Laws'ranch: Seed Oats Situation In those districts where the oat crop was a partial or total failure last season, the farmers are becoming somewhat anxious as to the a vailabie supply of seed oats. There is a general tendency on the part of farmers who have seed oats for sale to withhold them until later in the winter. The movement of seed oats is delayed also, because transportation has been needed for coal, feed and livestock. P.ssibly 400,000 bushels of seed oats may be required in Ontario and Quebee, and a much larger quanti- ty in Southern Alberta and Saskatchewan. The Canadian government seed purchasing commission aireedy has substantial supplies in store in (he intprior terminal eleva tors, and large quantities of good quality, early harvested oats are still to come forward. Alberti and Saskatchewan requirements will be given first consideration from th;1 seed oats produced iu these prov ir ces. The shortage in Ontario and Quebec may quite easily be met from the large and excellent oat crops in Prince Edward Island and eastern Nova Scotia. No, i quality Island Banner seed oats are now being delivered as far west asToronto at a pi-ice comparable with western seed oats of the same grade. The price of No 1 seed oats delivered in bulk carlots at any point in Ontario and Quebec should not exceed the cur rent Fort William cash price for No. 2 Canada western oats by more than 35c per bushel.

Mr. Thompson previous to his purchasing had inspected fruit ranches in the Kootenay district, ihe.Okana- gan district aud the Fraser valley, and returning from the coast to Grand Forks and securing property here speaks volumes for the district in comparison with other places. The sale was made through Robertson & Egg. Mr. Thompson is delighted with the valley and the property. He will reside in Grand Forks.

Three games will be played in each towu for the Boundary cup. In the first period the Grand Forks boys had the best of the play, the score being 2-0. In tne second and third periods the play was more even, the visitors getting 2 goals and the home team 3. The game was free from rough playing, and at times it was very fast. O. H. Niles handled the play in a manner that proved so be satisfactory to both teams. The second game is scheduled to be played iu Greenwood tonight. At b meeting of townspeople, including the mayor, Rev. Hillis Wright, Mrs. Jeff Davis, James H. Ryley, and several ladies���most of the Daughters of the Empire, held in the Davis hall on Saturday January 17, to hear Miss Stewart, of Nelson, a member of the provincial commission for establishing public libraries, it was demonstrated by thespeaker that the libraries already established in the province bad proved of vast benefit to the com. niunities where they are located. Those present at the meeting were unanimous in the opinion that the ejtablishment of such a library here would be i very advantageous thing both for the city of Grand Forks and to the surrounding district. It is expected that a public meeting will soon be called to determine what shall be done in the matter, and most probably tbe city counci' will be asked to pass a bylaw in its favor. The commission has established library centers throughout the province. Nelson has been made such a center, and it is proposed to make Giand Forks a subsidiary point ol that center.

C. OFFICE: COLUMBIA AVENUE AND LAKE STREET. FRIDAY, JANUARY 10, 1020 Mayor Acre's splendid victory in ' yesterday's city election removes, to a great extent, the sting of personal defeat. Mr. Acres' majority was of such a substantial nature that the muck-rakers and the ultra-purity squad who opposed him should be forever silenced. Under Mayor Acres' administration we expect to see our city make steady advancement. j international differences, for prevention of fu- j tiire wars, for sp.iead of civilization, for security of society in all lands; and generally for I gradual progress ..'towards fulfilment of the just 'and generous ideals for A\\hich America came and fought by the side of her sister democracies. That is their belief. They believe also that suqh ratification is in the true and abiding interests., of America/ herself, but if America does not share this belief, they recognize without reserve that the right of decision must be hers. If she thinks that reservations are necessary for her safety and freedom, that they are demanded by the provisions of her constitution or by the traditions of her foreign policy, they will welcome ratification by hm-.on any reasonable terms. We are confident this is the view of the British and French peoples." f~- Taking a philosophic view of the result of the city election, 'we find it an easy task to convince ourselves that we won a victory by losing out. In order to live, we do not need the salary that past councilmen have been in the habit of voting themselves, and that will in alUikelihood be voted this year, as our meal ticket for'the immediate future years is reasonably secure; the honor of the office is not commensurate with the worry and loss of time, and lastly, whenever any of the city's patronage comes our way we can accept it without violating any fundamental laws of the land. To those whe so loyally supported us with their suffrage without solicitation we wish to return our thanks; to those who voted against us through honest convictions we bear no animosity; but for those who opposed lis through selfish motives we^ have no olive branch to offer. Next in order is a union of husbands, with demands for hot biscuits daily, time and a half for walking the baby nights, 50 per cent increase in spending money, and two pairs of decent socks pei-week. While we did not covet the office, we had fully determined to perform the duties that went with it to the best of our ability had we been elected, and had, in fact, in contemplation a plan that would, we believe, have done away with the sectional strife and animosity that has been so detrimental to the growth of our in the past. But our primary object in entering the race was to force a contest, and that object we accomplished. Even with two candidates from our end of the ward, the vote against us was insufficieet to cause wailing and gnashing of teeth. Had our contemporary printed another article against Mr. Acres, he would probably have receivedevery vote in the city and made a clean sweep of it. The increasing need ofrfuel for British industries and the high cost and comparative scarcity of it have led the government to study the sources of oil in British territory. But, although oil has been discovered in the British Isles, the British empire as a whole produces only about one-fortieth of the total output, which is not nearly enough for its purposes. In 1917 India produced a little more than 1,000,000 tons, Trinidad 200,000 tons, Egypt 134,500 tons and Canada 25,100 tons. Burma, Trinidad and Egypt are considered as promising oil fields, but there is not much prospect of ^finding' oil either in Australia or in South Africa, and-the Canadian supply is practically an unknown quantity owing to lack of development. ��������� The average citizen is rapidly ������������������realizing'that a general increasb of wages is not a reliable panacea for all the ills that may threaten a social system. What has become of that aldermanic candidate who wouldn't sit in the city council with Mayor Acres? The allied nations o\\' Europe have ratified Now that sugar presents a more acute problem than either wheat or meat, it is important to know what are the prospects for the future. The most careful estimate of the coming crop in all the world makes a total of *l-6,600,000 tons, which is only 280,000 tons more than the last crop, The sugar-cane crop is axpected to be twelve and a quarter million tons, that of beet sugar four and a third million. Just before the war the production of the world was much the same as now, but then cane sugar only slightly exceeded beet sugar in amount. In 1913 cane sugar was a little more& 11 & P. A. Z. PARE, Proprietor Yam-: Hotki,, Fiiiht Stukkt W ^ llfR- BUSINESS c^MAN, have you ever thought that advertising putf you in good company? It is an old saying that a man is known by the company he keeps. When you join the ranks of the advertisers you join the ranks of the biggest and most successful merchants and manufacturers in the world. How many large concerns can you name in any large city in the country? Name them and you will notice that all are big advertisers and all are leaders in their lines. Ask your friends td^ name the most successful merchants they know in the big cities, and in each case the name ot a great advertiser will be mentioned. The same rule is true of smaller citiej- and towns. The successful merchants are the advertisers. The advertiser stamps himself as one having confidence in himself and his wares, as one proud of his calling and seeking publicity and the test of patronage. K������0 n fj?

If a business man had a first class customer who owed him $1000, on which he had 500 per cent secuiity, and customer came to .him with a cheque and told him he wished to square his account. Suppose the business man, before he received the cheque, noticed that it was short of the full amount owing to him, and drew the customer's attention to this fact. Suppose, further, that the customer, on his atteution being drawn to the matter, admitted his mistake and stated that he would go back home and make out a cheque for the full amount and send it to him. Under these circumstances, would the average business man have taken his customer's word, or would he have snatched the cheque out of his hands and told him to go back home and make out a cheque for the balance due him?
