McNichol of Lethbridge.\nwho broached the question of sending\nan exhibit and who asked the council\nto recommend to the hoard of trade\nthat a resolution be passed endorsing\n- a proposal that British Columbia\nshould make a financial grant towards\nthe expenses of the congress, at which\neverything will he free of charge, Tho\ncouncil made the recommendation and\nMr. McNichol left for Victoria y^ter-\nday to discuss the matter with Premier McBride.\nFred A. Starkey, who was in the\nchair, explained the objects of Mr. Mo\nNichol's visit to Nelson and remarked\nupon the almost world-wide application that waB possible for dry farming\nmethods.\nScientific Farming Better Term.\nThe subject of dry farming was one\nof great interest to everyone engaged\nin agriculture and horticulture, said\nMr. McNichol, who declared that the\nInternational Dry Farming congress\nwas the highest court of reference In\nagricultural matters. The words \"dry\nfarming\" was frequently a stumbling\nblock and really meant \"scientific\nfarming.\" It really concerned all\nkinds of farming and affected the conservation of moisture In the soil. He\nreferred to the fact that the congress\nhad members fn all the six continents\nand of the heavy foreign representation which was expected at Lethbridge\nnext October.

B. Farris said that he was a\ngreat believer in dry fanning methods\nand moved, seconded by W. F. Roberts, that the council recommend that\nthe board pass a resolution askfng the\ngovernment to make a grant.\nMethods of Great Value Here.\nThe chairman Bald that from his experience of fruitgrowing dry farming\nmethods would prove of great benefit\nto this district, even though Irrigation\nwas not generally necessary. He\npointed out that the commercial value\nof fruit grown without irrigation was\nmuch greater than that raised with the\nassistance of artificially applied water.\nA. S. Horswill thought steps should\nhe taken towards preparing the best\nexhibit the district could produce.\nC. R. Hamilton, K.

The field crops of Canada are shown\nto have occupied last year a total of\n32,853,000 acres, and their value calculated at the lotal market prices,\namounts to (656,712,000.\nThe area under wheat laBt year was\n10,340,000. acres, of which 1,172,000\nacres were, fall wheat ln Ontario and\nAlberta, and the production was 215,-\nS51.000 bushels o fthe value of $138,-\n507,000. Spring wheat produced 2,041,-\n000 bushels of the value of $$1,461,000.\nOats occupied 0,220,000 icres and\nyielded 348,180,000 bushels, of the\nvalue of $126,812,000.\nBarley, 1,404,000 acres, yielding 40,-\n640,000 bushels, of the value of $23,\n004,000, and flax 1.116,000 acres, yielded 12,021,000 bushels, of the value of\n$10,467,000.\nThe combined area under rice, peas,\nbuckwheat, mixed grains and flax waB\n2,481,000 acres; the yield was 44,986,-\n000 bushels, and the value $41,560,000.\nHoed and cultivated crops, comprising beans, corn for husking, potatoes,\nturnips and other roots, except sugar\nbeets, occupied 1,063,000 acres and\nyielded 170.884.000 bushels, of the\nvalue of $73,290,000.\nSugar beet in Ontario and Alberta\nhad an acreage of 20,873 and a yield\nof 17,000 tons of sugar, of the value\nof $1,165,000.\nFodder crops, including fodder corn,\nhay, clover and alfalfa, show an acreage of 18,290,000, a production of 15,.\n459,000 tons and a value ot $161,.\n314,000.\nAverage Yield of Alfalfa.\nAlfalfa, a record which was taken\nfor the first time, shows an area of\n110,781 acres, with a yield of 227,900\ntons, of the value of $2,240,000. This\nvaluable fodder crop is being principally grown in Ontario, Quebec and Alberta, the average yield per acre for\nthe whole of Canada being 3U tons.\nFor the year 1911 the acreage from\nwhich the yields are calculated are\nthose of the recent census and the resulting dates are therefore not strictly\ncomparable with the estimates of the\nthree previous years, which were\nbased upon the reports of select correspondents. A most satisfactory criterion of the difference between the\ntwo seasons 1910 and 1911, is afforded\nby the average rates of yield per acre\nwhich for fall wheat was 22.9 bushels\nln 1911, against 23.49 In 1910; spring\nwheat 20.63, against 15.30; oats 37.76,\nagainst 32.79; barley 28.994, against\n24.62, and flax 11.41 .against 7 97. In!\nthe three northwest provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, the\nwheat production was 194,403,000\nbushels, compared with 128,891,000\nbushels.\nBy provinces the total value of all\nfield crops in 1911 was as follows:\nPrince Edward Island, $8,846,700;\nNova Scotia, $14,275,900; New Brunswick, $1*1,789,000; Quebec, $108,187,-\n000; Ontario, $193,260,000; Manitoba,\n$73,136,000; Saskatchewan, $107;i47^\n000; Alberta, $47,760,000; British Columbia, $1,120,001).\nVOTE TO STRIKE\nLondon Coal   Dealers Reap\nRich Harvest\nPRICE INCREASED\nTO CONSUMERS\nGovernment Greatly Alarmed\nat Prospect of Walk-Out\nNext March\nLONDON, Jan. 14.\u2014Coal dealers\nhere are reaping a rich harvest ai\nconsequence of the ballot of the coal\nminers which unofficial reports state\nto be In favor of a strike for a fixed\nminimum wage.

JANUARY  15\nMANY HOMESTEADERS PROM\nUNITED STATES\nThe Btatement giving the nationality\not those who took up homesteads ln\nwestern Canada last year Is extremely\nInteresting and significant. It shows\nthe Bources from which the permanent\npopulation of the west Is being recruited, and throws some light upon\nthe political tendencies of the prairie\nprovinces, and especially of Alberta\nand Saskatchewan in which the majority of the homesteads were secured.\nIgnoring a total of 1,834 homesteaders who had previously made entry\nfor free land, and regarding whose nationality no particulars are given in\nthe dispatch from Ottawa, an analysis\nof-the figures shows that of those who\ntook homesteads last year, 13,192 were\nCanadians, 12,485 were from the United\nStates, 7,944 were from the United\nKingdom and 8,968 were foreigners\nfrom Europe. In course of time, probably most of the foreign settlers will\nbecome assimilated, and in sentiment\nand aspirations will be Canadians,\nloyal to the land of their adoption and\nsingle hearted in their desire to support Canadian political institutions,\nto foster Canadian nationality and\nto promote the general welfare of the\ncountry- But this can only be complete after the new arrivals have had\ntime and Opportunity Ao understand\nand appreciate the advantages of Canadian institutions' and to imbibe Canadian sentiment. It is impossible to\nsuppose that affection for the land of\ntheir birth and a preference for the\nSPENCER'S\nGrinds carvers, axes, skates, scissors,\netc. Files saws, keys etc. Repairs\numbrellas, etc\ninstitutions with which they have heen\nfamiliar will be Immediately merged\nin a new born patriotism.\nOf all those who took up homesteads\nlast year Canadians were the most numerous, but the number of citizens of\nthe United States was far greater than\nthose from Great 'Britain or foreign\ncountries, and only some seven hundred less than the Canadian homesteaders, no less than 12,485 former residents of the United States having secured free land in Canada.\nThese settlers from the United\nStates are welcome. They understand\nconditions. in the west and In many\nrespects are the most desirable of\nimmigrants. It will not be long before\nthey become Canadians In the truest\nsense, hut in the earlier years of their\nsettlement In Canada their political\noutlook must necessarily be affected\nby the love which they bear to the\nland of their birth and by the admiration with which they have been taught\nto regard the institutions of the United\nStates. This tendency is a factor\nwhich must be reckoned with In estimating the point of view from which\nAlberta and Saskatchewan are likely\nto regard great \"public questions in\nCanada. A large proportion of the\nvoters in these two provinces are by\nbirth citizens of the United States and\ncomparatively recent arrivals in\nthe Dominion.\nThe reciprocity question probably\nappealed to the new comers from the\nUnited States from considerations that\nhad little or no effect upon other sections of the electorate, and the large\nproportion of settlers from the United\nStates in Alberta and Saskatchewan\nhad doubtless a good deal to do with\nthe verdict which these provinces returned. It is natural that the new\narrivals from the States should have\nregarded the measure as a link between\nthe country of their adoption and the\nland of their birth and perhaps as the\nfirst step toward an amalgamation upon which they would look with favor.\nOn the question of reciprocity Alberta\nand Saskatchewan were out of touch\nwith the sentiment of -the majority of\nCanadians and in opposition to the\nwishes of British Columbia and Manitoba. In estimating the cause for this\ncondition the large proportion of voters whose birthplace is the United\nStates should not be forgotten.\nSpecial\nSnap\nTwo\nCity\nCorner\nLots\nOne block from   car   line.\nPrice\n$325\nthe Pair\nWell worth $500.\nThis  is a good investment\nand will make you money,\nMcQuarrie & Robertson\nReal  Estate, Fruit Lands\nFire, Llf>, Aeeldent Insurance.\nAt Our  New  Offices.\nMadden Blook       Nelson, B.C.\nPhone 68\nPHYSICIANS COULD\nNOTJELP HER\n\"FRUIT-A-TIVES\" CURED HER\nMountain, Ont., March 9th.\n\u2022*I have taken \"Fruit-a-tives\" with\nthreat benefit.

FRIDAY\nENCOURAGING THE CADET\nMOVEMENT\nThe plan of Col. Hughes to provide\nnext July a weeks training in camps of\ninstruction for 40,000 school cadets is\nan offifclal recognition of the value\nof the work being performed under the\nauspices of the Strathcona trust and\ninvolves the Incorporation of the cadet\nmovement In the defensive forces of\nthe country. It is an innovation that\nwill be warmly approved hy the majority of Canadians and by none probably more than by the boys themselves.\nThe cadet movement is well worth\nfostering. Australia has shown the importance to which it may attain in the\nscheme of national defence, and no\ndoubt Col. Hughes is impressed with\nIts possibilities as a recruiting ground\nfor tbe militia and as a source of national security. With the majority of\nthe school boys of the country trained\nto bear amis and instructed in the\nrudiments of drill Canada would soon\nhave little to fear from a foreign foe.\nThe knowledge thus gained would\nnever be forgotten, and In the course\nof a generation the adult male population of Canada would form the material of a defensive force that could\nbe depended upon to give a good account of itself in case of emergency.\nApart from its value to a scheme of\nnational defence the cadet movement\nwell deserves encouragement. It offers\nto boys wholesome training, healthful\nexercise and beneficial discipline that\ncannot fall to be of benefit to them;\nnot only during their school days, but\nIn after life. It is play-.-and work com\nbined that is an irresistible attraction\nto a healthy youngster.. It is the best\nof; i antidotes to 'evil tendencies, and\nprovides an outlet for high spirits\nand youthful exuberance that might\notherwise be directed into perverse\nchannels. The cadet movtment Is of\nbenefit to the boys Individually and to\nthe country at large.\nThis Date in History.\nThe British museum was opened In -.-,\non this date.

E.\nWatts of Wattsburg.\n\"That this association tenders its\nthanks for and expresses its high appreciation of the many efforts made with\nthe view of obtaining justice and protection for the lumber Industry by the\nvarious boards of trade ln the province\nduring several years past, and that we\nespecially wish to convey our thanks\nto the president of the associated\nboards of trade and the citizens of\nNelson for their moral support and the\nmany courtesies extended to thiB association, which have been a source of\ngratification felt by every individual\nmember but so far left without official\nrecognition.\"\n\"That, whereas at the last annual\nmeeting resolutions were unanimously\npassed condemning reciprocity as being injurious to the fruit and lumber\nindustries, that we are aware of the\nfact that afterwards a few Individual\nmembers who voted for the resolutions\npublicly declared in favor of the opposite, but that no official of this association was ever authorized to\nspeak in favor of reciprocity; that we\nwere and are in favor of protection\nnot only of the lumber industry but all\nothers in Canada and consider that the\nfruit industry should be encouraged\nby every possible means, and placed\nat least on an equal basis of exchange\nwith American fruit.\n\"That the encouragement and fostering of the mining industry Ib of\nparamount importance to this province.\"\n\"It Is therefore resolved that the\nexecutive board of this association is\nhereby empowered and directed to\nwork in unison with the boardB of\ntrade and the representatives of other\nindustries for the purpose of maintaining a vigorous and united campaign\nto educate the public of Canada, and\nwin their support in aid of Justice, being aware of the fact that no wrongs\ncan he righted nor much impression\nmade on the authorities without the\nsupport of public opinion.\"\n\"That this association wishes to call\nthe attention of the chief officers of\nvarious railway companies purchasing\nties, timbers and other articles of\nwood in the United States, for use on\nCanadian lines heavily subsidized at\nthe expense of the Canadian people,\nthat we consider such a policy is not\ntrue economy, and is inimical to the\ninterests of the Canadian public from\nwhom the railway companies obtain\ntheir subsidies, and from whom they\nobtain kingdoms of land, timber and\nother concessions, besides huge sums\nof money.\n\"That the railway companies owe\nthe public some consideration in return for favors granted and owe it especially to the only unprotected industry In Canada, now languishing and\nprostrated under the dumping of foreign lumber on their restricted market. ,\n\"That all mills in the interior are\nclosed down and logging operations\npractically suspended, and these op\nerations usually provided the means\nof subsistence to thousands of poor\nhomesteaders from the prairies during tbe winter, large numbers coming\nthis winter looking for the usual work\nhad to walk back hundreds of miles.\nThe many million dollars usually paid\nto the prairie provinces for agricultural products used ln mills and camps\nhave gone to support a foreign country,\nthe far reaching effect is felt by farmers, lumbermen of all kinds and the\nallied trades and merchants.\n\"In the production of lumber labor\nis the chief, item; therefore the work\nmen of Canada are hit the hardest by\nthe dumping of the foreign product.\nNext to labor the heaviest tax on lumber Ib levied by the railway companies\nfor freight, users of the foreign product pay for the long haul to American\nand the -short haul to Canadian rail\nways.\n\"From a national standpoint those\nwho assist in fostering a foreign Industry ln preference to the Canadian\nW. G. THOMSON\nPhone 34       Bookseller and Stationer       Nelson, B. C.\nare following principles of false economy, which cannot show compensating advantages for the Canadian cash\npaid to foreigners.\n\"Tbat in times of acute depression\nln the lumber trade the effects of this\ndumping of foreign product is most\nkeenly felt, and in the opinion of this\nassociation the subject is worthy of\nthe consideration of railway companies who are supporting foreign industries to the detriment of the people of Canada, and also to the direct\ninjury of one of the most profitable\ncustomers the railway companies have,\nthe lumber trade.\"\n\"That a copy of these resolutions be\nsent to each British Columbia member of parliament at Ottawa, to the\npresident of each railway company, to\neach cabinet minister and to the presidents of the hoards of trade.\"     \t\nJOHN BOWMAN\nDIES SUDDENLY\nOld-Timer In  Rossland and This District Passes at Bonnington Falls-\nFuneral This Afternoon,\nJohn Bowman, for several years at\nthe Centre Star mine at Rossland and\nfor the past five or six years with the\nWest Kootenay Power & Light Co. at\nBonnington Falls, as electrical engineer, died suddenly from heart failure\nat 9 o'clock on Saturday night.

It is\nbelieved In Winnipeg that he has been\nwarned repeatedly by friends in TexaB\nnot to go back south for fear of being\nshot as his father has been. J. M. Logan, Boyce's friend,' left for Regina today on his way back to Texas and expected to see his friend Boyce in the\nSaskatchewan capital. Boyce on his\narrival here will probably be asked\nagain -to produce the jewels of Mrs.\nSneed.\nSneed Was Peaceable Man\nMr. Phillips, K.C., who acted for\nSneed In Winnipeg at the prosecution for tiie deportation of the runaway -wife, when asked for his opinion of the shooting of Boyce, senior by\nSneed declared that, he could not believe the Bhooting was done in cold\nblood.\nSneed\" he said, \"was a peaceable\nman and I do not think he would begin\nsuch shooting without cause. While\nhere I never saw evidence of any\ngrudge against anyone by A. G. Boyce,\nJr. I do not think he looked like a\nman who, whatever his grudge, would\nresort to the use of a gun. He impressed me as a man who was working from the highest and 'best impulse.\nIt is a most unfortunate occurrence\nfrom whatever point it is viewed.\"\nYoung Boyce Cannot Believe it\n\"I cannot believe it Is true,\" said A.\nG. Boyce, Jr., son of Col. Boyce who\nwas shot Saturday night in Port\nWorth. The young man had just re-\nturned from Regina, having been to the\nSaskatchewan capital for the pasl\nweek. \"I feel it my duty to get bacH\nhome as Boon as I can,\" he said, \"and\nyet they say I should stay here for a\nlittle while longer, till the whole thing\nblows over. I do not know but they\nare right. You cannot imagine tha\nsort o\u00a3 a man this Sneed is. Why\nthis last act of his is on a par with the\nway he has been treating his pool\nwife all along.
