E. Bassett, S. B. Elliott and E.\nJ. Lessard, who have a contract to\ndeliver the iron in the dismantled mill\nto the railroad at Oroville, where it\nis shipped to the person who purchased the plant 'So passes away another\nmonument to the mistakes of mining\npromoters in this locality, who have\ninsisted upon ibuilding a mill before\nthey knew whether they had ore\nenough to keep a mill running, or who\nnave put up the wrong kind of treatment plant to properly treat the ores\nof the mine where the plant has'been\ninstalled. The Stemwinder mill was\nerected in the days when Fairview\nwas one of the warmest little propositions in the way of a mining camp\nin the northwest. To see the sleepy,\ndilapidated remnants of the old camp\ntoday one could hardly be led to believe that a score or more years ago\nFairview gave employment to a large\nforce of men and hopes ran high for\nmaking that one of the most profitable mining districts in British Columibia. A vast amount of money was\nspent in development, most of the\ncash coming from English investors.\nWhether the ore was too low grade,\nor because development was not carried far enough to establish the true\nextent and value of the ores, is not\nknown, but all at once the bottom fell\nout of Fairview, mining operations\nceased and the town died of dry rot.\nOne of the most ambitious of the\nseveral promotions was the Stem-\nwinder mine. Much underground\nwork was done, and a 70-stamp mill\nwas installed. Installing a stamp mill\nin those days at a place so remote\nfrom transportation was a cruelly expensive undertaking, but the mill was\nbuilt and equipped with all modern\nmachinery, that is, modern for that\nday and age. The mill ran only a\nshort time when the bubble burst, and\nfrom, that day to this never a wheel\nhas turned and the plant has fallen\ninto decayl We are informed that a\nSpokane junk dealer purchased the\nentire equipment at the rate of 95\ncents a hundred pounds as scrap iron,\nand the boys who are doing the hauling are to truck the old wreck to\nOroville. It is stated that there are\n500 tons or more of machinery that\ngoes into the scrap heap. It was a\nsad experience for those who put their\nmoney on the Stemwinder as a winner, hut the same mistake has been\nmade in every mining district in the\nworld.\nREWARD   OF   MERIT\n8. O. Land Co. Appreciates Services\nof Ranch Manager\nOroville.\u2014Most of our residents are\nacquainted with Val Haynes, who\nlives immediately across the line in\nBritish Columbia, as he is a frequent\nvisitor in Oroville. For years Mr.\n(Haynes has been resident manager of\nthe Southern Okanagan Land and\nCattle company. Until the British\nColumbia officials secured the valley\nlands to carry out a vast irrigation\nscheme for the benefit of the veterans\nof the big war the Southern Okanagan\nLand and Cattle company owned this\nvast stretch of territory and ran large\nherds of cattle, and Mr. Haynes has\nhad supervisory direction of that land\nand management of those herds. Of\ncourse that large capitalized company\ngoes out of business, but it is not a\nheartless corporation as it does not\nthrow its faithful manager overboard\nto shift for himself, although he is\nperfectly capable of doing so if put\nto the tried. We are reliably informed that the company lor which he\nhas so loyally labored is to make Mr.\nHaynes a present of the alfalfa ranch\nat the foot of Vasseaux lake as a requital for his years of service. No\none can realize what a handsome reward that gratuity is except those\nfamiliar with the land in question.\nIt Is doubltful if there is a more valuable hay ranch in British Columbia,\nand surely not one anore beautifully\nsituated. The Okanagan river flows\nthrough it; it* is (bounded on the north\nby Vasseaux lake, a sheet of water\nfor its size unsurpassed for its beauty, the land is thoroughly irrigated,\nis covered with a velvet carpet of\nalfalfa, and scattered over a portion\nof it are magnificent large forest\ntrees. The land Is as level as a floor\nand yields a very large tonnage of\nhay every year. The farm consists of\n160 acres and is said to be valued at\n$30,000. It is a princely present and\nits value indicates how Mr. Haynes'\nservices over a long period of years\nare appreciated by the company with\nwhich he has been employed.\nSettle Date for Trial\nVancouver.\u2014'John Kidston, of Kelowna, will sell his 1919 crop to Stirling & IPitcairn Limited, of Vernon,\nibut on September 10 a Supreme Court\ntrial will' be held of two actions in\nwhich each party is suing the other.\nAn injunction granted a week ago\npreventing Mr. Kidston from selling\nhis crop to anybody but Stirling &\nPitcairn Limited, remains in effect\nuntil that date. Mr. Kidston's action\nis for an accounting of the firm's\ndealings with his crops and the firm\nis suing for enforcement of its contract. The subject is of great interest\nto fruit growers in the Okanagan as\nthe litigation affects the marketing\nof their crops.\nSECOND EDITION OF WRIGLEY'S\n8. C. DIRECTORY JUST ISSUED\nThe 1919 Edition of Wrigley's British\nColumbia Directory Is Just\nOff the Press\nThe past year has been an increase\nof 32 places in the province that last\nyear were not on the map. In all\n2042 cities, towns and settlements are\ndescribed giving geographical location, local resources, population, etc.,\nfollowed by a list of business firms,\nresidents and fanners.\nMr. Roy F. Wrigley, editor, states\nthat the increase in number of pages\nfrom 960 to 1400 in this year's edition\nis made up mainly in new names and\noccupations of returned citizens who\nwere last year on active service.\nThe Directory is an index of the\nwhole province, and in addition to the\ndescription of 2042 places, contains\na classified business directory under\n446 headins, a trade name and brand\nsection, and also gives a 100 page\nYear Book containing not only a list\nof all provincial government ministers and .Department officials but a\nsynopsis of the jurisdiction of each\ndepartmental of the functions of near\nly every important official, and a\nsummary of important legislation.\nThere is also a concise history of the\nprovince, illustrated.\nThe price of the Directories is $10,\nand is published by Wrigley Directories, (Ltd., Metropolitan Building,\nVancouver.\nSafeguard Domestic Water\nSummerland\u2014To make sure that\nSummerland does not run short of\ndomestic water during the winter,\nthe council has instructed Engineer\nFawkes to make an early report on\nthe condition and capacity of the pipe\nfrom the intake on Trout Creek to\nthe reservoir. The volume of water\nthat has been coming through this\npipe has been insufficient and each\nwinter the channel which carries the\nirrigation water from the creek to the\nreservoir has had to be opened and\nwater put through. This is very expensive and with the new and larger\nflume would be quite inadvisable to\nundertake. The pipe now in was said\nto be of sufficient capacity and was\nput in for the purpose of providing\nample water to maintain the level of\nthe reservoir throughout the winter.\nEngineer Fawkes will make an examination and report at once, according to instructions given by the council on Tuesday.\nIs Dryest Season Here\nSummerland \u2014 There have been\ndrier months in the same season in\nother years than were May, June or\nJuly of this year, but not in the history of Summerland has there been\nas dry a three months in the same\nseason as the past three. In that time\nthere was a total precipitation of 1.37\ninches recorded at the government\nmeteorological station at the Balcomo\nRanch.

This is the\ncheering news given The Review by\nMr. iR. Johnston, who has just returned from a visit to the reservoirs at\nthe head of Trout creek. He went\nup Monday morning, accompanied by\ntwo men who have remained to cut\na channel into one of the lakes which\nwill permit of lowering its level considerably, thus making it a larger\nfeeder for the main reservoir. Othar\nlakes rand beaver dams will be opened, all of which will help to maintain\nthe flow of water in Trout creek. The\nreservoir on Canyon creek has not\nyet heen opened. This is usually left\nuntil the end of the season.\nMr. Johnston states that he cut a\ntrail through to a large lake at the\nheadwaters, which can be made to\nhold much more water at little cost.\nAt its outlet is an abandoned beaver\ndam, which can be repaired and a\nfew concrete pipes put in to permit\nof further lowering.\nThe fact that Summerland after the\ndryest sealer, in the history of irrigation here ft'll has a good supply\nof water in reserve is very gratifying,\nas is also the fact that further storage\nmay be had at comparatively small\ncost. All this confirms the claim for\nSummerland that it has one of the\nbest water systems to be found anywhere. Already the envy of other\ncommunities not so fortunately situated, Summerland, with a little further expenditure on storage and the\ncompletion of its programme of improved distribution will be among the\nmost fortunate irrigation, districts of\nthis continent.\nIrrigation Bond Issue\nSummerland\u2014-Bylaws No. 107 and\n108 authorizing further work on the\nirrigation system and raising by debenture loan the $75,000 required for\nsame were given the customary readings at the last council meeting and\nare now ready to be submitted to the\nratepayers. These bylaws are pub- i\nlished in this number of The Review.\nClerk Nixon will be returning officer.\nWashington, Aug. 21-~*President\nWilson has not the power to declare a separate peace with Germany, he says, in answering the\nqueries put to him by Senator\nFall, one of the senatorial irrecon-\ncilables. Even had he that power\nhe would not exercise it, because\n\"it would put a stain on our national honor whioh nothing could\nafterwards efface.\" The president\nsays speedy raifification of the\ntreaty by the senate would have\na tendency to stabilize world conditions and reduce the cost of\nliving.

This\nis the third year that the Eaton company has purchased Mr. Coleman's\ncrop and speaks well for the quality\nof fruit shipped. Last year, owing to\nthe' frost,\" the Eaton company were\nunable to purchase their apples in the\nvalley and bought from Kelowna, but\nwe are glad to see this firm come\nright back to Grand Forks and purchase their fruit here when possible,\nas Winipeg is certainly a good advertising center for Grand 'Forks fruit.\nConsiderable money has been sent\naway from this district to Eaton's and\nit is gratifying to see some of it forced\nto come back into^t^t district each\nyear. Mr^Colemah states that the\ngross receipts of his crop | will be\naround $7,000.\nC. P. R.

Cukes\narrive almost yellow in color; cutting\nthem reveals that they are not ripe\nand have been shipped in good table\ncondition. We would say from observation that shipping apricots and\npeaches or musk melons should not\nbe in mixed cars with vegetables, and\nfield cukes should never be shipped\nIn an iced car, in fact it is questionable if an iced car is of any value in\nshipping potatoes, cabbage or any\nvegetables except celery. L.C.L. express shipments in ordinary line cars\nare arriving in much better condition.\nExpress L.C.L. shipments of peaches\nand apricots are arriving better than\nin refrigerator cars. We have refrigeration under observation and will\nreserve further comments until tests\nare made. These are promised by the\nDominion officials next spring. We\nwill, however, suggest that experiments with cool circulation be tried\nas we are confident that ice cooling\nis detrimental to some fruits.\nWinnipeg, Aug. 15.\u2014The last car of Tragedy, $2.50;  peaches, $1.75;  cots.,\nPrince To Go  Up  Lake\nKelowna-Owing to a change which\nhas been made in the itinerary of the\nPrince of Wales and party on their\nvisit to the west, the interesting announcement has been made in an official communication to tne Mayor\nthat Kelowna is to be included in the\nlist of places visited.

R., in\nToronto, was one\nof that picturesque type of railroad man which\nIs passing into\nhistory;-f|||\nThe older generation will recall the figure he\nmade a quarter\nof a century ago\nwhen he was su-\npietrintendieinit for\nthe C. P. R. He\nwore a frock cosut,\na wide - brtamied\n6louch hat, amd\nemoked a pljipe of\nBlight propoptlSeJi.\nThe hat became\ne sort of landmark. It was a\n6 y m b o I around\nthe C. P. R. To\nSt, one oame for\nthe brief, busl-\ncess-liitee \"yea\" or the late j   W> LEONARD\nSzeS  \"jtomS\"   Well-known Railway Man, for Many Years a\nLeonard's abrupt Leading Official of the C. P. R.\nand efficient administration.   But the hat began to show signs o* decay.\nHowever jauntily \"J. W.\" cocked it over one eye, it wilted and faded.   So\nhis good friend, W. R. Callaway, now general passenger agent of the Soo\nline, took Mr. Leonard up on the hat question and urged him to get a new\none.\n\"What for?\" demanded J. W. \"Nobody would know me in another hat!\nThis is my crown!    Nothing doing!\"\nMr. Callaway finally offered to buy a new hat, and J. W. said: \"You*!*\non.\"\nA new derby was purchased, sleek, and in the latest fashion of the\neighteen nineties. J. W. put it on, and ordered the famous old slouch hat\nto be sent home.\n.Next morning. J. W. appeared on the job in the old slouch hat!\nAnother anecdote Indicates the late Mr. Leonard's quiet but effectlva\nmethod of brushing away the vanities of human nature. A young man\napplied for a job to him.   This young man was sporting a walking stick.\n\"I'm afraid we can't do anything for you,\" said Mr. Leonard. \"W\u00ab\n\u00a9an.'t n?p a lame man.\"\n\"But I'm not lame!\" protested the applicant.\n\"Then why the cane?\" asked J. W.\nThe applicant got the job, but.he discarded the stick and also a certain\nfram\u00b0 of mind out of which the stick arose.\nMr. Leonard was a man of few words, a trait that endeared hito to his\nmany friends and which secured him in the high esteem of the thousand*\nof business men with whom he dealt for the railway. glli\nOf his old comrades in the old Credit Valley Railway enterprise, only\nfour are left:    Mr. R. M. Callaway, general passenger agent of the Soo line;!\nMr. Alf. Price, general manager of the C. P. R.; Mr. H. E. Suckling, treasurer C. P. R.. and Mr. A. L. Herzberg. divisional engineer.\nHIS GREAT LOVE OF WORK.\nDeep down In the recesses of his nature, it would appear that the l\u00bbt\u00bb\nJ. W. Leonard, whose life-motto was. \"I want to do the work entrusted to.\nme in the very best way that I can.\" should have been eager for the appro-,\nbation of his fellows. In a scrapbcok. containing the clippings of news-,\npapers for the past twenty vears. there if a letter from Lord Shaughnessy,\ncongratulating him upon the manner in which he had moved the wheat crop\nout during his first year as assistant superintendent of the western division. It is evident that he valued the letter as an evidence of work wellj\ndone, rather than a? \"\u2022\u00bb approval of the bead of the system.\nETO\nThe Hubtof the Similkameen\nWWHWJMJWgSK!\n^mmSmmmm^^^\nCoal, Lode and Placer\nUnexcelled Advantages for the Investor and Home Builder\nElectric Light System, Water for Domestic Purposes and Good Fire Protection\nPRINCETON  COALlAND  LAND CO., LTD\nIt.
