By the amendments the larger incomes are ���������-.hit harder than under the conditions of the 1918 tax is now being collected. ' ��������� The 1919 tax rate will be 4 per cent, upon all incomes exceeding $1,000, but not e xceeding $0,000 in the case of unmarried persons and widows or widowers without depon-' dent children and persons who are not supporting dependent brothers or sisters under the age of eighteen, or a dependent parent or parents, or grandparents; and exceeding $2,000 but not exceeding $G,000 in the case of all other persons. Eight per .cent will be charged upon all incomes exceeding $6,000. In addition to these charges there is a surtax running from 1 per cent upon the amount by which the in- 'come exceeds $3,00 and does not exceed $6,000 up to 65 per cent, upon come exceeds $3,000 and does not exceeds $1,000,000. Tho surtax covers every income between the excess of $5,000 and up to $1,000,000. Tho tax on incomes of more than $50,000 for instance is 24 per cent. Corporations and joint stock companies, no matter how created or organized, will be taxed 10 per cent.-- during 1919 upon incomes exceeding $2,000. Any corporation or joint stock company, the fiscal year of which is nota calander year, shall make a return and have the tax payable by it computed upon its income for its .fiscal year ending within the \"calendar year i'or which the return is being made. In 1917 tho exemption for this class was $3,000 and the taxation rate 4 per cent.; in 1918 the cxmept- ion was the same and the rale 6 per cent. This year the exemption is lowered and, the rate increased to two and a half times what it was 1917. sonable price but this.sugar could not reach Prairie before Sept. 10 at earliest.\" mM This equals 266 cars. The- stampede has brought in crowds of visitors and they have all but cleaned up the remaining supplies of sugar on hand. Calgary managed to secure two cars yesterday and. one .today of granulated sugar; 4 more should arrive beforo end of this week. Edmonton has -got six cars in nine days, so the hand to mouth supply makes preserving sugar a grab proposition. This market' is- receiving car lots of Crawford peaches from. Washington and the whole Prairie market is in similar position. We have run an ad in Calgary about preserving B. C. crab apples and will follow it up with ads. in other Prairie City dailies. Next week wheii, B. C. has this market more to herself we will point out how to preserve without sugar and show that sugar will be cheaper before the unsu'gared preserves are needed for use. When plums, prunes and peaches are over the prices of pears and apples will likely take a jump upwards Prices are being kept unsteady as the result of so many consignment s. Car arrivals this week consisted of 10 cars mixed from B.C.; 6 cars mixed from Washington; 3 cars vegetables from B. C; 2 cars peaches from Washington; 3 cars grapes from California; 1 car crabapples from B. C: 1 car cantaloupes and watermelons from Washington. in THE WEEK IN CALGARY (Markets Bulletin) This week has been one of contradictory rumors about sugar.'supply. Grocers have wisely restricted their customers to limited quantities. Mr. Winslow who has been in Ottawa for two weeks has managed to secure a generous share of what sugar was in sight. We liave the following wire from him today: \"We secured shipment into Prairies eight million pounds of sugar ���������from East and Vancouver in nine days ending, Friday.

A I'OCNO BV\"!.AW boll COWS At the Board of Tr.vlc meeting on Thursday .evening a resolution was passed with a view i:o establishing a pound by-law, lor Abbotsford. Thore is much need for a pound bylaw in small towns, to' keep tlio cows, horses and other animals from running at large during tho long- hours of the night, sometimes with bells on thorn too. A cow will not when in the village walk on tho middle of the road but takes the sidewalk for it usually,'and people coming along hours afterwards generally know she has been there���������:lhe weak places in the walk are not built for anything as heavy as a cow or a. horso and break. This should not be, and if owners cannot house their animals at night there should be a* place for them. This cannot be provided for for nothing and a minimum charge should not worry the owner half as much- as having the cow or horse in Mr. Jones or Mr. Smith's front garden over night. The'garden flowers do not make good milk anyway, according to the scientists, and that is partly the reason there is so much sour milk in summer���������the cow has been feasting on roses, dahlias, pansies or some other Sweet William. It is understood that the majority of the property holders of Abbotsford are in favor of a pound bylaw, and of course the minority will always in Abbotsford give in to the popular- opinion. Sevtral residents this morning thought the Boad of Trade .had taken a wise'step in asking for a pound bylaw, \"and said they would support it. ,jluges All appointed At a meeting ot the agricultural .society on Thursday evening the arrangements for the fall fair were a- bout all completed. One of the important matters was the appointment, of judges, who have all been appointed and without mentioning any names the Post is informed that all are strangers in 'Abbotsford, but competent in their particular lino. Mr. S. Bedlow, poor fellow has no home. A short time ago he had two houses but now he has .none. It was this way, houses are scarce in Ah-, botsford and ho gold the one he was living in and then J. A. thought - it was better to buy than pay rent. It. is hoped that Mr. Bedlow will build a couple of houses now as Abbotsford is sorely in need of houses to give a home to those intending to live here. Mr. A. Lee is making an extensive addition'to his store, which will be used for a warehouse. Mr. E. A. Hunt has bought tho house he has been living iii from Mrs. Bousfield. Mr. S. Trethewey recently bought the Harrop place on the Yale road and again sold it to Mr. John Meredith who is an employee at the A. T. & T. C. Abbotsford has some of the finest sidewalks in tho Fraser Valley but some \"ot them arc sadly-in need of repair. THE DOMINION FRUIT GROWFKS (Markets Bulletin) What has become of the old time assembling of the Dominion Fr.nt Growers and Shippers at Otta\\a? Wo. have slight recollections tns.t during the war these gatherings we>e abandoned and the care of the fruit interests delegated to an executive cTiiittee with Mr. Hodgatts, Uoi'i- cult; dsL, Ontario, as secretary. t seems as if it was about tim-3 that tho Dominion Growers took the management of their own destiny in their own hands again. We know of soma live problems that need solving but do not know how to approach this executive committee. Canadian fruit interests cannot be managed by com- j mittees from year to year indefinitely. Something should be done towards reviving meetings. The fruit interests of Canada' are now of sufficient Importance to have annual Dominion meetings. !

HARTLEY, Abbotsford, B. C. '��������� Representing' Board Companies Only THE ABBOTSFORD POST Published every Friday 'j. A. BATES, Editor The small farm in British Columbia offers to many a man freedom ot spirit and surcease trom woiryTh s province is to Canada what Ca ifo - nia is-to the United States and the Fraser Valley is the most lavoreJ portion of the province. Nature las been lavish in the dispensation of her counties, and it would be ^cuR to find any other section of the globe where a comfortable living may be niade with so little effort. The climate is equable���������the winters mi d and iee summers delightful-and the soil is of unprecendented tertihty. Sufficient, rain falls during the cropping season, usually, to insure bountiful v elds or all farm produce.The recent summer has shown that the Prasei Vallev lands have suffered less iron the drouth 'than many other pai ts of the coast that could lie named. prevent the Board of Commerce appointing its own prosecutors.\" The Globe's first guess about the effectiveness of the new board is a correct one. Partisan newspapers are trying hard to find some flaw in the measure. One thinks the commissioners will do good work if they are not \"interfered with\", another says it won't be surprising if a cabal is instituted to quiet the investigators in the interests of the \"big interests\". The commissioners can be dismissed from office only by parliamen and it is proposed that their salaries shall be fixed by parliament at its next session. The possibility of \"interference\" by any people desiring to prevent the'board from carrying out the work for which ' it has ' been created is, therefore, very remote. As Judge Robson said, it is a \"court, of the people\" and the people will see that it continues to have the free hand it has been given.���������Ottawa Journal. NO \"PASSING THE IJUC.K\" While admittin^that \"Iho Canadian people are. now assured that the new Board of Commerce will ay a firm hand on 'profiteers and trust., and will prevent extortion by the exercise of powers conferred upon it at tho last session of parliament, the Toronto Globe says: \"It is apparent that the Federal Government 11 as moved very cautiously, and has , shown a reluctance to place on any j federal body the responsibility of. , actually punishing any combinos,er , or profiteer.\" , The Globe refers to the lac tuau under the act when, in the opinion of the board, an offence lias oecn committed, the board \"may\" remit to the attorney-general- of any province within which such offence has been committed, for such action as attorney-general \"may ' ue pleased to institute, certied records of the copy of the case. In iou ot such remission the board may declare the offender guilty aud liable to fine or imprisonment. Here again enforcement of penalties is left to the provinces. The Globe thinks it will require a vigorous assertion of public opinion to make some provincial attorney-generals to son their duty.even wl'ou the evidence on which to base a prosecution is put. into their hands by a federal board clothed with m- duisitional powers. But it is hardly fair to say that the Dominion Government has moved | \"very cautiously\". The Dominion Government had no power under the constitution other than to. leave to provincial officers the punishment nt ol'lonees under the Criminal Code��������� to which offences under the law are added. The only alternative was Ic make the effonco a civil one which would have been ineffective. When, however, the Dominion Government apnointed as members of the board such men as Judge llobson and \\.. J'. O'Connor, it gavo the public adequate assurance that \"passing the busk\" would not be permitted. These commissioners may be relied upon to give sufficient \"pitiless publicity\" to I'm!'.' attempt of provincial officers to ol Struct the process-or law. When an attorney-general is presented by a 1 . -.-i of such standing as the Do- miuicn Court of Commerce with an iiuiicuneiit to which is attached ovi- d'tioe :-:������.r-fully prepared and verified !,,-��������� wil I ten brave man who will defy i!. The public would soon show him and Iris government where they fitted. Kurt her, if provincial prosecutors are dilatory there is nothing to AFTI3R GOOD ROADS TOO Nobody could help noticing the large number of American automobiles in Vancouver druing the past few days, says the Vancouver ��������� Sun. The visitors from across the line must have numbered several thousand. This sort of influx has been going on for several months. They are all welcome not only for their own sake but also because they necessarily re- cinire accommodation and make purchases here, and therefore leave money behind them in considerable quantities. j I low numerous would have been our visitors if tho road from Vancouver to the border had been in decent 1 condition? It is now being repaired but the work might just as well have bee:i done last spring. In that event the automobiles of Oregon and Washington and California would have beoa as thick on our streets as the grains of sand en our sea shore, with corresponding accretions to the bank accounts of our merchants. Without meaning to be hyper-critical, shouldn't somebody offer an explanation as to why the road has ���������been left in bad shape all summer? if the work had been done three months ago, tho extra profits would have paid for the repairs. A branch of the G.W.V.A. has been formed at Kaslo and officers have been elected. The association has twenty-live members now and expects another twenty-five very soon. One of the most exciting races oi the season was pulled' oft on the shores of Harrison Lake the other day when a trapper and hunter, Jack' Thompson got a handicap on a bear, and won the race to the boat by a neck. He had ashore after tlio cubs when the mother appeared on the scene and Jack decided il, was time to depart as he was unarmed. S G Blaylock is now general manager of the Trail Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company. He has been with the company for ,a- bout twenty-five years. Golden citizens banquctted 100 Great War Veterans a few days ago. Summerland is to havean exhibition of its products at the Vancouver fair. \"Pure bred\" tomato seed grown in Summerland brought IH' an ounce Okanagan's crop this year will be 2( per more than last year, and *������00 cars will be used to move the crop.

Nelson has 793. ��������� , One man at Lillooet has a field 01 800 acres planted in potatoes.' The pulp plant at .Ocean Falls cost over $12,000,000..
