REVELSTOKE\nWEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, IVM\nINVEST UNDER\nBRITISH FLAG\nCanada Will Benefit by Big\nWar Empire Will not Forget Dominions\nAmong the hundreds of idle stockbrokers who meet daily tn Thrograor-\nton streets to discuss the chances of\nthe \"House\" re-opeiuug there is but\none opinion regarding Investments.\nThe public baa been attracted by the\nglamor of high yields iu Continental\n;unl South American concerns but\nthis war bus taught investors the\nlesson that the safest investment iB\nono made under the Uritish Hug.\nThis will be recognized more than\never at the close of the war when\nthere will l\"' an enormous umouut of\ncapital seeking an outlet and when\nthe Investor will have no lack of\nchoice. This is one bright promise of\nthe future so tar us Canada is concerned. Said a leading financier:\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2'Sentiment! Empire sentiment has\nin the past been largely responsible\nfor the investment ot lurge blocks ot\nBritish capital in your Dominion;\nand when the war is over you can\nrely on such an increase in this leel-\n>ing that will ensure rapid development of the resources of Canada. No\ncountry in the world hus had such a\nsplendid write-up as Canada has bad\nduring the lust month. The existing\nsympathy of ull classes in the Motherland towards the Dominion has\nbeen strengthened to an cuthusiusm\nthat will mean much when peace\ncomes again. Just us we may expect\na vigorous national feeling against\nHupporting any German enterprise by\nj.urchusing goods made in Germany,\nso we can look forward with certainty to the creation of a scbool\nof investors the motto of which will\nbe 'Investment under the British\nflag.' \"\nOpinion Generally Held\nIn varying forms that opinion\nseems to be generally held. Already\nthose who bave placed their money\nju Canada are congratulating themselves on the result, it is rccogci^'l\nthat the high yields to be l>j.J in the\nDominion have far more justification\nthan tbe same return on capital\nplaced elsewhere This feeling will\nundoubtedly bring about still lurther\ninvestment in the Dominion later on,\nIor it is only a matter of time, and\nn short time nt that, before the ordinary course of business will be resumed in most brunches ot industry\nand this means the accumulation of\nmore capital. '\nAttention is already being given to\nthe opportunities presented to investors by the conditions which will\nprevail for some time to come in thc\nlood markets of the world. Thc sup--\nply will be diminished in Europe und\nshould be increased in Canada. Farm\nlands will unquestionably increase in\nvalue, so that mortgages on such\nproperty are better secured than they\nhave been hitherto. It is in thiB\ndirection that capital may be expected to go to Canada and this will\ntelp in two ways.\nMore Laud I'nder Cultivation.\nMore land will be brought under\n( ultivation, so as to increase the\nsupply not only of wheat but of cattle and horses; and there will be\ns-reater inducements for settlers\nwhose incoming will add to the demand for building materials, while\nthe railways will benefit by the additional traffic. Leader.-! of thought\nin this country, investors whose in\nvestments are not made entirely on\nthe per cent basiB will regard the investment of their funds In Canada as\nan obligation to show their appreciation of the Dominion's outstanding\ngenerosity in the present time ol\nstress. Thousands of the young men\nwho have left office and desk for\nactive service will dislike the prospect\nof returning to a sedentary life and\nwill seek another career in the overseas Dominions. Canada will attract\nthem in large numbers and they will\nlie a good type of settlers. The few\nfar sighted peoplo who control recognize that this type will be finding\nj the way to Canada and arc making\n! plans to meet the new condition.\nMany of these men will have capital\nenough for a start and will Beek thc\n'districts already opened up, Owners\nof land in these areas may expect a\nconsiderable demand, The roaming\ni spirit of tbe Englishman is by no\nmeans dead. This war will revive It;\nund the splendid response of Canada\nto the Empire's need will intensify\nthe desire to know more of the lands\nv.herc this patriotic spirit has developed to such magnificent purpose.\nof trousers for a mere button.

But it is\nknown that a million and a halt was\nspent in improving the harbor as an\nanchorage for torpedo craft. Millions\nhave been spent on fortifications and\nthe construction of powder magazines, while refuges have been built\nfor the inhabitants as a protection\nagainst the island being shelled by\nun enemy.\nTwo hundred feet from the water\nthere stands a series of big gun batteries and armed turrets, an attempt\nhaving been made to turn the island\ninto a German Gibraltar.\nFor purposes of protection, a clifl\nof granite was built, bo that the island now to n large extent possesses\ncliffs which are purely artificial. In\naddition, hundreds of tons of cement\nwere used to strengthen the face of\nthe natural rock. Most of the people\ndepend for their livelihood upon the\nlobster and other fisheries, together\nwith their harvest (rom the summer\nvisitors. They live to long years, and\nhave as their native tongue the North\nFrisian dialect.\nIn 1807 Great Britain obtained the\nisland from the Danes. When she took\npossession of the place \"it was tbe\n\"jumping eround\" of a horde of\nsmugglers, there being practically no\nroom left on the island which was\nfree from kees and human beings. In\n1?!>0 we gave it over to the Germans\nas their consideration for our taking\nZanzibar and Pemba.\nAt the time of the I arzain there\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2-\"at dissatisfaction shown in\neach country.

Frosyth Smith, British Columbia's Market commissioner, has sent\nthe following letter to over a hundred editors of newspapers published\nin the Prairie Provinces,\n\"The luscious treo-rlpcned British\nColumbia preserving peaches and\nplums are just beginning to appear\nupon thc market, and in accordance\nwith custom, the prairie housewife is\nabout to commence her seasonal\nfruit preserving activities.\n\"The war scare, however, has had\nsuch an effect upon the price of\nj sugar, that many people ure wondering whether they may not have to\ncurtail the quantities of fruit thut\nthey will put up.\n\"It Is in the endeavor to re-assure\nsuch a large class of your readers\nthat I write to call attention to two\nthings:\n\"(1) While so muny essential articles of food have risen in price on\naccount of the war, fruit is and will\nbe as cheap as ever. There will be\ndistinct economy, theretore, in using\nit to replace us far as possible other\nmore expensive foods.\n\"(2) Excellent results can be secured with fruit put up without the\nuse of sugar. Although not a general\npractice, this haB been done by many\npeople for years, and authorities on\npreserving all agree that fruit so\npreserved retains its distinctive flavor\nvery much better, und is altogether\nsuperior to that put up in the ordinary wny. The only point is that when\npreserving without Bugar, it is necessary to be particularly careful to see\nthat the jars are sealed air-tight,\nand to insure this, the parafin wax\ntop should bc UBed in eveiy case. Of\ncourse, sugar will eventually have to\nl.e used in prepuring the fruit for\nthe table, but, In this connection I\nmay point out,(l) that very much less\nsugar is used in this wuy, when sweetening to taste, und (2) thut there Is\nevery likelihood that long before any\ngreat proportion of this season's preserves is used, sugar prices will be\nnormal again.\n\"To put up fruit without sugar,\nsimply prepare the peaches or plums\nin the ordinary way, place them in\njars, fill with cold water, then place\nthe jars in a boiler filled with cold\nwater, and heat to the boiling point.\nA board should bc placed in the bottom of the boiler to keep the jars\nfrom the direct heat of the stove.\nFruit thus prepared will be found excellent for pies, delicious for eating\nwith cream and generally superior to\nthe sugar syrup preserves. If the jars\nare nroporly air-tight, they will also\nkeep quite us long.\"\nCRESTON MAN\" HAS\nINVENTED APPLE GRADER\nfi .-v Timmens of Creston is set-\ntine up an apple grader which he has\nbad I. :ilt 'rom a model of his own\n*.nv.\u00E2\u0080\u0094It is now almost\ncertain that there will be no Rugby\nlootball this Winter. Following the\nlead of Blackheuth, practically all\nI the leading clubs, withe tho exception\not those in Wules huve abandoned\ntheir programmes. Thc Rugby Union,\nin issuing a munifesto calling on\nplayers to join the army, have cancelled thc international fixtures.\nThere has been a mugnincent response\non thc part of Rugby players to\ntheir country's call. Nine-tenths ot\nthe men who played for England last\nyear are now fighting uuder S'ir John\nFrench In France\u00E2\u0080\u0094and I just at this\nmoment helping to curl up the Germans oust of Puris--or serving in the\nnerve racking North Sea vigil with\nthe gallant Admiral whom the navy\nknows as \"Hell-lire Jackj' Jellicoe.\nSo many rugby players have enlisted\nthat few clubs, even if they w'ished\nto, could not place a team in the\ntield. The case of Hcadinglcy, the\nfamous Yorkshire club, is quite typical. Out of a playing membership\not about forty, no fewer than twenty-live have already gone to the\ntront, or are training at home impatient to do so. This general shutting down of rugby was comparatively easy, und the prosperous union can\nafford to sacrifice the $\u00E2\u0080\u00A2_>.*>,000 that\nmight have come to them aB the result of the international matches.\nA general dislocation of the association gume, which is now a huge\ncommercial enterprise, would have\nbeen serious. As it is, thc financial\nIosb can be only minimized by continuing the game. Matches that have\nalready been decided in the proles-\nBional leagues have not drawn half\nthe usual gutes. How true this is appears from thc meeting between Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea, the\nmost interesting league match played\nduring tbe season in London, when\nonly IS.0'10 people were present. In\nthe ordinary way thcre would have\nbeen at least 50,000. Professional\nfootball cannot be stopped without\ncausing a great deal ot hardship, because, while players have contracts\nthat are binding in common law, the\ngame is a means ot livelihood tor\nmany hesideB those actively engaged\nin it.\nFor this reason, perhaps, it is ungenerous to question thc personal\npatriotism or the sportsmanship of\nthose identified with it.\nBesides all this, the matches have\nproved a most valuable aid to tbe\ngeneral scheme of recruiting. Whenever possible speakers have addressed\nthe spectators at the finish of the\nplay, and many fine recruits have\nthus been obtained. Clubs and players, too, nre playing their part as\nbeat they can. Substantial donations\ntave been made by the more wealthy\norganizations to the National Relief\nFund, und in most cases the players\nare contributing 5' per cent of their\nwages.\nWar Makes Market\nfar B.

Among the many\nspeculations which this war will confirm or disprove is the eflcct upon\nthe military power of the Fatherland\nof the economic revolution into an\nindustrial country. It was tbe rural\nrecruit that marched on Paris and\ncrushed the power of Napoleon III.\nAlmost two-thirds of the population\nol Germany live today in the towns\nand industrial centres. In the year\n1870 agriculture employed 17 per\ncent of the population. In 191*2 the\nproportion had fullen to 28.6 per\ncent. The Immediate results ol the\nindustrialization of Germany are seen\nin the large decrease ol births in the\ntowns and in the inferior stamina of\nthe men as tested by their fitness for\nmilitary service. OI the town conscripts lit for service in the army in\n1906 a military commission discovered that 71.97 of their parents came\nfrom the country and only 1,68 per\ncent Irom the towns. Between the\njearB 1S76-I910 the birth rate had\nfallen :)0 per cent in towns and 16\nper cent in the country districts.\nGermany, in common with other industrial communities, has paid a\nhigh price for her lopsided economic\ndevelopment.\nThe migration from rural to urban\ncentres tends to react more injuriously on the physical qualities of\nthe German people than on those of\nneighboring European nations. Germany has forty-eight towns with\nmore than 100.0UU inhabitants, compared with only fifteen In France,\nthirteen in Italy, and nine in Austro-\nHungary. Does this weakening ol\nagriculture seriously aflect the military Btrength of Germany as compared with her powerful antagonists?\nof\na nation in the last resort lies not\nin its wealth, but in the fighting\nqualities of its people. A numerous\nand virile population is the backbone of national defence. To her\nclansmen and yeomanry and to her\nfishermen and sailors from seaport\ntowns Britaiu owed her victories in\nthe past. The lighting instinct of the\nbreed still survives, but the decline\niu agriculture and the passing ol the\nold-time sailor make it Increasingly\ndifficult to maintain thc efficiency of\nthe British services. Germany, however, labors under greater disadvantages. One of the fatal flaws in Germany's industrial rise has been the\ninordinute haste with which her\nstatesmen set about the economic revolution. Ambitious ol a place in\nthe councils ol thc greut powers, German statesmen deliberately set about\nthe amassing of wealth through the\ncreation ol 'industries us the quickest\nway to the building up ot a navy\nund to securing a dominant place In\nworld politics. They committed the\nblunder ol underestimating the im- :\ntortancc of agriculture to a country I\nwithout colonies and as yet without I\na fleet powerful enough to protect i\nher overseas commerce. An attempt\nhas since been mndc to readjust thc ;\nbalance between ugriculture und In- I\ndustry by protective tarlfls, but thiB,\nin its turn, has led to much misery ;\nund discontent in tbc towns. Gcr- i\nmany, in thc midst ol war, finds that\nthe abnormal rise ot her industries\nend thc building ot a fleet which Is {\nunable to maintain her trado routes, I\ndo not compensate her tor the des-\nst ruction ot her agriculture.\nThanks to her dominions and colonies, Britain can still aflord to roly\nUpon overssas countries for hsr food\nsupply owing to her naval supremucy\nThe decline in her agriculture, therefore, docs not cripple her at this\ncrisis.

While only a few of the local\nboys had had any previous military\nexperience, all were agreed that in\nthe matter ol officers at least, the\nSixth Field company was easily the\npick of the military organizations on\nthe coast. This can be readily under-\nEtood when it is known that for\nevery man enlisted in the present\ncompany, eight were turned down by\neither the medical man or the commanding officer, often for reasons \u00E2\u0080\u00A2\nwhich in other divisions of the army\nwould be considered trivial, while\nafter a wurning, if any offence was\nrepeuted the only punishment meted\nout was an instantaneous discharge.\nThe men speak very highly ol the\ntreatment given them by Capt. Ward\nand his fellow officers whom they !\ndescribe as the best bunch of fellows ,\nthey ever met, and a visitor just returned from the coast says the feeling is reci procated to an equul extent by the officers when speaking of\nthe Revelstoke and Kamloops recruits. The majority have returned\nto the positions held by them previous to leaving for the coast, but\nall are looking forwurd with considerable pleasure to the time when\nrhey will he asked to join their company enroute to Europe. In the\nmeantime they expect to perfect\ntheir drill in the local drill hall,\nwhile it is probable that an Instructor from the Royal Engineers now\nstationed at Victortn, will be sent\nhere to give them the remaining lectures, and demonstrations in the engineering course.\nn.tl.\" -.1 4 UHOtAwoca, *V .T,\nKING ALBERT OF BELGIUM\nTeacher\u00E2\u0080\u0094Who knows what triplets\n!are?\nBright Pupil\u00E2\u0080\u0094I know, miss; it's\netwinB and one left over.\n\"Why did Maud choOBe a Bingle\nlife?\"\n\"She wns afraid of getting a husband who would lead a double one.\"\nBalfour, Guthrie & Co., agents for\nthe Harrison Direct Line, state that\nthe vessels of the Harrison fleet will\nbe in n position to make the run out\nfrom Liverpool to this coast, via tho\nPanama Canal, in about tWirty days.\n11 'mama service of the company\nwill be inaugurated by the stenm-\nsbip Discoverer, which ie due to saii\nfrom Liverpool this month.\nC.
