McElmon, who died a few days\nago'in the hospital of Grand Forks, in\n_ the , Kootenay district of British\nColumbia. Born 85 years ago, Mr.\nMcElmon used to declare with justifi-\nablejpride that he had never missed\ngoing to the polls to vote in a federal\nelection since Confederation. He was\njust old enough to vote the first contest,\nand hef;!never became too old nor ailing\nin health .to get out on election day and\ndeclare himself for one or other of. the\ncandidates in the field. At the last\nelection, he .travelled several miles to\nreach the polling station where he was\nregistered. It was his sixteenth\" federal\ngeneral vote.\nQuite a number of friends of tlie\nBritish Columbia mining camps mourned the old gentleman's death. He had\nbeen prospector, jeweller and deputy\nmining recorder. But outside his immediate circle of acquaintances, the\nsteady voter was unknown. However,\nMr. McElmon, has established'a record\nthat' few, if any, can approach., If\nevery \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Canadian was sufficiently interested in the affairs of his nation \"to go\nto the polls at each election, we would\n\"have truly representative and democratic government.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdThe Border Cities\nStar, Windsor.\nVancouver.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\"Never felt better in my\nlife,\" exclaimed Premier *-S. F. Tolmie,\nas he stepped from the train to the\nstation platform on May. 11th on his\nreturn from the East, where he has\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd'been enjoying the first real holiday lie\never took\". \"You can tell- the man who\nstarted the story that I intend to resign\nfrom the office to which the people of\nBritish Columbia. have elected me, he\nwill grow so thin he'll blow away.\nAlthough he has been holidaying,\nand the beneficial effects of his period\nof rest are manifest in' his healthy\nappearance and springy step, Premier\nTolmie has been doing a great deal of\nuseful work for British Columbia while\nhe has been away. He told of some of\nthe things, that have been claiming his\nattention, and the results that wore attained.\nFollowing conferences with the Dominion Government, Deputy Minister of\nthe Interior W. W. Cory will arrive in\nVictoria within two weeks, to complete\nnecessary arrangements with the Provincial Government in reference to the\nreturn of the railway-belt lands to the\nProvince. .\nAnother important announcement\nmade by the Premier was to the effect\nthat Hon. Charles Stewart, Minister of\nLands, has consented to assist the joint\nsurvey to be made by the Provincial\nGovernment and the two transcontinental railways, of the natural resources\nof the P.G.E.- by loaning two Dominion\nGovernment airplanes.\nPremier Tolmie further discussed\nwith the Ontario Government the extension to that province of the market\nfor British Columbia, loganberry, pro-\nructs, and anticipates very satisfactory\nresults.\nBritish \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Columbia is compelling a\ngreat deal of interest in the East, stated\nthe'Premier, and developments in this\nprovince are being* closely watched by\ncapitalits.\nThe United States tariff proposals,\nhe \"added, are the subject of much comment\".\". He gave \"as his.\"opinioh that the\nchanges proposed by the Hoover measure would seriously affect' Canadian\nproduction and markets. This was especially so iri connection with' shingles\nand cedar lumber in British Columbia,\ndressed beef trade in Toronto and Winnipeg, dairy products in Quebec and\nOntario, - and the. pork and live hog\nproduction in the East generally.\n\"I do not say that we should_ increase\noiir~tariff\"simply to effect reprisals,\" he\nsaid. \"But I contend that if the policy\nof the United States will aid industry\nand benefit that country generally, a\nsimiliar policy would do so for Canada.\nIt is time that Canada was operated\nfor the benefit of Canadians.\"\nAIRPLANE TO TAKE\nPROSPECTORS TO INGENIKA\n- Airplanes are to be used by Hercules Mining, Smelting & Power Company to send a prospecting party from\nVancouver into the Ingenika and other\nnorthern districts in the province.\nThis company, now 'operating, in the\ndistrict about Grand Forks and Greenwood, and which bids fair to be an important factor in that section, plans to\nextend operations to the Coast, it will\nmake its headquarters0: on the Coasta t\nVancouver. ,[\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd;\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd:'\nHercules Consolidated is now, employing about 100 men and is looking\nforward to developing one or two large\noperations.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdWestern Canada Mining\nNews. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd    [y.     .,\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd .,,   '.:,'\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd''. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd'\"'\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd[.\nMAY RECOVER MILLIONS\nFROM OLD SLAG DUMP AT\nWORLD'S LARGEST SMELTER\nINGRAM BRIIDGE\nMEMORIAL SERVICE\n-The annual Memorial Service will be\nheld at the Monument ~at Ingram\nBridge on Friday, May 24th, at 1 p.m.\nJames Kerr, of Penticton, one of the\nbest known old timers bf the district\nwill give the address.

For many years the Archives Department of British Columbia has been\ncollecting the records of the pioneers,\nand has amassed a great quantity of\nmanuscript material, photographs, etc..\nwhich* forms a wonderful repository of\nhistorical information and is also a\ntribute to the memory, of our pioneers.\nIt is well that there should be in the.\nCapital of the Province a department,\none of whose \"duties is the collection arid\nreverential care of material relating to\nthose who pioneered in our great province and laid the foundations for our\npresent prosperity._ In your district,\nthere may be some pioneers or their\ndescendants who have in their possession original letters, diaries, account\nbooks, journals, note books, photographs or other material which ought\nproperly to find a resting place in the\nProvincial Archives. If so, I beg to\nmake an appeal to them to deposit the\nsame with the Department, which\nwould be proud to receive them and to\ntake every possible care of them for all\ntime. All too often the original manuscripts or papers of our pioneers disappear; Sometimes they are unthinkr\ningly destroyed. In other... cases, they\nare simply buried away and forgotten,\nand there is in any case always' a\ndanger of loss by fire, whereas at Victoria the documents are kept in an\nabsolutely fireproof building. No matter\nhow trivial or unimportant certain\npapers may seem to their owner, they\nmay have a distinct value in after years.\nThe undersigned will welcome correspondence from any persons in your\ndistrict having any class of the above\nmentioned material in their possession,\nwith a view to the same being acquired\nby purchase or gift for the Provincial\nArchives.\nYours sincerely,\nJOHN HOSIE,\nProvincial' Archivist,\nParliament Buildings,\n.Victoria, B.C.\nA Prize List\nS.

The world calls\nfor educated people who are efficient\nand eflicient people who are educated.\nMost of all is needed education for\nefficiency, for service.\nReal education is not so much the\nlearning of what we do not know as the\ndoing of what we do not now do.\nin the field after cutting did not injure\nthe sweet clover for silage but longer\nperiods should be avoided especially if\ntho weather is dry and hot.\nIn regions where red clover grows\nwith success, it is usually made into\nhay but the experiments conducted at\nthe Experimental Farm indicate that\nthis crop will also produce good silage.\nRed clover cut when in full bloom and\nensiled within two or three hours produced silage which always came out of\nthe silo in splendid condition.\n\"Mixtures of oats and peas, and oats,\npeas and vetches which were cut when\nthe oats were in the early dough stage\nyielded silage of the best quality. At\nthis stage of growth the crop is usually\nshowing faint evidence of beginning to\nchange from a green to a ripe colour.\nA few hours of wilting in the field did\nnot affect the quality of ' the silage\nsecured from these mixtures, When\nthe crop was wilted for more than three\nor four hours in the hot sun there was\na tendency for pockets of mold to be\nformed in the silo when this over-\nwilted material was ensiled.\nNo commonly grown hay crop exceeds alfalfa in value and this crop\nshould be made into hay rather than\ninto silage. In fact alfalfa has proven\nin these:experiments the most diffcult\ncrop to ensile, frequently producing\nvery unpalatable silage. When a successful method is developed for making\nalfalfa into silage it might be found\nprofitable to store this crop in the silo.\nAlthough difficulties were encountered\nin the successful ensiling of alfalfa, experiments have shown that when the\nnatural moisture of the alfalfa plants,\nwhich were cut in full bloom, was\nreduced by wilting the cut crop for five\nhours in the sun, good silage -was\nsecured in most of -the trials.. In- two\ninstances' where this. practice was folr\nlowed, however, the weather prevailing'\nwhen the \"crop was being wilted in the\nfield was particularly dry - and - hot,\nand the alfalfa became overwilted pro-,\nducing moldy pockets in the silo. The\naddition of green material with a high\ncontent of carbohydrates also proved\nto be of some value in making successful silage from the alfalfa crop. When\nunwilted full-bloom alfalfa was mixed\n:with_25_per^cent-timothy-a^silage-of-\ngood quality was secured in three trials,\nbut in one other trial the silage was\nonly fair. Leaving the alfalfa until ten\ndays after full bloom' before cutting,\nand ensiling it without wilting, gave .a\nvery promising result in one trial conducted last year. While these experiments have not yet definitely solved the\nproblem of successfully ensiling alfalfa,\nconsiderable progress has .been made.\nMAKING SILAGE FROM LEGUMES\nSweet clover, red clover and a mixture of oats, peas and vetches have\nbeen made into very palatable silage\nwith little difficulty. More trouble,\nhowever, has been experienced in\nmaking desirable silage from alfalfa.\nFor the past five years extensive experiments have been conducted at the\nCentral Experimental Farm at Ottawa\nto determine the best methods of\nmaking silage from the legume .crops\nmentioned above, and considerable information is now available on this subject.\nIt has been found that sweet clover\nmakes the best quality of silage if the\ncrop is cut when half the -plants are\nshowing their first blossoms. While\nsome little difficulty \"has been experienced in harvesting green sweet clover\nwith the binder, the ease with which\nthe bound sheaves are handled-to the\nsilo has more than offset the difficulties met in harvesting the crop in this\nmanner.

Right, Thoir Excellencies Viscount nnd Lady Willingdon and tho\nC.P.S.S. \"Princess Norah\" on which the first vice-regal tour of the west coast of Vancouver Island .was \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd made.\nVV7 hen Viscount Willingdon, Gov-\nw ernor-General of Canada, and\nLady Willingdon visited the West\nCoast of Vancouver Island on the\ninaugural cruise of the new Canadian Pacific steamer \"Princess\nNorah\" two new epochs were marked for that far-flung corner of the\nDominion.\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd It was the first time tliat a Canadian Viceroy had ever, seen, and\nin turn, been seen on the rugged\ncoast that is now -looming as one\nof the nation's important industrial\nand tourist regions;-further the\narrival of the Norah brought the\nmost'luxurious passenger steamer\never to ply in regular service in\nWest Coast waters, now to bethe\npermanent-run of the staunch little\nClyde-built vessel.\n-The West Coast had decked itself\nin gala attire for the visit of'the\ngreat white chief from Ottawa,\ntremendous excitement prevailing\namong whites and Indians alike at\nthe various ports of call. Local interest was heightened by the fa~ct\nthat Their Excellencies cast formality to the four winds, and entered into the spirit of the many\nreceptions and celebrations with a\nzest not exceeded by any tourist\non the coast. Incidentally, Lord\nWillingdon intimated after the ter\nmination of his voyage that it\nwould not be the last occasion ou\nwhich he would see that particular\npart of Vancouver Island.\nLoyalty of the Indians, evident\nat all points touched, was particularly demonstrated at Friendly\nCove, historic spot discovered by\nCaptain . Cook in 1778, when a\nlineal descendant of the great\nChief Maquinna, who first saw the\nwhite man, gathered his tribe, the\nNootka Indian band, in the great\ncouncil hall to greet the vice-regal\nparty. It was.here that Lord and\nLady Willingdon were, recipients\nof one of the most valuable gifts in\nthe bestowal of the coast Indians,\na huge forty-foot totem pole that\nhas stood for years on the sandy\nshores of Friendly Cove, the envy\nof collectors from many parts of\nthe world.\nPresentation of the totem was.\ntouching in its simplicity yet its'\nsignificance was not lost. Chief\nNapoleon, head of the Nootka\nBand, descendant of Maquinna, wa:\nthe council hall, and Chief Jack,\nanother *\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd> of v the Nootka Band,\nmounted' the pedestal to: deliver an\nimpassioned peroration in his.native tongue.\nHis Excellency stood attentively\nuntil the Indian Chief had finished\nhis speech, taking it, probably, for\nthe- usual honeyed words of. welcome.-His astonishment and that\nof many of the chief's hearer's was\ngreat when \"Billy\" Lord; well-\nknown industrial leader. - on.\" the\nwest coast.acting in the role of unofficial interpreter, told His Excellency that Captain Jack had presented the big forty-foot carving\nas a gift.'\nSignificance of the gift lies in\nthe tremendous value which the\nIndians themselves place on their'\nhistorical totems. It would 'have\nbeen a somewhat parallel-case, one\nof the men familiar with .west\ncoast customs said, if a white man, *\non being' visited by vice-royalty,\nhad with one magnificent gesture\ngiven. away   his   home   and   the\nfirst to extend the Indians' official j greater part of his fortune,\nwelcome, elaborate ceremony whicli | , Their Excellencies, sensing this,\nIncluded the f?mous dance of the;accepted the.'gift with delight, and\nThunder Bird marking this, part j announced that plans would be\nof the rites. Later, the Indians led , made to have it removed from its\nthe vice-regal party to the site of . present historical setting to Rideau\na huge totem pole standing near '\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Hall as soon as possible,  __, 'THURSDAY, MAY 1G, 10S().\nTHE SftEENWOOf) LEDGE\nHere and Th\nere\n(297)\nArthur W.
