A Proposal to Regulate SANITARY CONDITIONS SHOULD BE IMPROVED���STREET WATERING BY-LAW Pacific Coast Pipe Co., having quoted the lowest prioe for wood pipe. A resolution was therefore pushed authorising the committee to purohase a car of pipe from the above company. The city clerk was also authored I to call for tenders for supplies for the new electric lighting system. That a by-law be passed imposing some much needed sanitary regulations upon the various Chinese laundries in the oity was the request contained in a letter which waB read before the council at lost Friday morning's meeting from Mr. S. M. Gore, of the Kelowna Steam Laundry. The letter ran as follows: e Gentlemen,��� As the proprietors of n laundry, organized and conduoted by white citizens, conforming with your by-laws and suggestions in so far as they exist as applied to laundries, we bog lo make the following request, basing our appeal upon the standpoint ol publio health:��� That by-laws should be made and strirtly enforced regarding the sanitary conditions of laundries and restaurants, and we would therefore make some suggestions for laundry regulations. "That no laundries be allowed to accept bundles from houses where it is known any infectious disease exists. "That there bo a proper sterilization of all white goods. "That there be a proper separation of unwashed from washed goods. "That there be a proper separation of very dirty goods (suoh as camp laundry, frequently full of vermin) from the reorular articles. "That general cleanliness of entire premises be insisted upon. "That premises be inspected at least one* a month. "That laundry buildings must 1. be used for sleeping or eating in." We think our appeal is a fair one, for besides the ground of public health we think some regulations are due to us for our mm protection. We are in every sense , "white" laundry, employing white help and runn'nv a snni Inry business.. Most ol the money paid into the many Asiatic laundries crosses the Pacific, while few of the owners conform to the elightest degree of cleanliness, and this at 'east, thev should be made to do." We are gentlemen. Yours respectfully, Kelowna Steam Laundrv. Per S. M. GORE. The suggestion was tamed over to the Hearth oommittee. Street Watering The by-law for levying a special rate | for street watering waa finally passed. The watering was to be continued during the months ol April to September inclusive, and a rate of three cents per foot was to be levied upon occupiers of all premises fronting on Bernard avenue from Abbott street to Ellis street; a rale of two cents per foot on the following: Abbott street from Bernard avenue to Eli avenue. Water street from Bernard avenue to Eli avenue. Pendozi street from Bernard avenue to the southern boundary of the municipality. Ellis street from Bernard avenue to Cawston avenue. Richter street, from Bernard avenue to Sutherland avenue. Ethel street from Bernard avenue to Harvey avenue. Bernard avenue from Ellis Btreet to the eastern boundary of the municipality. Glenn avenue, from Richter street to Ethel street. Lawrence avenue from Abbott street to Ellis street. Harvey and Eli avenues from Wator street to the eastern boundary of the I municipality. Park avenue from Abbott street to Pendozi Btreet. For the purposes of the special tax only lots with buildings upon them wero to bo assessed.

FRUIT FINOS FAVOR ON PKAI1UES Tlio completion of marketing rantfoments for tho season's shipments of fruit and produce is announced from the Okanagan United Growers, J. E. Iteekie, preftidont of the (.'en- ���tral, and J. Ii. Jiohertson, manager, returned on Saturday from a fortnight's trip to the various distributing centres in the prairie provinces to which the bulk of the Okanagan fruit is sent. While away they closed ar- 'iingnments, which it is confidently believed, will give an even more satisfactory distribution than that obtained Inst yoar. \ An increasing interest in and satisfaction with British Columbia fruit on the prairies is reported by Mr. Robertson. This, he says, is due to the improved grade und pack of ull Okanagan Valley products, which mates* British Columbia fruit mow Katnfio- torv to the consumer on the prairies. A "eneral interest in tho Okanagan and kindly inquiries as to the district were met an all hands. "We found a disposition on the part of the trade generally to give preference to Okanu- rnn nnd B. C. fruit over that offered by our competitors." said Mr. Rob* ���rtson on his return. "With, tho liklihood of greatly increased production this year, It bo- hoovflfi every gr0wer to use the greatest care possible in the spraying, the thinning and general care of his fruit, in order tnat we may be able to put out a more satisfactory pack, even than that of last year. Quality is what will get and hold the trade fqt the district." Annual Teachers' Convention al Vancouver RAILWAY ltUMOKS Tennis Club Want Help to Finance Tournament An application waa reserved from ths Kelowna 'Iannis Olub for a grant of 160 irom tha oity to help the club to finance the Okanagan Lawn Tennis tournament which is to bs bald in Kelowna this year. "Ia order to ba in a position to hold ths tournament," the letter point- ' ed out, "the olub will have to build three new courts and 488 feet ol fence, which haa to be about 13 feet high. The oost of putting in the new courts will be about 1150, and the lumber for the fence about $90. The aotual buu 1- ing of the fence is being done volin- tarily by members of the olub. This tournament wilt attract at least 300 people from different parts of tbe vcl- ley, many of whom hold prominent positions in their respective localities, und should be a good advertisement for the city; but unless the club can get some help from the oity, we are afraid it will have to forego tha opportunity oi holding the tournament in Kelowna and will have to request Boms other town to take it over." In discussing the matter somo doubt was expressed aa to the wisdom of (mating a precedent whioh might draw down upon the oounoil many moro applications of a similar nature from other clubs. Alderman Taylor pointed out ttat if the counoil required a precedent it was to be found in the oase of the Aquatio Association which received an annual grant toward tha expenses of the regatta. It waa left to the finance committee lo consider the request. The Kelowna Hospital Society wrote asking the city to remove a quantity of brush which was thrown over into the hospital grounds during the clearing of a new street last year. Alderman Adams reported that the Light and Water department had called ior tenders (or water supplies, the1 Assistant Chief Engines Sykes, of the C.N.H. passed through on Friday to Vernon. It is understood that his visit to the valley, waB in connection with final arrangements being made for early commencement of the Canadian Northern Bailway branch into the [Okanagan Valley. Several railway contractors ore awaiting orders at Kamloops and the contract for the branch will be awarded about May let. This intelligence is certainly welcome to residents of the Okanagan Valley and we may therefore look for some stir in railway matters within a few weeks' time.���Armstrong Advertiser. Q .

Tho annual convention of the Provincial Teachers' Association was held in Vanoouver on April 14, 15 and 16 with an attendnneo of over eight hundred public and high school teachers.

Miss Thompson, who has been staying with some friends at Summerland was out driving when she saw a runaway coming in her direction. She got out of tho rig to hold her horse, but instead of going 1 straight ahead tho runaway turned in and ran between her and the sidewalk, knocking her down and breaking her nose and cutting her lip. Miss Thompson was taken care of by her friends, and came home this morning.

Although of much more powerful build ho apparently not the equal of Eklund in wrestling technique, and tho latter in spite of the fact that tho toe hold, which is one of his great stand-Ins, was bnrred, brought hs opponent's shoulders to the mat several timss without being really once in a danger- ous position himself. The first full, at the end of ?.l minutes was given to Eklund, but disputed by Clapham, no doubt with some justification, bu' there was no doubt about the second, and although Kklund offered to wres tie another fall there was plainly uo need. Preceding the wrestling bout Ursus, tho strong nian did somo interesting feats of strength, Ursus, who is travelling in partnership with Clapham, in ordinary clothes would not strike one as a particularly strong man, but ready for business on the stage he shows wonderful physical dovo'opment. A display of phy.-ical drill which pro- faco.l his exhibit ion revealed thi Ice- ret of his strength in his command over muscles whieh in most people nre inert and almost useless. His heavy weight lifting and other fents were leudly applauded, especially a sensational one of having a heavy anvil laid across his body and a local blacksmith bringing down a succession of mighty blows on it with n heavy stodge. I hut the Okanagan Telephone Co., are endeavoring to get the assistance of the government in a plan to extend their telephone service up the west side of the lake was the information convoyed in a letter read from the manager, Mr, Dobie, at Tuesday's mooting of tho Board of Trade. Mr, Uobie, after making mention of the crew which were at work in Kelowna on extensions to the syst nn, stuted that the company wore making strong endeavors to get assistance from the government in tho building of a line about two miles south on th�� Y.estlmn'; side of the lake round tho west shore to connect with both the Kolowna and Vernon systems, also u lin? across tho Common igc f liroiif Ii submarine cablo betwejn Carr's Landn^ and Short's point. If tins oould be a-i'ompMshcd, suid Mr. I Doblo, an extensive local service nould be given the people living on the west side of the lake. This move on the part of the company had been made pr'n hally from the great number of n |i,ir< ! and persistent appeals from the people on the west shore of the lake for u service and as there was not sufficient busings to justify capital foing all the way representation had been mado for a bonus sufficient to overcome what the district was lack- 'ng in subscribers. The writer felt that in outlying districts of that kind, it was a better and more economic; policy for (he rovcrnment to assist tho companv tlmn to make tho entire .nditiire th'n elves, and a'twward* have tho operation and ma;nten- Amendment to Oame Act Hits Okanagan NJ3W PRIVILEGE GIVEN TO THE INDIANS WOULD MEAN EXTERMINATION Of DEEH The line when constructed would be littler a subscribers' or a toll line gnd those who wished to havo telephones installed would pay tne regular rent a' for free exchange with their respective towns. This would give tbo subscribers of both Kelowna and Vernon free access to th' s ;')scribcrs on the west side. Mr. Dobie said that any encourage ment the Boat4 could [end to the proposition would bo appreciated by the company. A further item of the correspondence read at the me ting was a letter frot Mr. Hamilton I .an jr. road superinten dent for the district stating thnt all| the principal rouls of th? district h..4 been graded nnd repaired, and truth facilities greatly improved. The pros] Lrram of road work for 1914 was stij under advisem n', said Mr. Lang, bid he cou'd assure the board that \\4 items urged by then, would be giv preference in the yiar'g schedule.

Tho auction sale of the effects of tho British North American Tobacco Co., at thoir Mission ltanch yesterday attracted a big crowd of farmere aud others interested. The bidding , on somo of tho articles put under the hammer was keon and fairly good pripes wero realized for many of them. Mr. ,T. C. Stookwell was tho auctioneer and overything was Bold without reserve. i'lje oflicer's and non-commissioned officers of tbe local company ol tho Itocky Mountain Hangers arc at pre* cut undergoing a special courso of instruction to qualify them for iheir dilferent ranks. Kvery night thoy are hard at work under the instruction of Quartermaster Sorgt. Youn^man ottho Instructional Cadre, Victoria, who is well pleased with the work that is being accomplished. Indoor and outdoor instructions in drill and tactics is being given and at the closo of the six weeks training examinations wilt be held. It is expected that the local company will go into camp next month, but tho time nnd placo hive not been decided upon. Lieut. Cox of Winnipeg was in tho city for three dnys last week giving instructions, but went to Enderby on Monday, leaving tho Quartermaster Sergt., to carry on the work. "If the new amendment to the provincial game aet whereby Indians are allowed to shoot deer up to the first of April is allowed to go on the statute book, there will soon be no doer in tho Okanagan." This was the remark of Mr. S. T. Elliolt, president of the Kolonna Board of Trade at the monthly mooting of the Hoard Tuesday evening. The Kelowna Board of Trade linve been actively interested for sometime past in the prevention of the slaughter of game, und it waB only recently that they passed a strong resolution that the provincial government enforce a close season on does for two yew, and that they prohibit tho sale of onison at any time throughout ll" Okanagan Valley in consequents1 of ths wholesale slaughter that hud hen ��� going on- This the provincial1 secretary, Ur. H. K. Young, intimated he would bring to the attention of the government. ' - ' It would appear, however, that an amendment had been made or was suggested to the game aot permitting Indians to shoot buck deer up to the first of April. "This was a serious matter" said Mr. Elliott, "and required immediate attention. Such an amendment would at onco nullify the excellent work that Deputy Game Warden Sullivan had been carrying out in this district in protecting game. Several Indians bad been found recently with venison in their poiression, but Mr. Sullivan was quite helpless in the matter as it v.as impossible to say whether it was buck or doe meat so that practically tbe ���aw waa a dead letter. It waa a well known fact, which could be supported on the best authority, that Indiana had in tho past shot does ior the purpose of then; laws. This waa a specially favorite dish of the Indians. If ihis sort of thing were allowed." concluded Mr. Elliott, "there would soon bo no deer in the valley," It was unanimously resolved that a special committee be appointed to draft a resolution for presentation to the government. Mr. Allan Brooks, a well known ' Okanagan sportsman and taxidermist, who was in Kelowna on Wednesday, in tho course of an interview stated he entirely agreed with the stand that the Kclowna Board of Trade bad taken in endeavoring to, have ths amendment repealed. Special emphasis, he aaid, ought to be made in connection with the prohibition of the sale of all game, and the game act, in the main, left as it had been during the past two or three years. The system of having the open season for game birds declared by an order in council a short time previous to the said open season was detrimental' to tho intcr- sta of game protection as there should bo one specified season known somo considerable time beforehand. Mr. Brooks stated that magpies aad crows had recently increased considerably in the Okanagan. They were the , chief enemies of game birds in the spring and destroyed at least three- fourths of the nests of all game birds and water fowl in the well-settled sections of the distriot. He strongly advocated that the government grant a small bounty for destroying these pests and their eggs. It might be stated that Mr. Brooks has the finest collection of birds' skins in Western Canada. ^B ���o- BIG SAWMILL F11IE Fiio, which started in tho conveyor to tho boiler room early Saturday morning, completely destroyed the plant of the Alberta Lumber Company Iho south shore of False Creek, Vancouver, anil binned ��� largo amount ol lumber stored in the yards. 'ihe damage is estimated at $150,000. Insurance covers half of tho losa. About 11)0,000 feet of lumber vaa burned in the yard,, while ovor lo.tiOO feet waB stored in the mill. Nearly half a million boxes, squill to something like 26,500,000 pound., of British Columbia apples v/ert ;nar- keted last season, according to figures compiled by R. O. L. Clark, chief inspector in British Columbia for ihi Dominion fruit inspection department. The Okanagan Distriot W.C.T.U. will meet ia convention at Summarland April 30 and M,av 1st. Summerland is prepared to receive a large delegation from Kelowna union. All members are eligible to attend. An important conferonos of superin ' tendents of InBiirnnco of the four Western provinces will probably bo hel I in Calgary on May 13. Insurance a- fain in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia will he discussed, in the bono that uniformity in insurance law and in regard to ths I requirements may bs finally attained.

Board of Trade Meeting (Continued from Pago One.) Penticton Wants Broukwator. Two resolutions wero forwarded froc the Penticton Board of Trade lor en dorsation. The first referred to lb need ol a breakwater at tho south en ol the lako, and ran as follows: "Whereas the town of Penticton ia situuted nt tho southern extremity o Oknnagan Lako, and is subject lo th lull sweep oi tho north winds; and Whereas in the past, launclus and Bail ing boats have froquontly been woshe ashore and badly damaged, or sun at their moorings through lack o shelter; and Whereas, it is deairabl that some place of shelter should be provided for sailing -boats and other small eralt coming from the different points on the lake, where th.-y can remain in saloty and land their passengers or cargo; Therefore bo it resolved that wc, the Penticton Boinl ol Trade do earnestly petition tho nonunion "ovornment lo construct a breakwater and landinr plooo til some convenient point, for the purpoao of lnnd'nj and mooring small craft.'1 This was endorsed by the mooting, but the second resolution which ashed the government to provide a larj.vr dredt'o for use in the operations being concluded on the Okanigan river, south Irom Penlielon. was lelt ovor lor the present in ordor that the secretary might secure further information roirnrding il. Weekly Local Market Scheme Tho project of a weekly market for Kclowna was broached again, but want of information on tho subject prevented any real discussion. Hr. Lionel V��� Taylor expressed himself as in favor of the scheme. He said that at present farmers bringing produce from the country had to go round hawking it to tho stores nnd probably find that the stores wero ull full up and could not buy any more. If wo had a weokly market ihe people could some and buy theur supplies direct from the farmer, lie thought the stores would support Iho idea, as they really would rather not be bothered with farmers' produce. Ho pouted out too, that farmers would be able to fix the market price n stead of taking what the stores liked to give Hr, Casorso thought tho town ta* not lurge enough to support such an institution. Eventually it was decided that thi secretary shou'd endeavor lo socure information Irom towns of similar sire whioh had markets as to the mothods Peculiarities of the Trees Breathe, Eat, Sleep, And are IU- Nevor Die ol Old Ag�� Trees literally breathe, inhaling oxygen and exhaling carbonic acid gad, Tho leaves are the lungs ol the tree. On the lower Rtirface of the luaf Me vast multitudes of minute mouths or npenin/H 1100.000 to the square inch. it is estimated) which admit tho air and expel the carbon. There are other openings, called It 11- tloels, in Oie dark dots and lines whloh can be easily seen on the twigs ami smooth branches, which help the leavoa just as the pores of the akin help tiie lungs. The perspiration of plants is teehnleally known ns transpiration. The exhalation of water from the leaves is very groat. That from a largo oak is estimated at 160 gallons a day (luring the summer. The evaporation of water from the forests is fully us important as that from tho ocean, if not more so. Tho ocean alone could not produce rain enough to sustain vegetation. The tip ends of the tree roots absorb moisture from the ground, oven in zero weather, but the passage ofi water from the roots up the trunk is ie tnrded until winter relaxes its hold. The largest roots anchor the tree to the soil and do but little else. Hie slender rootlets and the tips of the large roots collect t,ll that part of the t roe's food which comes from tho ground. Trees eat and drink through the leavea and tho rootlets. While thoy breathe alt the time, day and night rain or shine, as steadily as we do, they feed only part of the time. 1'liey sleep in the night, during rainy weather and throughout the winter. Tho growing season is very short, ending by midsummer. The summer droughts out oft or diminish tho supply of water. Tho leaves are battered and eaten by insects. A long period of rest is essential that twigs may harden and the wood ripen, Careful preparation for winter takes the place of further thickening of the trunk or lengthening of the limits. 'Ihe twigs and stems and roots must be stocked with food. Tho trees strive to take in all the, nutritious pints of each leaf before it casts it off. When winter comes it generally finds the tree ready. The lenticols are sealed during the winter to prevent the breathing away of the tree's moisture. Each leaf i�� a laboratory, whore minerals and gases, water and sunshine are made into nourishment for the living issue, from which comes wood, cork, flower, fruit and a large number of gums, o:U, e^seneos aud perfumes which have become indispensable in art, manufacture and medicine. The leaves take oharge of the no-ir- ishment of the tree as soon as they open- They prepare food only in the daytime and in the presence of tho sunlight; the mor? warmth the more work. They make 0 complex substance known as starch, containing oxrygen, carbon and hydrogen. The tree find* its growing season inaugurated when it is supplied with foliage. Eaoh leaf is a builder. A large sugar maple is estimated to haw 482,000 leaves, pre srnting to the sunlight an nre�� of half un acre, Tho wood of the tree is n:��t alive n ither is the bark. Burt between the bark, and tho wood is n peculiar colli) lur substance known ns cambium which is the living pari of th<* tree, from which new tissues are developed. This ministry, by tho leaves, is what lengthens the branches and roots rnl adds to |hfl tree's diameter. Tho up ward mornting of the sap remains ono of the unexplored mvsterles of plant lifo.

Il was decided to forward resolutions to tho government urging the early construction of tho new post office and the proposed armory and drill hull, and also to nress upon the provincial government tho need of a new courthouse to takr the place of tho present disreputable shack, which has to do duty for one. Much amusement was created during a discussion on this subject by a suggestion that tho "courthouse" bo shipped down to the coast to let the government tetf what it was like. A compromise is to be made, however, by sending a photograph, It was stated that in Connection with Mission Crook the government had expended about $1700 in uddition to the 81000 eon'ributed In labor by the fanners.

The baseball Benson ia rapidly drawing near and although Kalowna is a little bohind the other citiea of the league in forming their olub, owing to the tardiness of the people themselves in coming forward to support the enterprise, the local promoters are indeed working hard and energetically but thoy must have the hearty co-operation ol the people themselves to succeed. Many good players are wait in;; the word to report but owing, to the apparent lack of interest amo.ig he pcjplo Ihe promoters have been compelled to go easy. Now as tho weather warms the fan) begin to clamor lor baseball and there is ltttlc doubt thai when the season of the II. C. I, League opens, two weeks h'.me a team that is able to hold its own with any team in the league will be placed' in tho field. The Vernon olub have be recruited oa the count in tho vicinit; f Seattle while tho Kamloops olub Save also been selected from semi-pro and pro. players from the Sound cities, and, if wo may be permitted to make comment on the 'outlook it certainly looks as if tho .team that defeated Kamloops would win tho pennant, however Vernon may be looked upon as a possible contender. Ab to Revels* oke, ��� there is little information to hand, as thay appear to be in readiness although little is known of'their strength. Kelowna have already signed up several first class men from the coast, among them being catcher and manager King Kelly, of Seattle, who has played with both the Seattle and Victoria clubs in tho Northweste n league.

Kenning the old stand by is 'still' with us. Outfielders Powerless and Estloy, brought up from Califf, by Seattle have beon secured, the infield will be made up of one new inliolclor, together with Fred Banning and A. Patten of last year's club and R. Patten will fill in at the initial corner. According to information to hand the players who are expected to arrive very shortly are good men and it is safe to say that the club will present as strong a defence and a far stronger offence that the last year's olub. While tha team lust season played splendid ball in the field, holding the opposing teams to lower runs than any or the other clubs, the hitting was lamentably weak,- and thero is little doubt that this department will Tjo considerably strengthened hy the acquisition of tho new material. , The local olub opens the Reason in Vernon on Wednesday, May 6th nnd in Kelowna the following day, when arrangements are practically completed for a splendid opening program. A parade will be formed and led by the oity band to the baseball park before the game, in which will be the members ef the oity oounoil and every available automobile In the oity.

A ROMAN FARM FOUND Many interesting relics have been discovered at Rookbourne, Down, Dorset, England, where, aa the result ot ex oavations, the remains ot a small Ko man farm inside a low earthen enclosure have been unearthed. Tha extent ot the farm was 96 aores, and the buildings were onolosed with a ditch, whioh surrounded a quadrangle 150 feet by 80 feet. There ate a dwelling house, a bakehouse, snd a granary, with hypocaust, and the remains cf a good deal of corn. Quantities of bones of the horse nnd, or, a large number ot fragments of New Forest, Saurian and other ware, including a perfect jug, pots, purbeok marble vessels, splncllo- wheels, knife blades and coins from GallOnius to Constantino were turned up during the excavation. Inside the ditch is a barrow belonging to the Bronte Age, and here also has been found'an urn, with its eyst and arrow head. Official returns ot land saloa by Ihe Hudson's Bay Company for the peat twelve months show a serious falling off. Tbe tales of farm lands deolined .by t675,000 or nearly 50 per oent and town lots decreased by 11,336,000, or more than 90 per cent. The total receipts for the past twelve months were W.290,00 as against $3,533,000 in the preceding period. A movement of some importance in tbe matter of municipal borrowings appear to be foreshadowed in. an arti- BASEBALL ��� ��� j cle upon this subject which recently appeared in the columns of the London Financial News. The article included a table giving the aggregate and the per, capita borrowings or cities throughout the empire. The por capita indebtedness of British cities is uniformly muoh lower than that ol tho cities of the overseas dominions Stoke-on-Trent being the lowest with a debt of 15b lid per head. The list as applied to Canadian oities is as follows: ' Hamilton CilSfl.DOO, population M>,- 000; per capita bedt ��7,14s id.'

Tho artiolo rotors to the fact '-hat any analysis of the above table should make duo allowance for local condi- ions as for instance the fact that one ity may have followed nn-entorprl ilng policy in matters of publio works, thus leoessitating extensive borrowing, A'hire another city may have held down its bonded indebtedness at tho expense of littlo or no progress in social achievement. The comparative figures for Ketowna would be as follows: Bonded debt ��82,300, population 3,- 000, per oapita debt ��27,8s,8d. The object in preparing these tables of comparative figures was to throw Borne light on the question as to how far population may be accepted as a basis on which to judge the soundness of munioipal borrowings and whether it would be possible to reduce tho whole problem of munioipal borrowing to a scientific basis by means of comparative statistics in which the per- eapita indebtedness should bo taken as the deciding, feature, duo allowance being made for local conditions and ASK FOR The m W& Send for Five Roses Cook Book- COUPON Wrter Nop mi Mka�� |Uah.

It is claimed that) the fruit yield of the Okanagan Kootenuy and other orchard sections will surpass the best production of previous seasons, while grain and root 'crops of the interior, lower mainland ' and island also give promise of splen 'did returns for the farmers. There has been no slackening up it |the energy with which the farmers nnd ranchers of the province have prepared for the work of the year their farms, and according to the statements of the instructors and inspectors of tho agricultural depart ment under charge of Hon. Price Ellison, this "spring there ha% been a steady pushing back of the line of clearing all over the province. There has been this year a *vMi spread interest in live stock farming und the department is said to bo looking forward to the establishment of -a mixed farming system on a large 'scale. Dairying throughout tho vnlloy lands of the province also promise good returns this year, and the dairy farmers are in a sanguine- mood. Particular interest has boon shown in tho cultivation of 'corn and alfalfa, and in the silo. Already the agricultural department has distributed 2000 bushels of registered seed oats, anl almost a ton of Grimm's No. 1 alfalfa together with over half n ton of seed corn. This seed is given free to the farmers of the province through the agency of tlio various Farmers' Institutes. Recently the department inaugurated competitions throughout the province for boys nnd n-irls in the raising of farm and garden crop**. Prizes nre to be awarded in tho various districts for the bait crops raised by the children. Tn this way it is. hoped to stimulate Interest among the children in agricultural work. The Farmers1 Institutes are n nning tho competitions and have reported to Victoria that the youthful farmers aro taking great interest in tho contest. The provincial government |bos leased four aore plots at a number of points in British Columbia for investigation purposes. These are located ot Chilliwack, KanVrocps, Armstrong, Edgewood, Grand Forks and Rock Creek. On tho plots farmers in * tbe employ of the government, and work- ng with tho Co-operaticn of the institutes, grow various rrons for demonstration purposes in order to show the n>if��hhorhood farmers the latest methods of up-to-date crop raising.

A. A. {Scotty) Allan, driver of the Allan- Darling team of eighteen malamutes, was second, and Fred Ayor, with his team of fourteen fox hounds, third. Johnson's time wa�� 7 hour, dower than the reoord est by himself in 1S10, when he drove the Siberian, over the course in 74 hours and 14 minutes. The racers were handicapped this year by stormy weather, bliszards and below- zero weather, making the going slow most of the way. - The Siberian Wolves, driven by Johnson, are considered by experts the greatest racing dogs in the world. They are a cross between the "Husky" the Alaska working dog, and the Siberian wolf. They have the agility and endurance of the wolf, and the faithful intelligence of the Alaskan dog. They are .light in oolor, either white or grey, with a shaggy coal tables, or on papyrus. At last a German discovered how to make paper out of linen rags. If you hold paper sheets to the light, writes S. Baring Gould, you will see that there are peculiar marks on them, called water marks; these were originally the badges of the makers. The very earliest of these marks is a circle with a cross in it, and was adopted by the first inventor in 1301. Many of the water marks are the badges of noble families, whose tenants made the paper. Other symbols are the fleur-de-lys, the unicorn and the anchor. Fools' cap paper is so called because paper of that size was originally marked with a Jester's cap and bells, and port paper take, its name from a bugle which was in use as a water mark on paper of this size by the manufacturers from 1370. It sometimes appears on a shield, and in the seventeenth century is surmount ed by a ducal coronet, in which form it is still used on ordinary writing paper. The first paper factories In Germany were between Cologne and Mainz, about the year 1390. In Nuremberg a factory worked by water power was established in 1390 whioh was quite a novelty. Printing was discovered by John Gutenberg in 143B. Already wood-cut pictures, and even written sentences, hod been printed, but no one had thought of making moveable letters. At first the paper was pressed down on the engraved block and printed on one side. The outlines only of figures were printed, and then they were paint ed in by hand. At last John Grons- fleisch, of Sulgeloch, known as Gutenberg, which was the maiden name of his mother, saw how much better it would be to have movable types. As he was a poor man he went to arioh OOB TELEPHONE VOICE In this age of the telephone we have come to value more highly the soft modulated tone in habitual speaking. When we merer/ wrote or telegraphed to our friends we took little notice ol voice tons, in the messages, says a writer in the "Baptist Standard."

FISH OARBIES VOUNG The Kangaroo has always seemed to have the monopoly of that convenient way of carrying its babies in a pouch but it has been discovered that a fish has the same useful receptacle, which it uses for the same purpose. The pipe fish, as it is called from the length of its jaws, has a pocket on the under Bide of its body nearly half its length It is found in the male species only and is the only part of its body which is unprotected by large flat plates, which take tho place of scales in its protective armor. If a pipe fish is taken from tho water and its little ones shaken out of the pouch baok into the water they always seem unable or disinclined to ran away. But if tho father is placed in the water again all the sma'l fish Immediately swim back Into the pouch, 'I hese curious little cro.it tiros havo pro��� honsllo tails, which thoy use to hold on lo tfia seaweed Co invent thorns-Ives being Carried away by the tide.

YEAR OF THE TIGERS IN JAPAN The tiger is at present occupying a particular place in the regard of the Japanese.

Trade las been greatly influenced by this special, veneration of the tiger. Pictures of the tiger are being imported in large' numbers, and it is safe to say that every household in Japan has now. some tiger picture conspicuously displayed. In I Ii.' wealthier houses the ��� beautiful silk or velvet screens adorned with wonderful tiger designs have iwen brought out of Ihe treasure houses nnd given places ol honor, while ornaments ' which harmonize with these wero taken j from thoir places ol seclusion and utilized to give the special end artistic ef-; feet desired lor the year ol the tiger.
