Trade During their visit here at the middle, of May general manager Pratt and President Howe of the Associated Growers of B.C.. had an interview with Charles Monro, in which the Greston rancher discussed with them the posslbiBi ties of greatly increasing the fruit shipments to the Orient. In connection with this trade Mr. Moore's qirlto long residence in the Orient enabled him to apeak with same authority, and he is convinced tha tan enormous trade could bo developed there. The Chinese, he aaid. are essentially a fruit eating nationality, but scarcely one in a hundred of thc vast pop li lot ton of China had ever seen an up-pie.

In her inspiring address Mrs. Gordon took as her subject, "Love." showing that it is to tell the love of God that the W.M.S. was established. She spoke of the net-da in foreign lands, especially in India and China, where is more than half the population of the world, and where they have nnly one doctor to hundreds of thousands of people. Mrs. Gordon pointed out, too. that the needs in the home land . are great, especially among tho young people, and this is work for which women are well adapted. The W.M.S. haa now a membership of 02.000, and 100.000 membership is the goal set to celebrate the sixteenth anniversary when it meets next year at Montreal. There are 8000 societies and 31,000 subscriptions to the Missionary Messenger. Last year fundB amounted to 98811*000. The W.M.S. has decided to help the men1-a board, which bos heavy deficits, and it is going to pay the salary of one missionary and subscribe sub Btanttally to tht support of several others. This year twelve miBsiiotiarEGO 3������ro being sent ont, many of them just young women recently graduated from hospitals. Mrs. Gordon spoke of the mission school homes that aro being opened and operated at homo nnd abroad. She told of these soli nol hoines In India, and of the satisfactory condition of th������ work there. Tlsr-rs* homes have their mission bands nnd contribute to mission*.

"Sure tiresome people. Goodness! I was glad to see them at first because I thought they would help'me to pass the afternoon, but instead I was bored to death. That little minx is crazy about Gordon, though. I could see that." "Um!" "And the worst ol it is that she just fits into the scenery here, and I don't. You know, father, I never could wax enthusiastic over shooing the cows to roost and things like that." "Um!'" "I feel like a cleaE person at a concert, here in this town." This remark brought a wry laugh from her lather, and Ilelen smiled. "Well, I've made you laugh any-. way," she said. "You're frightfully grouchy this evening." "My dear, I'm busy, very busy, and I haven't time to think oE trifles. I'll be at it most of the night," "Oh, shall you? Goodness, that's cheerful. I wish I had never come to this awful little place. I suppose I must go back to my letters for something to do. And, father," she added, as he lingered with her for a moment Jn the hallway, "the Purnells seem to think that you and Mr. Moran had better not go too far. The people here are very much wrought up." He. patted her shoulder affectionately. "You leave all that to me and, go -write to your mother." There was nothing else for her to do, so she returned to the parlor. When she had finished her letters, she Idly picked up a week-old copy of a Denver newspaper which lay on the ���������table and glanced through the headlines. She was yawningly thinking o������ bed, when Moran came into the room. "Oh, are you and father through at last?" "Yes," he answered, smiling. "That la, we're through upstairs. I'm oii my way over to the office to straighten up a few loose ends before I turn in. There's no rest tor the weary, you know." "Don't let me keep you, then," she eaid dryly, as he lingered. "I'm going to "bed." "You're not keeping me. I'm keeping myself." He quite understood her motive, but he was not thin-skinned, und he had learned that he had to jauike his opportunities with her. "Your father lold me you were getting anxious." "Not anxious, tired." "Taingra are gelling a little warm here, but before there's any real danger we expect to have the soldiers here to take charge." He rasher ostentatiously displayed hl������ bandaged wrlsi. hoping to win her ���������sympathy, but she professed none. In- fctPtuI. she yawned and tapped her lips ���������With her fingers, an<J her Indifference "piqued him, "E was talking with Dorothy Pur- tiftll thin afternoon," Helen finally re- SMnrkeil, eyolne hirn lazily, "anrl sho BeeniM to bo o~ tha opinion that you'll have hard work arresting. Gordon Wade. I rather hope that you do." "Well���������" He teetered a little on his feet and stroked his mustache. "We may have, at that. Miss Purnell is popular and she can make a lot of trouble for ns if she wants to. Being very/iiond of Wade, she's likely to do all that she can." ������������������}���������' "Would she really have so much influence?" Helen asked, carefully guarding her tongue. ,.^ He laughed softly as though amused at the thought. -y - Influence? Evidently you don't ood looking girl means town like this. She's mother, sweetheart and a breath from. Heaven to every man in Crawling Water. On that account, with one exception, I've had to import every last one of my men. The exception is Tug Bailey, who's beyond hope where women are concerned. To all the rest, Dorothy Purnell is 'Wade's girl,' and they wouldn't fight against her, or him, for all the money in Wyoming." He was watching her keenly as he spoke, and was gratified to see spots ot color spring to her cheeks. "How interesting!" Helen could make her tone indifferent to the -point of languor, but she could not ketep the gleam of jealousy out of her "eyes. "Gordon is a fortunate man to have such an able ally, isn't he?" "The finish will decide that, I should say," Moran replied sneeringly. "She may stir up more trouble than all her friends can take care of." For all of her social schooling, Helen was not proof against the sneer in Ms words, even though she fully7 saw through his purpose to wound her. She felt her temper rising, and with it came curiosity to learn liqw ^.far the relationship between Wade and Immensity of Last Grain Crop Clogged-_p ������if fb silts*������������ It's foolish to fuffer from constipation, sick headache, biliousness, dizziness, indigestion; and kin dred. ailments CARTERS ITTLE IVER when Carter's Little Lflver Pill* will end all misery in a few hours.

Dorothy Purneli had really gone. That Moran. would exaggerate it, she felt sure, for he had his own ends to gain, but possibly from out of his exaggeration she could glean some truth.. Yet she did not want to go so far in her anger as" to gratify his malice, and this placed her in something of a dilemma. "I don't believe that slie is 'Wade's girl,' as you call her, at all," she said coldly. . "They may be good friends, and if so, I'm glad; but th<?y are nothing more than that. There is no 'understanding' between them." Moran carelessly waved his hand in the direction of the rain-swept street, illuminated now and then by the lightning. "Ask any one in Crawling Water."

" . ..** "I've ben wanting to have a talk with you, Helen," he began, "and this looks like a good chance to me. You've been foolish about Wade. Yes, I know that you're thinking that I've got niy own ends to further, which is true enough. I have. I admit it. But what I am going to tell you is true, also. Fortune's been playing into my hand here lately. Now, if j-ou'll be- reasonable,.;you'll" probably be happier. Shall I go oh?" "Wild horses couldn't stop you," she answered, amused that he seemed flattered. "But if we were in Washington, I fancy I'd have you shown out." "We're not in Washington, nay dear girl." He wagged his finger at her, in the way her father had, to give emphasis to his words. "That's where you've made your mistake with Wade. We're all just plain men. and women out here in the cattle country, and I'm talking its language, not tho language of drawing-rooms." He was him self a little surprised at the swift dilation oC her pupils, but his words had probed deeper than he knew, reminding her as they did of the truth which she had so fully realized that afternoon. "Wade liked you���������loved you, maybe, in Chicago, but this nin't the East. He cares nothing for you here, and he'd never be happy away lroni here. You know tlio picture of yourself that you sent to him?" She nodded. "Well, we found it on the door of his room, covered with dUBt. He hadn't, even troubled to pick il: up Irom whore it. must have fallen weeks ago." She looked at him dumbly, unable to keep hor lips from twitching. He know ihat: sho believed him, and ho wa.s glad; that she had to believe him, because his; "story bore the impress of truth. -It was not something that lie could have made up. ��������� & . "And while j-our picture" was lying there,-Wade and this Purnell girl were making goq-goo eyes at each other. Why, it was she that rode out to warn him that we were after Santry." Helen's lips curled. "I can't swear to that, but I heard it and I* believe it myself. They must've met on the trail somewhere in the dark, and you can.bet he was.grateful. I don't Imagine that they stopped at a handshake. I imagine they kissed, don't you?"" - ���������-- ' y'- "Oh, I'm tired, worn out," Helen declared, forcing a: smile so artificial that it could not deceive him. "Do go, please. I am going upstairs to bed." "Wait one minute." He put out his injured arm, and, thinking that lie reached for her hand, she brushed it aside, accidently striking the wound.., . "I'm sorry if I hurt you," she said coldly, as he winced. . "Maybe I've hurt you worse," he persisted, with a tenderness that was intolerable to her, "but, if I have, your wound*!! heal just as mine will." He gently pushed her baek into lier chair as she started to get up. .. ,- l "Are you rnaking love to me, "Race?" Under the ridicule of her"tone hi ������ face darkened, vi'f you are, it's insufferable in you." "Go easy, now," he warned her. "I'll not be made a fool of." She ,did npt^heed his warning. Glad to have iiim on tlie rack, where sb_e had been, she laughed at him. "Haven't you sense enough to know that, for that very reason, I'd refuse to believe anything you might say against Gordon Wade? I know how you hate him. Listen, to me= * Oh, this is absurd!" She laughed again at the picture he made. "You've pursued me for months with, your att-su- tions, although Fve done everything but encourage you.. Now I want you to know that I shall never again even listen to you. What Gordon Is to Dorothy Purnell is for him, and her, and perhaps for me to be interested in, but not for vou. Now I'm going to bed. Goodnight!" He caught her by the arm as sho stood up, but Immediately , released her, and stepped in front of her instead. ^ ��������� ' "Hold on," he begged, with a smile that meant wonderful mastery of himself. "I've got feelings, you know. You needn't walk on: them. I love you, and I want you. What I want, I usually get. I mean, to get you." She looked up at him with heavy- lidded insolence. "I may fall, but i������ I do, it'll be one more notch In my account against Wade. I know now where to strike him���������to hurt." "Vou be reasonable, and you'll be happier," she retorted. ."May I go?" "Certainly."' He stepped out oC her way. "Good night."

This, the superintendent of the farm, is careful-to state, does not detract in any way from the valuej of such fertilizers for specialized crops such as garden stuffs. A fact noticeable, the superintendent further says, in all the fertilized plots is that the potassac fertilizers give the least benfit of any of "the fertilizers applied, a*nd it can be ! safely concluded that the supply of potassium in the soil of the prairies is sufficient for the needs of the crops; Sixteen plots were xised in this experiment and , a four-year rotation ! consisting of wheat, oats, hay and corn, was follow:ed. The fertilizers were applied only once in four years, ihat is, preceding the rotation.

Now that the cemetery bas been beautified, outdoor flowers in pro fusion available, and nothing of the sort having yet been under- taken in connection with the sol* diers monument, the request for a regulation decoration day exercises is Quite natural. The popular idea seems to be for a Sunday afternoon function at the veterans monument at which addresses appropriate for such an occasion be ftiven by local speakers, with plenty of mnsic and the usual floral decorative effort, which latter should not, of course, be confined 4,o the monument exclusively. . In all well regulated communities decoration day is an annual fixture, and with the just- pride Oreston takes :in its war sacrifice and the memorial that commemorates ifc no centre is more entitled to such an occasion of the sort than this. This event should in ao wise re. place the usual Armistice Day exercises, but due to the uncertainty of mid--November weather it is felt that the respect due the fallen ca i more fittingly be paid in June tl an in the very late fall. In addition to the patriotic or sentimental side, the occasion can also have its practical turn in that the freewill offering via/ the hat that may be made will come in very handy in erecting a needed iron rail around the memorial whilst any surplus over and above that needed for the rail.can be made good use of bv the memorial committee.

As the chain depends entirely on its weakest link, so a part^* will be judged not by the altruism of its leaders, but-by the impression their followers make.

A tree will furnish a million matches; one match will destroy a forest. There is nothing we are so prodigal of as our forests and the carelessness which we see daily exhibited is a national scandal.

A Good JLSeginniiig At a time, when many people are inclined to look sX the. dark side oi" things, and when there is -much unnecessary and quite uncalled for "blue ruin" talk, it is encouraging to read the reassuring statement made to the House of Commons by the Minister of Ttaihvays'reporting on the operation of the Canadian National Railways Cor the year *H)22. ���������-, The pessimistically inclined will, oi" course, say there is nothing very encouraging in a deficit, for the year oi" 160,253,84."), but when it is recalled that the deficit for the previous year totalled $72,662,278, the improvement is indeed gratifying, revealing, as it does, a betterment,of a million dollars a month. .���������*.-. The most promising feature, however, is-that, whereas there was an actual deficit on account oi* operation in 3921 of $12,63S,77S, this operating deficit was wiped out in 11)22 and replaced by a surplus on operation of $2,202,- 7S2. The 1922 deficit was, therefore, occasioned solely by meeting: fixed Charges. In other words, whereas the Canadian National Railways went deeper into the* hole, as the saying is, in 19J21, that downward course was arrested last year and a little something earned to apply in meeting fixed charges. This would i**eem to indicate that the pc-nlc in financial losses has been reached and passed"; and that improvement from this time onward may reasonably be expected! -*��������� Support for this belief is found in the fact that last year's results were achieved notwithstanding.a reduction in earnings occasioned by reduced charges to the pvibli-e. ><The reduction in operating costs, were however ��������� j;>till greater, clue to the introduction of mim&rous economies. Operating expenses" on the system, other than the Grand. Trunk, were reduced by $13,850,- 527, and on the Grand .Trunk by. $3*&S7,311. .Where it cost -fl 29.32 to earn ? 100.00 in lf320 on the system apart from the Grand Trunk, and $112.77 to earn $'.00.00 iu 1021, if only cost $108.10 to earn $100.00 in 1922, and on the Grand Trunk the ra'io dropped from 05.53 per'cent. in 1021 to S7.04 per cent, in 1922. Other economies and savings effected since ihe amalgamation and unification of! the whole system and the ..assuming of the presidency by Sir Ilenrj Thornton wil! only begin to, reveal themselves in 3923. Tfad it not been for the reduction in charges to the public which went into effocr. last year, the showing for 1022 would have been considerably better. The Minister of Railways estimated that the restoration of l.he Crow's Nest Pass rales'Inst vear re stilted in a reduction in earnings on grain alone of i ' ��������� -0. $6.5t'0.000. ���������- ��������� The figures for 1022 seem to fully justify the belief expressed by the Minister of Hallways that the publicly-owned Canadian National Railways svsi.'vn will eventually prove to be lhe success which every Canadian hopes it. to he. And, as iron, Mr. Meighen pointed out, with an end to deficits In oi erarion, Wu- loss on account of fixed charges is not entirely a loss to Canada li-^e-.iu-*;."**, once, the system readies the stage of returns over and above ���������fixed chargv-**-*, the deficits of previous years will become interest bearing as-i^ss cr; i ho poo pie of Canada.

Lift Off with Fingers Very interesting statistics indicative of the- progressive change which has come over-the conditions surrounding the Western Canadian farnii esp^eb^ais ly as'they apply to the farmer's wife and "her- work, were given at the annual convention of the United Farm Women of Manitoba; The figures in striking manner * illustrate the rapid ' passing of pioneer conditions in, Western Canada, especially in those phases of the life which peculiarly affect tlie wiffe of the tiller of the soil, making her lot an easier and more contented onei ���������'* They incidentally prove .that the era when men came to Western Canada bent solely on getting as much as they could from the iand in the shortest possible time, has passed, and that .with the sinking of deep and permanent,, roots the Western Canadian provinces have become an area of prosperous, comfortable and contented homes. The survey in question covered a total-of 307 typical farms in the province of Manitoba; eighty-five per cent. of which ran frohythreequarters of Ja section to a quarter section and thirteen per cent. oC which were from one section to two and a half sections, ln eighty-eight, per cent, of the cases the occupants of the farms and homes were complete owners." The average home was found to. consist of seven rooms and to contain a family of from three to four children. Whilst 37 of the homes had baths and one-third of the total were heated with furnaces, eighty per cent, of the farms possessed automobiles. Only forty-eight homes were found to be without music of some kind, whilst from one to seventeen magazines and papers were taken ih aii. These brief statistics give" a rough indication of the manner in which pioneering conditions are disappearing "in what cannot yet be otherwise described than as a new land. ��������� The j promotion of agricutlure as-.the first J industry "of Canada's western prov- 1 inces never wanes as a prime consideration,, and this is not limited to the. production of better,crops and en- -hanced production.

Mrs. Truscott, sr., left this week for Harrop where she is making a visit at the home of her son, George, who recently purchased a ranch in that district. F. B. Pearce, who ie teaching at- Boswell until midsummer, spent the week-end at his ranch here, a considerable acreage of which he is planting out to raspberries. The carpenters are making splendid headway with the reconstruction of the Scott Block, and the Imperial Bank are "expecting to be open for business there nob later than the middle of June. The June ineeting of the Women's Institute is announced for Friday afternoon, June 8that the Parish Hall. An important feature of the session will be to secure -^secretary to replace Jul?. Cheerington who has resigned.oo A. Mc_. Fletcher of Nelson, Dominion fruit inspector; was here on an official visit Friday. In the ten years he has been on the work at Creston he cannot recall so heavy a 4Cset" of earlv tree fruits as in evidence this year. Mr. and Mrs. W. P. Stark got away on Saturday' to- near Victoria, where they will reside for at least the next year, having leased .their Crestoii ranch to Ogilvie Wills'-of Victoria* who took possession at the end of the ;week. Mr. Bush has just taken a. lease on the Mead ranch for a term of three years and gets possesion on June 1st. Mr. and Mrs. ~J. Davidson Mead are returning to Fernie to reside. S. Trombley has given a three-year lease to his ranch beyond the cemetery to Dong Barney*. Fred Ben ham had no difficulty in getting the decision over _. _ewis of Kitchener in the eight round bout thev fought at Cranbrook on May 23i-d. The local welter had not only the staying powet but made the best atl round ring appearance and the decision in his favor was popular with the crowd. At the communion service at the Presbyterian Church on Sunday morning 17 names were added to the membership roil, most of them being received on profession of faith. The attendance at the service was very .large and Rev. J. A. James .delivered a most approproate address for such an occ&ssioi). At the last meeting of Creston Masonic "Lodge Major Mallnndaine was the unanimous choice for delegate to the Grand Lodge whichrTSonvenes at New "WeBtminNter" on June 21st. At the last annual "session the major was elevated to. the office of grand senior deacon and the local brethern are looking for further promotion for him this year. ��������� Following a brief heat wave at the middle of last week cloudy -and showery weather has prevailed ever si nee. While the showers have been spasmodic and account for rather ligght rainfall tbe moisture supply is abound- ant and all small fruits are looking better than for some years back at this time of year. ��������� The Ladies' Guild of Christ Church experienced a slight falling off at their annual 24th of May -fixture, the Country Fair, which features the sale of sewing cooking and home produce, along with the serving of refreshments. This year's intake was in the neighborhood of $00.' which is slightly less than the proceeds of the same event a year ago. The men of Christ Church tried nut out their hand at money raising on the evening of the Queen's Birthday at a dance ini the Parish Hall which will net them about $15. The crowd was smaller than -usual due to thei short notice given of the affair. The jxiusic was by Miss Phvllis Small and, Al. Lidgate, and was favorably commented upon by all the dancers. Miss Rose Cherrington got home on Monday from Victoria, where shehas been attending Normal School since last fall. In the final examinations she took a creditable pass in all subjects and stood well up inv the list of successful candidates. She was one of Six in almost 209 candidates to secure diptomis in cooking. In drawing her standing was equally good. Miss Vida Gobbett, whose marriage is announced for early June was guest of honor- at a miscellaneous shower at the home of Miss Edna Holmes on Monday; night' last, and again on Wednesday Mrs. Percy Boffey was hostess at a linen shower in her honor. Both functions were attended by numerous friends of the bride elect and were much enjoyed by all. Rev. A. J. Doull. bishop of Kootenay. paid Creston a visit on Sunday preaching at the morning service and in the evening conferring the rite of confirmation on a class of eight candidates which was, followed by a" ti mely address to the candidates... . Large congregations were out for. both services. During his stay he was a guest of Rev. H. and Mrs. Varley at the .rectory. B.C. Players Club presented the Bern- hard Shaw comedy in four acts. "You Never Can Tell," under the auspices of the Women's Institute. The effer- was hardly as popular as their in r,.Pim Passes By" of last year, the last act of this year's comedy being almost totally ���������>ut of harmony with tfee^preeedtngactS; which were certain ly mirth provoding. Between the acts Miss Frances Knott and Capt. Crompton were heard in vocaK numbers, the... latter's rendering of the popular ballad.
