It is now up to the hog raisers of Canada to say whether or-not they shall receive great profits from their hogs. The American market for Canadian hogs is improving daily, which means thai any of the Canadian packers will buy at a still', price provided they can get hogs that arc-well fed and in first-class condition for the market. The. heavy rain last Friday evening preve'hled many from attending the Patriotic Fund dance given in thc Drill Hall, and the affair was not a success from the point of raising funds, but olherwi.se it was most enjoyable. The hall was very prettily decorated by Mr. Wilson, and the music furnished by the Enderby orchestra was of the usual excellent quality. The first poultry show to be held al Kamloops will open in that city on November 25th and will continue the 26th and 27lh. The-cooping is to be Spratt's coops, and all other appurtenances arc to be of the latest style. The prize list includes a large number of cups ancl other valuable specials. The judge, Mr. Stonehouse, is said to be one of the most proficient in the Province. E. McC. Moltlcy is the secretary, lo whom poultrymen should write for further information. A letter was recently received from Mr. C. Rutherford, dated at Antwerp, Belgium, October 9th, stating that Mr. Rutherford was in the beseiged city with his troop at Returning to England, after a visit to the front in Belgian and France, F. A. McKcnzie says in the Vancouver. Province: "I find that the public and press, generally, regard the general situation much more gravely than a 'week ago. A widespread campaign is in progress again for compulsory service, and pessimistic reports are being circulated concerning the backwardness of recruiting, which has recently slackened, due principally to three reasons, (1) bad management of recruits;. (2) uncertainly about pay ancl pensions allowances if disabled or for widows;,(3) the systematic official policy of preventing the circulation of news from the fighting front is not calculated to stimulate patriotic enthusiasm. The treatment of recruits to Kitchener's army ancl the Territorials, has been at many points, bad, although it is now improving. -*��������������������������� Men have been kept without uniforriis, proper, underclothing and have been badly fed and housed. This has been; due to the folly of the. authorities who. persisted in attempting to run .the entire machinery for the new. army, of- a "million*' riien with' an official "organization adequate.-only, .for .one quarter'of that number. The question of. pay -.-undoubtedly, retards many workingmen, ," and - public opinion would - support, the -goyern- .merij ;in .".very y liberal- treatment/of. widows"and- wives'; .-"After lorig-de- layi ' some details . of the govern- ment'sproposals are now1 emerging, but they come very .far. short" of what ; labor asks. The ' childless widow-will receive seven shillings six pence a .week,ypossibIy supplemented by charity, and there will be an additional allowance for thc first child of five shillings a'week, for the next three children of two shillings and six pence-a .week each, and on further children of-two shillings a week each. The Workers' War Emergency Committee has formulated demands that soldiers rendered incapable of earning a living should receive a minimum pension of a pound a minimum pension of a pound a week, that widows and dependents should have pensions not less than the total-separation allowance and that the-entire system of allowances to soldiers and their-families^should���������������������������bc-divorccd- from charity. "Concerning the third cause," says Mr. McKcnzie, and in so saying he voices the sentiments of the general reading public everywhere, "il must be enough to say that thc official treatment of the press and thc handling of the news services has been pur'ile, damping lo home enthusiasm and damaging to thc na- IT IS APPALLING - Little if any news has been allowed to leak out from ihe Belgian- French line for tlie past two days. Yprcs is now the storm centre, after a ten-day battle of big guns, which was beyond doubt the most ferocious and bloodiest pisode in thc war. The Germans are endeavoring to repair their shattered strength by bringing up every available man and gun for another--bout .of slaughter. When the history of the past ten clays comes to be written in detail, if ever* the truth, is told, it 'will be recognized, as. the most awful conflict in which'humanity has ever been" tried. "Heroism shines through tit here and there," says one writer wiring from Northern-France under date November 10. "The resistance and" ncrve strength-of the,British troops have "beeir almost superhuman, and the French have fought4with a gallantry''beyond all^ praise/ ~ But .on both sides it has- been; simply a. slaughter in -which all human qualities. havet been annihilated, .oil.at, least stupefied, by" the -^destructive power of "the- artillery.' -"' -"'' '-'���������������������������-.-���������������������������7 "We just wait for .death," said a Belgian officer, "ancl "wonder- if it does not- reach'.us-out; of. all- this storm of. shells, ylt is -war. without .soul or adventureH;It?is4h'e-:gun.lhat does all the,-business, heaving out shells and delivering ��������������������������� death' in ���������������������������- a merciless way. It is gun.against gun, with :men as targets, as helpless as. the "leaves'torn from the autumn trees around by a- storm of hail. , Our men, arc falling like leaves, and,the ground is heaped with them, find there is no decisive victory on.either side. One week of death is followed by another week of death.1' Our. position changes a little, but that is all; and the business goes on again. It is appalling." of a further desperate German attack upon the Yprcs ancl LaBassee line, there is a feeling of the greatest confidence among, the British soldiers. ' t The Germans around Brussels are working feverishly at fortifications. They have steam entrenching machines on the field of Waterloo, and enough of cement has been brought into the country to solidify into a crust all of Belgium east of Brussels. Behind their ferroconcrete lines of defence the Germans will attempt to recuperate .their spent strength. i, Good Hope and Monmouth - - For several clays after the report from Valparaiso telling of the naval- engagement between the German and British cruisers off the coast of Coronel, "the, British Admiralty, re-* fused to'believe.the.German account of the engagement. But the admiralty' has, since .officially announced that, the engagcrneiit took\ place as- reported, and that the Rear-Admiral Cradock's flagship,- the, Good Hope, foundered at-sea with, all 'on"board;-, arid thc "Monmouth;;-not-having been: since heard'from,' is also/befieved'to have' been; lost. 7 The��������������������������� German; re?| port stated that the Monmouth Was. sunk in ,action,'and the.

They have enough artillery to blast away a mountain, and when the guns of both sides come into action it will be the devil's own music. Even at a distance of ten kilometres the detonations are almost deafening. No army has had such a severe test as the British. In this district some regiments were eleven days in the trenches without a rest. There never has been a really quiet day for the men. Despite the imminence London, Nov. 10.���������������������������The Admiralty announces that the Australian cruiser Sydney has driven .ashore and j burned, south of .Java, thc'German- cruiser Einden, which- has destroyed more than twenty British and Allied vessels since-.the war began. The Sydney n had superior guns and speed, and-forced the Em- den to fight, though the latter tried to gel away. There was a running fight, ancl lhe Emclen was set afire and forced to run aground on Coco Island. _ Another Reported Peace Offer ���������������������������London, Nov. 11.���������������������������A Rome despatch to thc Post says: "Germany, -alarincd=at-the^Rus.sian=succcss,-has= made preliminary offers of Peace to the Russian Government, which have been rejected."

GARDEN COMPETITION PRIZES thc the the 1st Place Order for Shoes in Canada An order for 300,000 pairs of soldiers' shoes has been given to lhc Quebec Boot and Shoe Manufacturers' Association by the French Government through Hon. L. P. Pelletier, representative of lhc province of Quebec in England. This will leave $1,000,000 with thc Canadian shoe industry. The executive of thc Enderby Agricultural and Horticultural Society met in the City Hall last Saturday evening for thc purpose of recciv ing thc report of the judges in garden competition, in which Society offered three prizes at commencement of Ihe season: $25; 2nd, $15; 3rd, $10. Twelve gardens were inspected each month by the judges, Mrs. A. McPherson and Mr. F. \V. Collin, thc names of those entering being, Mrs. Nichol, Mrs. M. Greyell, J. B. Carlson, Mr. Dagg, Ed. Sparrow, F. S. Hartry, Mr. Bealtie, Mr. Thorn, H. McKce, L. Proclorand R. E. T. Forster. Many of these gardens showed great care and attention, and excellence of lay-out, and thc judges had lo exercise thc closest care in making the awards: This fact can be gathered from tlie report which is as follows: "Enderby, Oct. 17th, .1914. "To the Directors of thc Enderby Horticultural Society: Wc inspected monthly, wilh great pleasure, the gardens of the competitors of the garden competition, during thc. summer months. All gardens gave evidence of care, some of them being particularly well cultivated and nicely arranged. Each month we found thc grounds lawn mowed and all edges nicely clipped. The shrubs were always we.ll cared for, and the borders and (lower-beds gay with bloom of splendid quality. The vegetable garden showed the same great care. "The grounds of Mr. Dagg were also a pleasure to visit month by month. There, loo, we found the lawn always neatly clipped, the flower-beds 'free from weeds and filled with beautiful blooming plants. We noted wilh pleasure the excellency of the aster,bloom found there. His large vegetable garden was always well cultivated and in a healthy growing condition. "Next in merit are the grounds of Mrs. H. Greyell. During the months of July, August and September we found their beautiful lawn in splendid condition, wilh a profusion of rich bloom surrounding il on all sides. The roses on Iheir lawn are certainly worthy of note. The vegetable garden contained many good specimen of large size. "The gardens of the other competitors are certainly a credit to the city. Enderby has every reason to bc'proud of her. gardens, not only those of the competitors in the garden competition, bul thc many others not entered, and worthy of special note. "Notwithstanding lhe extremely hot, dry weather of thc past sum- rebate so insignificant that business men do not consider it worth while to pay their taxes until the end of the year, thus causing much difficulty in financing the affairs ofthc small cities. A letter from Messrs. Billings & Cochrane was received enclosing an enquiry from the secretary of the "Waler Commission asking to be informed of Ihe-amounl of waler required by the cily for domestic and power purposes. As no measurement has yet been made by the city of the amount of waler now used, il was decided that lhis information could 110L I)e given at this time.

NOVEMBER 12, 1914 PATRIOTIC FUND LOW Members of lhe Formers' Institute of the En- clerby-Mara district came forward promptly wilh their subscriptions to thc Canadian Patriotic Fund, with lhc result .lhal lhc'Farmers' Inslilulc fund has reached Ihe sum of $145. No doubt lhis amounl will he further increased before lhc date for closing the list, Nov. 30lh. This fund will be forwarded lo Victoria, we understand, and there added lo thc collections sent in by other'Institutes and by lhe Central institute, lurncd over to the general Canadian Patriotic Fund. Thc duly organized Enderby branch oi' the Canadian Patriotic Fund, organized by request, has nol met wilh lhc response from our business people and others lhal was expected, and il is becoming necessary lhal attention should be drawn to lhe need of a more spirited response to lhc demand from headquarters. While it is apparent lhal Enderbv will have ils hands full taking care of lhe local requirements for assistance this winter, still, il must be recognized lhal lhe Canadian Palriolic Fund cannot he ignored if Enderby is lo .I't-tlajn_Jlie..i">osition .il. has heretofore., held.".. Thc. objects and purposes of lhc Fund, and lull particulars as lo lhe Enderby organization are published on another page of lhc Press. Those who cannot afford lo give much can surely give a little lo swell lhe Enderby fund to proportions compatible wilh Enderby's position as an incorporated municipality. CANADA'S FUTURE _ In view of the general break down of European civilization, and lhe awful consequences lhat must follow when lhe setlling-up lime comes, it behooves every man lo look squarely in lhe face fads as Ihey are and lo so prepare*for the ultimate lhal we may be able lo exert lhe influence necessary to bring about permanent peace and lhe restoration of life lo normal conditions. Just now, when lhe Molherland is in lhe embrace of a life and death struggle. Canada must take her place in lhe ranks of Britain's allies. And Canada i.s doing so nobly. But there is a lime coming, at Ihe close of hostilities, when Canada must be prepared lo do more than she is doing today. In an article published last July in lhe Continent magazine. London. J. A. Macdonald writes of Canada's ���������������������������future in a way lhal shows that dunking men in England have visions of Canada's greatness lhat are nol seen by most Canadians themselves. It should he most profitable for us all if avc can share wilh Mr. Macdonald lhe high ideal he holds of lhe Dominion, and so shape our national life as lo be able lo lake the position pictured by him. 'Worth America's world, leadership!" says he. ''Thai i.s lhe vision which comes lo Camida and Ihe Uniled Stales today. Thai i.s lhe rallying cry of these Iwo Kntdi.sli-spcakin.L,' nations. Thai i.s Ihe challenge which marks lhe opportunity and the ohligalion of our North American civilization. Thai i.s lhc appeal���������������������������half appeal and more than half command���������������������������which would widen lhe horizons of cilizenship in hoth countries, would make each lhe complement of the other, and would justify through sacrifice and service America's high promise to lhc world. Most of all, it is this, call lo world leadership that will redeem public opinion ancl public life in the United Slates and in Canada from narrow partisanship, .from racial prejudices, ancl from the bane of century-old national antipathies which should have no place in North America's newborn world democracy. "In North America's world leadership the Uniled Stales has a pre-eminent place, not because of its almost boundless resources, ancl not because of the mere numbers of its population. This is lhc distinction of this republic, that in their struggle for independence thc thirteen colonies which at first made up the United Stales learned this-lesson for themselves and taught il lo all other nations. This lesson democracy must learn today as.surely as monarchy had to learn it in the past ���������������������������lhal any colony lhat desires to be J'rce, and is Iit to be free, must he given freedom's unfettered chance; any people who desire self-government and are fit for self-government must he granted the rights and thc responsibilities of self-government. ���������������������������'That world-lesson the American colonics of thc eighteenth century learned for themselves and taught lo the "Molhcr Country of Britain, and lo all nations for all time, il was a cosily lesson. It cost strife and bil- lerness and division. But the price had to be paid. The American colonies took thai way, and history has justified their choice. "Canada also has a share in Norlh America's world leadership. During the past half-century on the north half of this continent there has been growing up into virile young nationhood another free democracy dividing wilh Ihe Uniled 'Slates the wealth ancl sharing the obligations of Norlh American cilizenship. The right of a free-people to the governance of, their own affairs, won by thc American colonies in the eighteenth century, was inherited without war or sacrifice by the people of Canada in the nineteenth century. The act of Confederation passed by the British Parliament in 1807 unified the provinces of Canada inlo. one Dominion. "The dreamers among the Canadian people knew tlie old way of separation was open to them, opened by the war of American independence a century before; open to Ihem without revolt or revolution. But they chose a new way, an unlravellecl way, a way to nationhood ancl lo national self-government by which no people ever went before. ;. "That thing done in Canada's history was without precedent. It was a new experiment in world politics. It meant a larger unity. It made for a new empire. Canada's experiment led the way; Australia followed, and New Zealand, and only a decade ago South Africa, by tho wilh the ancient colony of Newfoundland, making up a new British Empire���������������������������an Empire which has sloughed off the old centralized imperium; an Empire which i.s ralher an alliance of free nations girdling the globe with one flag; an Empire, which, in its larger democratic freedom, is glowingly loyal ,lo one throne. In lhal great experiment of democratic self-government under a constitutional monarch, Canada led the way. Local self-government in the.over-seas dominions of Britain will yel react on thc Mother Country, and will issue in free local governments for England, for Scotland, ancl some (lav soon for distressful Ireland herself. "In Norlh America Canada rises into nationhood to share wilh the United States thc obligations of American civilization. Each has ils own problems; but Ihey have other problems in common���������������������������problems in social life, in economic life, in political life, in national life, the solving of which will require the combined wisdom and energy of bolh nations. "There .are problems, loo, involving olher nationalities, with'which bolh the United Stales and,Canada shall have lo do. As joint heritors,in.America of a common civilization, wilh ils common laws and literature and institutions of Government, Ihey cannot evade responsibility for the freedom, integrity and peace of the Lalin republics on lhis western hemisphere. Nol the Monroe doctrine alone, bul the inescapable obligations of Christian-citizenship involve these lo free nations in high concern for the unity and consolidation of Mexico and of-all the lurbulenl republics of Central and South America. The supreme national interests of Ihe Uniled Slates and of Canada will be served only when freedom of life and stability of government come lo each of lhc other countries, sharing wilh them tlie privileges ancl duties of the western hemisphere. "Canada counts for more than one. ' In lhe Norlh American situation Canada stands for more than Canada alone. Because of Canada's imperial relations, the power of North America today is the power of thc United Stales and the power ofthc Dominion of Canada, plus the power of the world Empire of Britain. Canada is lhe hostage of thc British Empire in Amcr- tcnT^l Ms^t lvcf~b"o ircl^mi'cl^pl c d ge^'o-f-^Yn gl o=An i c r i ca ir unity, liecause of Canada's unique position as the half-way house of the British Empire and the half- continent neighbor of the Uniled Slates, 'the fortunes of Ihe English-speaking nations thc world over are bound ii]) together in one bundle of life. "For a hundred years Ihe United Stales and Canada have joined in presenting to the world an example of civilized internationalism in Norlh America which is without precedent or parallel in any age or on any continent. Across lhis continent from ocean lo ocean there is .stretched for four thousand miles of river and lake and open plain and mountain gorge, an international boundary line, unbarbarized by fortress or hallleship, or unmenaced by any thought or fear, of war. Thai inlernalional fact is unmatched anywhere in all lhe world. II i.s America's greatest message lo Ihe nations. Il allirms lhe doctrine of lhc world's new democracy: That a nation's real security is nol in the might of lhe power of brute force, but in the character of ils people, in lhe unily of their national life, and in lhc worlh of their national purpose. Canada, wilh only S,(''),()00 of people, and wilh neither standing army nor even Ihe beginning of a navy, and next door lo the United Slates, wilh ils !)l),000,00(), holds half a continent in a peace the militarized nations of Europe never knew. The defenses oT American internationalism are not in steel plate and^long-rangc guns, bul in Ihe civilized feelings and ideals and standards of America's democracy. "In the great days to come, Canada's truest services lo Ihe defences of Norlh America and lo thc stability of English-speaking civilization will be, not by the old inslrumenls of brute force, either on land or on sea, bul by promoting social justice, by establishing political freedom, and by making Canada's impact on the nations wholesome, helpful and true. Schools, universities and churches; a \'ree press, not'blindcd by local prejudice and nol warped by sinister influence; fair play in industry and trade; a just division of life's burdens and a just distribution of life's rewards; the strengthening of all the agencies of peace and goodwill lhal help lo change Ihe world from a jungle to a neighborhood; and the framing of inlernalional policy in lhe terms, nol of envy and fear, bul of love and service and a sound mind���������������������������il is by these things Canada would indicate ils place among ihe nations and play a part in justifying America's promise lo Ihe world. And by these things lhe Uniled Stales and Canada may achieve and may justify before all nations Norlh America's world leadership."

HENDRICKSON, Proprietor Everything new and up-to-date. Next the Fulton Block, Enderby ��������������������������� Generally speaking, the "news" sent from the front by thc correspondents in Northern France and Belgium is of little value when it reaches this pari of the world. It is usually received two weeks after the engagement reported has taken place, and is so fragmentary that it is impossible to tell anything about the movements of the troops or what this or that success or reverse may mean. The Scientific American publishes each week a letter from its military correspondent telling the strategic moves of thc war, and from these one gains a resonahly accurate idea of the real meaning of the various movements, and an unbiased account of the progress made. Speaking of the campaign in Belgium and France, and particularly of the fighting that has been in progress for the past three weeks in the vicinity fo Dixmude and Arras, this military writer says: "The French line held firm at Arras and the British-Belgian force held back the Germans on the east at the Yser River. "When reinforcements enabled the British to check the German columns near St. Omer the latter found themselves threatened on three'sides and had to beat a' hasty retreat. In following up this move the British recaptured Es- ,taires and Armentieres and forced the , Germans back to Lille. This 30-mile advance and retreat had left the lines with little, change in their relative-positions., The great German campaign for the capture of Dunkirk had"failed, though, and the Allies had shown their fighting ability under adverse circumstances. The result could, not but be of considerable ' encouragement to them, especialy so since the forces in this field were reserves" and Volunteers whose "conduct under "fire was until then untested. '_', "The Allies arei'still fighting, not so much to win,, as to keep from getting badly-beaten in these first days of the war. Their full strength cannot be developed' before 7ncxt spring, so they are well satisfied with an even break at present. So much have the" Prussian successes, against Austria in I860 and against France in 1870, impressed the military men of all countries that the whole strategy of the Allies has been directed to avoiding a knockout blow in the first rounds. If they can force the combat to settle down to a question of endurance, there can be but one outcome. In the' beginning Germany's well- trained and well-equipped men can outfight largely superior numbers of their opponents. But _before their salient position under conditions that would ordinarily dictate a retreat. The presence of the heavy siege guns close to their front have prevented successful frontal attacks by the French, who have, accordingly, attempted to force German retirement by pushing forward a strong army to threaten their rear. This French army advanced from Toul and Nancy and has now reached a position running eastward from the outskirts of St. Mihicl, through Apremont and Thiaucourt to Pagny on the Moselle, twelve miles south of Metz. Ai the same time thc French have pushed forward to the north of St. Mihiel until they have cut down to seven miles the strip by which the advanced German forces maintain connections with their main body. The position at St. Mihiel is apparently being held al great cost on account of its importance for some future move of the Germans. The latter are making desperate efforts to hold on, while the French are equally determined to make them loosen their grip on the Meuse fortifications." Speaking of the campaign in the East this writer says: "The advantage in the present fighting lies with the Russians, due partly to their strategic move against the German flank, and partly to the action of the elements in tying up the German transport service. The Whole campaign is by no means decided yet, and the Germans and Austrians still retain the greater part of the, advantages gained by them during the early part of October. The Germans still hold nearly half of Poland, whileythe Russians can claim a gain, in that they have-checked one-stage _bf the-German plan of using their, centralrpo^ sition to deliver, powerful blows in turn to the east and to.the west." Heroically Holding On ,. Paris, Nov. 9.���������������������������A general battle has been proceeding- along the whole front from the sea to the Vosges Mountain's Tor the' past three days, without the Germans having been able to find "a weak spot in the Allied defences. It is still in Flanders that the interest centres. The Germans are concentrating ,therc all the men they can get, and ceaselessly are hurling them against the Allies' lines. Never has this method been directed with as much tenacity and furry as now. Attacks on the line from Yprcs to the Lys are more violent than even those directed against the coast road, and the passage of the Yser. , It is the British who. bear the August_ comes again the_All_ies will, brunt of these onslaughts.

ENDERBY EGG CIRCLE Manager Bigge, of thc Enderby Egg Circle, reports that newly organized body is preparing for an active season. Thc egg business at this time is slow, not because'of any lack of demand, but for a shortage in supply. All the preliminary work is now finished, so when the hens are ready business will swing off at a lively pace. The following rules and regulations have been adopted by the Circle: 1. Each member should bear in mind that the aim of the Association is not only to get belter prices, but to raise the standard of poultry produce and make thc Association brand an absolute assurance of quality; to accomplish this the following rules must be carefully adhered lo: ��������������������������� 2. The poultry house shall be kept in a clean and sanitary condition. 3. Fresh nesting material, shall be regularly supplied. 4. Only clean, wholesome, untainted food shall be fed to the fowls. 5. All broody hens, and hens accustomed to roost on or in the nests must be excluded. G. All eggs shall be collected twice daily. 7. All eggs shall be removed directly from the nests to a dry, cool room where the temperature does not exceed (iO deg. Fahr., and where there are no apparent odors of any kind. 8. Shut up or otherwise dispose of all male birds except from Jan. 1st to June 15th. 9. None but china eggs should be used as nest eggs. 10. The members shall deliver eggs from their own hens only. ' . 11. All eggs shall De candled before being-placed in the Association cartons. ", , . , 12. Any member found guilty of violating any of the foregoing shall, on the first offense, be .fined not less than one dollar, and in case of a second offence t. , ' be expelled from the privileges arising from the co operative work of the Association.. . _ . 13. That 5 per cent be deducted monthly from each* account for working expenses. , ' - 14. Each member to pay-an entrance fee of one dollar, with further levy up to two dollars if necessary; this to cover the initial expenses of the Enderby Egg Circle���������������������������printing, purchase of egg crates, etc. 15.

When the Japanese found it would be a long naval fight to take Tsing Tau ihey did not hesitate to land forces on "Chinese territory. Of course it was generally acknowlr edged that, this violated Chinese neutrality, but the Chinese Government was .not strong. enough Ao malte forcible objection, ahd7th6 Japanese arid--British'officers -very politely accepted the protests' bf China and went right on to" finish the job,they were set out upon.) German Forces Dislodged " Petrograd,', Nov. 9.���������������������������Art. official statement from Russian army headquarters says: "On the East Prussian front our troops have dislodged the German forces in the region of Wirballcn, which was strongly fortified, and have progressed as far as ,Stalluponen,. 1G miles northeast of.Gumbiennen. "On the left bank of the Vistula river our cavalry has penetrated German territory, damaging a railway station to thc northwest of Kalishe. On the road to Cracow, V .-" -���������������������������,';��������������������������� -.' Vro' 5*������������������J accessories add so largely to the fighting power of troops. The' first German attempt was made by rushing troops northwest from Lille toward Calais in an effort to cut in behind the forces of the Allies on their extreme northern Hank. The rebound of this move carried the Germans back and resulted in a ten-mile advance by the Allies to Roulers, east of Yprcs. "The German efforts are now be- in directed along a different line. By driving against the Belgians close to the coast they hope to break through to a position where they can threaten thc rear of the Allies farther south. The crossing of the Yscr is the first step in this move. Much hard fighting will be necessary, however, before the attack can be carried, further. The attacks at La Basse, Lens, and Arras are parts of the same campaign, being, apparently, demonstrations to divert attention from the region selected for the main blow. In the rest of the battle-line, from Arras to Verdun, the attacks and counterattacks have nowhere changed the positions as much as five miles. The advantage in the small modifications of positions seems to lie slightly with the French. "There has been some very stubborn fighting, however, east of St. Mihiel, which i.s on the Meuse river, half way between Verdun and Toul. Here the Germans have maintained stinacy worthy the traditions of Waterloo are they able to hold their ground. British losses in officers have been terrible. One battallion of. Foot Guards went into action commanded by non-commissioned officers. Certain cavalry regiments have lost half their strength. Have Orders to Break Through ���������������������������An official bulle- Gcrman offensive Paris, Nov. 9.- tin says: "Thc has been renewed in the region of Dixmude and Yprcs. All German- attacks southwest of Ypres have been repulsed. German generals have orders to.break through at any cost, before the end of thc month." Tsing Tau Forts Finally Surrender Tokyo, Nov. 8.���������������������������The following official statement was issued this afternoon: "German and Japanese plenipotentiaries, on the evening of November 7th, concluded immediate pour parlors concerning thc conditions of surrender of Tsing Tau. Our terms were accepted in their entirety. Another meeting will be held tomorrow, ancl at 10 o'clock on November 10th thc forts, etc., will he turned over to us." (The taking of Tsing Tau by the Japanese deprives Germany of her naval base in Chinese waters.

THE ENDERBY PRESS AND WALKER'S WEEKLY Thursday, November 12, 1914 BRANDING OF DAIRY BUTTER The Dairy Industry Act, 1914, i.s largely a.revision of Part VIII of the Inspection and Sale Act, which Part it repeals. Thc iinderlying principle of the law is protection to the consumer, the honest manufacturer and the honest trader. The whole object, of the law is to prevent misrepresentation. No reasonable practice is interfered wilh.' A new sub-section in thc Act deals wilh the weight of butter as put up in prints or blocks. This subsection reads as follows: "No person shall sell, offer, or have in his possession for sale, any butler moulded or cut inlo prints, blocks, squares or pals, unless such prints, blocks, .squares or pals arc of full net weight of one-quarter pound, one-half pound, one pound or two pounds at the lime Ihey arc moulded or cut. Nothing in lhis para-- graph shall be held lo apply to butter in rolls or lumps of indiscriminate weight as sold bv farmers." Thc regulations made under the authority of lhe Acl came inlo force on September 1st, and provided that when dairy butter is put up in blocks, squares or prints and wrapped in parchment paper the paper shall be printed or branded with the words "Dairy Butler,'" in tellers at least one-quarter inch square, in addition to any other wording that the bultermaker may desire to use. There is nothing in thc Act or regulations to prevent lhc use of thc word "Separator" in addition to the words "Dairy Butler," bul no such grade of butter as "Separator" is recognized by the law. The Butter Acl of 1903 de- War prices still continue at the Enderby Music Store Violins 'from $3.50 up Sheet Music from 5c up Music Folios, 1-3 off reg price Low prices will continue on all kinds of Crockery, Glassware and Fancy China. Christmas Goods are begin- .ning.'.to.arriy.e There...will. fined only two grades, namely, "Dairy" and "Creamery-" The Dairy Industry Act of 1914 defines a third grade as "Whey" butler. Buttermakers may use any form of printing or branding, including the words "Dairy Butter," which is not inconsistent with thcidefinition-of dairy butler. Butter in rolls, crocks or tubs is not required lo be branded. Thc definition of dairy butler is found in seclion 3 of the Act and is the same as il was in the Butler Acl of 1903. II reads as follows: (d) "dairy" means a place where the milk or cream of less than fifty cows is manufactured inlo butler; (c) "dairy butter" means butler which is manufactured in a dairy. The exact wording of thc sections of thc regulations that deal with this mailer of lhc branding of dairy butter reads as follows: "No person shall cul or pack dairy butler into blocks, squares or prints and wrap such blocks or prints in parchment paper unless lhe said parchment paper is printed or branded wilh the words "dairy butter." "No person shall knowingly sell, offer, expose or have in his possession for sale: (c) any dairy butter packed in boxes similar lo those used for the packing of creamery butter unless such packages arc branded "Dairy butter; (f) Any dairy butter packed, moulded or cut inlo blocks, squares or prints and wrapped in parchment paper unless such parchment paper is branded "Dairy butter." The full text of "Thc Dairy Industry Act, 1914," and the regulations made thereunder are published as Bulletin No. 42, Dairy and Cold Storage Series, which may be obtained upon application to the undersigned or to the Publication Branch, Department of Agriculture, Ottawa. , J. A. RUDDICK, Dairy and Cold Storage Com. "MADE-IN-CANADA" RIFLES That the Imperial Government is more than satisfied as to lhe merits of the Boss rifle lhat was served out lo the first Canadian contingent is amply proved by the fact lhat the War Office, has given a contract to the fa cto ry to s u p p 1 y a h u n d re d thousand rifles, complete delivery of which must be guaranteed within the space of a year. Thc execution of so large a-contract will call for considerable additions lo the Ross rifle plant and for the'employment of a much larger staff than is the case at present. Already there arc eight hundred men employed there and this number will be gradually increased so lhal it.is expected it will have attained thc figure of 1,500 shortly after Ncav Year's Day. The giving of this important con- tract by so careful and conservative a body as thc British War Oflice to thc Ross factory provides a most effective reply lo those critics who, for partisan or other reasons, have seen fit to waste Iheir energy in atr tempting to decry this "Madc-in- Canada" product. * I The Big U/or nn DHppo ������������������ $ Cash Store VVdl till n MlitY Cash store :j: Armstrong, B.

Walker Press To the.Editor The Enderby Press: Dear Sir: I am instructed by thc Executive Committee of Enderby Branch, Canadian Patriotic Fund. 1914, to write you on their behalf expressing their gratitude for tne kind and generous assistance given by so many of thc people of Enderby and district in connection wilh thc entertainment held at the Drill Kali oh Friday last in aid of the National Fund for the wives, children and other dependent relatives of soldiers at thc front. The Committee regret very much lhat owing lo the inclemency of the weather the attendance was not large, and that the benefit to thc Fund consequently fell far short of what had. been anticipated. The Committee earnestly trust that all who intend contributing to the Fund will hand in their donations wilh as little delay as possible, as an enquiry has already been received from headquarters as lo the amount raised here, and it would be a matter for much regret if Enderby should fail lo do its share with the ���������������������������olh er^to-wn s.=o 114 hc=V.al 1 ey_J n^sup^ porting so necessary and patriotic a cause.
