ALICE ARM AND ANYOX HERALD, Alice Arm, Saturday, August 4, 1923 Home Town Commandments Thou shalt honour thy home town with a neighborhood house. Thou shalt meet thy neighbors there on equal footing. Thou shalt work with them there for the common welfare. Thou shalt play with them there with all thy heart and- strength and mind. Thou shalt know thy fellows better and thy friendships shall multply. Investigate Before Investing Your well-earned savings are worth keeping and guarded against a poor investment. Beware of the rapid-fire stock salesman, and his easy and oily promise of making you rich quick. Don't put your savings into any stock or loan proposition without having it investigated. If . you are asked to buy stock in a proposition you know nothing about, we suggest that you turn the name of the company and salesman over to your banker, and he,will look into it foryou. - Investigate, before you sign for an investment. Trade at Home The dollar that goes out of town never comes back, and the money spent at home is used to develop the town and help make improvements. If home trading were discontinued entirely there would be no towns in the country, and even the occasional dollar taken outside hampers the growth of the community.

Smelter Win from Elks in Baseball Game On Friday, July 27th, the Smelter and Elks came together in a well contested game of/baseball. The Smelter playing in their early season form romped home with a 5-0 victory. The Elks were badly handicapped by the1 absence of several of their players, and were not able to put up as stubborn a fight owing to the change in the outfield. In the third inning Sinclair reached first on an error,. and was forced out at. second, Matheson being safe at first; a two base hit by Fortin; a hit by Brown and a sacrifice by J. Mer Keown-scored three rims. Again in fifth, the Smelter scored another run, Fortin going to first on an error, and was advanced round the bags by a sacrifice and a hit. The final run was scored in the seventh, when Brown got to first on a hit and came home when the next man up hit for one hit safely. The Elks were unable to register a run although iu the/fourth two hits were made in, succession and it looked, as though they were due for some runs. However, Roberton after making the first hit of this inning was caught out stealing at second before Cy. Greenwell connected with the apple for a safety. The Elks' were able to collect only 3 hits off of Fortin whilst the Gas-Eaters touched the horse-hide for 7 safeties. -■'• , Brown ajid Mckepwn were the big sticlcersin this fracas, each, batting 1,000. nHNHBti New Cup Presented For Anyox Tennis Tournament A new tournament has been arran ged and drawn for, the trophy being a t'up which is being donated *by the President, Mr. L.

Canada was not built up by pessimists, nor will Canada continue to develop if hei people allow themselves to become croakers and grouchers. Canada is fundamentally an agricultural country. We have a soil and climate which can grow the world's finest agricultural products. Canadian farmer s who have earned the capital invested in their farms out of profits in farming are numbered in thousands. These successful farmers have paid off their mortgages, stocked their barns and stables, bought their machinery, made a good liv ing and brought up their families. It meant hard work, but today they are independent. Money in Mixed Farming In recent years, at different points on the prairies, oats fed- to steers have brought from 70c to $1.07 as against the Fort William price of 42c per bushel, while barley used for the same purpose has brought as. high as 99c as against the Fort William price of 57c per bushel. Farmers marketing, their coarse grains in this way lower' marketing cost, have a sure market and make money on their grain, while at the same time they market their roughage, otherwise often wasted. The cattle'embargo is now off. Steers are worth more money and certain to make good money for the Canadian farmer from now on. Money in Pigs The Dbminion Experimental Farms have proved by actual test that there is a profit in feeding pigs. Last year at the Central Farm, Ottawa, after faying for feea, labor, interest and depreciation, the net profit per pig was still $4.63. Profits from Sheep As money-makers, sheep are hard to beat. In every Province .from Prince Edward Island to British Columbia are found many flocks returning generous profits to their owners, We Must Cut Production Costs Canada is meeting with the keenest competition in the marketing of her products. To hold her own and regain her place on the world's market, she must reduce cost of production. The only way to' do this is to increase production per acre, per cow or per other unit. But improved quality, also, IS essential to meet market demands. The quantity and the quality of the products and the cost of production in competitive countries is beyond our control Prices of agricultural products are regulated by, world supply and demand Hence, decreasing production. wiM not help the Canadian farmer. Poultry Pays Poultry makes money for those who adopt modern methods, whether East or West. Little Prince Edward Island markets co-operatively in carlots, shipping annually upwards of one million 'dozen eggs. The British Columbia Co-operative Poultry Men's Exchange markets in the same way, thus saying ruinous glut in their local market. There is a market for good Canadian horses, whether light or draught, Grow Seed Canada's Northern grown seed possesses extra vitality. There is a large market for it to the south. Canada exports seed potatoes, but imports other seeds. She has the opportunity to grow seeds for herself and for export. The Future i Ten years from now the pessimists of today will have been forgotten. Britain has removed the embargo against our cattle. She wants our beef and bacon, our cheese, butter, eggs and apples, our" wheat and flour. As the population of the United States increases, she will compete less and less against us on the British market. Eventually, she will herself be an importer of many other food stuffs besides wheat from this country. Canada has the men, the climate, the land, the stock and the potential markets necessary for agricultural success. Let us farm with all the industry and science we can muster. Let's' get to work and pay our debts. Canada is moving forward with confidence in its future. Let us keep going ahead.
