DELTA TIMES LADNER, B. C. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1913. $1.00 A YEAR. LACROSSE BOYS IWOULD CHANGE BEST TURNOUT THREE NEW SCHOOL HEALTH PLANNING DANCE WOMEN'S DRESS SINCE SPRINC CUPS GIVEN REPORTED GOOD Sunday aftermoion the steamer Scanlon, towing the ibig 'ferry scow, made a trial trip of the new ferry between Ladner and Woodward's Landing. Leaving Woodward's shortly after noon tho journey across tht Fraser river was made with a small party ln the motor'car of Road Master .McBride, of Richmond. Ferry Manager Black ward accompanied the parity. As soon as a landing was made in Ladner, Mr. John Johnston hurriedly uot his auto out of his garage and had the distinction of being tbe first man to drive a machine on to the ferry from the Delta side. He was followed by his :brother-in-law, Mr. West, in another car, and before the start back a number of .pedestrian citizens went aboard. Among these were Messrs. Geo. Baker, Jos. Jordan, Hamilton, Turner, Handford, Leonard, Lander and family and cithers. According to Mr. Baker, who rossed for the especial purpose of ascertaining the time it would take :o make the crossing, the trip over was made in a trifle under twenty minutes. The regular service will probably begin today, and there is likely to be considerable friendly rivalry in Ladner for the distinction of driving the first team on to the ferry. COURT DECIDES RACE.

The prizes will be more in number than ever, and the committees report greater interest than heretofore In ; the event. This year the Instituto | has for the first time received a do- i nation from the Department of Agriculture of British Columbia. This is in tbe form of two splendid silver cups, valued at fifty dollars each, a gift greatly appreciated by the ; farmers of Delta. Anothei new do- i nation is that of the Ladner Drag Hunt Club, a handsome silver cup. There are two cups now in com-- petition, one, known as the Burr Villa Hunt Club cup, for boys under eighteen at first entry, must be won three times to become the "iropertv of the competitor. Willie Gilchrist has two wins to his credit. The other cup, donaied by Mr. D. B. Grant, Is for narrow- cut plows, and must be won twice. Messrs. R. A. Coleman, W. Sheppa*rd and Jos. Harris have each won once. The collection committee reports good progress, and Its members are assured of the biggest prize money ever put up in Delta. Arrangements have been made to hold the contests on the W. Stokes farm, one mile east of Ladner on the Trunk road. In the evening a banquet will be held in the djning room of the Delta Hotel, at. which it is expected there will be one of the largest representative gatherings of agriculturists ever got about the festive board in Ladner. Dr. A. A. King, medical inspector i of the schools of Delta municipality, this week examined the children of ! Inverholme, Crescent Island, Westham Island and Canoe Pass schools. Dr. King says he finds a great improvement in the condition of the general health of the pupils, an evidence of an awakening among par- ; ents of tho necessity of correcting ! vision aud other ills. In one of the schools where on I former inspections fifty per cent, of the children were found to have defective vision, by simply changing about the seats so as to throw the light of the blackboard over the shoulders of the children this defect has beeu almosit entirely corrected. Now only three children of forty have any noticeable defect. The sanitation, while found to be as good as could be expected under the circumstances, is not modern; ventilation in most of the schools is good; light in some instances might be improved upon. It is expected that within a year modern sanitary appliances will be installed in all Delta schools, and that ventilation and light will be materially improved.

Communication was prostrated following the disaster, so that the first accounts of it did not reach Cuzco from Albacaya, the town which suffered most heavily, until last night. Orders were telegraphed from here to troops in Cuzco, only 40 miles from Albacaya, to go to the sufferers with relief. On their arrival they found conditions much worse than had been supposed. -Not only were all the towns in the quake zone practically- destroyed but vast slides were shaken down from the mountains, burying the ruins, tog-ether with dead and injured, under tons of eartb and rock.

VANCOUVER, Nov. 13.���"Agriculturally, Australia and New Zealand are ahead of British Columbia in luit two things, a greater development of the co-operative system and government loans to farmers," declared Mr. Alexander Lucas, M.P.P. for Vale, who returned on tin- S.S. Niagara yesterday after having spent two months in Australia and one month in New Zealand. The purpose of his long trip was to make a report ou the farming conditions in the two Dominions for tbe Royal Agricultural Commission of which he is it member. In tbe course of an interesting interview he summed up his impressions as above. He pointed out that the climate conditions there were very nearly the same as in this province and lhat there, as her", the agricultural industry was not much different from other industries. To increase the output the farmer must increase his capital and labor. The farmers iu New Zealand and Australasia had found that out and were on the highway to prosperity and wealth, Mill Give Statistics, While not. divulging the text of his report to the Agricultural Commission he said it. would give stalis- tlcal data in regard to the full amount of loans in the Commonwealth and in New Zealand, full particulars of the increased agricultural production, and comparative tables showing how lhe industry had increased I here as compared with tin- Increase in ihe United States, Canada and other countries.

VICTORIA, Nov. 13.���A vigorous defence of the railroad policy of the government, supported by figures of the actual work of construction, and a stirring appeal for a broader outlook on the question of Imperial naval defence, were the features of an address made by Sir Richard McBride lo an audience which filled every seat in the Kinemacolor Theatre here last night. So great was the demand for admission that some time before the hour for opening the meeting it was found necessary to close the doors, and hundreds who arrived later were unable to gain admission. Tiie Premier received an ovation on entering the building, and cheering was renewed when, after a few introductory remarks by Mr. William Blakemore, the chairman; Mr. H. B. .homeon, M.P.P., and Dr, H. E, Voting, minister of education, he rose to address the meeting. Unique in History. 'There has never been in the history of this country," said Sir Richard, "a railway policy that has been so faithfully carried out, and I challenge contradiction on this point. With regard to the Canadian Northern, we promised when we introduced that system to bring it lo Vancouver, Victoria and through the Island, nnd by tin- first day of .Inly, 1914, to have a, great section of the road completed. Record Building, "There has been a record made in railroad building In this province which no other part of tho Dominion can equal. There are today 220 miles of steel laid on the Mainland, and grading aud tracking is practically continuous on all the uncompleted sections from the tidewater on the Pacific to the eastern boundary of the province, with the exception of a small section. To those critics who say that m other transcontinental road was unnecessary I point out that the C. P.

How does the last Liberal administration with Its new transcontinental railway compare with the provincial government and the Canadian Northern .' The national road has already ��� isl c:i times ns much as the original estlmatp and tho policy of favoring the Canadian Northern In other parts of the Dominion becomes a crime when applied to this province. in addition to the Canadian Northern we have the Kettle Valley costing uver twenty millions, which will be through In eighteen months.

HUNTINGDON, Nov. 11.���More residences have been built in Huntingdon this year than in the much b.gger town of Sumas, jusi across the international boundary, and many of them are exceedingly fine structures. The new home of Mr. Geo. A. Gordon, "the Earl of Huntingdon," beautifully situated on the rising ground to the west of the town, is one of the finest homes on either side of the line. The house U modern In every respect, having its own water system, a modern heating plant, and most splendid plumbing. The new- home of Mr. Geo.' Hart, an engineer of the Canadian Pacilic Railway, is another line residence, just occupied. The building is an artistically designed two-storey solid brick structure. There are ten rooms, and the home is modernly equipped with all tlle conveniences of a city residence. The property is owned by Mr. Laplante, jf Sumas, Wash. Among the other new structures is a bachelors' club home on Fourth street, erected for a number Of unattached young men of Huntingdon, officers of the Quebec Bank, the mills and other business concerns. Mr. M. Murphy, proprietor of the Alexandra Hotel, has now Installed a water system of his own which he says is working admirably. The water is artesian and is of excellent quality, lt was found at a depth of thlrty-rour feet and a full stream is thrown three above the surface of the ground. A unique pumping plant has been installed for the purpose of elevating the water. An electric driven pump does the work, but the feature of the plant is the starting and stopping appliance. A guage is set at whatever pressure is thought advisable, and this is connected with a switchboard. Whenever the pressure becomes low this autoamtically starts the pumping plant, and when the prssure gets over a certain mark the current is automatically cut off and the pump stops, to start again at the call of the switchboard. The new Huntingdon school is almost completed and has become occupied in part since the beginning of the term. The school is being supplied with a water system and modern plumbing. It is heated by a warm-air furnace and its light and ventilation are practically perfect. In fact it. is claimed that the Huntingdon school is one of the best in any country section in British Columbia. It is thought that the recent meetings held by the farmers in the big Sumas Prairie dyking project area have been productive of good in that the contractors, L. M. Rice & Co., o feattle, have been stimulated to exert every effort to finance the proposition in time to start work in May, when their date for commencing under the contract expires. The machinery is now Installed in Uhe new sash and door factory to be operated by the Colonial Company, and Manager Galllnger expects to be able to start the plant within a fortnight.

The Cloverdale. Gun Club did not hold its regular weekly meet Saturday afternoon, but next Saturday it is expected there will be a good turnout of trap sportsmen. The date for the proposed second open shooting tournament has not yet yet been fixed, but will be held early in December. The success of the big Thanksgiving day shoot augurs well for the coming event. On Friday evening President E. S. Shannon of the Cloverdale Basketball Club, took his players down to New Westminster to meei the second team or Columbian college. The college won by a score of 15 to 13, but the Cloverdale boys put up a good fight and with a bit more practice Mr. Shannon hopes to have his aggregation in winning form. The team playing at New Westminster was composed of Messrs. Robinson (captain), Lane Brothers, Johnson and Sparling Brooks. A practice was held Saturday night and next Saturday evening a team from White Rock will play the boys here. The Cloverdale Literary Society will held a debate Tuesday evening, the subject being "Resolved that devotion to fashions is a greater evil than the tobacco habit." Two young men will contend for tobacco and two young ladies will take the side of fashions.

Notable Improvement Hits Taken Place in Province During Past l-'e\\v Vears. For n number of years there has been a steady advance ln the breeding of good horses In Hrilish Columbia, pure-bred Clyde-Males and heavy draughts In general being favored; during the last two or three years the demand for high-class milch cows has stimulated the raiting of pure-bred dairy stock; last year a ���fori was made In the breeding of beef stock. But never has much attention been given lo the hi ding of good hog and sheep slock. This year, however, for the first lime an inieresl Is noticeable in iiuality hogs and sheep. Particularly is ibis true of sheep. A well-known breeder of Oxford Downs says that never before this year has he had a demand tor pure-bred rams. Now he is completely sold out of young males, taken-by farmers who are beginning to realize the value of improving their bands. NORTH VANCOUVER, B.C., Nov. 13.���The construction department of the Pacific Great Eastern Railway Company has the work on the North Shore well in hand with every prospect that the track will be ready in good time for the inception of the service from Lonsdale avenue to Dun- darave on January 1st, 1914. The landing slip at the foot of Chesterfield avenue is practically completed and it Is expected that a construction engine will be brought over tomorrow to be followed at once by from 16 to 20 construction cars consisting of both flait and box cars, several of which will be the self-dumping type. A considerable stretch of track has already been laid and with the arrival of the engine and construction cars, the laying of steel and the bal- lsating will proceed rapidly and it is expected that the road will soon be complete from the fill of the Lonsdale estate to the western boundary of Capilano reserve. Work on the sections of the line from Newport as far as Clinton Is -being pushed very rapidly. In a report made to Premier McBride yesterday at which Messrs. P. Welch, J. W. Stewart and D'Arcy Tate were (present on behalj of the company, It was stated than there are now 4,000 men at work between this city and Kelly lake, near Clinton. On ithe first 200 miles out of Vancouver the grade, Mr. Stewart declares, is one half completed. With reference to the work between Clinton and Fort George it is not the intention to push that until steel can be brought through to Fort George on the Grand Trunk Pacific lines. The same firm of contractors have in hand the construction of the lines of the national transcontinental east and west of Fort George and as soon as that is finished the equipment now in use on that contract will be trnas- ferred to Pacific Great Eastern construction from Fort George south. With the opening of spring work will be in full swing in that district. No definite announcement is forthcoming with respect to the construction of the section from Point Atkinson to Newport beyond the repetition of the statement made by the principals to the effect that that section would be completed by the time that construction is finished to Fort George. In this connection, however, the construction that Is now being carried on on the North Shore Is of a nature that no changes whatever will be necessary in making it a portion of the main lines of the company. The grade is of standard construction throughout, the steel is of the heaviest and of lhe same class .that is being used along main line, the roadlied is laid on the grade of the through line and will end for the present at Horseshoe Bay, a hundred feet or more above the water's edge, but on the exact level that will be required In ordpr to continue it along the east shore of Howe Sound aud Newport, Trains are now In operation from Newport to Cheakiimus, a distance of fourteen miles. Two new powerful locomotives for use on the main line one of which has already been transferred to Newport and the other will follow In 8 few days. These are the first two of an order for 716 locomotives. An equipment of new cars consisting Of one first class coach, one second class coach, and one combined smoker and baggage car has been purchased and is now in operation on the line between these two points. The passenger service will be extended as rapidly as the line is handled over from the construction to the operating department. It Is experted that the entire line from Newport to Llllooet will be in operation next autumn. The cars for the local line from this city to Horseshoe Bay have been ordered and are to be delivered In December, It Is not anticipated that there will be any delay In this matter, and a prompt commencement of the service as far as Dundarave Is ep- pected on tho contract date.
