotte and Okanagan agencies, inspecting upwards of one hundred reserves ��������� arid holding almost as many meetings with the Indians. From here the party proceeded to Princeton on Tuesday afternoon, the intention being to proceed thence by motor to Merritt and on to Kamloops next week. Conditions as to the reserves in this vicinity were the subject of evidence taken at a meeting held on Monday afternoon when both the Ashnola and Ohu-chu-way-ha tribes presented their case, application being made in each case for additional range land, in extent approximating something over 270,000 acres. Chief John Ashnola, and Alexis Skeuce were the principal spokesmen and witnesses for the According lo.an-Ottawa dispatch to New York large .increases in exports to the United States of the ptincipal Canadian commodities affected by the United States tariff hill are confidently expected by ,tiie department of Trade and Commerce and Customs. ��������� There are signs .that in all the lines of production .to .be effected by the new tariff extensive preparations are being made to take" the fullest advan- tage of the changes. This is especially noticeable in live-stock, meats, hay, coal,'fish, and in some lines of nianu- i'acutrrs. The t-rad^ figures of the first five months of the/h'scal yi*ar���������up to September 1st���������arc(0nt today and they, show great increases. Canadian exports during August broke all records. Total imports and ..exports for August were $97,743,581. a .gain of nearly $8,- 000,000 over August'; 1912. Exports of agricultural products in August ��������� nearly all to.the. United States���������wen; $1S,000.000, a gam/of $5,000,000 over August last year, .while the total exports for August��������� mostly to tlie United States���������wete $01,000,000, a gain of $9,000,000 over August, 1912. For the five months' period ended August 31, the total of imports and exports was $-1-50,023,107, compiired with $418,658,- 748 for the same period last year. ISUYERS ARE" IN liVIDKNCli United States and Canadian buyers, of live stock, hay^tnd other agricultural products for. export lo the States are much in evidence thoroughout Ontario, Quebec aud the other Eastern provinces. Cattle,and hay buyers are specially active for exports to the Buffalo, New York and Boston' markets.

Sidney Fisher, ex-Minister, Goes Down to Defeat ��������� French Liberal Papers Urged the Cry "No Contribution," But the French Canadian Followed Borden as He Followed Salaberry. It was on October 25th, 1813. that the French Canadian militia followed uolonel de Salaberry with his 800 British regulars in repelling an assault of the United States army under General Hiynpton. The loyalty and valor they displayed on that occasion cannot be praised Loo highly. On Saturday^ hist, Oct. 11, 1913, another valorous service for the cause of Empire was performed when the. men of Chati'.-mguay turned clown the race cry and refused to skulk to the tune of "No Contribution" fiddled by the French Canadian Liberal and Nationalist papers. An ex-Minister, Hon. Sidney Fisher was the Laurier candidate hub a local Conservative standard-bearer, James Morris, beat him by a majority of 144 in a vote of over ninety percent of the electorate. Sir Wilfrid Laurier himself was in the riding assisted by his former colleagues. Lemieux and Graham, and the whole nationalist hue and cry. The successful candidate did not hesitate to give his opinion that the result was to be interpreted in no other way than as unqualified expression of approbation vqf. Borden's7 policy., .bot-h as ''regards' the -"navy" aiid 'the^'trade' question. 7 WORK ON OREGON CLAIM Hedley Gold Mining Company's Plan to Develop 'Power on Similkameen ^���������'���������aK'3 >t,?' . x. jc -. -''. . \ ':'Notwithstanding that the Hedley 'Gold Mining Co.". li'ad the.-gaff thrown into tlie iii, pVetby'strongo'in'the exces- sitfi'V figure, demanded.

There a fore-bay will deliver the water by means of a penstock-on a fall of over 70 feet to a power station on the river a little below the sawmill site-and there electric power will be generated which will be'transmitted by poles to the works. : _^^.���������. EMPIRE NATURALIZATION British Citizenship to be Valid all Over the Empire Ashnola's and Bertie Allison, a broth er of the late chief, presented the case for the Chii-chu-way-ah's. In reference to; the two burning local questions in> which the Hedley Gold Mining Co. and the Hedley Golf Club were severally interested, the Commission felt that it scarcely came within the scope of their work, but was what they called "departmental" and as such should first come before the Indians themselves and have their consent, after which the Commission would have no objection to grant their recommendation. The resquest of thecompany was for right-of-way for a fiume and pipeline through about 14,000. feet of Indian reservation, the greater part of which was worthless rocky side hill and mountain talus. The ditch moreover would render valuable to the Indians about eight acres,of dry bench land that is now practically worthless for cultivation without water, and the company's scheme . involved the building of a bridge costing about $0,000 which would give, to the Indians access to the land which the ditch made valuable and without a cent of cost to the Indians. The demand made first was for $4000 for the permission and right-of-way and afterwards they agreed to accept $1000 with the exception of Charlie Squakim who wanted $300 additional for going through 2h acres of a dry bench belonging to him. The term specified was 25 years. The Golf Club were also given permission to use the links on the reservation for a term of 25 years on payment of $50 per annum. The club also agreed to assist the Indians in keeping the fence up and anyone who attempts to take liberties with the fence or break in will have to reckon with Golf Club as well as with the Indians. The use of the links was also tendered I)3r tho club to the Indians should any of them wish to take up the game. At the last session held by the Commission on Tuesday, Steve and Don- nell of the reservation at Bromley's applied to. the Commission for an addition of 10,000 acres of pasture land adjoining the reserves at present occupied by them. The Gazette was shown this week a sample of dyke matter taken from anew dyke lately encountered in development The crosscut southward from the face of the Bahrs tunnel has now advanced a distance of over seventy feet'from the.former- and the dyke, matter encountered is very silicious, with chei-ty appearance save that the texture has more of the coarse feel of quartzite than that common to true chert. But the most interesting feature- of the specimen is the plentiful sprinkling through it of phenocrysts of some other hard substance with resinous lustre which it would require a little qualitative work with the blow-pipe to determine, but might be tourmaline or some other hard silicate. Some of them where the fracture of the specimen is along the crystal show lath- shaped, but most of them are broken across and on the fracture they exhibit the same canchoidal fracture as the ground mass of chert. These white dykes in a mineral country are always entitled to respect and it is hoped that in this case the occurrence presages nearness to the ore body. A change has been made in the direction of the drift to more fully investigate the import of this dyke and work will go on for a while to enable the owners to size up the situation in reference* to further work. The Owasco about two and a half miles from Oroville has entered the producing list. It is not yet being operated on a large scale but a ten stamp mill is turning out gold bricks and development is being kept ahead of the milling. There is reported to be a vein from four to eight feet wide between smooth walls and much of the ore runs over $100 to the ton. An aerial tramway is being installed on the Aufeas mine near Hope. Work in the mine has been suspended pending the installation of the tram, as there is no room at the mouth of the tunnel to store ore. An option given last winter to English capitalists for the purchase of 300,000 shares of the stock i.s being taken up and with the installation of the aerial tram regular shipments are to begin. Hon Herbeit Saniu.-;1 the British Postmaster-general who has been touring Canada announced in Montreal that he was bent upon a change of the law at present effecting naturalization in Gt. Britain by which the right of citizenship acquired in any part of the British Empire would he* made to hold good in every other part of the empire. "When I last had the pleasure of meeting Sir Thomas Shaughnessy." said Mr. Samuel, "he spoke of the need of improving, the laws relating to naturalization in the dominionsand in the mother cohntry.-and--.'of;.:sec.'iu"r ing ;*. greater ������������������uniformity in-oiirSiattir-- alization laws. And surely it is as unreasonable and indeed an improper thing, that a man may be naturalized and be regarded as a British subject in one portion of the empire, only to find if he travels to some other part and settles there, he is regarded as an alien without the rights of imperial citizenship. It has Jong been my desire, and it has been advocated after imperial conference that there should be some greater measure of uniformity anel that we should throughout the empire lay down the principle that a man who is a British citizen anywhere in the empire should he a British citiren everywhere in the empire. (Applause.) There have been long negotiations between the various governments concerned in this subject and I am happy to be in a position to announce to you today after communicating', with the imperial government at home that those negotiations are now ended and a bill has been drafted and is now in a form generally agreed upon between the governments in all portions of the empire for the establishment of a uniform imperial naturalization, and that the imperial government hopes to be able to introduce that hill in the next session of the imperial parliament and to find an early opportunity of placing it upon the statute books of the empire. Our government is anxious indeed to take every opportunity, not indeed of intc-rfeience in the domestic concerns of the various states that make up our empire, for the-day of Downing street interference is long ago past, but it is desirous of taking every opportunity of conciliation with the autonomous governments of the dominions in carrying out every measure which will conduce lo the greater unity of our empire." (Applause.) Earl Grey, the former Governor- general of Canada, is backing up Sir Edward Carson in his opposition to Home Rule. The Earl's knowledge of the working of the Canadian constitution has shown him how unpractical the Home Rule bill i.s. If the Home Rule bill had been on the same lines as the Canadian constitution Earl Grey says he would support it but it is not. Ralph Smith has propounded the political scheme of a union between Liberals and Socialists of Birtish Columbia as the only means by which the McBride government may be destroyed anel is not very sanguine whether even that coalition would effect the end sought.

In the first place it was ocular demonstration .of how Mr. Borden redeemed his' pledges. For years with a Liberal adniinstration at Ottawa and a Conservative government in British Columbia, the question of., the tenure.', of Indian lands in this province was made a foot-ball and no settlement could be obtained. The people of British Columbia were even tolel by those whom they had elected to the Dominion House that they must electa government in this province that was acceptable to Sir Wilfrid Laurier or there would lie no settlement of the Songhees or any other reservation question, hut Mr. Borden when leader of the Opposition promised that if his party'were* placed in power at Ottawa, steps would he taken to arrange a basis of settlement which would be fair and just to the Indians on the one hand, who were wards of the Dominion, and Lo the Province of British Columbia on the other. The question is a deep one and for our present purposes no attempt will be made to discuss it on its merits here. Suffice it to say that the Royal Commission who have just honored us with a. visit in their official capacity is an advanced step in fulfilment of the promise which Mr. Borden made. Without more than a mere passing reference to the functions and powers of the Royal Indian Commission than is set'fui th in the report of the visit in another column we may safely claim that the personnell of this Commission is abundant evidence of the candor with which the promise was made and the. honesty and earnestness with which Mr. Borden means to carry it out. For the head of the Commission a man was chosen from the Supreme Court of a western province other than JJriti.-h Columbia which was an iifterested party and the choice fell upon Chief Justice E. L. Wetmore of Saskatchewan whose reputation as an eminent jurist is well known in western Canada. The secretary is Mr. J. G. H. Bergeron an eminent parliamentarian from the province of Quebec who is generally admitted in all parts of the Dominion to be cabinet timber, and but for the fortunes of war- would now he one of Mr. Borden's colleagues in the Federal Ministry. The two men to represent the Domin ion are Dr. ,T. A. J. McKenna and N. W. White, K. C. The-former from his long association with the Indian Department enjoys the distinction of being the best posted .mail in Canada on Indian affairs and is the Indians'best friend, while the latter will look after the constitutional feature of the question. Mr. ������������������ McBride on his part saw that the. province was well repi esent- ed by Mr. James McDowall.nf .Victoria and Mr. J. P. Shaw, M.P.P. of Shus- wa p. On this occasion Mr. Bergeron was not present but his duties were being ably pel formed by Mr. CM. Gibbons ol' Victoria, well-known in B.C. journalism for the past 25 years. The task which they have undertaken of vi-iting evei y reservation in the province, meeting the Indians personally and away from the whites who aie excluded from the Indian meetings���������thus obtaining definite firsthand information to enable them to asceitain conditions as they exist, is no light one, and it is being faithfully performed. Whatever Lheir reports and recommendations may be, when the task is completed it is a verv sure y thing that it will be thorough and just- U and..in the best interests of all concerned. We. have several times thought what, a pity it was that Pauline Johnson was called away when she was needed most. What a service a brainy woman like her, full of love for her own people, could have performed by going among them and explaining to them the pitfalls that lie in their way; and the greatest pitfall of all i.s that which they demand of money payments in full for lands which they may part with.

Schubert went to Victoria last week o'n a business trip. ��������� Thanksgiving Day on Monday next. Do your' shopping on the Saturday ���������before for 'everyhody expects a holiday that day. H. IT. Messenger secured a fine deer ���������on Sunday which places' him pretty ���������well on the way towards securing his complement. ��������� Mr.II. D. Brown of Toronto in whose interests Mr. Poirer i\L E. i.s making cxiiniiiation of the Golden Zone arrived in Hedley on Tuesday and yesterday he went out to the property. The. levelling on the rink is now pretty well finished and with a little trimming and the erection of the fence will he ready for the frost. ' The club has now a good healthy membership ��������� and all are looking forward to a rare winter's sport. The licence of the Princeton hotel in Princeton is heing transferred'froni P. Swanson to Swanson and Broom- field. A. D. Brootnfield who is the new licensee was married recently in Spokane and brought his bride in a "little over a week ago. Boh Plamill who has been in charge ���������of central station for several yeais met witli an accident in which he has experienced hack strain which necessitated a lay-off. He went to Spokane last week and is being relieved at the central by "W. Corrigan. A dance was held in the P'raternity hall on Thursday night last, the object being to secure funds to obtain ���������equipment for basket-ball, for the playing of which a club is to be organ ized in Hedley. There was a good crowd at the dance and a- good time is reported. As an auxiliary to the raising of funds for building an addition to the church for Sunday school purposes to "^^provide accommodation for the infant class,it has peen .decided to give a play abou); the end of this month and practice isX.po.v-.- heing held to that end. .Further particulars will be given later-. In the downpour of rain on Friday last a couple of four-horse freight outfits that were evidently part of some railway contractor's plant, drove into Hedley towards "evening..;' They were evidently on their way from the Okanagan to, so nie'. of the '.'.camps. 'iip":-the: Tulameen;'arid did'.hot" "think* it worthwhile to incur the delay and trouble of transferring to rail. for the short distance up the valley. The continuous rain on Thursday night last and all day Friday had the usual effect of starting rock and earth' movements on the mountain side and that is the time when the flume suffers., This happened to be no exception to the. rule and on Friday evening a slide took out a. section and a half to be followed by another about half an hour later which howled out another four sections. All hands weie put to work on the repair-son Saturday morning and the water was on lutein the afternoon. Mr. I. L. Merrill, president of the Hedley Gold Mining Co., arrived in Hedley on Tuesday. He expects to have a busy time for"a week or more in connection with mine developments and the power question which will be gone into pretty thoroughly. Incidentally too, he brought his golf clubs along, but in veiw of the various trophies he has annexed it would he hard now to find players in Hedley who can give him a sufficiently interesting game without a big handicap. Jack Corrigan and Bob came back last week from their trip to Hope and the coast. During their absence they attended the fairs at Westminster and Victoria. Jack Lyall was with thoin hut was waylaid at Princeton on his wav back by F. P. Cook who requires his services for a few weeks. The trip was made over tho Hope trail both ways and while they intended to do a little hunting anil fishing hy the way they found game very scarce and the fish were not biting worth a cent. ��������� Mrs. F. H. French has to her credit a physical vi'i*at that most of the tiii'ii do not care about tackling and no woman about Hedley but herself has ever attempted. The feat was climbing the Sixteen Mile Creek trail to the Oregon claim and coming back down again the same afternoon. For steepness it is one of the most trying trails in the valley and to make the tramp from the wagon road at Charlie Allison's an altitude of between 3500 and ���������1000 feet has to be overcome. On Saturday afternoon last she accompanied her husband on the trip rip to the claim where development work is still being carried on. They went down to the Allison ranch in the auto and from there the climb began. A .card received from L. W. Shatford M. P. P. after we had gone to press last week, was written by him from Vienna where he had reached after a long auto trip through the heait of Europe front Beilin. It was over historic ground every" foot of which is rich in incident both in history and literature and as such is the property not only of one nation hut of all. ft was, as good Milton himself would put it, to pass twixL "Rhone and thoDanaw." From Vienna he was going lo Home and from there to .Mediterranean points, and some time this month lie. will take ship again for Canada. Last Thursday Robt. Boyd found an odd. bird up on the hill-side above the slime pond. It could not get out of his way and was easily caught. ft was of the diver species but not nearly as large as the- loon and got up on finer lines and answered more nearly the description of the grebe than other divers, for it had the long slender neck of the curlew and long needle pointed bill, but had the short posteriorly placed legs of the regular hell- diver of the duck species so well known on the lakes and streams of B. C. The toes were not web-foot but in separate lobes The head was black with the"-feathers coming to two angle points on either side and the black extended down the back of the long slender ' neck while the breast and throat were white and not ringed like the loon. The neck was fully from S to 10 inches long and not more than about half an inch in diameter at the thinnest point. How it happened to stray tip to the point where it was found i.s the query. It'did not appear t> he hurt nor in pain but was quite lively, only it seemed to be deprived of or to have forgotten all it had ever learned of land locomotion. It died a couple of clays later. So rare a species .should, be stuffed and kept for tiie Provincial museum unless they are stocked up with them already. ��������� The hunting season always sees the usual crop of gun accidents and most of them are the result of carelessness. It was thought that the imposition of a gun.licence would cut out a good few of those from whom the most danger was to be feared, but apparently there are some in possession of licences who are not; sufficiently r-esponsihle to be allowed in^ the hills "yyith , rifles., An example of this was seen a week ago hist Sunday- when George Cahill came- near being killed hy some scatter-brain hunter. He was at work on his ranch when he was made aware of the proximity of a gunman by having some bullets whizziug about his ears. Some one had got a glimpse of him through the brush and taking him for a deer began blazing away. He dropped on the ground at once and shouted lint no attention was paid and the shots continued. Whoever it was the careless huntsman evidently found at once that he had been shooting at a man instead of a. deer and made off, being careful to take the cartridges with him, for when the spot where the shots were coming from was examined, the tracks were seen where he had been shooting but no cartridge shells were left to give a clue. Careless ex* citable brutes like that have no right, to be allowed a license and if it can be found out who the man was the licence he holds should be cancelled.

OCT 16, 1913. \x KEREMEOS, the Centre of Lower Similkameen���������Famed for Fruit Growing Town and Lower Valley. The second car load of apples left Monday for Winipeg. It. O. Brown of Princeton'is visiting Keremeos for a few days. Mr. .George Kiddle was in town last week and called upon the local correspondent. J. J;.Armstrong went up to Princeton for ii couple'of .days-last week on a business trip. Messrs. Wardell and Knudson of Princeton were visitors to town Wednesday of last week. Mi;, and Mrs. Hankinson of Princeton are staying a few days in Kercnieos and are guests at the Keremeos Hotel. Miss Ella-Innis,' Asst. P. M., went over to. Penticton; on Saturday and spcnt'.'the week end with Miss Carrie Crowe of that town. Mrs. -Vacler, we. are pleased to report, is recovering nicely from her PACKING SCHOOLS FOR 1913 Department of Agriculture Makes, Announcement of Conditions Governing Schools - <;��������� sickness and is convalescent enough to be taken out for short- drives.

Mr. Keeler, accompanied by his wife, Mis. D. J. and Miss Annie Innis, drove down in his auto transport to attend the. service. W-.-J. Manery, accompanied by his little daughter, Birdie, drove over to Fentictoir last Wednesday to meet Mis. Manery who has. been on a vacation for the past three weeks visiting her son, Sam Manery, and brother, George McCurdy of Kelowna. They returned home to Siniilkameetr the following day. The Royal Commission of ...Indian affairs, who are making a tour of the. Province to enable them to collect evideuce on and of every Indian reserve, so as to be able to made a full report at a later date paid a visit to Keremeos. The' party arrived at Keremeos Centre on Saturday evening staying at the Central Hotel over the week end, going on to'Hediey on Monday the 13th. Gordon Pyne, driver of Tweddle's auto, encountered a wild storm on his way over to Penticton on Friday evening last. There were eight inches of snow on the summit and for about 1.4. miles they were continually running into trees blown down across the i*oad. They got through to Penticton, but very late owing to the repeated delays. On Saturday night a big lock lossened by the rain came down into the canyon and cut Oft' a tree about two feet through. Pete Bromley and family have moved to their old home at the Centre. All in the lower town will greatly miss the family for they have been in the town for the past five years always helping things along and making things cheery all the time for others. As Pete sold out his blacksmith business and good will to Mr.Madore of Coalniont some two months ago, he of course, does not intend to start any opposition whatever in that line. The committee of last year's "Assembly Dances" got their heads together and framed up a scheme whereby all those that wish to step the light fantastic can do so once more to their hearts content, and that the same committee, will do their host to give each and all as good a time as they know how. A local orchestra will be gotten together and first-class dance music is promised. It was decided to have the dances the first Friday in every month. Small posters will be printed and sent out to all they know both up and down the line. The Ladies Aid will have the Thanksgiving dinner this year, as in previous years. This dinner bas been a great success in the past, so naturally many arc looking forward to the 20th of this month, when the ladies once more get together and give the spread. It's no good working on an empty stomach, come and get filled up again. All those who can generally get away, with a square meal will be taxed 50 cents, and those who mostly get away from this, but are still under the tender age of twelve, will not be charged with what they slip underneath, but the modest sum of 25 cents will be taxed. ' The, Department of Agriculture, in accordance with its policy of the past four years, will continue the fruit packing schools during the coining winter. The class of instruction furnished by t he experts employed by the Department in previous years, has demonstrated its. efficiency-.in-1 meeting the. competition of Oregon and Washington in fruit packing. The experience and standing of the instructors secured and the confidence reposed in them by the Department guarantee to the fruit growers the highest class of instruction. ������������������������������������ As in previous years, the local administration of the packing schools will be placed in the hands of a responsible local body, such as the Far iners' Institute, the Fruit Growers' Association or the Board of Trade. The Department of. Agriculture provides the instructor, and pays his expenses. The Department will also bear the costs of the packing paper, the fruit and all other legitimate expenses, except that of the Secretarial work, which it has been found most satisfactory to leave to local arrangement, and the rent of the hall, and its heating and lighting. The responsible organization in each case will be required to guarantee a minimum''of-'.twelve pupils, but not more than fifteen with the proper qualifications, at a fee of three dollars each, to take the twelve lessons of two and a half hours a lesson, the school extending overthe week. The hall for fifteen pupils must be at least 30 ft. by 15ft., and well lighted. It must be'suffieiehtly heated to prevent chilling of the fingers of the packers, and to prevent freezing of the fruit at night. - The Department will as far as possible, use local fruit. At the time of making application for the packing school, you are requested to reserve fruit at the rate of 2h to 3 poxes per pupil. The harder varieties, such as Ben Davis, are preferred. Fruit must be in good condition, but need not be graded anil none should run under 2} inches in diameter. The Department will pay the legitimate, market price as determined by the instructor on inspection. The instructor will bring with him the necessary packing tables and fruit paper. The Department expects that he will be met on his arrival by some responsible.person, who should provide him with all necessary information, so as to gee the school underway without loss of time. Pupils who gain a score of 75% for efficiency in the packing school, and who put up a creditable pack for the Department prizes the following autumn, will receive a diploma certifying to the same from the Department.

Under Section 10 of the Dominion Seed Control Act all farm and vegetable seeds which are lower than two- thirds the standard vitality of good seed for that particular variety, must be labelled with the percentage of germination. It is the intention of Dominion Department of Agriculture to strictly enforce all the provisions of the Seed Control Act of 1911, and anyone handling seeds should see to it that their seed complies with this Act. The Dominion Sued Laboratory at Calgary, Alberta is at the service of anyone dosirious of having seed tested., either for vitality or weed seed.
