At 10 o'clock the veteran* :nd school children, headed by the City band, marched to the cenotaph, •.here the usual program, consisting of national and patriotic songs and i.'nort addresses, was carried out. Mayor Henniger was the orator of I lie dny. He said: I stern ns of the Groat War, School Chllddren, Ladies and Gentlemen: Once again you are gathered here lo dedicate and pay your tribute to Close heroes who made the supreme sacrifice. An occasion of this kind Is not ony held to hon-is and revere the dead, but to be a lasting lesson to the living. l.VIost of you here knew those heroes who gave up their lives, whose nauie^i are inscribed en this cenotaph. And whei you look at this cenotaph and see others throughout this land of I ours, you And eld sorrows gripping i your heart even after a lapse of over i thirteen years. And the old question i arises in your mind, "Why was it! necessary that tiiese loved ones had to | make the great sacrifice?" | •We would not care tr be part of a' a nation whose men would not fight; and defend their country In its time of peril. m j Tlrese men saw democracy chal-1 lenged nnd defended It with their lives ! In the greateBt struggle known ln hu-1 man history. And as the torch fell j from their falling hands,lt was taken | up, and right and justice prevailed | throughout the civilized world. Speaking to a Canadian audience, I am pleased to state that Canada pays more for the welfare and care of her returned men than any other nation which took part in the Great War. And rightly so. This great country of ours, with its great resources, should richly repay for services sorichly given—and we must not break faith with those who sleep In Flanders fields. 1 will say to the teachers and sctm pupils that war Is not necessary. Abhor the glories of war and devote your energies and talents to supporting such Institutions as the League of Nations and others of a like nature, which are doing their utmost to make war impossible In the future years. IWar is hell. Think of the millions of lives lost and billions of wealth squan dered. The war has cost Canada over four billion dollars, and at its close the loss of lives was close to 60,0q0 men. In 1932 the amount to be paid In pensions and relief will be $45,000,000. and for every dollar raised by taxation 42 cents of lt goes for war cost, and our children and children's children will not live to see the end of the cost. But as long as gratitude lasts Canada will pay. 1 will close with the words of thc poet: O God. let men war preparation cease, Come peace on earth, on a"l the world come peace. Is Superannuated I R.

He adds that British Colnmvia exporters should study the posslbili- tie; of this market, as alreaiiy prices are better than the home market, and the apple trade for Christmas should be good. Private treaty prices have bean running from 11.0 to 14 for Mcintosh and from 12.6 to 15s for Jonathans. October car shipments from Vernon In Canada Important Industry When leading economists and bankers declare that Canadian gold mines are playing a vital part In the maintenance abroad i f national credit; that at home they ure aiding materially In the return to prosperity; there are excellent grounds for Canadians to view the future with oiitlmlsm. Never lu tlio history of the Industry have the ^old mines been more capable o." mouldering so heavy a responsibility. Canadian mines are now producing over a million dollars of gold weekly, the highest rate achieved since the inception of gold minig on a commercial scale in Canada 7:1 years ago and increases beyond this point are assured by expans'on programs under way. Those sufficiently close to the picture will not be surprised to see Sir John Aird's prediction of $100,- 000,000 a year realized well within the ten-year period conservatively, allowed. Jn its growth to one of the great mining countries cf the world, Canada is fulfilling early promise. A com- .paniou of Champlain discovered sil reached a total of 1559, of which 1360 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ were straight cars anrs and 199 mixed ] ver, copper and Iron In Nova Scotia The destinations were: British Colum bia, 197; Alberta, 338; Saskatchewan 359;. Manitoba, 231; eastern Canada, 165, and export 278. Of the total 560 were bulk apples. Shipments for three months reached a grand total of 3271 cars; straight cars, 1910; mixed cars, V65; bulk, 767. Winter apples are gain lng in volume to eastern Canada and 1'or export. Bulk apple shinpments are now falling ox. James Low of Oyama won tjie agent general's cup for the best apple exhibit at the Imperial Fruit Show recently held in Manchester, England. Pralr e jobbers are well stocked with bulk and boxed apples. Bulk is mov ng out in volume and boxed apples mostly to storage. From Information received It would appear that British Columbia apples are be ng used for th» .fancy trade throughout Canada, especially in Quebec, Montreal and Toronto. No cars have been reported from Washington for this trade. Fair prices with a tendency to advance are reported. Barrel apples have aga n advanced \ from 25c to 60c a barrel. Tjhere has been a slight advance in apple prices on the prairies, with pears and tomatoes scarce. Brit sh Columbia hothouse tomatoes ure holding their own against California Held grown. All prices on produce are firm. Ten cases of tomatoes grown ln the Kamloops dlstrct were recently shipped to Hong Kong sold promptly at market prices. The quality was 30 satisfactory that repeat orders have already been placed. The shipment was sent by the markets branch as a test sample. as far back as 1604. The Indians had previously found copper and Jesuit fathers found and mined gold. But the first commercial mining of gold of which there are records was ushered in with the discovery in 1858 of the famous Fraser river placer deposits in British Columbia. From that time forward the gold mining industry met with varying fortunes, production during the period from 1858 to 1912 seeing many ebbs and flows consequent upon the development of discoveries in British Col- | umbia and the Yukon. Gold has now been discovered in every province of the Dominion with the one exception of Prince Edward Island. At time3 annual gold production fell below a million dollars, at other times the tide flowed strong. When Yukon was at its peak the total reached $28,000,000. of which Yukon accounted for $22,000,000 This record stood for 20 years, until, in fact, seven years ago. With the discovery of Porcupine in 1909 and Klrkland lake two years later a new and more brilliant era was commenced. Three years after Benny Hollinger, Sandy Mclntyre and Jack Wilson staked the Hollinger, Mclntyre and Dome mines, Ontario gave the the first signs of coining greatness in u gold mining sense. The year of the great Porcupine rush Ontario's contribution to the Dominion's gold output was but $22,000. By 1912 this had multiplied to $1,788,- 000 and within five years to over $10,- 000,000. Ontario surpassed both British Columbia and the Yukon in 1914 for the first time. Since then Ontario's leadership has never been seriously threatened. TJhis year, of the $55,000 000 estimated as Largest Passenger Engine in British Empire BRITISH COLUMBIA HONEY WINS Of nine prizes for honey at the Im I perlal Fruit Show In Manchester, Eng- land, receently British Columbia cap- tured alx. The successful exhibitors were H. C. Derrick of Cariboo; W. H.' Turnbull, Nicola and South Okanagan1 and G. P. Plerey of Kelowna. The quality of the honey from this province waa pronounced excellent, and there are indication* of a good de-1 mand for It as soon aa we are On a po j •Won te export I' When the largest passenger locomotive ln the British Empire emerged from Angus Shops under her own steam, close to eight thousand employees, most of whom had contributed something to her creation, stopped to cheer as, her throttle gently opened for the first time, she moved slowly forward. She is a triumph of Canadian design and engineering craftsmanship; a graceful mechanism nearly one hundred feet long; with a tractive effort of 60,800 pounds, equal to 3,685 horse power. The new K-l-A" Class, locomotive bas been built from designs originated ln the motive power department ot the Canadian Pacific Railway in the company's own •mops by its own employees. Two of these engines have .been constructed and they will first be •Derated on the Montreal-Toronto Although IU weight, 424,000 pounds, Is greater than that of any other passenger engine in Canada, tbe extensive use of Canadian nlckle steel parts has reduced lt to a minimum, and the high ratio of tractive power to weight is a notable feature of the new engine. Other features are a one-iplece cast steel locomotive bed; a tender with a water bottom underframe; Iboller pressure of 275 pounds, the highest of any locomotive In Canada; and a length of engine and tender of 97 feet 5 Inches. There are eight pairs of wheels, a four-wheel leading truck, eight drivers, and a four-wheel trailing truck. The wheels havo a diameter of 75 Inches and the cast nickel steel cylinders are 25V6 inches by 30 Inches. The coal capacity ls 18% tons, and water capacity 12,000 gallons. A mechao'oal stoker c.-osidorably llghtcnu ths duties of the fireman. Tihe new design aimed at largely increased power, reduction of ■weight and elimination of parts. The result has shown that Canadian technical skill and workmanship Is equal to tlio task of putting a fully equipped engine of the best typo under its own powor, and that the Canadian Pacific iVngus shops, Uio second largest on the continent, aro capable ot vicing successfully with recognia- ed engine building plants ao]b trkow ia the wwli „, Canada's gold production, over $42,- 000,000 or nearly 80 per cent will be furnished by Ontario mines. During 24 years of mining prior to 1911 Ontario produced a total of $2,- 500,000 in gold. In the succeeding 20 years this province has brought Its total to more than 350,000,000. outstripping Its nearest provincial rival, British Columbia, by some $135,000 000 although the latter had astart of over 50 years. It Is Interesting to note that of the total gold production of Canada so fir of about three-quarters of a billion ddollars, Ontario has furnished nearly half. Of the Dominion's total since 1911 of Borne $480,000,000 Ontario has contributed about 73 per cent. A remarkable fact about Ontario's performance Is that the bulk of Its i.nlil has conic from a mere hair dozen mines, Hollinger, Mclntyre and Dome ln Porcupine; Lake Shore, Teck-Hughes and Wriglit-IIargreavos In Klrkland lake iwe the star performers. Increasingly important contributions latterly ure coming from the newer mines both within and outside those two camps. f In recent years additional sources of gold have been recruited from the ranks of the base metal mines. Nor- anda in Quobee; Hudson Bay Mining & Smelting and Sherrltt Gordon in Manitoba are outstanding examples in this respect. In addition to being Canada's second largest copper producer, Noranada is yielding about $5,- 000,000 In gold annually. With aid from Siscoe, Granada and the O'Brien, Noranda has raised the status of Quebec, from the standpoint of gold, to the highest point yet attained by this province. Hudson Ray, second largest zinc producer tn Canada, with an annual gold output of some $2,000,000' and Sherrltt Gordon, are performing a similar service for Manitoba. From a position well down the list among the gold producing nations of the world, Canada has forged ahead until it now ranks second only to South Africa with its Incomparable Hand. Canada ousted United StateB from second place last year and bids fair to hold this position Indefinitely by reason fof tlie fact that production has been rising steadily, having doubled In the past 10 years, while that of the United States, and for that matter all other countries except South Africa, has been on the downgrade for years. Predlctltons that Canada's gold output will double itself again in the next decade are based ou three chlof factors: Continued expansion on th part of preseut large producers made possible by mining to great depths; the reduction of costs of production through more econumical methods of milling; and the opening of new mines. Dr. J. B Tyrrell, eminent geologist, sponsors the opinion that gold mining in this country to depth of 12,000 feet is a distinct probability. The importance of this lies in the fact that 90 per cent of the gold mined bo far In Ontario has come from the surface down to but 2000 feet. In the cane of Hollinger and Mclntyre their major yields have come from the 1000 feet level upwards. Canada's present deepest gold mine is Klrkland Lake Gold, which is down over 4800 feet. Only a handful of the world's mines have reached a depth of 8000 feet. Efforts towards cost reduction have already borne rich fruit. Howey Gold of Red lake is winning substantial profits from ore averaging under $4 to the ton, Hollinger Is paying handsome dividends on the handling of ore grading- $6 or less, Mclntyre has recently completed a new mill at a over cf ovor $1,090,000 to adopt a new milling practice Tho new method of treatment is saving 50 cents per ton. Every advance mailo in paring coats or reducing lous in tailings adds to thp country's resource i through making profitable for tre. tment large tconnages of rock hitherto noncommercial.

Some Idea of tho benefits conferred on Canada by re son nl the sensational development of gold mining in recent years can be gained from the fact that a million dollars weekly of gold production Is being Infused intotbe rluggish arteries of commerce. It ls a well known fact that a large proiluc. portion of receipts goes for payrolls and supplies. A well known banker who knows mining from long association ln the north has estimated that evory dollar spent in gild mining Is multiplied 2.1 times oa it courses through commercial channels. 'From tii<; standpoint of dividends gold mines have built up a record of which aifny Canadian may be justly proud. Ontario gold mines alone to tho end oli last year had contributed to stockholders some $105,000,000. ln Looks Like A Financial Crisis for B.C. Government, VIC'HOKIA, Nov. 12— Day-to-day worries are tlife chief concern of tbe member* of Premier Tolmie'i cabinet Planning for the legislature and for a general election huve been shoved Into the background by the overwhelming financial debacle Into which the government bus walked. The government baa 17,000 unemployed on lis bands In cumpa throughout the province, costing a little more than a dollar a day per man to keep without pay. More than $3,000,000 hae already been spent on and through tlictse camps uud the maintenance la rolling up ut $500,000 a month. In addition tho province is committed to provide approximately $1,000,- ono as its share of municipal relief un- ilerstklugs. The Domini: n has cut its appropriation for British Columbia relief to an amount that will merely reimburse the province for half the money It has already spent. With this situation tlie government's financial position Is that lt Incurred a deficit of $6,000,000 iu the flacal year ended last March and revenues have proved even lower this year than last. Aside altogether from relief costs, which the government purposes handling by borrowed capital, its deficit this year is expected to be greater than last. In the early davs of the Tolmie regjme substantial sums were bpi1- rowed in New York on two and three- year terms. These bonds are now maturing with a 10 per cent unfavorable eychane rate and the problem of renewal Is so acute as to make new borrowing to meet unemployment and deficit requirements exceedingly difficult. While business men and government supporters outside tbe cabinet are speculating upon the outcome of this serious situation, the Tolmie government ls so absorbed ln meeting the day-to-day difficulties as they arise that even the measures to be presented to tho legislature three months hence have hardly been considered. While the government ls quite aware that increased taxation yielding about $5,000,000 a year ls the only alternatve to slashing expenditures by that amount, It is well known to those in cloae contact with the administration that no decision has yoi bepn made. 'illie recent cut of $350,000 in civil service pay was less than the amount ol' tlie Increase grunted ln the reorgan- zation of the past year and does affect the situation. The only economy yet announced is Hon. W. A. Atkinson's decision to scrap ten wornout motor cars used by tho agricultural department's field officers—and not to renew them.

'I-HE behavior of rivers Is a fascinating subject to study. *■ The spteii of a river will frequently be changed by the nature Of 'he land through which it Hows. For example, a river will come tumbling down a mountain slope and [lien outer i' flat plain. This causes a great change in the velocity of the river. As the river slows up upon the plain, it can no lunger carry all the sediment which It has been ueeji bringing down tiie mountain side. Hence, It will deposit much of the sediment at the foot of the mountain where it enters the plain. This deposit usually takes the form of a tan-shaped deposit like a section of a cone with its apax in the loot or the mountain, it is known to the geologist us uu alluvial cone. A riper will also deposit much uf its sedimenl when it meets with some obstruction wh.ch temporal'iy blows it up. These deposits are i.nown au liars. They are not permanent. A tar will form lor a time. Then some change lu uouditions will cause it to swept awup again, while u now bar will form somewhere cise. Another tjve of deposit occurs where a river ilows through a wide Hut valley. During u Hood season, Lie river will overlie,/ its banks uud spread out over the ' a,le,i. But tlio outer reuchcs of the Hood will not huve a velooity like the central portion of tlie stream. Consequently tlie sediment will be deposited there uud alter the Hood lecedoc Ihe vulley will be covered with u thick layer ol sediment. This is known us a hood plain. These flood plains are usuully composed of very Hue sediment, sis a result) they usually form fertile trucks of laud which are extremely valuable for agricultural purposes. a; Just as England was coiigeatulaiing herself that babies were arriving taster than deaths were recorded, alarm was spread of another slump in birth rates.

IISTHALIA has the longest fence in the world. It is 100 miles ]ouS, aud is known us the No. 1 Rau[bit i.'enco of western Australia. Although the rabbit l'ences of western s\ustralia alone extend 21123 miles aud cost $1,761,740 to erect, they are constantly patrolled by boun- uary ridersThere is another great fence separating Mew South Wales from Soutii Australia. It sometimes happens that great rains foil on the side of the leuce where there are no rabbits, while a great drought exists on the other side. Then a vast migration begins. A vast host, hundreds u,jon hudreds or thousands of rabbits, are on the move. And that Is where the six-foot fence, topped with barbed vire, come in so usefully. Along tho western side the tciice tne ground is alive with racing rodents seeking a way thiough the country where not a rabbit is tu- Le seen. Up and down they rush till the sun kills them. They die ine hundreds every minute. Emaciated by a hundred-mile trek, famished for water, the fence balks and tlie sun bills them. They die at the foot of the fence. Still others arrive In battalions, in divisions, in army corps, aa though there was no end to the stream. They die on the top of their dead comrades until there Is a swathe of dead rabbits twu^feot deep and a yard wide, stretching perhaps tor live miles. Yet in spite of this terrific death rate, the rabbit population of Australia remains a menace, for every doe gives birth to from four lo seven rabbits every nine weeks, aud her daughters when they aro nine weeks old begin to breed with like regularity. Health Service sunshine Plants with fragrant foliage were popular years ago. The leaves were picked, dried and used lor various purposes, scattered throuyh the linen in bureau drawers and lor scenting ribbon poxes and other thinys. Lemon verbena was a favorite, ruse geranium and other scented geraniums were also used. Then alter the bottle was well packed with the petals, alcohal was added to completely cover them, which made a delicately flavored perfume. THE recent death ol Thomas A.

'|iHL To.tfcc ruins, owned by Lee Dawson, three miles A Bouth svosi of 'i'olteuj Colorado, are yielding some valu- iiule '..rcli'oologlcal specimen Is. Dawson's most recent re- coveiy, und perhaps the most valuable, is a perfectly preserved uiummp, which was recovered a short time ago. The mummy is that of a man of that of oue of the ancient races which inhabited the Southwest centuries ago, und Is in such a remarkable state of preservation that Daw- Eon was able to put It in a case immediately after it was unearthed, for display near the ruins. The body, finger toe nails, and hair are in a splendid state of mummification. One ear is dried to the head, but is visible. The body was discovered In a long tunnel which connects two rooms. A willow mat, upon which the bodp was placed,was well preserved, and pieces of weaving Instruments lor such work, and all other small items found near the body were in good condition and were placed in the case with the body. fllawsoa's theory is that the mummy was once a weaver in nis tribe, aud these articles were placed beside him In death, so that he might continue his occupation in another world, as was the ancient belief. Remarkable, too, WssB the tact that the shroud which covered the torso, tlie cords wh.cn bound the man's knees, even to the knot wi'ich connected them, are plainly visible. The shroud, investigation showed, was constructed of feathers The finding fu the Tolteo ruins have added a great deal to man's present knowledge of the ancient peoples. Dawson, during the past pear working alone, has discovered knives, pottery, arrowheads and other properties of the ancient inhabitants of the village. Plates carrying hieroglyphics, which he says contain the history of the people of that day, have been uncovered, together with a key which will enable him to decipher the plates. DO YOU KNOW? Do you know that there is a disease which, because it is of such common occurrence,is regaarded by many as i) ing inescapable and of but little im- vortance.' Do you know that this disease Is serious in that is causes the death.of several hundreds iu this country each year? Do you know that this disease takes its toll chiefly from among little children, and that tlie younger the child Is the less resistance he seems to have? It is abot measles that we are asking these questions—a disease which is of common occurrence because we are all susceptable to it. and which, as a result of our susceptibility, we almost surely control when first exposed to some one who Is sugaring Irom it. MeasleB Is serious. In the year 19211 this disease wan the direct cause of MO deaths, a number exceeding the number those due to typhoid fever or ncarlot fever In the same year. A recent publication shows that 70 per cent of the measles deaths in Ontario for a period of years were of children In the first three years of llfo. These are the facts we want parents to understand so that they will realize that measles Is a serious disease and that they Should know how to protect their children from Its dangers. Children should bo safeguarded from Infection. The younger thc ch l<?, the more serious Is the danger, and hence the greater the need for care. No child should t,e carelessly or thoughtlessly exposed to disease. If one dlilld in the home is ill or is not feeling well, the other children should be kept away from him. Unfortunately, the mest infections period about measles is just before the rash appears, and so in many cases before measles has been thought of. The result is that most children are likely to be exposed to infection. Until recently the best advice that v.'h ch could be given was to watch, the the exposed child and put h m to bed on the first appearance of watery eyes. Even blotter it would be to put the child to bed eight days ofter h s exposure, because the <sli Id who develops his attack of measles when he is n bed ls likely to escape compl cations. Nowadays we are able to domore than th s. If the exposed child is g ven a dose of serum drawn from persons recently recovered from measles, he will either be protected from the attack or else the attack will be so mild that danger will be pract cal- ly el minated. If blood serums from recent convalescents is not available, then the blood from the parents may be used. As nearly every adult has had measles at some tme. blood from an adult will likely contain sufllc ent power to prevent or modify the attack. Measles is a ser ous and not nfro- quently fatal disease. It should be known for what it is and dealt with accord ngly.

Sixteen are published in communities of leas than 1000 population; fifteen in communities of 1000 to 2000 population; seven In communities of 4000 to 5000; four in communities over 5000 to 10,000. These weeklies appeal to 145,000 of British Columbia's population. The news in these newspapers Is mostly all local, because that la what interests the readers, and the advertisements for the most part tell what local merchants are doing. The country editor knows the people he serves; they are farmers, lumbermen, miners, fishermen, prospectors, laborers, all. It to estimated that the average farm family spends 52000 every year for things which are not necessary to raise crop*.

This was a rock at a point where two ridges ol hills crossed. On the rock was carved a hand. diary of the mate of the Mary Dler describing how the treasure was hidden in a cave under a stream bed. As a small boy Dr. Dean dreamed of going to Cocos Island and discovering the treasure.

There is one atmttt a New York firm sending a German riiinlly there to hunt for the treasure and how they spoilt many years search'ng without succoss. There is tho storp of tho old San Francisco woman, once the wife of a pirate vho lived in a pirate village on Cocos island and who in her old age Accompanied an expedition on a troasuro hunt there.

Good news Is doubly cheering when conveyed persan- ally over the long-distance telephone. Bad news loses much of its unpleasantness when it is sympathetically carried by the voice. Any kind of news gains something from being spoken direct. Your telephone is lihked to 85 per cent of all the telephones in the world. Call "Long Distance" and within a few minutes you can be talking to some friend or relative in a distant place. B. C. TELEPHONE C© Contributed io 1 Huge Sum Lssist Employment C.P.R. Spent more than 811,000,000 on new Branch Line* find station buildings and provided 351,000 days work for men otherwise unemployed. Co- operated by doing work years ahead. Qinee the commencement of the O existing economic situation thc Canadian Pacific Railway has spent a matter of eleven to twelve million dollars in providing work for unemployed Canadians. When it was apparent in the late summer of 1930, that certain areas of southern Saskatchewan were lo Buffer from almost complete crop failure, the Company took upon itself to assist the people in that territory by beginning the construction of a branch line between Vanguard and May- ronne. This line would not, in the ordinary course oi events, have been built for some time, and certainly not at a time when there was no crop available in that particular territory. But the Company desired to give employment to the farmers and their teams in the drought area. The total cost of the line is estimated to be approximately $1,000,000, and this work is still proceeding. The Dominion Government subsequently undertook considerable work for the unemployment relief, and the Canadian Pacific was called upon to cooperate. This thc Company did to the limit of its ability' by anticipating works which would, normally, not have been Btarted for a number ol years. These works included a number of new branch lines, the building of a new station at Regina, some grade Mr. E.W. Beatty Chairman and President Canadian I'acisic l'.y. ro.\i.-,ion in Bribish Columbia, unr5. also the a /plication on_ varioun subdivisions of new rail and new rock ar.d gravel ballast. The total cost of these works were estimated at $11,614,000 and, according to agreement with the Government, are to be completed at the end ol the current year. It is true that thc Dominion agreed to pay interest ior v. limited period on this capital cost, but after receipt of this interest, the Canadian Pacific will still have expended over $1 0,(100,000 from its own Treasury in order to improve the situation in the country generally. This expenditure hos been made at a time when the Company's revenues are suffering severely as a result of business depression. ThiB programme of work, undertaken in order to cooperate with the Government, had given 851,000 days work to individuals otherwise unemployed up to August Mbt last, and at September 14th it was estimated that approximately 100,- 000 more working days would be furnished before the works were completed. Although the Company has succeeded in making substantial reductions in operating costs, it haa hesitated to pursue its policy of economy to the limit out of regard for tlie serious obligation which rests upon all corporations to give as much employment as possible. While protecting the interest of shareholders as far as is consistent with its duty to the country, the Canadian Pacific has been con- son utive in its application of measures which would increase the number of unemployed in Canada. Only recently, after experiencing very severe decreases in earnings, have they pared down their forces to tlie bare essentials necessary for operation. Power,/The Rural Weekly Press Listen to what John H. Perry, President ot the r American Press -^Associttion, has to say on the influence of thi country weekly: "The force that controls thiB country of ours, in the long run, is the rural editor.

Thirty Years a Newspaper Publisher The last issue of the Grand Forks marks Its 30th anniversary as a journalistic venture In the province of British Columbia, being continuously published ly its present owner, G. A. livans. "Gun,"as he is more familiarly known am -ng the older scribes of the province, is one of the few remaining lluks of tho editors of thirty years ago. Thirty years is a long time to run a weekly paper—and In addition huve the odd duties of compositor, pressman, Iinancial expert, society editor and devil on olio's shoulders. Despite more llian a decade iu harness, 1'ubllBher U. A. Evans, in the past four years did uway with tlie '.hand peg" and Installed u linotype, also Increasing his paper to seven columns.

Montreal with 996,000. Toronto with 627,582; Winnipeg with 217,- 5S7; and Vancouver with 245.307,.. show as the four largest cities of the Dominion on the Federal Government census returns for 1931. Saskatchewan ranks second to Ontario as an egg-producing province with au estimated prosluc- tlon last year of thirty million dozen eggs. Total value of poultry products to Canadian farmers in 1930 was 130,000,000. United States motor traffic to New Brunswick for the current season up to July 31 was 12 per cent, heavier than for the corresponding period of last year, according to a tabulation just issued by the Provincial Government Bureau of Information and Tourist Travel.

EARLIER GARD,N STUFFS The making of hotbeds for earlier production of vegetables, and the establishment of kitchen gardens from which people can supply their own requirements Ib being urged through out the province by the department of agriculture through Farmers' and Women's Institutes. It is felt that if this were done more generally the necessity for importing the earlier vegetables from tlie south could be in large measure eliminated. Home canning, or at least the purchase of goods canned in the province, is also being urged to offset the heavy foreign ir.irortatloni of tlisne goods which at present run to millions of dollars every year. It Is a case of keep the dollar at home and keep it rolling. SALTED HERRING MARKET Exports of British Columbia dry salted herring lo Hong Kong and South China for tiie past three years have averaged over half a million dollars a year In value, and British Columbia enjoys a complete monopoly of this trade. As tho herring catch on the east and west coasts of Vancouver island ls usually abundant, and the curing is comparatively inekpensive, it meets admirably the Chinese demand for a good, wholesome and low priced food. Evangeline Memorial Park, Nova Scotlii, with its chapel and museum dedicated to the memory of the heroine of Longfellow's poem and of the Acadian pioneers, has been visited by more than III,mu) tourlfts since it was opened In 1924, it Is announced from Dominion Atlantic Railway headquarters. Steady development of young Canada's interest in farming has increased to the point where a Canadian Council on Boys' and Girls Club Work has been formed to co-ordinate the Junior agricultural movement as a whole. The programme has been broadened to include practically every line and department of modern farming in Canada. Harassed officials of the Canadian Pacific Express Company at Vancouver played nurse recently to a mother and her family of 14 when "Fanny," a sad-eyed retriever, carried by the company from Nelson, B.C., became the mother of 14 puppies. Hurry-up calls were put through for the consignee, a Vancouver youth, who was overjoyed to find the unexpected parcel. When Dr. Josef Wlelawskl, surgeon of the S.S. Polonla, Buffered an utlack of appendicitis, his life was saved by the intervention of Dr. A. B. Taylor of the Canadian Pacific liner Duchess of Richmond, who attended him after a boat had been lowered and the stricken physician taken on board the Duchess. The Incident occurred recently when the Duchess of Richmond was 300 miles off the coast of Ireland. With a jammed rifle and a rearing grizzly, a few yards distant, Dr. L. B. Kingrey, of Portland, Oregon, guest at the Banff Springs Hotel, on a hunting expedition in the Palllser River section of the Canadian Rockies, bad a narrow escape. The huge animal delayed Its attack long enough for the doctor to clear bis rifle and shoot It. His bag on the hunt was two grizzlies, four black bears, three goats and two elks.

FEEDER CATTLE MOVING Under the arrangements made by the live stock branch of the department of agriculture twelve curloads ol cattle for winter feeding have been moved from ranches to farms In the country. As many ranchers have more cattle than they can fatten, and many farmers havo plenty of teed but no money to buy cattle, the arrangement Is made for mutual advantage. The cattle aire weighed when going from the breeder to the feeder and are again weighed when ready fur the market. The feeder is allowed the re turns accruing from the added weight, and is also allowed a small amount per pound of the total weight for improving the quality of the beef. Added to thig is the advantage of instruction and experience in scientific feeding. HOLLY FOR PANAMA The markets branch of the department of agriculture is sending a trial shipment of British Columbia holly to the Panama canal zone. J. A. Strong, Canadian trade commissioner in Panama, is now on the coast and .believes a good trade for Christinas holly could be worked up there among the large American population. Shipments sent cold storage should arrive in good condition. Vancouver Island is particularly well adapted for holly production, as is a portion of the lower mainland.

DID YOU EVER STOP TO THINK That advertis.ug through the printed page has the necessary atti's.»!tlve- ness and oliiciouop of perlormaucu mat brings profitable results. History hits shown that continuous advertisers have found success, while non-advertisers havo always been i,agg.ng behind. Lack of advertising is killing ms.iny a business that should'show Increasing business instead of decreasing business. Peple have been educated to the fact that well advertised products a.o thu quality kind and thep won't buy any other. Continuous advertising of quality creates u buying demand which assures the advertiser quicker turnover. Anp business in this day and time cannot stand still. Progress and competition demand that lt move ahead or go out of business. Continuous advertising of quality and service builds and keeps the oou- udeuce of the public. Without the con tldence ui the public, up business can move ahe.id. Continuous .advertising is the modern way of building better business. it proves to the public that the advertisers are proud of what they have tor sale. . Anything wodth selling is worth advertising. Advertising is the most egective selling help tbat can be found, be cause continuous advertising paves Ihe wap to bigger sales. Every business having something to sell should advertise continuously to the public may know who they are, where thep are, and what they nave for sale.
