BC Historical Newspapers
The oldest mining camp newspaper in British Columbia. ; The Ledge was published in Greenwood, in the Kootenay Boundary region of southern British Columbia. The Ledge was published by James W. Grier until 1907, and was subsequently published by R. T. Lowery (1907-1920) and G. W. A. Smith (1920-1929). The paper's longest-serving editor was R. T. Lowery (1906-1926), a prolific newspaper publisher, editor, and printer who was also widely acclaimed for his skill as a writer. The Ledge absorbed the Boundary Creek Times in April 1911, and was published under a variant title, the Greenwood Ledge, from August 1926 to May 1929.

From all reports "Dangerous Business" the latest starring vehicle of Constance Talmadge. is another noteworthy departure from the ordinary screen play. It1 will be seen"at the Greenwood Theatre ori Saturday, May 6th. Here is what-the United States Department of Agriculture has to say about certain so-called sex indicators in a report recently published in the form of an official bulletin: Spring Irrigation Work '-One of the most recent -marvels- brought ' to the attention of the public was the sex detector which, bo tbe manufacturer claimed, would indicate unfailingly the sex of the bird that would be hatched from an egg or whether the egg or not was fertile. By its use poultry raisers were promised approximately 100 per cent hatches and as high a percentage of females as they desired, "One of these instruments was an elongated, tubular, plummet- shaped device made of nickel- plated iron and filled with a greenish mixture of calcium carbonate and an aluminum salt and suspended by a fine thread. . When held an inch above an egg containing a male germ the stuffed tube was said to swing back and forth like the pendulum of a clock, but if the egg were of the opposite sex the bob would describle little. circles, and in the case of an infertile egg there would be no motion at all. Another device consisted of a small gilded, wooden ball having a cav- itv filled with red lead and covered by a small iron disk, the whole suspended by a cord. The telltale motions were claimed to be the reverse of those that indicated male and female with the other instrument. "At the suggestion of the Post Office Department, the Bureau of Chemistry of the United States Department of Agriculture made tests of several of these sex detectors, with the result that'all the I manufacturers have now gone out of" business; Tests of eggs and other things by a number of persons showed that all the instruments were useless. No two persons got the same results with the same eggs, and eggs known to be infertile gave positive indications that they would hatch both pullets and cockerels." The baseball grounds have been put in first class shape. The boys are out practising nearly every night and there, is the makings of a much better, team than that of last year, provided thait they practice and practice constantly. King's Exporting Agency, of Lethbridge, Alta., have rented j the Hunter-Kendrlck brick block on Main St. They will occupy the building- as a warehouse : and establish ;, a -wholesale liquet agency. ..'Prosperous times asd good spirits are in .store for Greenw��od.7Vvy ."."������-'''-'' ���-��� G. Summers and P. Nelson, a mining engineer of Vancouver, are looking over some mining properties around Greenwood. Peter Barker, a former em* ployee in the silver refinery at the Trail smelter, appeared before Magistrate Binns in Trail last week, charged with the theft of silver'slims- from" "the smelter. Barker was found guilty and was sentenced to a year at hard labor. A splendid suggestion has been made that ~s. day should be set aside, at as early a date as possible, to be regarded as Arbor Day, on which occasion every citizen or ' every family should plant a tree. Such a scheme would do riiore towards beautifying a town than anything else and would be well worth while. John, Barrymore is Constance Talmadge's ideal man in "Dangerous Business," until an Italia,n tenor sings to her���then a new cinema romance enters into her life. Connie will be seen in this new First National vehicle at the Greenwood Theatre on May 6th. It is declared to be the most delightful -picture; in .which Miss Talmadge has appeared this season. Tbe amount of spring irrigation work depends to a large extent on the work done the previous fall. Ditches and laterals should be cleaned of sediment; and flumeB, weirs, gateways, and culverts re- ' paired, so as to be ready when the water is turned on. Irrigation will not take the place of cultivation, and as cultivation comes first in the spring itinerary, it should be thorough. If there are any humps or depressions, these should be smoothed out with the scraper or float, or with both. Time spent in levelling land is amply repaid in the labor and time saved in irrigating, and the more even distribution of water, which results in increased crops. The more thorough the cultivation tbe better the seed bed, the better the germination, the better the soil to receive the irrigation water and tbe better the crops. When should water be applied? This is a question to which a definite answer cannot he given, except irrigation should commence before the plant Bhows distress. Do not irrigate if possible before the crop |Jbas germinated, as in the early spring the irrigation water is very cold and will lower the soil temperature considerably, and^ retard and in some cases materially affect germination. Thrifty growth Bhould characterize a crop from start to finish. Even a small degree of drought will induce some plants to enter upon the~~maturing process/and further irrigation may start- an undesirable new growth rather than promote the old. This is seen many times in the distorted tubers in a potato crop. Many irrigators make an examination of the soil to determine when to irrigate. Some soil is taken from a few inches belcw the surface and pressed in the hand. If when released the soil hold together and shows the finger marks, it is not necessary, to irrigate-but if it does not hold together it needs irrigation. The quantity of water to apply at each irrigation is entirely a local problem depending upon the crop, tie soil and the weather, and will come to the irrigator with experience. Cultivated crops require less water than 7uncultivated crops, as the loss from evaporation oan be reduced by surface cultivation. Alfalia, clover and pastures require about twice as much water as the cereals, and should be kept moist throughout the season. Grains require the largest amount of water at flowering time. Cultivate if possible before and after irrigating; beforehand to make tbe soil more receptive, and afterwsrds to form a mulch and check evaporation. Do not put off irrigating expecting it to rain, as the light rainfall in Eastern British Columbia has but little effect on the amount of irrigation . water required. Kettle Valley Notes' Bayard and Charles Bnbar were 'lown from Beaverdell on business. J. Little returned on Saturday afternoon's train from Vancouver. The W.

Since the first of the year the Bell mine,' Beaverdell," hasVship-' ped 122 tons to the Trail smelter. During the same period the Sally" shipped 76 tons. During the four months ending April 30th, the Trail smelter received 150,493 tons of ore. This considerably exceeds last year's figure, 139,857 -- which was the previous record. Hard Winter on Cattle The battle of "Clean-up-Days" was well carried out. The rain on Wednesday . morning delayed the advance for awhile, but finally all the objectives were taken in oue grand assault. Now that the smoke and hustle of the battle is over, Lt. CoL Lawn Rake, who issued the battalion orders, is well pleased with the result. The work of consolidation is ��0- ing on apace and after a few skirmishes here and there by the mopers-up and bombing squads the enemy will be entirely cleaned out of town. .V Send a Float to your friends at once.7 = - Yoa 7 can get.! them at The Ledge office V ;- ���������..V.: Evidence of the heavy toll, which the severe winter just ending, has taken on cattle in .the valley is evident to even the casual traveller passing through on the train. Numerous carcasses are to be seen in the. shallows of the river. The cause appears to be. due partly to.disease arid partly to shortage of fodder. "Cheaper to let them die-; than to buy feed," is the way some- ranchers; view, ifc', owing to the slump in beef prices. One big. cattle, owner .at Keremeos is reported to have, lost over. 70 head.-���Princeton S&ar.

While the building of a 22.000 acre irrigation .project has given the first impetus to the rapid growth of Oliver, B.C., and while the cultivation of the lands within that project give assurance of continued and inereasingprpsperity. for "the Oliver district, another resource may bring even greater immediate returns and add materially to the activity of that town and community. This other resource is mining in the old Fairview camp. It has been known for some time that the Guggenbeims have been prospecting the ore bodies in the Fairview district with diamond drills. It is now reported, on what is considered- reliable" authority, that the results ofthe drilling last year proved highly satisfactory and that tbe great Guggenheim interest have taken up their option to purchase the properties that they have been exploring. This same authority is responsible for the further report that fully 300 men will be working in the mines of Fairview by fall. .

Dunning delivered several addresses before public; l.odies, and the Keynote of each address was the need for confidence and the 'uibsiantinl grounds which existed to justify such con fide nee. i Ion. 'I. ','. Norris. Premier of Manitoba, in an address to lhe Credit Men's Trust Associaiion early last mouth, laid emphasis on the same need, and on the lieeesMty for iinretnii ting labor on the part of all citizens. if any men in the West today are in a position to size up the weaknesses oi Ihe present, situation: if tliere are any men who are confronted with heavier responsibilities and grealer ditlicullios and'problems than other men; if there tire men who might whh reason feel a lack' of confidence in the future. Il is those men who as heads of Governments have had to deal daily with (lie scores of complaint!* and grievances arising out of tlie hard times of the past j ear. If these men can look to the future with confidence, and are willing io devote their best energies and all Iheir lime in bringing about that heitcrment which is lo be had if it is gone afier iu the right, spirit, and in an Intelligent, determined manner, then there'is no reason why others should be lainf-hoarted or lukewarm in effort. In his address to which reference has been made. Premier Norris made an inipoit.ant point which is deserving of (the serious consideration of all workingmen in cities and towns.

Thcir men were anxious lo come to the cities. If they short-( ened the time for earning money they increased the time for spending money. J.very advai-lngo of that kind cost something more in the production of food. Living became more expensive. More men and women were-added to the tanks of the workers in the cilies. with an inevitable increase in the number | ruenl ot unemployed and added acuteuess to the problems which the city worker ���*����-*s <in,ons ,he varIo,,s schoo,s had to contend against. Premier Norris expressed the opinion that Lhe extreme labor man was thus standing in his own light, when lie advised a d���1-hour week, because he. look from the ranks of the producer on the farms and added to the ranks of the consumers in the cities. The balance ,nntst be kept equal to maintain Ihe ability to bring in new money, and now money was that which was produced from the soil itself, and it was only to the extent that, that new. money was produced thai steady and profitable employment could be provided for ilie city artizan, store clerk and ollice employee.

Weak, Watery Blood People think of neuralgia as a pain in the head or lace, but neuralgia may effect any nerve of the body. Different names are given to it when it affects certain nerves. Thus neuralgia of the sciatic nerve is called sciatica, but the character of the pain and the nature- of the disease is the same, and the remedy, to be effective.��� must be the same. The pain otoneuralgia, whether it takes the form of sciatica, or whether it affects the face and head, is '��� caused by starved nerves. The blood, which normally carries 'nourishment to the nerves,- for some reason no longer does so and the excruciating pain you feel is the cry of the nerves for food. The reason why the-blood Tails to properly n'our-' ish the' nerves is usually because the blood itself is weak and thin. When you build up thc thin blood witlv-Dr. Williams' Pink' Pills, you are attacking neuralgia, sciatica, and kindred diseases at the root The value of these pills in cases'of this kind is shown by the experience of Miss Beu- lali M. Pah-weather', Cumberland Bay, N.S., who says: "A few years ago, following an attack of measles, I was left in a badly run down condition. I was weak and very nervous,'and had no appetite. A doctor was called in and gave me medicine, but it. did not. help me. My blood was thin and my hands and my feet were always.cold. Then to add to my misery I wiis attacked with neuralgia,-from which 1 suffered greatly. I was reduced to a mere skeleton, and did not ,care whether I lived or not. 1 was in this deplorable conditions when I began faking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. It was some time before I could' notice any benefit from the pills, but before a halt a dozen boxes were used there was no doubt- that they were helping me.

"Thc limit: ISAIAH'S REMEDY FOR A WORLD AT STRIFE Isaiah does not set forth merely an ideal for a world at strife, but foretells what shall actually take place in the latter days, which sliall put an end to all earth's strife. In these Scripture texts lie reveals the fact that Jesus Christ shall come and establish His Kingdom and remove from men's hearts the cause for strife. I.. The Kingdom Established yisa. 2: 2-4). By "mountain" in the Scriptures is meant "kingdom" (Dan. 2:35; Rev. 13:1; 17:19-11). 1. Its position, (v. 2). It shall be in a place of supremacy. it stands at the head of all kingdoms. In fact the kingdoms of this world shall then become the kingdom of Christ (Itev. 11:15). 2. The restored nation the teacher of the Gentiles (v. 3). Cod culled Israel that He might make Ills name known among other nations, Now after many centuries bf apostasy and rebellion the chosen nation comes into its own. Cod's favor will be so outstanding as to gain the attention of the whole world and cause the people to come up to Jerusalem to hear the law of God. ' 3. The divine judge (v. 4). The problems of the nations of the world shall be adjudicated by One who is all-wise, and He-shall rebuke- many people. . Because of this rebuke they shall convert their implements o'f war into implements of husbandry and they shall learn war no more. II. The King (Isa. 11:1-5). 1. Ills lineage (v. 1). He is of royal stock, of the house of David. From t.h'e fact that thc "branch" grows out of David's roots, it is shown that Messiah shall come when lhe fortunes of the nation are very low. 2. His qualifications (vv. 2-3a). Thc Holy Spirit shall rest upon Him in His completeness, qualil'iyng Him for His work. "Wisdom and understanding refer mainly to the clearness of intellectual and moral insight; counsel and might to the qualities which give sound, practical direction and vigor to follow and carry through the decisions oT.practical wisdom; while the knowledge and the fear of the Lord define relation by its two parts of acquaintance with Clod founded on love and reverential awe which prompts to obedience.'' He shall have quick understanding in ihe fear of the Lord and His delight shall be to do God's will. This has fulfillment in Jesus Christ in whom are hid all lhe treasures; of wisdom and'knowledge (Col. 2:3)7 ' --- " . - -, 3. Thc character of His reign (vv. 3b-5).'.

Is it a power peculiar to certain natures, or a power whicli could, under training, be perfected by anyone? if so, what training? And what or who is there in Lhassa who teaches the., use of ibis power? These are some of the questions asked by "A.K.," a contributor to Cornhill Magazine, after describing remarkable performances which lie, a senior official in the Indian civil service, along with a senior commissioned officer in the Imperial service and a department head of one of the civil departments of Government, witnessed. Tlie writer had seen several exhibitions of Nawab Sahib's skill when the latter had gone out into his garden and gathered up corbras and deposited them iu a pot without the use of any musical instrument. He simply concentrated his gaze on the snake and then picked it up and placed it in the pot. Afterwards he drew the poison fangs from the serpents and. gave them to fakirs and beggars who made a business of so-called snake- charming. Nawab Sahib did not give demonstrations for money and lie practiced no flummery in capturing wild snakes. "A. K." describes-the modus operandi:��� "Thc Nawab stood, with right.elbow and arm pressed against his side, his right hand raised to his head, and one of his Angers closing his right ear. All���he required was an earthern gharra, or pot, to carry the captured snakes, and a cloth to tie over the mouth of the pot when any snakes were inside. He also carried a few grains of rice iu his left hand. He moved slowly along, his head bent slightly forward, and now and then he would hesitate, as if listening. My Tricnd, myself, and a few privileged servants followed a few paces behind, talking, if at all, only in a whisper. Suddenly, after a moment's hesitation, he made a dart to one side and seized the tail o'f a cobra lhat was wriggling awtiy in the grass. This was duly consigned lo the pot. Number one! We had the compound to search, and did not stop to extract fangs or to lease the cobra and make it sit up and expand its hood. Within fifteen minutes we had five cobras in the pot. Apart from the actual capture, it takes some" skill to persuade an angry, venomous snake, held aloft by the tail, lo go into a dark pot! . Once the head-is w'c-11 iuside-tlie pot., the rest of the.snake seems to follow easily." When ��� the parly, returned to the bungalow the Nawab explained that lie had some power of so disturbing any.snake"withiu the -orbit of its'in- Huence that it would come forlli and be captured. The power, he claimed, was projected through his .eyes. . As a proof of- thei. latter statement the Nawab. bent over the pot. containing the writhiiyg-snake, and, looking fixedly at them.'putrrhis hand in,- mauling the snakes about at his will. . First he ..would lift thc head of,.one io- tlio iop of the other.'- Someone spoke to him and he looked up. At once his anil secured to jerk and he cried out iti pain. : "Ah, I am bitten."'.-' The snake had- "struck him," while the spoil was: broken, on the third "joint of his second finger. ��� Then.it was that the Nawab . performed , magic which: tlie spectators were at an-even greater loss to'explain.--Vile clenched his list and'holdiug his hind-some eight, or. nine", inches from-his-face, gazed..intently, at -the "place wliei.'e_the skin ��� had been . punctured by ' the snake's, faiigs. *'��� In a few.-moments ,a small; amount of yellow matter exuded 'fronv.the. wouads....-' It, was the poison. 7,He "suffered .no after-effects.���" Cornhill Magazine..'.- -V V .��� Children Cry for FJefcher's ) Fletcher's Castoria is strictly a remedy for Infants and Children.

Many small farmers, and some by no means small, are reverting to the horse in preference to tractors, though on large farms the tractor should always win, if' handled carefully.
