I IS OFT IN STATES WHEAT AT LEAST EQUAL TO E EXECUTIVE OF THE CANADIAN COUNCJ^Bf AGRICULTURE SENDS STATEMENT TO WHEAT BOAft ^ELABORATING ON THE RESOLUTION SENT ON AUGUST Wto THE GOVERNMENT AT OTTAWA; DECLARES FARMERS ARE CLAIMING ADVANCE ABOVE THE $1.75 INITIAL PAYMENT OFFERED; THE POINT IS EMPHASIZED THAT THE GOVERNMENT CANNOT LOSE ANYTHING OWING TO THE CONDITION OF THE WORLD MARKET; THE LETTER GOES ON TO SAY THAT THE PRODUCERS DO NOT FEEL THAT THEY SHOULD BE MADE TO STAND A LOSS IN ORDER THAT THE CONSUMER MAY HAVE CHEAPER BREAD; THEY WOULD HAVE THE WHOLE NATION STAND THE LOSS WINNIPEG, Aug. II. Declaring that lt Is imperative, ia the interests alike of the consuming public and the producer, to make the amount of the advance on the Canadian wheat crop of 1919 at least cental to the minimum price now being paid iu the United States the executive of the council of agriculture has sent a statement to tbe Canadian wheat hoard elaborating tbe resolution forwarded by tbe council to tbe Dominion government August 1. The farmers of the west, it is pointed ont, in claiming such an advance are doing so lu the shadow of financial calamity. Tliey must, it is asserted, receive ^t if they aro even to meet the heavy expense involved iu the cost of production during- tbe current season. The point Is emphasized that tho government would be running no risk of losing money while actual conditions bearing upon the supply of wheat, it is said, justify no other action.

Agriculture meeting today, desire to state that any such price would be entirely unsatisfactory to tho organized farmers of the west, and further would strongly urge upon tho government that, owing to the material shrinkage in tbe prospective wheat crop of the North American cont incut iu the past few weeks, there can be no justification for establishing a minimum price below that now existing In tbe l'nited States.' "Communications which have been received from central offices of the provincial grain growers' ossocla. tions as well as from many individual sources within tbo three provinces since August 1 are unanimous in their support of the cluim set forth in tbe above resolution. Fear Financial Calamity 'The economic justification of th demand that no less a minimum ad-1 quitable. If iu the interests of the consuming public, and federal government desires your buard to limit and control the price of flour and consequently the price of bread, there Is only one fair course 10 take. If such a limited price of Hour should mean a lower value for flour than for the farmers, and consequently, a momentary difference which your board would be obliged to place before tho minister of finance at Ottawa- tbe deficit or national account. If any should develop, ought, In all fairness, to be borne by the whole people of Canada. In other words, it is not Just or economical to ask the tvheat growers of Canada, especially in this year of their blight, to take a lower price for their grain than that which wo are asking for, in order that th« price of Hour and the price of bread may be reduced. That simply would he clear discrimination .against tho basic industry of the country. It would also be contrary to the course pursued under similar circumstances both In the Iniied States and the United Kingdom. In the Cubed States tho farmer will receive the price which was guaranteed to him last year, and if it is necessary to control tbe prico of flotu-, any loss incurred to the nation will lie borne by the special national fund created for such purposes. Britain Paid Difference "In Hie Cniled Kingdom, for tha pasL three years, the British government has paid out of its national exchequer the difference between tho nine penny loaf and (he actual cost of the wheat entering into it. If it Is necessary iu the Interest of the consuming public 0* Canada to place tho price of Hour below ils actual va]U'* in terms of the price of wheat of tint world markets, we submit lhat tho only fair remedial stops that can .be taken will to make up the difference out of th.' national revenue of the country. Additional weight is given to this claim by the fact that for two years, while this country in common with tho other allied nations at war, was hearing the mental and physical burdens of that period ibe Canadian growers of wheat received a fixed price for their product which, as all grain traders know, was far below the price it would have realized In the open markets of the world. "FurtheVmpre, wa would reiterate the concluding statement of our resolution that the government would he running no risk nf loss in setting th" minimum price on the wheat crop 111 the amount referred to. Actual conditions bearing on the Bttpplj of wheat [justify no other action.

DODD'S > KIDNEY /, PILLS iVi*iEsT[s nC,.i'f!i„ ^ggTHEPpT Introductory Remarks This district includes the follow- ng mlnttlff divisions: Golden, Windermere, J-'oi-t Steele, Revelstoke, lardeau, Ainsworth, Sloenn, Slocan City, Trout Lake, Nelson, Arrow Lake, and Trail Creek, generally referred to as the East and West Kootenays. This is tho oldest lode-mln Ing district In Hritish Columbia; in it there are a.s many mines heing operated as in till tho other districts put together,* Although some are only producing In a very small way. With tho exception of a very small percentage, responsible Cor the entire load nnd zinc production of Canada. In HUS it produced 70 per cent of tho silver output of the province, about :t;i per cent of the total gold output, and 2S per cent, of the coal, The first metalliferous mine to bo, staked in the district was the Mine Bell, on the shore nf Kootenay lake. It was located in 18G.r> and is being operated at tho present time. The Rossland mines, which arc now being operated hy the Consolidated Alining and Smelting company, were located in 1890. Tbo Slocan Star, which was staked by Bruce White in 1801, is being operated hy the Silversmith Alines, limited. Tho Sullivan mine, in tbo East Kootenay, which is being mined by the Consolidated Mining and Smelting company, ,and promises tn belt} ono of the famous mines un the American continent, is at more recent dat There are many other properties Which were staked years ago lhat nro still heing operated, although some of them havo been forced to close down from tlmo to tlmo on account of market conditions; but the fact remains that tho total production for British Columbia of silver, lead and islnc alone totals over 03,000,000 up to the end of 1017, nd conditions look promising not only for the present production being maintained, but being increased during subsequent years. Generally speaking) tho product of all the above named metals compares favorably with that of last year, iu spite of the industry being severely handicapped by lack of efficient labor and the high prlco ot machinery and supplies. The gold production ot recent years has been principally trom the Jloss- lund camp, but it will not do to overlook the placer deposits of thu Kootenays, from which largo quantities of nold have been recovered In the past, and which undoubtedly still have possibilities. Tlie discovery of placer gold nn Wjldliorso creek, near Kort Steele, first attracted mining inon to thu Kootenays In the early sixties. Since this time mining has been carried 1 to a limited extent. Shortly aftor the Wlldhorse creelc rush new discoveries were reported up in the "Big Bond" of the Colum* Ida river, some fifty miles nortli of Hcvcistnke, where gold was found in the gravels of Carnes, Downey, Mc- Uulloeh, Gold, French and Smith crocks. There was great excitement .ver these diggings for a time, and, ilthough quite a llttlo gold was recovered, it was only from shallow llggings. Gold was known to exist on the bed rock, and a good deal of money was spent in endeavoring to reach it. but boulders and much water prevented economical mining. Tho excitement, subsided nnd the crowd left the district, leaving behind only a few men. whom* tenacity nnd dogged perseverance have kept soma if them there, even up to the present! time. Other planers which were worked some year's ngo, und are again attracting attention, uro located on Perry creek, which is a tributary of St. .Mary river, in Port Steelo section. Old seepages have been found iu the Flathead section, and according lo Ralph Arnold's report, which is published in the annual report of tho minister of mines for 1U15, the possibilities of finding oil in commercial tjuanttles are favorable. transportation facilities aro throughout the district by me Canadian I'acifio Hallway company, ami the mining centres can bo comfortably reached hy boat or train, while to the majority of good .—, „ , .<g, Which it Is possible to travel on horsehai The Smelting which is mining Consolidated Mining and v compniiy's smelter at Trail, conveniently situated to ilu; cntres, accepts sllvor-tead, copper and gold ores for treatment, Nature has not only endowed this section of liriiish Columbia with great mineral wealth, but nlso with, fine timber, rivers, and streams, thai LhCre are lew places indeed where fuel and water power are not available for mining purposes; »\vhll siihe grandeur nf ibe scenery ami tho excellent climatic conditions tond tn make mining a more pleasant oe- upation than in the dry ar'd regions and semi-tropicai climates ol' tin nth. or. in ihe Intenso cold of the r north.

FRIDAY, ANOUST 15, 1919 THE BOARD OF COMMERCE STARTS WORK FOR PUBLIC The Canadian board of commerce hns been constituted anil hns started work. It will bo able to prove and punish some cases of extortlonnte profits, or what Is commonly called profiteering. It will also learn from its inquiries that in some cases in which profiteering is generally believed to exist tho prices charged nre only suf flclent to yield a fair net profit to the vendor. The evidence which will bo given before the board In tho various cases will be read with u great deal of In terest. Existence of tho board will enable any member of tho publle or nny pub lie onHinlzation to ask for an inquiry into .Tense in which it Is believed unjust profits aro being exacted and, having shown that thero is ground for nn inquiry, to present 'evidence in support of the charge. If tho chargo proves to be justified the machinery is available fur punishment of profiteers and for remedying the price situation. If the churgc is unfounded. then the individual, corporation, busi ness or class of business on trial will have an opportunity to display the real facts to the public. Everyone is willing that a fair net profit should be made, even if price increases are Targe, but everyone naturally objects to extortion of any sort. The boiird of commerce will provide the medium for finding out whether prices nro fair or not. idoa until the national park is established.' Save for tho next Dominion loan.

COMMUNICATION. Fl un OF AC MOST PEOPLE WILL AGREE WITH LABOR MINISTER Internntlonal unions like organizations of employers or organisations of the general nubile aro composed of human beings and as such are subject to error, but the majority of people will concur in the tribute Which was paid to them fit Calgary Wednesday by Hon. Gideon Robertson, minister ot labor. They have done great work for their members and Indirectly for the public nt large. Bolshevism. In Its various forms, set out to destroy the international unions, ns It realized lhat It could not hope to get the support of the sound labor organisations of the country for its j>lan!' of cla«s warfare ideslgned to overthrow democratic government and law and order and establish what It Is pleased lo call a. "Proletarian Dictator ship." Bolshevism failed. Tlie chlet effect of the operations of the Bolshevists In this country bus been to emphasise lo the public the true merits nnd value of the solid, well conducted trade union and to emphasize equally strongly the danger of giving countenance in uny way lo the Bolshevists, the l.W.W.'a, tho Ono Big Unlonltes, Iho Syndicalists and others of thu Red tribe. THE MOUNTAINEERS DON'T AIM TOO HIGH The Mountaineering olub, while prevented by circumstances from arranging more thnn one trip a year, Is accomplishing splendid work. As a result of Its efforts the scenic beauties, the mineral, forest and agricultural resources ot tho district und the opportunities which exist for the development of tourist travel ore already far more gonerully appreciated than was the case a few years ago. The Mountaineering club naturally alms high. lt thinks In terms ot huge nntlonal parks, which will rival the national parks of the United .Suites both in scenic interest and In the number of pooplo they will attract. But thot is not aiming at all too high, Kootenary Boundary possesses all that Is necessary to develop national parks which can not only equal, but outrival, the famous tourist resorts of tho United States. Nor Is it Impossible to mako them equally popular. That can be accomplished by a combination of adequate preparations for the comfort, convenience and rcorentlon of visitors and Judicious advertising of these advantages once we can offer them. The Important thing at the moment is to keep pounding at the SMELTER SMOKE To tho Editor ot The Dally News Sir—May I be allowed space In your valunblo paper to answer the lnser tion ot last week In Trail News re the proposed up-to-date experimental farm to bo operated by tho Consoll dated Mining & Smolter compnny. I believe, sir, it would bo much moro to the purpose if the company wero to use tho money they would thUB spend in bringing their smelter plant "up-to-date" by consuming their smoke and extracting the valuable chemicals with which they nre now poisoning the air for miles around Trail, lnjuious alike to man, beast and vegetation. They do not seem to realize that hy this they arc also wasting a vnlunble asset which ought to be conserved for the benefit of tbe country. Now sir. regarding the contention of us farmers as to the destructive effects of what is known ns S. O. 2 or sulphur-dioxide, anyone traveling between Trail and Rossland since early in June t year would be able to see for himself, If he cared to use his eyes, something of the blighting effects of those fumes. Even a blind man would be able to discern that something was wrong If hc happened to be in the neighborhood when the smoke was around. Thero can be no question Mr. Editor, of the agricultural possibilities of this section under nntural conditions. We claim that they are about as good as nnywfiero ln'*Brltlsh Columbia, If this menace should be removed. As for tho justice of our claims re damage done, wo have already proved them In tho courts, and only ask for the privilege of doing so again. This action tho Consolidated company are trying to prevent by getting a vicious pleco of legislation railroaded through the houso during tho last days of the late session. By so doing they practically admit damage done, and prove their expectation of further damage in tho future. Else why all this trouble? Now sir, as to Mr. Blaylock's claim that poor Investments have oeen mndo by ranchers, this mny be trpe In a few cases, but is not true in the majority of cases. Some of ub have properties we would not be willing to sell ot any price, wore It not for the dllllerlous effects of smelter smoke- fumeB; and I for ono nee have no fear of dry weather ns f have an abundant water supply and immensely rich alluvial soil. But lt has been proved that we dare not use water when smelter smoke Is In the atmosphere as moisture on the follago draws to a larger extent the acid from the fumes. Regarding Mr. Blaylock's contention that were It not for the smelting Industry agricultural pursuits would bo lessened In this district, I am convinced they would be greatly increased. What about the splendid rural communities and towns whero no smelter exists'.' Wo have an abundant pralrlo market whero we could command a bcttbr price for our products than wo often receive In Trail, wero It not for the lowering of the carrying qualities of our fruits and tho uncertainty of getting the proper returns for our lubor. In conclusion let me say that if the Btneltor company would only deal with their fumes as other s oilers have done, then It would be possible for all sections of the community to dwell together in terms ot mutual friendship. It Is because we know that this mutter can be satisfactorily dealt with nnd be a source of actual revenue to the company that we arc Insisting on this being done. Thanking you for this favor, W. H. SLEEMAN. Annable, B. C, Aug. 14., 1919. FILIPINO PROVERBS MANILA—It lias bcon said thnt peoples may be known by their prov- orbs. An Interesting collection of Filipino proverbs has lately been published by Deon Jorge Bocobo, of the Unlvorslty of thn Philippines. lie says that the old men among the Filipinos know hundreds of such prov- orbe and legends, many of them absorbed from tlio West and other:; giving an Insight Into the psychology of the race. Here are threo or'four from his collection: "A fish Is caught by the mouth" (Caution); "Brenk your head, but not your word" (Honor); "If you sleep, brother, tho crocodile will eat you up" (Industry): "TIs easy to be born, 'tis hard to be a man" (Character); "A liar loves to lake an oath" (Truthfulness); "Do not be too near your superiors, lest they trample on your dignity" (Pride). Ymir Road and Ferry Again Discussed By Board of Trade—Other Portions of Provinoe in Greater Need of Roads Lack of action on the part of the provincial government both In tho matter of the proposed Ylnlr rond and the extended hours of service for the Nelson ferry again aroused the Ire of the members of the Nelson Board of Trade ut the regular monthly meeting last night. A communication from Dr. J. II. King, minister of public works, sinted that tho matter of the Ymlr road bad been again beforo tbo executive of tbe government and it was decided not to proceed with the work at this tlmo aH It was the opinion of the government that there were other portions of the province that were In greater need of roadB. Fred A. Starkey pointed out that the minister a year ago had promised the road. He had also promised to support the proposed bond issue which it wns intended to float locally with the backing of tho provincial government and the understanding was given that at least some work would be done on the rond this year. All these promises were now broken and lt waH his opinion that the government were ploying fa|st and loose with the people of this district. "When he states that there are more Important roads to be built than the Ymir road ho does know what he talking about." concluded Mr. Starkey. J. R. Hunter, president of the board, corroborated Mr. Sturkey's statements. "Some expenditure waB promised, uh and I don't think there ure districts in British. Columbia that need roads more than this, There is a greater payroll In this district for the mileage of road required than nny in British Columbia. Ab a result of the discussion a special committee was appointed to take up the matter and correspond with the minister of public works. The members of the committee are J. R. Hunter, Fred A. Starkey and E. F, Qlgot. Concerning the proposed extension of the ferry sen-ice a loiter from the resident engineer for the provincial government explained that lt had not heen put into effect because there was no provision In the estimates for a new ferryman. He explained that gasolene would be provided nnd Ihe ferry operated If a man could be ob talned who would run it for the money he would recelvo from tolls charging 50 tccnts for a single trip for vehicles und 15 cents for pedestrians. It was also pointed out that if an additional ferryman were appointed to tho Nelson ferry other ferries In tho province would also be asking a double shift service. Endorse Eight Hour Day The discussion brought out the fuct lhat tho present ferryman was working approximately 12 hours a day and giving an excellent service und the board went on record, on motion of W. H. Jones, that owing to the prevailing 8 hour day rule throughout the province two men should be employed on the ferry nnd it should be operated two full eight hour .shifts per day. An effort will be made to have the C^-eat Northern Railway company reopen Its telegraph offlco In Nelson In order that direct telegraph communication may bo established between Nelson and points south. The secretary was instructed to tako the mntter up with the proper authorities. A lcttor from the postofflce depart- ment at Ottawa pointed oul that the revenue required tor putting a post- office on a city basis was 150,000 per annum but It was stated by members of the board that the effort was bolng made not to put it on a city basis but to have It pluced on u civil service basis In a similar manner to Nunaimo and Prince Rupert During tho dls- cuBSloti it was brought out that the local postofflce revenue for the year ending March 31, 1918, amounted to $35,35ti as compared with $25,874 for Nunaimo and {22,817 for Prince Rupert* For the year ending March 31, 1919, tho revenue of the local post- office was J32.243.17. In view of whut was thought to be a misunderstanding on tlie part of the postofflce depart ment at Ottawu It was decided to take tho matter up further. Would Divide Auto Tax A resolution from the N'anaitno Automobile association calling upon lhe provincial government to hand over it) por cont of the revenue derived from automobile taxes and licenses to the municipalities was endorsed by tho board. Mayor J. A. McDonald, O. F. Stevenson und Fred A. Slarkey were appointed u committee to endeavor to arrange a citizen's excursion to Creston on September 27, the occasion of the foil fair in that town in response to un Invitation accorded by the Creston board of trade.

By a man whose lifetimeJias been spent in the study of surgical dressings/ This is a master's method —correct, complete and efficient. And the millions of people who know it, never think of enduring a corn. The first step is to stop the pain. This is done by removing all pressure — by the soft protecting ring marked A. The next step is to gently cause the corn to disappear. This is done by the remarkable B&B Wax, which no corn can resist. This bit of wax —marked B —is centered on the corn. It cannot spread. So, unlike old-time methods, it acts on the corn alone. C is rubber-coated adhesive. This snugly wrsps the. .One application, protecting everything. You apply this Blue-jay in a jiffy.

Aug. II. — Agricultural development is the basis of all Industry, was the theory propounded hy It. C. Mnsldns. vice-president of tbe International Harvester company. Chicago, in his address before the industrial congress ibis afternoon. No industrial congress can afford lo Ignore tho oldest and most vital of human pursuits, suld Mr. Ilaskins. Tin immediate prosperity of Alberta lies not in its industrial development, but in its agricultural development Mr Ilaskins bore upon this point einpha lically, lull took occasion nlso to ex press the belief (hat in time Alberta, as Its natural .resources became du velopad, would have its industries, and no doubt would lie the equal of any province or state In industrial de velopment. Kven iu the l'nited States witli it; meat Industrial development, says Mr. Ilaskins, agriculture remains •■the chief pursuit, in Uio capital Invested In agriculture In the States was $11,000, OnO.fiOO or {."..OOO.OilO.OOO- more than the capital Invested in its industries and railways. At tbat time 33 per cent, of those In gainful pursuits were en* gagetl in agriculture. The comparison ill the increase of value of agricultural products and manufacturing products hud been even more striking If the agricultural development in Alberta Is left to the individual, says Mr. Ilaskins, it will be slow und uncertain. Associations such as this must be behind the development of agriculture. H was within the powers of like associations to make this development sure and rapid. Mr. Ilaskins then turned to tbe problem of settling Hu- returned soldiers on lhe land, lie said Canada had made much more progress in Ibis regard than the United Stales, and urged those interested not to forget that it was not enough to dump a soldier down on the land with tools. He must be taught farming und farming methods carefully and thoroughly. Mr. Ilaskins closed his address wilh a irlbute of admiration for the wonderful part Cannda hiul played in the «•' ''• f-Hift GASOLINE EXPLOSION KILLS TWO AND WRECKS PLANT KITCHENER, "int., Aug.

'There's Nothing as Good as Tanlac," Says Portland Man—Gains Twenty-Five Pounds "In all my long experience I have never found anything as good as Tanlac when it comes to relieving suffering," said J. A. Neisz, a well known employee of the Pacific Car and Foundry Co., and who lives at 14 East GCtli street, North Pot Hand, Ore., the other day. "My troubles began about three yours ago," continued Mr. Nelsz, "and I have been having a lough time of It ever since—that is, until 1 commenced taking Tanlac. 1 had rheumatism in my arms and back, and I suffered almost constantly during all that time. Of courso there were times when this trouble was worse than at others, but I can truthfully say that there was hardly ever a time wben 1 wns not conscious of pain to some extent. My arms wero so stiff and sore at limes that 1 couldn't raise my hands to my head. Besides what I spent for treatment and medicine, tho time I lost from my work on account ot this rheumatism amounted to over four hundred dollars in salary. I couldn't sleep much, and just gradually went down hill until I had lost in weight from one hundred and thirty-five to one hundred and ten pounds, and was so weak and rim ilown that 1 could hardly get about it all. "A friend of mint' who had been suffering from this same kind of ■trouble, told mo tbat Tanlflu wits lh' only thing that had ever done him any good, and advised mu to give It a trial. Wall, to make a long story short, I have just finished my sixth bottle of Tanlac, and 1 am as tree from suffering In every way, and am as well and strong as 1 ever was in my life. I weigh one hundred and thirty-five pounds now. which means that 1 have gotten back all 1 lost In weight. 1 have regained all my trength and can do as much work ,h 1 could fifteen years ago. All that soreness and stiffness has gone from my arms and I can raise my hands abovo my head without the, least trouble. Yes, sir, Tanlac has been a godsend to me, and 1 never lose nn opportunity to recommend It to others. I am buying another bottle to take home with me today, for 1 never expect to be without It."
