It is well that there\nshould be in the capital of the province a department, one of whose duties is the collection and reverential\ncare of material relating to those who\npioneered in our great province and\nlaid the foundations for our present\nprosperity. In your district there' may\nsome pioneers or their descendants\nwho have in their possession original\nletters, diaries, account books, journals, note books, photographs or other\nmaterial which ought properly to find\na resting place in the provincial archives. If so, I beg to make an appeal\nto them to deposia the same with the\ndepartment, which would be proud to\nreceive them and to take every possible care of them for all time. All too\noften the original manuscripts or papers of our pioneers disappear. Sometimes they are unthinkingly destroyed. In other cases, they are simply\nburled away and forgotten, and there\nis ln any case always a danger of loss\nby fire, whereas at Victoria the documents are kept in an absolutely fireproof building. No matter trivial or\nunimportant certain papers may seem\nto their owner, they may have a distinct value in after years. The undersigned will welcome correspondence\nfrom any persons in your district having any class of the above-mentioned\nmaterial ln then* possession, with a\nview to the same being acquired by\npurchase or gift   for  the   provincial\narchive.\nJOHN HOSIE,\nProvincial Archivist, Parllabent Buildings, Victoria, B. O.\nPROMINENT NAMES IN\nBRITISH COLUMBIA\nINCOME TAX BLACKLIST\nVICTORIA, May 8.\u2014British Columbia's first blacklist of income tax defaulters has gone to press at the\nKing's printer's department here, and\nunless the printing equipment is unable to put it Into type on time, will\nbe published tn the B. C. Gagette on\nFriday. It the printing bureau can not\nhandle the entire list today and tomorrow, the list will be Issued next\nweek. Meanwhile officials of the fln-\nane department declined to comment\non the matter, but lt was learned that\nthe list contains names extremely\nprominent ln the professlonnl and\nbusiness life of the province. Former\ngovernments have threatened to take\nthis course but never Implemented\ntheir threats, It was explained that\nMr. Shelly ls obliged under the law to\npublish the blacklist from time to\ntime. Already his announcement that\nhe would carry out the law ln this regard has produced desirable results.\nMany delinquents have paid up their\ntaxes, and more are expected to do so\nwhen their names appear in print.\nFIRE SITUATION\nALREADY SERIOUS\nVICTORIA.\u2014Up to the week ending\nApril 26, a total of 49 fires had been\nreported in various sections of the\npdovince, compared to one - last year\nand ten in 1927, according to a report\nlsesud by the department of lands.\nThirty-five fires have occurred in\nthe southern interior; ten fires in\nPrince Rupert area, while blazes have\nbeen noted in Cariboo, Kamloops,\nPrince Oeorge and Vancouver territories.\nPredictions of Superintendent Deni-\nson of the Dominion meteorological\nobservatory here indicate a serious\ncondition during the summer. He\npoints to the abnormally low water\nsupply on the mainland, the lack of\nsnow on the mountains and the comparatively small rainfull.\nEven the optimist forgets to smile\nwhen the tax collector comes around\nSUN'S WEEKLY TRAVELOUGE\nEUROPE'S \"temporary Ice Age\"\u2014\nthe most severe winter that has\nbeen known for many decades\u2014\ngave the role of destroyer to the\nstream that ls normally the Beautiful Blue Danube. Tho stream was\nfrozen so solidly that ice dams Were\nformed, imprisoning million'! of cub!.;\nfeet of water. When milder weather\ncaused a break ln the icn barriers,\nthe resulting flood damaged hudnreds\nof the river boats that had been imprisoned In the ice.\nEconomically the Danube is to the\nland-locked nations of Europe what\nthB Mediterranean is to the countries\nof southern Europe. Once the northern frontier of the. Roman empire;\nlater the path for conquering hordes\nof Huns, Slavs and Magyars; now the\noommercial Main street of Central Eu\nrope, the Danube may claim to be the\nmost important river of Europe,\nthough It is exceeded by the Volga it\nlength.\nHuman' activity attains extremes\nalong 'the Danube's teourse even\nmore marked than the contrasts\nalong bizarre Broadway, New Rork.\nIts waters see the revels and destitution of Vienna and flow by Hat rocks\non which Hungaritjn women pound\ntheir clothes with wooden mallets\nand bear them away In tubs on their\nheads. They pass mills like those ofi\nMinneapolis, bear vessels like those\non the Hudson, and turn the wheels\nof boat-borne water wheels to which\npeasants bring grain in primitive\ncarts with even the wheels kept in\nplace.by wooden pins.\nThe river halves Budapest and\ncourses by busy Belgrade, where it'\nreceives the Waters of the Save. It\ncarries barges on which families live,\nas they do on canst boats. Grim castles, great estates, and tiny cottages\nstand along Its banks.\nScenically the Danube possesses va\nriety almost as infinite. Rising in the\nBlcick forest, some of Its waters seop\nthrough underground fissures to a\nstream of the Rhine basin. Sometimes\nlt is pressed between high hills,\nsmaller craft appear on its waters in\nBavaria. In Austria it splits into\nmany i|ms and forms a whirlpool. In\nHungary plains it sprawls wide, receiving many important branches,\nremnants of a prehistoric inland sea.\nIt resumes a wild, torrential aspect\neigain when it pierces the Kazan defile and the iron gates. It receives\nnearrly as many tributaries as there\nare days in the year, and drains an\nareci almost equivalent to that of\nEgypt.\nAlong tihe steep right bank of the\nKazan defile can be traced a road\nbuilt by Trajan early In the second\ncentury. Not until recently has the\nconstruction of a modern road made\n(he defile passable upon either bank.\nRecognition of the international im\nportance ot the Danube was attested\nby placing lt under a commission ln\n1856, and further provisions regarding it are contained in subsequent\ntreaties, Including that of Versailles\nln 1919.\nThe Scenic Glories\nThe scenic glories of the Danube\nare chiefly to be seen along the upper reaches of the river; but the\nbroad highway of the lower reaches\nis economically of more Interest, because of the traffic lt carries.\nBelow Glurgevo, Rumania, and Rut-\nschuk, Bulgaria, the Danube widens\nto about three miles from bank to\nbank. Glurgevo, a point of great\nstrategic importance, is accessible by\nriver steamers at high water and has\nan auxiliary port about two mileB further down stream.\nThe lower Danube has a very slight\nfall, only 120 feet in the Ipst 600 milei\nof its length, but because of the great\nvolume of water, increased ffi it goes\non by the Alt, the Argesch, the Jalo-\nmitza, the Sereth, and the Pruth, as\nwell as smaller streams, It flows with\ngreat force. The Bulgarian banks are\nhigh; the Rumanian shore is low and\nflat and often overflows.\nSliitria, the \"fortress of the Da\nnube\" since Roman times, though of\nless military importance than Galatz,\nIs the next place ot Interest below\nRutschuk. A Roman relic, \"Trajan's\nWalJl,\" may be seen from' the river be\nlow Sllhtrla, and forty miles from\nthat city there is a railroad bridge\n\u2022over two and a halt miles long and\nthe only one below Belgrade, connect-\nnlg Bucharest and the Black sea\/ port\nof Constanza. This is one of the most\nremarkable examples of its kind of\nengineering and was built at a cost\nof $7,000,000.\nHirsova and Gurai-Jamolltza are the\nnext places of importance. The river\nat Hirsova broadens like a sea witb\nmany islands. The town with its fortified castle is prettily situated on a\nhilltop above the surrounding Halts.\nImportant River Port\nThe more Important of the river's\nports are next approached. Bralla,\nunlovely and monotonous of aspect,\nis, however, the chief Rumanian port\nof entry, before the war a town of\nover \u20ac0,000 inhabitants and a center\nof the grain and timber trades. Be\ntween Bralla and Galatz are the ruins\nof; |ii ancient bridge said to have been\nbuilt by Darius the Great.\nThe latter city, about ten miles below Bralla, is a very thriving port.\nVessels of 4000 tons can come up tbe\nriver to this point. Between. Gtalatz\nand the confluence with the Pruth\nthe Danube makes its turn to the east\nOn its left bank lies Bessarabia, formerly Russian territory, but annexed\nduring the World war by Rumania.\nAfter swraling in a great angle\naround the barrier of Dobrudja, the\nso-called Blue Danube drops its load\nof mud and sand gathered from eight\nnations of Europe in a large delta at\nthe western end of the Black sea.\nThis delta takes the form of a huge\nequl-laiteral triangle 50 miles long on\neach side.\nOf all the varieties of earth surface\ndeltas rank high as tbe most useless\nto civilization. Mountains are admired for their inspiration, deserts\nhold rare beauty for those wha| seek\nttjT'but-few people* go to'a delta even\nto hunt ducks if they can help it. The\nDanube's delta ls particularly unattractive since the peasants have not\nbeen able to adapt it to agriculture,\nas sugar-cane planters have large\nparts lot the Mississippi delta. Some\ndeltas, such aB those of the Amazon\nand the Yangtze, consist of large\nislands surrounded by considerable\nwater; but the Danube's waters run\nthrough a vast swamp whioh was almost a complete barrier to navigation\nbefore the European commission of\nthe Danube took a hapd\nIn country that ls neither land nor\nwater, the reeds and willows take\ncommand and do not catch malaria.\nDeprived of timber, tbe peasant fishermen put the reeds to ma|ny uses.\nWillows are used for basket making\nand for flsh weirs. A plumed reed is\ncut for fuel and still another kind is\nwoven into mats or used as thatch.\nThose who are Irritated at fishing restrictions in Canada cam appreciate\nwhat a fisherman's paradise they live\nln by comparison. The Rumanian\ngovernment considers fishing a K\u00b0v'\nernment monopoly, and every commercial catch must be brought to a\ngovernment customs house to be auctioned off.\nBy the construction of levees and\npiers, the European commission of\nthe Danube has opened a channel to\nGalatz, the Rumanian naval port, culpable of receiving shipping up to\n4000 tons. The trulllc In and out tho\nriver amounts to more than 5,000,000\ntons annually.\nELEPHANTS MAKE GOOD\nAND   FAITHFUL   SERVANTS\nElephant labor Is both salipiactnry\nand economical, according to members of a Harvard expedition to the\nBelgian Congo. The big fellows make\nwonderful servants, and after doing\na day's work equivalent to thai of el\ntractor he gathers his food free of\ncost in the forest, where it grows\nwild, while the gasoline \"teed\" of\ntractors is expensive in the Congo.\nAfrican elephants long had a reputation for incurable ferocity, apd the\naccomplishment of the Belgians in\nlearning how to domesticate them ls\nnew. Ilhe successful training is due\nto catching the elephants young.\nNumbers of them have been given to\nsettlers for farh work.\nGrand Forks was officially placed\non the'air map of Canada yesterday\nafternoon when his honour Lieutenant-Governor Brace opened the first\nairport ln British Columbia here. The\nopening ceremony took place at about\n3 o'clock on the West end grounds.\nMr. Brace's opening address was extremely brief. He congratulated Grand\nForks on obtaining the first airport\nlicense ln the province, and he emphasized the fact that It was the first\nHe was rather at a loss, he said, how\nto proceed to open it, as this was his\nflrst experience with airports. He was I\nquite famfiliar with opening baby j\nshows, cattle shows, agricultural exhl-\nbitions, blnlng conventions, and so\nforth, but when lt came to airports\nhe claimed his knowledge was nil.\nHowever, his address was much appre- j\nelated by his audience, and most of\nthose who heard it expressed the wish;\nfor a lengthier speech. I\nThe representatives of the crown ar-'\nrived in the city at about 1 o'clock, j\nThey were driven over from Penticton j\nby motor car Car Reeve G. A. B. Mc-\nDonald of Pentlcton. The party con-j\nsisted of his honour Lieutenant-Governor Bruce and his niece, Miss Mac-'\nkenzie, and Hon. W.   A.   MacKenzie, I\nminister of mines, and his secretary,\nMiss Bovieau.\nImmediately on the arrival of the\nparty a luncheon was served at the\nGrand.Forks Hotel. Besides the representatives of the government, about\nfifty local people were present at the\nfestive board. On the conclusion of\nthe repast the party repaired to the\nairport grounds. I\nThe attraction at the airuort was\nthree airplanes from Spokane\u2014two\ntwo-passenger planes and one with a\ncapacity of about a dozen passengers.\nThey were kept busy all day taking\nup passengers for short flights. The\nfare, was $5, and It is said that they\ncleared about a dollar a minute.\nThere was also a parachute Jump\nfrom a. plane. The performer of this\nfeat is said to have received some\neighty odd dollars for the risk to life\nand limb which he took. There was a\nlarge crowd of people present at the:\ngrounds.\nThe celebration attracted a large\ncrowd of people, the country district\nand all the surrounding towns being\nwell represented. |\nLast night, in the Masonic hall, the\ncitizens bad an opportunity to meet\nthe representatives of the crown at a\npublic reception.\nThe lieutenant-governor's party left\nfor their homes this morning in a private car attached to the regular OP.\nR. westbound passenger train.\nThe city was In holiday attire and\nthe celebration was very successful.\nThe only thing lacking was a few Canadian airplanes. The committee\nmade every endeavor to induce some\nto come here, but they could not be secured.\nMartin Luther wfls tried for heresy\nin Germany in 1521 by the imperial\ndiet of Worms.\nEverybody likes epigrams, even\nthosg who call them wise-cracks.\nBRITISH COLUMBIA\nFERTILIZER MAY\nSAVE THE WEST\nVICTORIA.\u2014British Columbia, with\nits vast deposits of phosphate!; which\nwill be made Into fertilizer by the\nConsolidated Mining and Smelting\ncompany will prove the salvation oi\nCanada's \"wheat slsk\" pnalrle grain\nbelt, the Saskatchewan grain commission was told by C. C. Castle of Victoria, former member of tho Canadian gijain commission und one of the\ngreatest living grain authorities,\nMr. Castle declared that tho present dlSHtKlsfuctlou among grain grow\ners all over Canada was largely duo\nto mixing.\nHe turned then to an aspect of\nthis problem of great Interest to Brl*-\niBh Columbia, which will soon be\nturning out fertilizer in huge quantities.\n\"Another dilllculty,\" he said, \" is\nthat much of the land of M;niil\u00bbbo\nSaskatchewan arid Alberta, after l>3-\nIng under cultivation for long periods,\nis wheat sick, due due to lack of fer-\ntllljer.\"\n'Mr. Castle pointed out that the Consolidated Mining alnd Smelting company was planing to make fertilizer\nfrom phosphate deposits, and wasted\nacids, and had tested the product out\non prairie farms last yeatr.\n\"The western provinces can absorb\nmany million tons of fertilizer annually,\" he said. \"The manufacture of\nfertilizer on a large scale will be the\ngreatest salvation the western province has ever known. It will cause an\nIncreased yield; an earlier harvest,\ncloser settlement, and bring reduction ot taxation.\"\nTne commission concluded Its Victoria sittings Friday afternoon, ind\nwill Bit in Vancouver on Monuay.\nVICTORIA, May 8.\u2014Reports that\nthe Consolidated tuning & Smelting\ncompany and the British Columbia\nPower corporation had reached a definite agreement under which the former would built a smelter on Vancouver island and receive power from\nCampbell river were not credited at\nthe parliament buildings today.\nAt the office of the British Columbia Electric railway, subsidiary of the\nBritish Columbia Power corporation,\nit was stated that officials knew of no\nsuch agreement, but that the company\nwould be glad to supply a smelter or\nany other consumef with power,should\nit require a water license on Campbell\nriver.\nJ. J. Warren, president of the Consolidated, left here last night without\nmaking any statement on his smelter\nplans to the government, or to the\npublic. On behalf of the government,\nIt was explained that neither of the\ntwo companies said to be interested in\nthe reported deal had revealed any of\ntheir plans. No agreement between\nthem, if any exists, Is recognized officially, as the water board prepares to\nhear applicants for Campbell river\nwater rights on May 15.\nIt was explained at the mines department that an adequate power supply was not the only factor which the\nConsolidated would have to consider\nIn palnnlng a coast smelter. As emphasized by Mr. Warren himself in his\nonly public statement on the matter,\nthe company would be willing to embark on the scheme it it could be sure\nof securing sufficient ore from mines\nother than its own. The chief problem thus ls to make the necessary arrangements with other mining companies. No intimation that such arrangements are under way has been\nreceived by the mines department.and\nduring his visit Mr. Warren declined\nto talk about the smelter project with\ngovernment officials.\nWhile Hon. F. P. Burden, minister\nof lands, was reported yesterday to\nhave conferred with Mr. Warren on\nthe Consolidated plans ln connection\nwith Campbell river powers,' tbe minister flatly denied this today.\n\"Mr. Warren interviewed me this\nweek about certain irrigation matters\nln which his company is interested,\nbut the possibility of of a smelter on\nthe coast was not discussed at all,\"\nMr. Burden stated. \"The government\nand I know of no such arranbement\nbetween the Consolidated and the\nBritish Columbia Power corporation\nconcerning Campbell river. Certainly\nthe Consolidated has. made no public\nmove to acquife Campbell river power\nor to buy it from any other interest\nwhich may acquire rights there'.' .\nA. T. Coward, vice-president ot ths\nBritish Columbia Electric Railway\ncompany In Victoria, said he knew of\nno definite agreement between his organization and the Consolidated regarding Campbell river power.\n\"It was suggested that if we secured\nrights on Campbell river we might\nsupply power to a coast smelter,\" he\nsaid, \"and of course as we are to the\npower business we would be glad ta\nsell power to all interests wishing to\nescure lt. But I know of nothing\ndefinite in this connection. I do not\nknow, either, whether the Consolidated proposes to build a smelter on the\ncoast or not.\"\nAs stated frequently before, it has\nbeen reported from the beginning that\nthe Consolidated would be the British\nColumbia Power corporation's largest\ncustomer should it receive a water\nlicense on Campbell river. The power\ncompany, in fact, announced, when\napplying for the power, that it had. \"a\nlarge customer\" in view. If any definite arrangement has been reached between the two concerns, however, it\nis still a secret and ls not now considered a factor ln the water board's disposal of Vancouver island's chief remaining water power.\nREACH AGREEMENT\nON TOMATO PRICE;\n$17.50 ACCEPTED\nKELOWNA.\u2014The deadlock which\nhas existed for several weeks between\nthe British Columbia Tomato Growers' association and the Dominion\nCanners (B. C.) Limited was brought\nto an end at a special general meeting\nof the association held here this week.\nA resolution was passed authorizing\nthe directors to accept the offer of the\nDominion Canners of $17.50 per ton\nfor all varieties. The price has been\nconfirmed by wire and accepted by\nboth parlies.\nThe growers had been holding out\nfor lost year's prices of $18.50 for\nEarliana and $20.50 for John Baer.\nAdoplion of the resolution means\nthat the acreage grown this year at\nOliver and Keremeos will be taken\ncare of by the Dominion Canners,\nand that a portion of the acreage In\nthe Kelowna district ls assured of a\nmarket at a fixed price.\nSmoothing the way for a settlement\na further resolution agreed that tho\nBritish Columbia Tomato Growers'\nassociation supply Oliver growers with\nsufficient Earliana plants to meet\ntheir needs at $3.50 per thousand.\nThe Oliver growers had planted considerable of the John Baer variety In\ntheir frames and asked the higher\nprice from the cannery for this variety.

Shea, Massachusetts state game walrden, calls him, ls a wire-hatred griffon and n native of France. Cap is more than thirteen\nyears old. He escorts members of his family to store or\nchurch or theater\u2014but does nut enter. And he returns\nrafetrwardrs to see them home. All this Cap hal3 learned,\nbut ihe has never learned to forget the war. The horror\nof barbed wire and gas masks is still upon him. Although\nbarbed wire is used at his home only to confine dairy\ncattle, Clip refuses to go near a wire fence. He still associates them with sudden death.\nSARDINES are small flsh but they mean big money, in\nthe total, in Canada's Atlantic coast fishery production, and through the season in New Brunswick they\nkeep busy the largest s^-dine qannery in the British empire. This cannery is at Black's Harbor on the Charlotte\ncounty coast of New Brunswick, the province where by\nfar the greater part of the Canadian sardine fishery is\ncarried on. A small catch of sardines is also taken iu\nQuebec and some of the flsh are lalso caught in Nova\nScotia waters. The market value of the Canadian production is over a million dollars a year. Statistics, com\npiled by the fisheries bralnati of the department of marine\nand fisheries shew that tbe total catch lot sardines In\n1928 wps 53,798,200 pounds\u2014a big increase over 1927,\n32,936,000 pounds were landed. The 19>28 catch had a\nltlnded value to the fishermen of $340,325 as compared\nwith $202,056 in the previous year.\nTUEIUO are many rangers ln the forest service. Of the\nhordes of job-seekers who annually apply for positions as fores:t rangers, the majority are doomed to disappointment, nays Forest Service. Hundreds of tbe letters which pour into the matin office are undoubtedly inspired by mistaken notions of tbe character of the rapger\njob. It Is believed by many to be an opportunity for an\nouting in tbe woods with pay, or a chance to duplicate\nthe career ol a two-gun man of the greu open spaces as\ndepicted ln western dims. The ranger's job requires hard\nwork and high qualifications. He must be able to endure\nthe physical hardships of fire fighting and other heavy\noutdoor work, and he must have the technical knowledge\nnecessary to carry out the plans for administration and\ndevelopment of the forest resources ln bis district,\nTHE art of the osier, which is basket making, is one of\nthe oldest of handicrafts and was once a| very important ludutry of England, but the statement is made that\nIt will soin be exterminated unless %ome encouragement\nis given to tbe workers, German and Japanese baskets\nare displacing the product 'of the other countries where\nthe Srt nourished flrst. A great deal of labor is required\nto cultivate the willows .and prepare them for wicker\nwork. The williows are cut with a short curved knife in\nthe early months of the year. They are then soaked in\nrunning water for six months. This known as pitting the\nwillows, and it Is necessary bo take off tbe bark to produce white willows. T|he finished willows are then dried\nand striUghtcend, when they are ready for the hamper\nmakers arm cane workers at the factories.\nTHERE was a time when not a table existed in the\nwhole world.

They are aibout the first thing that a\nprospective tenant sees as be approaches a building.\nAnd certainly they do the building no good from a rental\nI standpoint. Yet the finding of a desirable rind profitable\ntenant sometimes requires a considerable \u25a0 period of time.\nOne expedient to eliminate these unsightly, empty win\n(lows is their use as display space for retail merchants\nor manufacturers. There seems to be an incre\u00a3|3ing interest In this practice. Where merchants are crowded\nfor display space they can generally be shown the possibilities of using window space without renting an additional store. And, in most cases, even ;i| small income\nfrom vacant stores, witih the. added value of improved appearance, is well worth tbe building owner's consideration.\nIN Virginia, where tobacco was found growing before\n1607, the Indians called the plant \"apooke.\" The term\n\"tobacco\" appeals not to have been a common'y used\nname for tlie plant, and it comes to us from a peculiar\ninstrument used for inhaling smoke by the inhabitants\nof Hlspanlola (Santo Domingo), Ibis instrument consisted of a small hollow wooden tube shaped like u Y,\nthe two points of Which being inserted ln the nose of the\nsmoker, the other end was held into the smoke of burning tobacco, and thus the fumes inhaled, This apparatus\nthe natives called \"tabaco.\"\nPOEMS FROMTHEFAREAST\nARABIA\nTO A FEMALE CUP-BEARER\nGome Leila, All the goblet up,    .\nRanch round tbe rosy wine,\nThink not that we will take the cup\nFrom any hand but thine.\nA draught like this 'twere vain to seek,\nNo grape can suoh supply;\nIt steals its tint from Lellai's cheek,\nIts brightness from her eye.\n\u2014Abd AlBalam Ben Ragban,\ncXNCIENT HISTORY\nTWENTY YEARS AGO IN GRAND PORKS\nH.

The severity of\nthe trouble, however, Is often not\nrealized, as the symptoms, manifested\non the top of the tree are rarely apparent until teh tree is beyind help.\nMore care should be taken to detect\nthe diseci3<e in its Initial attack, so\nthat relief measures might be more\npractical and that the loss of many\nvaluable trees be avoided.\nIn controlling disease Its timely detection Ib of utmost   importance.   A\n,;     Appropriately Named\n\"iilmberger Cheese\" bears the name\nof   the   town   in which lt was first\nmade\u2014Llmburg, Belgium.\nMan, equally,   has   intuition.

The\nmillions of men and women who\nuse it in increasing quantities every\nyear prove that it does relieve such\npain. The medical profession pronounces it without effect on the\nheart, so use it as often as it can\nspareyou any pain. Every druggist\nalways has genuine Aspirin tablets\nfor the prompt relief of a headache,\ncolds, neuralgia, lumbago, etc. Familiarize yourself with the proven\ndirections in every package.\nsystematic inspection of every tree\nin the orchard must be undertaken,\npreferably in the spring, if crown rot\nis to be detected in the first year of\nits attack. To accomplish this lt is\nnot necessary to remove all the earth\nfrom the roots and crown, but enough\nmust be cleared away to carefully Inspect tit least eight inches below the\nground level. This may be done with\na crook-neck har or some blunt nar-\nrow-bladed tool, but care must be\ntaken not to Injure the bark on the\ncrown or roots. The closest inspec-\nspection will be necessary, as a slight\ndepression or discoloration of the\nbark mtly be the indication of the rot,\nand a knife may be required to dlstin\nhealthy tissue.\nOn the intelligent application of relief measures for crown rot depends\nheir success. In he first place, It\nreas showing signs of rot should be\ncut away and cleaned into the healthy\nbark, then the wound should be disinfected and painted wi h wax, whi e\nlead, or some other good wound\ndressing. If the wound does not extend mare th n half way round the\ncrown, bridge gr fting or inarching\nwi b seedlings may be prac nsed. If,\nhowever, the rot has advanced more\nthan half way, these methods will be\nof doubtful value, although the opening up of the ear h round he tree\nand exposing it to the' sun during the\ncheck for a time. Judicious pruning\nof the top should be practised in all\ncases in order o maintain a balance\nln the tree to prevent excessive bearing.\nFurther pr ctical details ot bridge\ngrafting, inarching, and other necessary information may be ob alned on\napplication to the Dominion laboratory of pliant pathology, Summerland,\nor the loc 1 provincial horticultural\nrepresen ative.\u2014J.

Macoun, Dominion Horticurlst,\n'@e Apiary\nCO-RELATION   BETWEEN   SPRING\nMANAGEMENT  AND   CROP\nPRODUCTION\nThe amount of surplus honey that\na colony of bees can store is largely\nJependent upon the number of bees\nthere is in the colony over and above\ni.hose required to carry on the orutine\nwork at the commencement of the\nmain honey flow. Moreover, these surplus bees must be at least two weeks\nold, which means that they must be\nreared during the six or eight weeks\nprior to the flow.\nThe production of a large force of\nHeld bees of the right age and at the\nright time requires very skillful management from the time the bees are\nremoved from their winter quarters\nuntil the honey flow commences. As\nthe queen is the mother of every other\nbee in the colony, and because the\nbees that are to gather the harvest\nmust be reared during the spring and\nsarly summer, it follows that every\nunprolific queen should be replaced as\nearly in the spring as possible. Furthermore, because a queen . cannot\nreach her maximum egg production\nnor the maximum amount of brood be\nreared to maturity without an abundant and continuous uspply of food,\nand because the early sources of nee\ntar and pollen are usually Insufficient\nfor this purpose, it becomes necessary\nfor the beekeeper to provide a plentiful supply for the bees' needs during\nthe spring and early summer. Agal.n\nthe queen requires sufficient space for\nthe number of eggs she Is capable of\nproducing adn she also requires a\n,;rong force of bees to care for the\nincoming generation.
