Thus the Ottomans, who With tho exception of the Montene- Brians aro tho only delegates left in London, remarked today that nobody could accuse them of not having doni all that was humanely possible to come to terms.

Dr. Frledmann said tonight that he gave up bis proposed trip to New York because of an Invitation received from Director Kirch- ner of the medical section of the German home office, to go there and talk over the subject of tbe offer of the scrum ■ by Friedmann to the German government for the benefit of humanity, its use to be under government supervision. According to Friedmann the interview with 'he home office took place yesterday and was a lengthy one. Friedmann says Director Klrchner showed, great interest and stated that the home office would now consider what further steps should be taken. Friedmann says he has been invited to another conference and that he does not feel justified In leaving Germany under the circumstances. He urged Klrchner, he. adds, to hasten matters. ''I will sail anyhow for America shortly to redeem my promise," said ■Dr. Friedmann. "If necessary I will make a short visit to America returning to Berlin to resume my negotiation-* with the home office." Dr. Friedmann had arranged to take with him to New York his assistant, Dr. Benjamin, and a woman nurse, Who has acted as his laboratory chemist, and who is, said to share with him the secret of his serum, which he claims Is a culture of live germs that originally came from the blood of a turtle*. - Dr. Frledmann now asserts that his treatment* produces no abscesses.

';;:_*__ NEW METHOD OF ' WEATHER PROPHECY At a recent meeting, of.-the-Royal Meteorlogioul society in London Prof.' H. Bassett aid he believed -that a series of observational'stations in the Irish. Sea would enable * meteorologists to forecast the weather for England and a portion of the weather for England and a portion of the. continent "four or five months ahead." What will seem the most remarkable part of thin statfm**nt^ tri Hip lavm-in at least, Is the sort of observations that are to make such long-range forecasts possible. These are simply tests of the saltness and temperature ot the sea water. These two. conditions, said Professor Bassett, are now known to affect very markedly meteorological phenomena. Hydrographic investigations carried out in the north Atlantic during the last 15 years left no doubt as to this. His own recent studies of salinity In the Irish Sea had convinced him that tbe keeping of salinity records for a number of stations an that body of"water, wouid go very far towards solving the weather forecasting problem.

SUNDAY AMUSEMENTS. There will be general agreement with the action of the civic authorities ln .forcing places of public amusement to remain dosed on Sunday. In say- in-*£thls The Daily News believes that nq. particular harm would come of these places being open on Sunday, bm there is a large section of the com munlty to whom such a condition wculd toe distasteful, while generally the spirit of the country is against the Introduction of the American Sabbath. There are six duys a week upon which the offerings of these places of amusement may he enjoyed, without question or- interference. The seventh day was originally sol apart as a day of rest, and Is now devoted to religious exercises by a large section of tbe community. In British Columbia, however, it la an accepted ruB that everyone may spend''-the day- acjjjprding to individual Inclination, tho only condition being that no place of amusement may be run for profit or. that day. The opening of the rink: and the theatres on Sunday would bt a departure from the understanding under Which a liberty of action In the matter of Sabbath observance is allow ed;that Is not enjoyed elsewhere in ihe Dominion. ll it not better to retain conditions as they exist rather than introduce innovations which might result in reaction and legislative restriction of the liberties now enjoyed? money, the interest upon which it Is obliged to pay, the principal being represented by the money now on deposit Jn the bank, whHe the Royal bank has the use of about $6,000,000 upon which the government Is obliged t? pay interest to the bondholders. . That is the position as it appears to an outsider. Just how long it #111 continue remains to be seen. Apparently If they bo desire the bondholders can leave their money in the bank and draw Interest on It until the due date of the bonds, when the principal would be returned to them by the bank. The alternative is to accept repayment of the money or glvfe the province permission to divert it to generaj purposes rather than to railway construction for which It was intended. In any case, however, it would appear that Alberta Is suffering from incapacity in lhe direction of affairs under the present administration as well as under its predecessor.

The'stfhte document authorized him to "receive Into the said ships and every of them, all such maa- ters, mariners, pages, and our subjects as of their own free will go and pass with hlin to the aald land or Isles." And all officers and subjects of the crown were thereby enjoined to help and "succour the said John" in his undertaking. ed with his own, but tlie second patent refers to the elder Cabot alone.

ALBERTA'S MUDDLE. The province of Alberta finds itself lnra most unpleasant position as a re suit of the decision of the Imperial privy council that It cannot attach money, some $6,000,000, lying 'in the Royal Bank of Canada, being the pro ee'eds of the sale ot the Alberta & Great Waterways railway's bonds, tlu principal and interest of which hae been guaranteed by the province. Later the improvidence of the government's arrangement with the Al berta & Great'Waterways railway toe came apparent even to the friend:* anc supporters of the administration, with the result that Premier Rutherford and his cabinet were forced to resign A liew government wan formed undo: tllfe premiership of Hon. Arthur 1*. Sljijion, -who stepped down 'rom tht chief justiceship of the province to accept the position. ^he contract with the Alberta £.

The highest courl in the Empire has now declared that the province has no right to do this, arfd that the money really belongs to those who advanced It. The sltuatltjn now Is that no attempt has been made to build tho railway, the necessity for which was enlarged upon to such an extent at tlu time-the original deal wus made,-the province cannot get the use of the The Weather INMHUKO lUHATWES are best for nursing mothers because they do not affect the rest of the system.

TJAVE you ever met your real customer? -*"*- Have your salesmen a speaking acquaintance with him? Have you told him about the merits of your product? Have you explained why he should give your goods the preference? Have you done anything to stimulate his desire for your goods? In short, have you made any attempt whatever to sell your goods to him? "Most assuredly," you say. "Every dealer in Canada is known to our travelers, and we certainly wouldn't pay a salesman who couldn't tell our customers all " One minute, please. The dealer isn't your customer. He's simply a part of your sales organization, and a decidedly independent part of it at that. He is distributor for other concerns in whose goods he is just as much interested as he is. in yours. And he isn't particularly interested in your product, any more than in your competitors'. The dealer realizes that he can serve six who order their goods by a well-known trade name as quickly as he can serve one to whom he has to demonstrate that a product is good. Your real customer is the Public—- the Public who wears your clothing, eats your pickles, uses your safety razor. You've got to sell your goods to the Public. When the user wants your goods and won't take any othei-—-then you are independent of all but him, your real customer. To make the user want your goods, you must do two things: (1) Produce an article of value. (2) Tell him what you make, and why he should prefer it. That's advertising.

(By Dally News Leased Wire.) KANSAS CITY, Feb. 2.—Only the persistent-, efforts of counsel saved William Nelson, editor and owner o; the Kansas City Star, from jail yesterday after a sentence oi one day's Im prisonment for contempt had been pro nounced by Judge Joseph A. Guthrie- of the Jnckson County circuit court. The charge was that Mr. Neljon. through his paper, hud defamed the court in the publication of an article, stating thut the judge, upon the advice of a- divorce lawyer, hud allowed attorneys' fees to take precedence ovei alimony in a divorce suit that Wat. dismissed without being brought tc trial. When Sheriff -Wlnstanley took Mr. Nelson, who Is 76 years old, by the nrm and started to lead him ta Jail Mr. Nelson paid quietly: "I'll not run away," and started to go with him. (Frank P. Welch, counsel for Mr. Nel son, protested.against his client being denied the right of a few momentn consultation with him. "Fulfill the order, Mr. Shorlff," caid Judge Guthrie. "This court Is through with the cage." Court Re*.*jnt8. The court finally relented and granted ten mifnutes ln which to present, a writ of habeas corpus and presently one ot Mr. Welch's assistants, bearing the writ, pushed through the crowd which filled the courtroom. Execution of the sentence being stayed, the defendant wu3 taken in. medlutely to the Kansas City court oi appeals, where Judge J. iti. ■ ■c.-m.-jii rt-ieastd Mr. Nelson on hla own recognizances, no 'bail being royutrou, lo appear for a hearing on Wednesday, l-'eb. 6. Judge Guthrie's finding Mr. Nelson guilty of contempt cunie after the court's refusal to permit the Introduction of evidence to show Ihiit the statement in the article complained of that a judge had allowed a dlvoic-e lawyer to decldl' whether alimony or a lawyer's fee should be allowed referred to tho judge of another court. In pronouncing Mr. Nelson guilty, thr Judge said that the,editor in publishing a statement thut the court upon advice of a "paid1 attorney" had granted divorce attorneys their fees "and left a woman who sought alimony to starve," had printed a "sneer" at the judge and a sneer at the bench In genera], thereby tending- to bring judicial procedure Into disrepute. "And (or this," said the judge, "I havo a grim determination that the Jefendant be punished. This court is In sympathy with proper attempts to bring about divorce court reform, but ■ilir- defendant's action Is to ridicule and criticize this court." Will Not Go to Jail. "Mr. Nelaon never will spent one minute in the county jail," said Judge It. Lathshaw of the criminal court here tonight. Judge Lathshaw has jurisdiction over the county marshal and the jail, nnd he ordered the marshal never to enter Mr. Nelson's name on th.fi recording 'book of the jail If he should ever be brought there in obedi- ence to the sentence imposed upon him todny. "It would be a reproach to the com* monwenlth -or a man who has'done as much for Kansas City as Mr. Nelson has done to ' carted away to Jail like a common thug. I will not allow such a procedure."

(By Dollar Ne**-. Leased Wire.) OTTAWA, Feb. 2.-Ottawa took the cibBest same of tho season from* the Canadians at tne arena last night, winning by two goalB to one. The match was the first played under the seven- man rule and play was very' fast throughout. Checking- was hard and close, however, so much so that lt was not spectacular play and there was little combination on either side. .The Canadiens secured a lead of one goal five minutes after the start on a long shot from Smith and afterward they ployed mostly a defence game. There was no score in the balance of the first and none at all In the second, but ln tho third Ottawa pressed the play and after four minutes' play Dennison tied tho score on a pretty play. . A few minutes later the entire Ottawa team rushed to the attack and Lake shot from behind the nets, the puck striking Vezina and glancing into the net, That was the last score of the game. The Canadlens tried hard to equalize, but the Ottawa defence was too strong.

WANDERERS ONLY JUST NOSE OUT WIN Torontos on Aggressive From Com- menoement of Play—Beaten Noar Call of Time. (By Doily News Leased Wire.) MONTREAL, FeD. 2.—Going at top speed from start to finish It was not until within 46 seconds of the expiration ot time that the Wanderers nosed out a 3 to 2 victory over the Torontos on Saturuay night. For the second time tins Bi'iison o, Cleghorn, through one of hla brilliant rushes, Boved overtime being played by securing tho odd point and scoring the victory. In the opening game of the return to seven-man play not only the Wanderers, but tliu 3-GUO persons ln attendance at the ai-t-'iiii Were treated to a surprise. The majority of thos-e who witnessed the match took the result or thu same as a foregone conclusion und looked for a decisive victory. From the com menoement of the play Jack Marshall's bund ot youngsters be- cuino the aggressors. For the first 'JO minutes they had all the best of tbe play, leading tho winners by n single Kiml at the first resting period. They tied tho score durln-j the third session nnd were beaten out in the final strides. Thu return of the seven man style was not pleasing to the fans, the concensus ot opinion being* that the game was one of the poorest exhibitions of hockey played In Montreal this winter. It was marked with more numerous offensive plays, brought about by the forwards of both teams trying combinations. At times tlie forwards of one team and the defence of the other would become bunched In ono of the corners, making the gamo drag. Line-up: Wanderers. Torontos.

(By Dallv Naws leased Wire.) TORONTO, Ont., Feb. 2.—Going Into overtime in their last three games, the Tecumsehs have ■ become* known as the overtime specialists nf the N.H.A. At the arena on Saturday night they were beaten 5 to 4 by Quebec fn lt minutes extra play. The game was the first NlHiA, fixture in -Toronto in.which tho -full com piement of seven men was used by the teams. The players, accustomed to "the bobtalled kind," made as good O showing as the original game of hockey as O.H.A. teamt- would be 'expected to mnke'were they experimenting with six men n-slde. The men found It difficult to break away from the individual rushes and utter lack of team* play which characterlx.es the six-men game, arid consequently the first period was slow, the score being 3 to 1 in favor of Quebec. The play era bunched. and neglected to play their positions. The two remaining- periods, however, furnished brilliant hockey, and as excellent a game as the professionals have played here this season. There was no scoring in the second period. In the third Quebec made tht score -1 to 2, which was followed quickly by tho Braves making it 4 to 3. With two minutes to play the Indian.- tied the count.

GRAND FORKS BEATS GREENWOOD EASILY Eight to One Is Score in Favor of Leaders in Boundary League. (Special to Ttts Dally News.) GRAND FORKS, B. C, Feb. 2.— Grand Forks eight, Greenwood one, wn& the "surprise package" handed to the homo team on their own Ice at Greenwood on Thursday evening by tin- Grand Forks septet in the Round nry hockey league, when tho team from the Gateway City put it nil over the' Greenwood seven. A snecial trafn over the Canadian Pacific carried the Grand Forks seven tn Greenwood, accompanied by over 200 supporters of the team who were willing to back the local boys in their second gnme with the Greenwood: seven, although the hitter hnd defeat-'1 c-ii the Grand Forka seven In this city on Jan. 24. Tho Grand Forks boys were prepared to avenge the winning which Greenwood scored In their previous gamo and went after the score from the start. Grand Forks had the best of the gamo throughout, and at no time did they give their opponents a clear field. The faceoff was followed by s-imc very close checking until Lynne, Grand Forks' star centre, got away with the puck and In a whirlwind r'ucli down the centre of the ice notched tho first goal for the local team. After the faceoff the puck travelled up and down the ice until Lynne again sc cvred it from a scrimmage In front of thi* Greenwood goal and notched the second tally for Grand Forks, [lie first period ending 2-0 in favor of the Forks. i In the second period some of thi far-test hockey ever seen in the Bound ary was Witnessed and was cboerei to tho echo. SlcWha, tho Grand Forks rover, whjo had' his shoulder hoti- bi-nken in practice at the first of thi season and who played a. brilliant gnme throughout, secured the puck .at centre, and fooling the ilefence, scored the third goal for Grand Forks, Lynne, who was In excellent form, wns now displaying some of his specialties in the get away line, made It exceedingly interesting for tho Greenwood goalee, scoring -the fourth tally and shortly afterwards on a pass from Ware notched the fifth goal for thi Gateway City team. This was followed In qluck succession by McGregor, who made the spectacular rush of the evening. Receiving the puck on the defence, he cleared the Ice, passing tlie three Greenwood defence men and notched the sixth goal E*jr the Forks. The second period ended six to nothing in favor of the visitors. After the opening of the third period! Munn, the Grand Fork"' point, not to be outdone by McGregor, secured and took the little rubber down the left wing all tho way from the Grand Forks' goal, passed the Greenwood defence, and scored on a neat shot from ■thi; side, registering the seventh goal for Grand Forks. About this time the Greenwood forwards got busy, and Russell, on a neat pass from McDonald, registered the first tally for -tin- Greenwood boys. A second attempt was mado by the same players, bul "Chuck" was there with the goods, and turned the little rubber aside.

KocJtenny.a^d Bouodarsfwllt'be" vls- itccJ early next fail bytpnrtles of members of the Internationa) Geological congress of which H. Mortimer-Lamb, secretary of the Canadian Mining- Institute, has contributed the following article: Within the last 20 or 25 years, the science oi geology has developed In a direction that has brought it into direct and serviceable association with those classes of commercial enterprise that are dependent on engineering, While this Is especially true in respect ot mining, lt applies almost equally t) railroading, municipal engineering, anc" other activities of like nature. The dependence of mining on geology is attested, for example, by the fact that a geologist is now invariably Included on the permanent staff of every minlrg corporation of importance; and t*in demand In recent years for the services of capable men to occupy such petitions has been cjuite out of the proportion to the supply. It 13 recognized universally. In short, that the Cvht ot the mining Industry to geology is enormous, and the obligation continues to Increase steadily. This largely explains the circumstance that the Invitation to the International Geo- lcglcaj congress to hpld the next meet- iti!" ln Canada wag made, not only at tha instance of the Canadian and Ontario governments, and of the Royal Society of Canada, but at that of the Cnradian Mining institute, an association representative, in a truly na tlonal sense, of the mining Industry of thlf- country. It is .believed that this meeting will immensely benefit mln- Inr. in the Dominion. From tho educational and the scientific standpoints, much is to be expected from the interchange, of views on Canadian conditions and Droblems, by men of International reputations. On purely commercial grounds, the interest and attention that will be directed to the mineral resources and to the opportunities for the investment of capital ln mining undertakings In Canada, In themselves fully justify the extensive preparations that are being made and the expense that Is being incurred in anticipation of tho event. Judging from the character of the attendance in the nast, almost every -civilized nation will bo represented at the Canadian meeting by men of recognized eminence, including distinguished government officials, geologists and mtn- Inu' engineers In consulting practice, geographers, great educationalists nnd writers of text books. Thus surely never a better, a more effective opportunity has presented itself of providing for the wide-spread disseminations of aulhoratlve Information on Canadian resources and potentalltles.

Box 147, Nelson, B. C far sympathetic co-operntlona is made to all classes and to the mining com niunlty in particular. The congress has held many meetings In other countries. In all, It has been welcomed with open arms. That record must bo nt least attained. Meanwhile, before proceeding to re- count what progress has been made so ft." with the arrangements for the meeting and for/, thai Instruction and entertainment of'ttie, visitors, a word or two should be said concerning the International Geological congress Itself. In the year 1878, at the International exhibition at Philadelphia, there was displayed a collection of geological maps and sections from both America and Europe. It had the effect of impressing on geologists who saw it the advantage of providing opportunities ana means for comparative study; and in consequence, In August, 1876, at the annual meeting of the American Association for IJle Advancement of Science, at Buffalo, under the presl- Joiicy of Prof. William B. Rogers, the LU-rject of -the foundation of the congress was broached, received favorably und a committee was appointed to arrange for the first meeting, held two yeurs later In Paris. It is worthy of remark that the secretary of the committee in question was that distinguished chemist and geologist, Dr. T. Surry Hunt;, who from 1847 to 1872 was chemist and mineralogist to the Geological Survey of Canada. The objects of the congress may he very briefly and succlntly summarised in th- general statement that by means ot the periodical meetings the results of knowledge required In one country aro given a universal application and si/rnitlcance. The congress endeavors U provide, for example, for the adoption of uniform systems of mapping, nomenclature and classification 0f nicks,, f sslls and minerals; and In other^dlrections broadens the boundaries "and extends the usefulness of geological science. One achievement, In particular that may be mentioned, Is the compilation of a geological map of Europe, shortly to be Issued; and it is now proposed to undertake the preparation of a similar geological map of the wurld. The congress, so fnr, has met only twice on this side of the Atlantic. Socially and scientifically, the last meeting In Sweden was notably sue ccssful. The opening session was attended by the King of Sweden In per sen. while at the sessions devoted to tiie discussion of economic problems, a number of the cabinet ministers prov- ■*d their Interpst and sense of the lm- oortance of the occasion by their presence. The arrangements for the conduct bf the meetin---, for the entertainment of the visiting scientists, anc. ln connection with the several excursions, were planned and carried ui*l with extraordinary ability and oreclsion; and It will require every i-fiort on the nart of Canadians to even uqi.al the standard set by Sweden in these respects. It is. scarcely necessary to say, however, that no pains ut-3 being spared by an energetic and representative executive committee, to Which has been entrusted the task of preparing a programme for the twelfth or Canadian meeting of the congress. The excursions, more especially on the occasion of recent meetings, have been given special prominence. These have two main purposes; one to illustrate, so far as possible the subjects di-rcussed; end.the ctw-r fo afford visiting members the opportunity of studying the features of geological Interest percullar to tbe country ln wl? Ich the. congress assembles. In connection 'with the arrangements for tin; Canadian meeting, provision has | been made for over 80 excursions to ■ mining districts and other localities of geological Interest In Canada, be- .v, | tween the extreme eait and we$t of On Coal Resources. The Swedish meeting was marked especially by the publication of1 a monumental work on "The Iron Ore Resources of the World," to which re ports on the distribution and supply of Iron in the respective countries were contributed by eminent authorities. Thy executive committee of the twelfth congress are to be very heartily con? gratulated on the decision to emulate this example by-undertaking the compilation of a companion work on the "Coal Resources of the World." Incidentally, this report should serve to direct wider ateentlon to the magnitude and value of Canadian resources. The subject of coal resources and supplies, will moreover, form one of. the principal topics for discussion at the meeting in Toronto; while other topics of no less economic Interest, notably that Of the influence of depth on the character of metalliferous deposits, are t.i be debated. It Is unnecessary here, however, .to further discuss details, the purpose of lrti> present notes being to give merely a general idea of the aims and work of the congress and of the significance iittaching to Its meeting in this country.

Every normal minded man wishes to get nil he can out of life—hut many a man knuws that he is fulling far short, ,,.- The successful man works, eats and plays with the keenest enjoyment, because his nerves are keenly sensitive. Hc tastes, hears, sees and feels all with tliu highest emotion-* of vigorous, healthy nerves, As a consequence he has stamina, endurance, and personal magetlsm, whieh makes those near and dear to, lilm worship his manliness, chivalry and strenuousnuss. Without keen, sensitive, well nourished norves, such a man would be an object of pity, and not the brilliant success he is. All men should havo well-nourished nerves, but If the blood and vital organs do not supply tho chemical or substance known as nerve fluid, then the waste of the nerves is not renewed dally nnd hourly aa It should ue. The nerves become exhausted, giving rise to such symptoms as Humbling hands and limbs, cold feet and hands, melancholia, hysteria, timidity, nervousness, slei-plt-ssiiGSH, dtazltiess, heart palpitation, pains in the hack, headache, iangour aud weariness at all times, A most valuable ucrvo treatment, restorative In every sense, Is to lit: found In the following prescription, emanating, lt Is said, from a brilliant and successful specialist ou nervous ailments: The treatment can he prepared In the privacy of home and thus causes no ono any embarrassment. First, get three ounces of syrup of sarsaparllla compound In a six ounce bottlo. Tu this add one ounce of compound fluid ■balmwort, shake well and let stand two hours, Then ndd-; one ounce of tincture cadomene compound (nut cardamom) nnd one ■•unci* of compound essence eardlol. Mix, Shake well and take -a- tcaspoonful after each meal and ono when retiring,' It Is astonishing to feel thu new nerve force, tho steadied nerves, and the control of every muscle In the body after using tlilB, Overworked office men, and many victims of aocloty's- late hours and dissipation will sun-ly find In this tlio resiomtvo,. rejuvenating force they are purely In neod of.' Tlie Ingredients are used In various prescriptions and nny good druggist, can sunply them. Poultry Keeping in the Kootenays Ducks—The Modern Egg Machines and Money Makers (W. N. Scott, Trail, B, C.) '' * Of the making of new breeds of poultry thero la apparently no end, each one claiming to be embodiment of the perfections of till other breeds. It is pretty generally admitted, however, that wo have about reached tho limit and that future progress will be In perfecting feather and shapB and developing to the maximum of egg production. Within the last five years there has been a distinct awakening of public interest In duck raising for egg production. Tho enormous duck ranches of Long Island and the New England States, some of them turning out 100,000 ducks annually* have been run exclusively to cater to tho green duck market of New York, Boston and Philadelphia. Practically thy only breed kept were Mammoth Peking, which by careful feeding and selection of breeders were increased In size about 50 per cent. The original Chinese Pekins only weighed about 10 lbs. per pair. The remarkable revival of Interest however, Is duck raising Is duo to another cause, viz.: the development of the egg type of duck and a recognition of their wonderful egglayin-* powers, Australia was the first country to give them public recognition by running duck egg-laying contests in connection with the contests for hens, which have been held for the past 10 years at Hawkesbury college, New South Wales. To say that the result:? of those 12 months tests wero eyi openers to the poultrymcn of the world would be putting lt mildly. The varieties under test were white and fawn and white, Indian Runners ami a few Buff Orpington and Cantonese ducks. These with a New England variety the Khaki-Campbell duck are known as the egg-type or leghorns of the duclt family, while I'ckin, Aylesbury's and Ravens, -are the flesh or market type. There is no comparison between the two classes' any more than between a leghorn and a brahma. Both lots are grand birds, but oach for a different purpose, The Australian contests were run witli first, second and third-year classes In both hens and ducks so as to test out thoroughly the relative merits of each and to find out to what age a hen and a duck may be said to be profitable. [In the tests nt Cambridge, New Zealand, a Pen of six ducks laid 900 eggs In six months. The world's record is 338 in six months ahd the world year record is 270 eggs each from a pen of four ducks. At this contest the leading three pens out of * x competing averaged 1323 per pen of six ducks, while the ■leading pen of hens out of over 70 pens only produced a few over 1200 eggs. When It came 'to the two-year lest the liens were simply outclassed. At Hawkesbury coilego Lh,o leading pen of lions were between" ono 'riml* twtf hundred eggs ahead of the ducks nt the end of the first year. At the end of the first six months of the second year the ducks pulled up Uie deficit and were close on two hundred ahead, the totals being 1910 and 1702 for 18 months. The latest report gives the results of tlie 10th annual contest. The winning totnl of the first year ducks wus 1245 eggs and tjie lowest was 714, aii average of 17-iOi eggs per duck and of 178.5 for the Indian runners alone. Some.of the monthly averages went as high as 26 eggs per duck for the entire lot of 90 birds. The second year. lot consisted of six pens (hat had laid an average of 185 each during their first year. Tho winning totu) was 985 and the average was 13lS eggs per duck. Only four pens of selected pullets in the entire contest recently held at Vancouver equalled tills aver age and two of them were pens from Australia. --. i The third year lot consisted of our pens that had averaged 188.G in their first year and 176 in their second year test. The third year winning total was S2f> and the average 120.5 eggs per duck. The average of the entire Leghorn class nt the Vancouver contest was only 109. Last year tho average In second year ducks was much higher, belmi 17", while the leading pen after, laying an average of 199 each in a week lest than nine months, were all killed by a fox. No wonder D. S. Thompson, the poultry expert, says In his report to tlie government: "The second year duek test has been a surprise o us and no doubt will be equally so to the besi; poultry thinkers of the world. The test has demonstrated that the Indian runner duek will lay better In the second year than any of the breeds of fowls ln their second season. The grand total for. the two year tost was 23(19 eggs by White Leghorns against a total of 24C4 eggs iby the ducks." Records from private pens run up to over 300 eggs in 365 days and of over 100 eggs in succession, without a- break. They are rightly named "Modern Egg Machines." I find them not nearly so noisy ns the Pekins and very much easier to keep, us they are great foragers, white they are really heavier than they appear as the feathers are hard and close like a leghorn. They aro unsurpassed for a table duck, having more "gamey" flavor than tho Pekln, while the eggs are very fine for all culinary purposes. Ducks are natural scavengers and if allowed access to offal or garbage will soon consume enough to mako the eggs strong, but properly fed, as you would your liens on clean mash und grain, tho eggs of the Indian Runner ar«i very .fine and on account of their size generally bring 10c a dozen more. The eggs are generally fertile nnd hatch well under hens, but only the very large incubators equipped with special ventilation for the purpose will hatch duck eggs with nny success. Eggs for lintclilng'.should not he over eight or nine days old. Contrary to tho general opinion n pond or swimming pool Is not necessary. My dueks have perfect liberty to go to the Columbia river, 150 feet from their pen, ;but never do so, preferring a puddle hole tinder the tap in the yard to dibble, in. •\ puddle 1'mlu. Is nil Hint is neees- sury, cement lined, if you ean afford it, or a large barrel cut In half ami sunk in the ground answers splendidly If kept full during the hot weather. When the birds ure confined for the winter a drink can, deep enoiigh to dip the bill in up to the eyes, is sufficient, With our splendid water supplies on nearly every Kootenay ranch, there ig no reason why evory poultrymiuj should'not keep a flock. The market price of dressed duck is only a few cents less than that of turkeys, while their greater hardiness, egg yield and early maturity makes them pay vastly better than turkeys, while the feathers' pay for the work of dressing. , At present, however, the demand for good breeding stock Is such that I only killed one duek -this year, and it was wry tailed and unsaleable und had tu return several checks for eggs and stock. British Columbia fanciers are waking up and 1813 promises to be a record-breaker in duek breeding. Apart from financial returns-Jt Is real pleasure to have a good flock. There is more grey matter to the cubic ccntemetre In' the head of a duck than In any domestic fowl. Their deep blue eyes, are almost human -in their Intelligence:1' We drove a largo flock of ducklings Into a shady pen under the poultry house one hot morning last summer at 8:30. We repeated th« operation the next day at tiie same hour. We never had to do it again. Every day within a few minutes of the time they would waddle up the ranch, single file, and go in until after dinner. Try and teach that to a flock of chickens or even old bona. Our next article will deal with artificial incubation and Its problems. ROSSLAND PEOPLE PROVE'GENEROUS Subscribe Over Nineteen Hut.clr.*- Dollars to Funds of Big Annual Winter Carnival.

This Is a three-reel special feature produced by the celebrated Vltagrnph company, with Rose Coghlan us Rosalind, Maurice CoB- tello as Orlando and Robert MeWade ns Touchstone, supported by other star players. No Shakes-peareim drama has a greater popularity or lias created more enthusiasm. The story Is built Upon an old one called "Rosalynd," whieh tells of a knight who, being at the point of death, commended two younger sons to the enre of the eldest, The biter's selfishness set tlie youngest adrift In a wood, where his manliness was called out and that quality regained the wealth and position which lie had lost. Tho settings will startle many who have seen the stage version and the whole production shows the incalculable advantages moving pictures have in the matter of background over legitimate productions. The types, without exception, indicate clearly that some master minds and bands have been at work, and the acting straight through is commendable In a very high degree. The fourth reel of the program is n delight nil comedy. "Wlfay's Investment," Sy tbe Pathe company. m*mmm Are Your Nerves On Edge ?

Holland Most Advanced Country. Tho minister of agriculture had given him great encouragement in'his interview, and had said tha*t the government would get a good man' to manage lhe distribution of'the'fruit If they Had to send to Holland for him. Holland was the most advanced country in the matter of cooperative farming, and a man of great ability was needed to do Lhe work of maVkfefc Ing the fruit !n a manner that 'wmll''. bring success. Mr. JohnMbp'e "sn'lfl that at the prc-i'.u-, tihju the bliUeUriS regarding tlie fruit rngrkots iftire oi no value, as When a balletin waj iasu. ed slating that there way a' demanr) lor a certaip fruit at a'givan ffiWhj every person' who had that fruit woul-5 be apt to ship it to that town a*nii .-swamp it with fruit -vhiic- a tiistei town would ba unable to get' tram tie instanced the fact that last year peaches sold at 20c per case' at Re: ginn, which was ruinous to the grow ' er.

Mr. Jnhnxtone then read the suggestions which he had -laid before the .royal commission and the premier and executive council, He said that the depart- ment of agriculture was Intensely inter-- ested In the question, and aa proof of this lie said that the minister of agriculture had had only to say to him that nothing could be done until the commist slop then sitting should complete Its -le- llberatlons, but Instead of taking that attitude the minister became very en-i thusiasttc about the scheme. The following resolution was ■ - then moved by A. McQueen,-seconded by -Jl Fr-ult Growers' association having read and discussed the suggestions and request made to Premier Sir-Richard McBride and executive council' by James Johnstono at an interview on Jan. 24, op behalf of the Central Farmers' Institute convention, do hereby heartily endorse the same as beinc the quickest and .best means of establishing co-operative' action on a sound'business basis throughout the province, nnd we do hereby urgently request .the government to take Immediate action along tho lines suggested so that the disasters of.the past season mny be avoided."- ' * '. American -Fruit Guaranteed. A. T, Davis -of Mirror Lake, commercial agent for large fruit selling Inter-* ests In the United States, speaking on tlie resolution, said that every- box oj apples should be Inspected before it was shipped .and that failure to. do this waf ono fruitful soprce of loss to the gro.wer- The .concern he worked ■ for guaranteed every box sold, and without this strong guaranty the selling agent would be, severely .handicapped In face of the keen competition that, existed at the present time. Last yoar he had sold m cars of fruit, - aid so rigorous waa the inspection that lie was able to place this amount of fruit, aggregating more ■ than S25O,O0O, with only one adjustment. That was In the case of 200 boxes of Jonathan apples, which were marked extra fancy when fapcy would have beep., jnore cor» rect; the apples, perfect In -pther re-* spects, lacked the perfect coloring- re* auired for ."extra fancy.'!- Mr: Davis said that no central agency, could Jiopt ti.be so perfect In its-organisation.as to ho able to advlBn the shipper of smal) fruits, which were perishable, as the market conditions changed with each day. -. ■- }..',, i* The practice of consigning shipments was the curse of the fruit business. It was ruinous to the grower, and even the jobber, who should profjt If. any .one would, was hurt by the ^practice. By eohslgning Is meant the-practice-adopted by some growers who are at a loss tot » martttt of sending the good* tt some well-known dealer rather than lose fruit, und take his chances on what the dealer would get for htm. This lead-*, to "bearing" the price on the class of goods so -'unsigned and setting up a very unsatisfactory condition of affairs for tlie dealer, who has made his contracts at a stated '.rice, , There Is also the chance that 0110 deal- ei* may not gei oul as well on the com t-lj-nnietit as another, und as a case ln point he told of 1,000 cases of apricots and plums being consigned In that inaii- iit-i- tn a dealer and the same quantity to another dealer, the goods being about the same In both' cases. Ono of the cars produced JB-U0 less than the other, and ln neither case was the matter satisfactory 1 the shipper. The motion carried as being the best move In sight to secure more satisfactory, relations between the consumer and tlie grower. Sweaters, Shawls arid Toques; "Cheapest tn the City."
