CARPENTER FIRST FARMERS' MARKET DAY NEXT SATURDAY New Market Hall on Second Street Ready for Business — Filled With Convenient Stalls - Farmers Will Bring Produce for Sale Next Saturday SEPARATOR AND ENGINE FORMS BASE COMPANY Will Send Reinforcements to Battle Line More Men Available Vernon, June 19.—Under the command of Col. VI. Mahlon Bavis, there is in camp today at Vernon a battalion which is not thirty days old and yet one which in class of ollicers and men may favorably be compared with any other unit yet sent against the toe, The most impressive thing about the men, and they are impressive even though tbey huve not yet drawn their uniforms, is their evident fitness and tbeir muscular Btrength. They are lean and hard. They come from all manner of open- air occupations and trades. Some of them were ranchers, others piloted the Canadian Pacific railway lake Steamers and still others herded cattle on the Cariboo road or in the country contingent thereto. It is a battalion of plain clothes men as yet, but a battalion of strong upstanding fellows, who probably weigh more, man for man, than tue average man on the etreet. Recruiting was begun on May 1, Thirty days later the battalion was practically complete. Today it is Calling for enough men to form a base company. This base company is the battalion's own private' reinforcement as a civilian would say. It is left at the battalion's base when the battalion goes into action and sends up men when wanted. Its strength will bring the strength of the battalion up to 11:10 men, tbe strength of the 29th Vancouver battalion. In addition to recruiting for a base company a draft of 235 officers and men is to be • sent away before the end of the month from the 54th and men are wanted to fill their places. The 54th battalion has secured permission to call itself the 51th Kootenay battalion. Its recruiting territory consists of practically the entire interior of the province. Vet to bring itself up to strength it found that it was unnecessary to go far away from the towns of Nelson, Fernie, Grand Forks, Cranbrook, Golden, Rossland, Kamloops, 1'entictou, Princeton and Revelstoke. Lieut. Archer went up in the Cariboo road as far as Quesnel and secured til men along tbe road and at Quesnel. There are several score men at Fort (George who have "wanted on." They will get their chance later in the month. From a rough survey of the situation iu the interior it is believed that there are enough men available to torn not only one or two infantry battalions, but several, as many as the government can eguip with uniforms and accoutrements in face. The 54th Kootenay battalion has in its ranks ranchers, prospectors, miners, pilots, mates, firemen, brakesmen, lawyers, doctors, newspaper men, bank clerks, engineers, businessmen, cow boys and men who have always lived in tbe open and worked there. One Boundary newspaper sent eight of its employees to the 54th and had to entirely reorganize its staff, Capt. W. Garland Foster of Nelson was the editor of that, paper. Col. W. Mnhlnn Davil came from Vancouver. He is a consulting engineer to the harbor I oard of tbe North Fraser Harbor. He was formerly City engineer In Woodstock and Berlin, dilating class from the Royal Milit- Hc was a member of the first grn- nry college, Kingston. He wns 13 years adjutant of tb" Oxford Ritles, brigade major ..f the Bet md Infantry Brigade at London, Ont., for four years, and organized the 24th Grey's Horse. He wns born at Aylmer, El gin County, Ontario. He was in command of the engineer section of the Vancouver Volunteer Reserve before i he took command ot the 54th Koot- j enay. His second in command is Major IE. G. Kendall of Kaslo. Other officers on the staff are: Major R. D. Bavies of Cranbrook; Capt. William Neilson, adjutant, Fruitvale; Capt. R, H. Green, Victoria, paymaster; Capt. W. Garland Foster, quartermaster, Nelson; Lieut, Ridgway Wilson of Victoria, son of Major Ridgway Wilson, signalling officer; Capt. Rev. White of Elmrne, chapl tin.

The following ter was sent to R. F. Green, .'.1 for Kootenay. R. F. Green, Ottawa, We understand there are large numbers of interned men in Yoho a ,d Band parks und the citizens and board of trade believe that some hundreds should be placed in Revelstoke park, we understand there are a large number of those interned unemployed at Vernon. Kindly place this before the proper authorities and anything you can do toward having a number come here will be .pprc- Ciated. As you are aware Revel.--., j has already contributed large . •■ n- bers of1 men for the front and monl de. field work for the Geological Ourvey of Canads in the neighborhood of Stewart river. Monarch Mine at Field is Operated The, Great Western Mines Bevtlop- •nent company of Vancouver has taken a lease and bond on tbe Monarch mine and mill at r'ield and has located as placer grotinu the old dumps with a view to Working tbem for zinc. The company made uu issue ot shares for working the property and the issue was over suuseribed. Newton Vi. Emmens is in churge of operations at Field, and tn a report to Vi. Gray, managiug director of the company, of a recent date, he stated: "We are malting rapid progress with the tramline and mill. The light-of-way for the tram has been cleared and the foundations for the towers is being got ready to crush ore hy Friday next and we ought to be in steady operation thereafter. With the changes that are being made to the machinery and thc classification system we expect to turn out a /-ine concentrate containing close to SO per cent. metallic zinc, and a lead concentrate of over 70 per cent, metallic lead. The assay oilice is in shape and our chemist, Mr. Comrie, has commenced making a series of assays of the lower part ol the dump and of some ore which is in the upper terminal ot the truin and in the lower raise. There iB a considerable tonnage ot tins ore- tome 200 tons—and we arc going to put it througb so as to get the mill adjusted on it. At the lower end of of the dump there is u Considerable amount of galena, and we propose to gather this up tirst so ab to be able to ship thc lead; we also propose to re-concentrate the zinc so as to get rid of the lime and to separate the iead. "in cleaning up around the tnlll we have come across a lot i.f material heavy in lead; tins we pr iposi to inn through tei save the galena. I expect to have several cars ol clean galena to ship to Trull within the next couple of weeks. We have not had time to go thoroughly over the mine yet, as it is necessary to do some repair work to the trail leading to lt. This will be done in the next day or so nei the mine sampled, tbe results of which will be sent you. For your Information I may say that from what Hake tells nun there is little \\ doubt of our picking up the lost ore- :lody within 100 feet, of where work iuspended. "From what I bave seen of thc formation and tie' Luge quantity ..I galena float t'i be found in the glides, I am convinced tbat there are extensive bodies of galena nre in thc Monarch ground which win yield very handsome profits. Th" more 1 nee of this property, the more I am convinced thai wc are going 'omnke n handsome proflt—noi only from the zinc—hut from the lend."

Canadian Welfare League Cares Fof New-comers, Winnipeg's Civic Industrial Bureau holds many interesting things and people, but, tucked away in one of the second-storey rooms I found something and somebody symbolizing much in Canadian national life—tha Canadian Welfare League and its secretary, says Florence Randall Livesay in a recent article. A man with the face of a practical idealist, if you can Imagine such a combination, is giving himself and his undoubted literary and magnetic powers to the betterment of his country, with a fine abandon of strength and energy, tempered with the saving grace of humor and of good sense; delighting in it. since "happy is the man who has found his work." Toornto University has sent many of her best men to the West, and, while they do not forget their Alma Mat>r. they Inevitably become absorbed in the new field, and soon are surprised to find themselves quite willing to ho classed as " good westerner. Mr. Woodsworth was a student at Victoria College before Manitoba University took him to her sheltering arms, and later he took a post-graduate course at Oxford. While there he made a special study of settlement work, and spent some time in the slums of East London. It was natural, then, that yvhile engaged in a ministerial capacity in Winnipeg he should give full play to the bent shown in his college days, and the work being done by Mrs. Margaret Pcott and others in forming the Winnipeg Coffee and Lodging House claimed h^ energies. Tiat led eventually en thi taking over of tho 1 nf civic relief by tbe Associated Charities (formed with this end In view), and after that the Playground Commission, wider use of ny Important civic re- found In the si cretary ot ".'• Ifan : ' an enthusiastic helni •■ J- is chli ;!v with Ml People's MIs- :i... foreign lm- ts bot his l lias up to the ; ■ nt i • n hi undated, Mr. Voodsworth's record yvill show th ■ eci - ilty for this latest venture Into natlon-buildlng, and he, ban .'"!• other man in Canada, is in a position to know what need! doni . Practically the only two books on he great subject of work among Canadian foreign Immigrants claim him as author, theso being "The Stranger Within Our Gates" and "My Neighbor." They are wrilten in a delightfully sympathetic way, and all his statistics and "cases" aro so informed with humor and comprehension of the stranger's outlook; ethat one realizes that If this reformer had not his whole heart ln "doing things" he would have made a high place for himself as a writer. Dur^ ing the past six years he hns delivered over 500 addresses from Halifax to Vancouver, at the Invitation of various societies. Then there is his "People's Fof um," a Sunday afternoon gathering addressed weekly by men of all nations, a highly successful attempt to make progress ln the understanding of the foreigner's viewpoint ln Canada, and an assurance to him th,.t the adopted country ls anxious to help him to help himself. The Forum haa permanent headquarters now In the splendid auditorium of the St> John's Technical Institute. One of the chief objects of tho league Ib the giving out of all Information looking towards the solution of social and economic problems, and raising the standard ot citizen* ship and national life.
