New Plan for Collection of High School

Fees.

Ratepayers w i l l ^be delighted to learn that there is. every prospect of another reduction i n school taxes. A t a meeting of the school board held last night the estimates as.pre­pared by the secretary were care­fu l ly examined and are now ready to be submitted to the municipal coun­ci l . On these estimates are based the school m i l l rate for the current year. About $2,500 levied last year remained unexpended and this w i l l be taken into consideration i n making the 1925 levy. The net sum required from ratepayers w i l l be but l i t t le over $14,000 while last year the net levy was $16,000. The school rate was one mi l l lower i n 1924 than the year previous and there is every probability of a further reduction of at least another m i l l .

Arrangement has been made; wi th the principal of the high school to collect the high school fees. H e w i l l issue official receipts to the pupils as they pay.

Associated Growers of B . C . , L t d . m a news letter to The Review-re­ports :

Directors of the Associated Growers of Br i t i sh Columbia, L imi ted have completed a session lasting from Jan­uary 27th to January 30th, during which the operations of the season have been reviewed and in 1 the light of the experience of the past two years', several important changes1 i n \ organization and- operating • methods were decided upon. '•

The : business, of the Associated be­ing; p r imar i ly and' solely the market­ing of the products' óf its- members, in theiinterest of greater efficiency it-is felt- that the direction' and control of operations should; be moré largely concentrated in the sales department. Toi .sel l . the product' to the: best pos­sible; advantage; is the; one function of-.the Associated and al l its activities must be regulated to conform to that purpose; '

W i t h this end in view, the board decided to -abo l i sh the position of general manager, and make a i r de­partments^ responsible -tp: the presi­dent. M r ; D ; M c N a i r has been ap­pointed'- ge t í é r a l - sá l e s manager. Mr.* Basil.* Steuart w i l l - remain with the Associated-'acting as assistant, to-the general ' sales manager, and in M r . M c N a i r ' s absence taking the duties o f that office. • "~

Standardizing of Grade and Pack It has been increasingly apparent

during the last two seasons that much remains- to be done in- the' way of securing uniformity of grade and' re­l iabi l i ty of our product before real success in marketing can be attained. It is generally conceded, and i t has been the experience • of similar , or­ganizations, t h a t this can ; best be ac­complished under central control of packing operations. This, however, appears to be impracticable at the present time under our local condir tio'ns, and the desired results must be secured as far as possible in some other way.'

The marketing agreement gives' to central powers to issue rulos and re­gulations covering tho grading, pack-n'g and handling of tho crop and to

onfbrcq tho samo. The management has boon instructed to uso these pow­ers to the fullest oxtont and by the appointment of a' supervisor of pack­ing 1 houses establish a system of su­pervision over operations which it is hopod w i l l accomplish tho dosirod result.

The hort icul tural branch of thé pro-, vincial department of agriculture is again according growers the op­portunity to hold in their district pruning schools of three days dura­t ion at a fee of $1.00 per. pupil . Eight, pupils" must bé guaranteed and the classes, are l imited to sixteen.

These schools conducted by compe-,tent' ; instructors, have; proved, very valuable to growers in past years: in helping them, to formulate correct methods' and systems of pruning their trees and small fruits."

To' further assist where a three day class cannot be arranged; the depart­ment w i l L p u t on a one day demonstra­tion at any point, under a qualified instructor, . free to those interested.

A s pruning methods are changing Somewhat f rom time to ' time as new ideas are advanced, and the trees are reaching different;.stages,.in their growth, there -is always'. something to be learned.

Tree graf t ing and other pro'pagat-' i . igmethods are also taken up at-these schools arid demonstrations,, which is of; the greatest importance where the inferior and unsuitable varieties are being eliminated and changed over to bettor meet with the market' re­quirements.

Growers should avail themselves of these demonstrations early,' as those can best bo arranged during the win-tor and onrly spring.

O n . the subject of the - breakdown i i n . Jonathans and apportionment, of j losses thus occasioned, the Associated news' letter states:

Jonathan Breakdown The breakdown that has been very

prevalent in : Jonathan apples and to some extent in other varieties, has, presented a serious problem for cen­tral to determine. If the defect had been general and the result ing losses distributed proportionately over : all;? shipments the provincial season pool would have apportioned the loss equit- j ably to a l l growers. But , there • has . been a marked: variat ion i n the .ex­tent to which i t developed i n differ-;;: ent districts,: shipments f rom some,; locals showing practically no_loss , r in l

others a very small percentage, while) in a few districts the loss has been very heavy.

Under these circumstances i t was not-; considered equitable that any district should be asked to share losses occasioned- by imperfect f r u i t ; shipped.by other locals. It was, there­fore, decided: that . the losses due,to; shrinkage f rom this cause should be borne by each local in so- far as they apply to : f ru i t shipped; by that local; In ; coming to this decision the board has been governed.by.the broad pr in­ciple of equity involved, a principle that; is set forth in the book of rules and regulations covering the point at issue.

It is understood that the adjust­ment with respect to loss on Jona­thans greatly improves the position for local growers. There was very li t t le loss here from breakdown and not more than one cent a box w i l l be chai'ged back to the Summerland Co-operative because of claims under this head; Other districts are not so fortunate. One local, i t is said, w i l l lose 20 cents a box on Jonathans.

T H E HOSPITAL BOARD. Additions made to the original number of directors as

prescribed by the constitution of the Summerland Hospital Society, have made the board unwieldy because of numbers. In addition to appointees of the society, there are representa­tives of the provincial government and three representatives of the municipality.

For a group of fifteen to deal with all the details seems quite unnecessary. An executive of three or five at the most could efficiently and more expeditiously handle much of the detail. To these could be entrusted the management of the institution. They could receive their .instructions from and makes reports to the directors quarterly or semi-annually.

As at present constituted, members of the board, realizing their superfluity of numbers, are'inclined to absent themselves from regular monthly meetings, a practice which destroys efficiency and kills interest and enthusiasm. With a com­mittee of three chosen from their numbers as managers, and quarterly meetings, the affairs of the institution could be carried on in a more business like way.

Joke's on Dad The whole fami ly owns the car.

That is, when the car is idle i t is mother's car, when i t is in use it is the children's car, and when disabled or with a tire down i t is dad's car.

A b ig cougar gave an unwelcome shock to Mrs . H . H . Mi tche l l , whose) home is about a mile east of Sica-mous, when i t went right up to the back door of the home, invaded the children's playground, . and snapped up her dog. Hi t t ing the dog with one of its powerful claws, the cou­gar split its head open and carried it a w a y to an adjoining h i l l .

Tracks were followed to the spot where the cougar had enjoyed his breakfast—he left only a few'bones and scattered hide. Two other dif­ferent cougar tracks were discovered on the tr ip, one of a young cougar.

SUMMERLAND BOYS WIN IN DEBATE

No.

H O W M U C H MUST H E PAY? it's no joke—much too complicated for that—and it

lacks all the interest of a cross word puzzle. To figure out how much he must remit'to the government to obtain a renewal of his motor licence, the owner of an automobile has as much figuring, to do as the well-to-do citizen who has an income tax to pay—even more so—-enough, certainly,, to require the ser­vices'of that proverbial legal genius resident in Philadelphia

First, the motor owner must recall whether that old boat of.his cost him $1500 or more, or less than that figure. Then he must ascertain the age of the car, for according to the age deductions must be made from the original cost, on the theory probably that an old car is easy on the roads or knows the laws better and is less expense to the attorney-general's de partment. Having ascertained that his car cost originally §1500, if it is five years old 70 per cent is deducted from the price leaving 450. The next thing to do is to learn the weight of the car. Finding it to weigh 2400 this figure is added to the 450. The next move, in following the complicated for­mula prescribed by the provincial authorities, is to multiply the total of these two figures by 90. Why that figure was chosen we can not suggest. Having done this he must insert a decimal point in front of the fourth figure from the right. No, we're not done yet—he then deducts 25 per cent from the resulting figures. To this he adds bank exchange—-he has to guess at that—and makes out his cheque.

Because Vancouver draws from Cal i fornia where i t can get sweet potatoes in mixed cars a l l the year round. If we give the city of Vic to r ia 3 cars per annum, i t gives a total of 20 cars, 10 for B . C . and 10 to 12 for the other two pro­vinces.

TIME FOR A C H A N G E . One purpose of the formula devised some years ago by

which a motor licence fee is figured out, was to compel the owner .of the larger car to pay more than the man who ran a light one. That was before the days of the tax on gasoline. For the purpose of having this absurdly complicated system removed from the statutes, automobile owners approached the government suggesting the tax on gasoline instead. They got the gasoline tax, but the other still remains, one more move having been added, namely the deduction of the 25 per cent,

As the heavier vehicle now pays the higher tax through its greater consumption of gas, there is no apparent reason why a nominal flat rate only should not be charged as licence fee. In California the fee is five dollars a year, which would bo quite enough for British Columbia, now that motor vehicles pay a substantial tax on gasoline,

OKANAGAN PEACE ARCH. Orovillo Gazotto.—At its mooting Saturday night llodgos Post 84 of

Tho Amorican Logion endorsed tho proposal and oiTorod its co-oporntion in tho movomont started by tho Wonntchoo Post to oroct a ponco arch ovor tho highway nt the International boundary three miles north of Orovillo.

Tho boundary lino running for threo thousand miles botwoen Canada and tho Unltod States might woll ho classed as ono of tho most romnrk-ahlo things of all tlmo. In tho old world tho geographical linos marking tho territorial houndnrios of nations have through nil ages boon dotted by military garrisons and fortifications in anticipation ot wnr,

It is entirely fitting that tho boundary ho marked with poaco nrohos and It is a commendable movomont on tho part of Tho Amorican Logion. Thoro is no moro desirable place for such a monument thnn on tho Oknn-ogan-Cnrihoo Trail whore it will ho soon by thousands of tourists onch

potatoes in a very limited way to prairie points. I had to turn down order after order. The Associated Growers who handled a portion of my crop informed me at that time that I was not giving them as much in a week as they could use in a day. The demand was there but the crop was not. This condition, of course, did not apply so strongly at the end of September when the U. S.A. stuff came on the market, which it usually does around the first week in September.

*I will quote.the prices on sweets prevailing this present week in Van­couver: 45 pound baskets were around $6.50. San Francisco quotations re­ceived over the radio by myself were as follows: Jerseys 11c per pound; Arkansas Nancy Halls $4.50 per box. These prices are those usually pre­vailing at this time of year on stor­age sweets.

We can store sweets here as easily' as they can in tho States. Tho writ­er has at present 50 apple boxes of stored and cured sweets for this com­ing season's seed. Figuro this at pre­sent Vancouver prices and that is a market that can bo supplied from the Okanagan all winter in mixed applo cars,

P.O. MONEY ORDERS ARE COSTING MORE

Canadian post offices have slightly increased the commission on money orders. The' new scale wont into i I effect on the first of January.

In the past, orders up to ten dol-1 lars have cost five cents. This com­mission is now chargeable on money

In conclusion, I might say that '. agree with Mr, Grant that tho con sumption is limitod. Tho demand, however, is larger than tho consump tlon, if wo can supply thorn spread ovor tho year. Also tho land where sweet potatoes can bo grown in B.C> is limited, probably moro so than j can fill that demand. I thoroughly! agree with Mr, Grant's remarks nhoutr

Liverpool Apple Market Of Growing Importance

mproved Handling Facilities Attract Enormous Amount Of Business, Says Official.

The ' growing importance of Liver ­pool as an apple distributing centre is stressed in a recent report by E d ­win Smith, f rui t marketing- specialist of the Uni ted States department of agi'iculture, who is making a study of Engl i sh and other European mar­kets wi th a view to further develop­ment of the export trade for A m e r i ­can apples.

In 1921, according to M r . Smith, on ly ' l i gh t quantities of. fruit of any kind and' practically no apples were being handled' through .L ive rpoo l , whereas at" the present time Liver ­pool is a point for apple distribution of the first magnitude andi according to the Canadian ' f ru i t trade commis­sioner, is the main- centre of apple distribution- i n ' Great Br i t a in : The volume of apple sales in the latter part of November was practically at the peak. wi th , supplies coming f rom the Pacific Northwest; Ontario, N o v a Scotia, New England, New Y o r k 'and-- V i r g i n i a . Oranges from Jaffa and Spain also were arr iving in-'-considerable quantity and the last of the Spanish- grapes were ' be ing sold'. ' •

Improved Facilities , The erection"a few years ago of

a f ru i t office building and modern sales .room by one of- the large fac­tors in- -Liverpool has undoubtedly had â great deal to do wi th the de­velopment of the trade there," M r . Smi th says. ;"A11 apples are handled through this sales room- and by Jan­uary 1 citrus fruits which now are sold through a sales room i n another bui lding w i l l be s o l d i n a smaller sales room i n the same building in which apples are marketed. This concen­trat ion should do much to facilitate the rapid and efficient handling of f ru i t for sale i n Liverpool .

Displaying Samples ~ "The method of showing the sam­

ples of apples to be sold' at auction differs:radically -from that employed i n this country, and contains a touch of the dramatic. P r io r to the sale, the apples are brought to the base­ment, which is bèlow t h è • sales room; and; the. tops of the barrels removed. They are brought f rom the basement to the sales room upon a- double alternating l i f t . - F o r large lots two

samples are shown; for small lots only one, each sample consisting of two barrels. 'One of the barrels is brought to the sales room and an at­tendant sways it to and fro under a huge flood light so that the pack can be seen. Meanwhile attendants fling the second barrel up on the edge of the wel l of t h e ' l i f t wi th a whi r l ' and flourish and cataract its entire contents out and down into a huge basket, much as a soda clerk would throw a mi.'k shake from cup to glass. The , basket, which is very broad and shallow, is then raised on the l i f t and placed under the flood l ight for examination by the "buy­ers. The sale having be<|.i completed, the empty barrel is jammed down upon" the basket of frui t and taken below into the basement as the at­tention of the buyers i s drawn into the next "inside-out" exhibition.

Boxed Apples

"Boxed apples are not treated quite so drastically nor so dramatic­al ly . A couple of boxes are placed on display wi th lids removed and t h è wraps pulled from perhaps half of the top layer. F r u i t that has been opened-is placed on one side of the basement and sold to a regular trade of peddlers who purchase i t at prices ru l ing a few shillings per barrel less than the price paid for unbroken ! packages.

"Considerable barreled stock has been arr iv ing i n Liverpool 'slack' and selling for from 23 to 92 cents less than stock showing a good tight pack. On November 26, over 50 per cent of the barreled" apples offered for sale at auction in Liverpool were catalogued as 'slack.' I f a tap of the hatchet' on the barrel-head' causes a hollow sound, the barrel is listed, as 'slack'; ' otherwise the pack is consid­ered to be tight. The catalogue does not' indicate the degree of slackness; although i t is probable that buyers in most instances have a pretty fair idèa of this, as i t related to different | lots. In so-called' 'slack' barrels, the frui t is from half an inch to four inches from' the head. • Some efforts are' being made to have the relative slackno:^ of the different samples in­dicated^ in order- to arrive at a more equitable reduction" in 1 'price for this ••fault."''" • '• . • I

weeds is practical and feasible under irrigation but not where alfalfa is being established on non-irrigated lands or where a • deficiency of- i r r i ­gation.water is l ikely to occur. The seed bed must be firm, particularly so on light, dry 'soi ls , so as to bring the seeds and small particles of soil in close contact and ensure good ger­mination and early development.

only be excused on two counts, one being that the l iquor problem is a burning question and the other the fact that the position taken is just i ­fied. The only cri t icism I have to offer is that the editorial does not go far enough and fails to locate the real origin of the present trouble. When the writer claims that "what the people wanted when they voted for government control was that and nothing more" he is of course abso­lutely correct, but when he goes on to say that this condition would have been met by the sale of l iquor in government stores at a price just enough to cover, the cost of handling, he is wide of the mark. Government control does not mean government sale, and the theory that X govern­ment should go into the retai l trade in l iquor or any other commodity, is fundamentally wrong. It is beside the question to argue that sale with out profit would be satisfactory—it would doubtless be very much so to the buyer,, who is at present paying exorbitant prices for what he is en­titled to buy at reasonable rates. Bu t the real point is that, in undertaking the retail ing of l iquor the government has stepped out of its proper domain and has, in consequence brought about a state "of affairs which the editor of "The Commoner" very r ightly brands as a farce and a dis­grace.

Now let us go a step farther and try to locate the source of this muddy stream. To do this, let us cast our minds back some ten or twelve years, and recall the fact that at that pre-prohib'ition period the growth of rea l temperance was a fact which was noticeable by any impartial person who had lived long enough to make comparisons. Then let us remember that, even i n those bad old saloon days, there were laws on .the statute books of every pro­vince which provided for r ig id super­vision of the l iquor traffic, and that, where unsatisfactory conditions pre­vailed, the fault was due to lax en­forcement of those laws. In spite of a l l such drawbacks, however, i t 'is an indisputable fact that" temperance

different. Canada as a modern Esau, defrauded of its birthright by the wiles of a latter day Rebekah, offers a spectacle- which can hardly appeal to sober minds. A n d i t is rather sig­nificant that this w i ' d talk is not heard across the line. The United States would gain nothing by annex­ing a country which is already as open to American capital as to that of other lands, and i t is exceedingly doubtful whether the contingency is ever considered by our neighbors, notwithstanding a certain old time re­mark, by ex-President Taft concern­ing "the parting of the ways." A good illustration of the foolish talk indulged in is found in a recent re­mark by " M a r y E l l e n " to the effect that " I f there is going to be any an nexation done, i t is we that are going to annex the Uni ted States"—-an ut­terance which is: just as wi ld in the other extreme.

There are two factors ignored by those who talk on this subject. The first is the unquestionable loyalty of Canadians to the empire, and the-se­cond is the question as to what Great Br i ta in would have to say in the event of attempted annexation.

News of the sudden death of Olive, wife of John McLaughlan, came as a great shock to residents of Peach land, the former home of both M r . and Mrs . McLaughlan.

M r . and Mrs . McLaughlan . have been l iv ing at Camp Borden) Ont., where Mr . McLaughlan has been with the Canadian A i r Service. John had been given a higher position at V i c ­toria Island, Ottawa, and they were just making the move and Mrs . Mc­Laughlan and the children stopped at Toronto w h i e John went on to Ot­tawa. When the telegram came to Teachland Mrs . Ferguson, her mother, was in Vancouver, and she hurried east from , there.

The news of the passing away of Mrs . McLaughlan came as a very great shock to her many friends here. Olive, as she is perhaps best known

other exercises of ingenuity afford delight certainly as great as the lat­est diversion, and have the additional merit of l i terary sk i l l . Here is a limerick which plays on the vagaries of pronunciation:

sigh Supposing Fai ry land went dry! The heather cups would droop and

die, . Or languish unemployed instead Supposing Fai ry land went dry If nectar were prohibited."

M r . and Mrs . D. Hunter left on the Wednesday evening boat after a week's visit here wi th M r : Hunter 's parent's. They planned to visi t V i c -oria before returning to their Alber ta home and may call at Peachland on their return journey.

WOMAN EXPERT TO VISIT HERE

Will Join Father Now Visiting At Dale Home—Employed

By Government.

A n expert employed by the Do­minion government, who w i l l visit Summerland this month is Miss Helen G . Campbell, Dominion government milk demonstrator. Miss Campbell is a niece of Mrs . Thos. Dale and is now at .Hotel Vancouver demonstrat­ing the food value of milk, attend­ing a convention and also preparing an exhibition.

Her father, M r . Peter Campbell, who accompanied her from the east, came in from Vancouver Saturday morning and w i l l remain here for two . months wi th his sister-in-law, Mrs. Thos. Dale. Miss Campbell w i l l be here after the fifteenth.

Her coming to Summerland should •,be an excellent opportunity for the Women's Institute to obtain some valuable and interesting information. While her program does not include any work here, Miss Campbell w i l l no doubt.be glad to accede to any re­quest that the institute might make. If such an idea is entertained, it w i l l probably be advisable to com­municate with her at Hote l V a n ­couver so that she might have time to make any necessary arrangements.

The members of the Ladies' A i d held their regular monthly meeting on Thursday at the home of Mrs . Lyons, the president Mrs . F . Young in the chair, and Mrs . Wil l iams i n charge of refreshments. There was a f u l l attendance, and a busy pro­gram was laid up for the year, sev­eral committees being appointed to take care of the various sections of work.

A whist drive was held in the Uni ty Club on Fr iday evening i n ' aid of the club funds. There was a good attendance, and the pleasant gather­ing resulted in a material help to the finances.

Owing to a blinding snowfall at the time of the Sicamous arrival on Wednesday morning, she somewhat miscalculated her distance and ran into the south side of the wharf, smashing half a dozen of the fender-dolphins and-cutt ing through the 12 inch beam supporting the runners.

The usual service was taken on Sunday afternoon by Rev. H . J . A r ­mitage, the attendance being fair in view of the bad state of the roads. Mrs. Lyons presided at the organ.

The rapid thaw which set in on Sunday made short work of the snow in most places by Tuesday'morning, and gave the road foreman and his men a busy time in keeping running water in bounds. Deep gullies were washed out in several places, the water coming down very fast.

The regular monthly meeting of the Women's Institute was held in the Un i ty Club- on Tuesday after­noon, Mrs . W . J . Robinson presiding. Fol lowing the usual business of the meeting, M r .

"It pays me to take the Review for the saving I make through read­ing the advertisements, i f for nothing else." Thus remarked a subscriber at a chance meeting .with the editor this week. Questioned as to what he meant, he said, " I . w i l l give no names but as an instance' a certain local merchant advertised an article which I have wanted.. The next day I went to his store and bought and in doing so saved enough money to pay for my subscription to The Review sev era! years in advance."

That i t pays to advertise is a well known truth. No less true is the statement that it pays- every citizen to read and watch closely the adver tisements of our local business peo­ple.

nation of M r . C. P . Nelson, and the employment by the board of the ser­vices o f the; chartered accountants, Messrs. Crehan, Mouat and Company; Only an operating statement and bal­ance sheet are given, the same as supplied to hospital boards at Pen­ticton, Kelowna and other Va l ley hos­pitals.

F r o m the operating statement i t i w i l l be- noted that there-is, a'-loss on the year's - operations of $1,028.39, this being due to $l;700.38 charged to depreciation, as • against a deficit' of $3,448.71 in ' 1923 shown i n revenue and expenditure account for that year, although, the amount of depreciation charged was almost the. same.

One reason for the decrease in revenue can be attributed: to the lack of patients which has been very marked during the last part of the year 1924, and another reason, is the rapid fa l l ing off of the amount of government aid granted. A s an in ­stance, I might mention that i n the year 1922, 309 patients were admit­ted, and in 1923 346, whereas in 1924 only 219 patients wont through the hospital, a decrease of about 33 per, cent. ; Most of last year's pa­tients wore short term ones. The number of days for which wo receiv­ed government grant was 3 ,588- in 1922, 2,719 in 1928 and 2,005 i n 1924, a decrease of about 40 per cent, from 1922, tho result boing that pur revenue was materially decreas­ed, whilst our overhead expense was nearly tho same* as in J^io previous years. Tho nursing staff has boon reduced to a minimum having duo regard to offlcioncy.

Tho go'vornmont grant in 1022 was $.4,470.37, in 1023 it was $3,070.22 and in 1024 only $2,120.75, or In docroaso of about 50 por cont from 1022.

Tho ayerago daily, cost of pationts during tho yonr has boon $4.88, an incroaso of 83 por cont, ovor tho daily cost of 1022 and 1028, which is con-

al observer. It is only too: true our finances have need of considerable assistance from outside sources, this in spite of the strictest' economy we have endeavored to practice. On the other hand, hospitals never, produce dividends even in the most prosperous of times, and must at a l l times even at,the lowest ebb of, prosperity main tain' the recognized standard of effi ciency. This standard, has not been lowered i n Summerland Hospital . I t must be grat i fying to every one; how­ever remotely, concerned, to feel that there is within; their reach the means to cope with-serious emergencies as :

efficiently and promptly as in any in ­stitution many times our size. This

J . Shepherd submitted some figures showing that egg prices are propor­tionately higher than feed prices as compared wi th a year ago. In Janu­ary of 1924 feed cost h im .66 cent per day per bird , in January this year .84 cent. He received i n Janu­ary 48 cents for eggs as compared with: 34 cents a year ago. M r : Shep­herd's f i f ty pullets laid- an average of 198.3 eggs per b i rd i n twelve months, and gave him a profit of oyer two dollars per bi rd , wi th , eggs at an average price of 27.56 cents.

Difficulty of disposing of cockerels and old hens was referred to by the president, who stated that the asso ciation should investigate the possi­bilities of canning surplus stock.

Make up Shortage on Water Rate.

S A Y IRRIGATION R A T E S H O U L D B E RAISED

With Two Hundred and Fifty Dollars as Basis

Land Re.-Valued.

AGAIN ENJOYING FULL TELEPHONE SERVICE

Demands by residents of Trout -Creek' Point for a general revision of assessment for - taxa t ion purposes were made at the si t t ing of the court of revision on Monday.

Speaking for the delegation, G. Thornber pointed out the large de­ficit on the municipal i r r iga t ion ' sys­tem, which, he reminded the court, was made up by taxes on a l l the land wi th in the municipal i ty. A s Trout Creek derived no benefit from the municipal system, i t was very un­fair that land owners in that district

• should .be taxed to make up the de­ficit. * ' '

• Duncan Woods, one of the delega­tion, interposed on a number, of oc­casions the remark that the i r r iga­tion rates should be increased. If this were done, he said, there would be no need for Trout Creek to make any request for special consideration. Make $250 per

Acre -the Basis A f t e r much discussion, i t was fin-,

a l ly agreed that the basis for assess­ment, which is $ 3 0 0 per acre through the municipal i ty generally, should be fixed ..at $ 2 5 0 . in the. Trout . Creek

Representatives of Trou t Creek land owners, who were present were W . V e r i t y , F . R., Gar t re l l , H / T h o r n -thwaite, M . Tait , G . Thornber, D . Woods, S . F . Sharp, S. Kennedy, J . H . Treffry, 0 . Smith, F . -vS^rMiller and H . Smith. -

. Speaking further, on* the subject, M r . Thornber pointed out that for many years he and-his neighbors had been paying toward an annual deficit on the municipal .system. A t the same time they had their own com­munity system to maintain and op­erate. They were asking for only what was reasonable and right. In

• earlier years assistance had been given them through contributions to their own system from municipal re­venue, but this had boon pronounced i l legal .

Revise All Trout - -, Creek Assessments

The outcome was the decision of the court of, revision to revise, tho assessments in the whole Trou t Crook Point area. This work took up tho greater part of tho day.

P. R . Gartroll 's 10-acro lot on tho shoro oast of tho Evans proporty was reduced from $ 2 7 5 0 to $ 2 3 5 0 and two ncro lots immediately to tho south, belonging to h im, wore reduc­ed from $ 3 5 0 to $ 2 5 0 . Assessments on othor ncro l o t s , . N O B . 1 8 to 2 2 , woro sustalnod at $ 2 4 0 ns wore lots 2 3 to 2 0 . No . 8 0 , a corner lot, was cut from $ 2 7 5 to $ 2 0 0 , Tho main Gartrol l property made up of 4 0 ncros on tho flat nnd 1 2 ncreB on tho hillside, about two of which woro usable, was reduced from $ 1 4 , 0 0 0

. to $ 1 2 , 5 0 0 . •

Tho camping Bito at tho mouth of Trout Crook, owned by Oliver Smith, containing 1 .02 ncros, which had boon assessed at $ 5 5 0 was roducod to $ 8 0 0 , Mr. Smith's 5 .3 ncroB oast of tho Gar t ro l l proporty, valued on tho ro l l at $ 1 2 5 0 , wnB roducod to $ 1 2 0 0 nnd lo t N o . 3 5 , ono ncro, from $ 8 0 0 to $ 2 5 0 , Throe othor ncro lots, N O R , 1 5 , 1 0 nnd 1 7 , bolonglng to Mr, Smith, woro each roducod from $ 2 7 5 to $ 2 5 0 ,

It was not until late Saturday evening that connection with central -was given all those phones which went dead on Mon­day morning of last week. Sub­scribers thus inconvenienced were those who were served through a buried cable, the punc­ture in which was found near T. B. Young's corner. A section of cable had to be removed and a new piece put in. This neces­sitated . the 'splicing of many wires and making two joints, in the leaden casing.:

It demands a large capital in­vestment for a number of years be­fore there is any return, and unlike the other forms of agriculture, it does not supply the farmer with any important part of his l iv ing . The fruit grower is, therefore, more en­tirely dependent on-the market price of his product for his very existence.

It has been demonstrated beyond question that Br i t i sh Columbia can grow fruit that cannot be excelled

COURTESY T O T H E PRESS. Under the above heading Kamloops Sentinel last week

dealt with a subject to which editors hesitate to refer. .The Sentinel says: < -

"Newspaper publishers do not care to remind the public of courtesies neglected; the press itself offers so many of these, however, that when it is ignored in ordinary social amenities and when there is, in some cases, no regret ex­pressed for lack of civility, the time arrives for a gentle reminder to those who should not require to be taken to task."

The Sentinel then proceeds to gently chide some of the local organizations who are remiss in making the customary provision for attendance of a representative of the press at their functions. Neglect, rather than parsimony, is the attri buted cause, although, in one or two case, the Sentinel sug­gests the action had been deliberate.

Continuing, the editor says, "The press surely cannot be expected to pay for doing its duty, which means bringing the event in question to the notice of a large number of readers.

. . . This is embarrassing to. the press, which does not care to crave what is surely coming to it."

The press, points out the editor, in order to report events, should neither have to beg free admission at the door nor pay for admission.

Unfortunately, we have on one or two occasions Jn the past, felt compelled to refer to this subject. In the larger communities the press probably comes up against fewer ama­teurs. The experienced person will make early provision for representation of the press at any function in order that it may be given publicity, usually much desired,

Y O U MIGHT M E E T A FOOL; On a road at the foot of the Rockies is a sign that reads:

"Danger—Sharp Curve—You Might Meet A Fool." Such a sign is calculated to make a driver sit up and take notice. The latter sees at almost every sharp turn a notice to proceed . ... with caution, or to blow his horn, and comes to be little i m . ^ b u r n i n ' t » cinders, ho shoots a pistol

pressed by them. Ho has confidence in his ability to avoid running into another car. But if there is a fool in the other car the efforts of the most skilful driver to escape may be futile.

There would be far fewer automobile mishaps if every driver would boar constantly in mind the possibility that there may bo a fool ahead, not only on sharp curves, but on stretches of straight road. It is unwise to assume that onch car on the highway is in charge of an experienced driver who knows the traffic rules and will obey them. You may think that inasmuch us you are kooping on your side of the road there is no danger of running your car at a high rate of speed. But you might moot a fool who will not stick to his side of tho road.

Few, perhaps, of our citizens can recal l the world-famous Christie Minstrels, but there must be many

jmen and women, f rom the Old Coun­t r y at any rate, who -well remember the Moore and Burgess Minstrels who so faithfully carried oh the tradit ion. In* the mind's eye one can s t i l l see the fearful ly and' wonderfully attir­ed "Corner M e n " led by the cele­brated " P o n y " Moore himself; t h é tiers of impassive black facesj sur­mounting gleaming shirt fronts, which

filled the stage ; and, i n the centre, .the interlocutor, that suave and pol­ished gentleman, whose sense of hu­mor seemed completely atrophied. Who that heard them can forget the basso prof undo, who kept ' his voice in his boots; the male alto who had his in the top of his head; and the old negro melodies writ ten by that unfortunate genius Stephen.,. Foster, wi th , their close harmonies and simple sentiment? - It was a very sophisti­cated parent who did not enjoy i t a l l . as< much as the. boy who is now, let us hope, a not.,too' sophisticated parent.

Oh we l l ! I t is a far c ry to Picca­d i l ly and, were i t n ot, the St. James' H a l l has long been swept away wi th many another London landmark. But "let ' us dry. the ready tear," Summerland has a Rialto, i f i t has no St. James' H a l l . Furthermore, i t has a ' 'B lack Face Troupe" of its own,- which refuses much longer to blush unseen, through its burnt cork. .. ^

H Y M N S A N D THEIR y/RITERS

"MY FAITH LOOKS UP TO THEE"

It is not unusual for, a hymn-writer to produce his finest piece of work at the commencement of his career. This.was so in the case of iRay Palmer, the author of tho beau­tiful hymn "My faith looks up to Thee." It is considored <by many to

ibo tho greatest hymn , over written • by an American.

- Ray Palmer was born. at Little 'Compton, Rhode Island,. U.S.A., on November' 12, 1808... It was chiefly duo to the efforts of his pastor, Rov. Sorono Dwight, that young Palmor docidod to enter a college. For two yonrs ho clorkod in a dry goods store Jn Boston, but owing to Dr. Dwlght's interest ho studiod at Andovor Acad­emy, and lator attended <Yalo College, from which hp graduated in 1880; Ho immediately wont to Now York to toach in a young IndioB' collogo, . and it was at that time—when ho was only,twonty-two years of ago-— that tho hymn.was writton,

Young Palmor was sitting in his own room following a custom of somo yoars' standing, namely, that of trying to oxpross in vorso his in normost foolings, A doop conscious

ness of his soul's needs came to him, and he,wrote the hymn thntjwas des-i tined .to take its place as a favorite1

in the hearts of Christian,people. He copied the verses from the loose shoot of paper upon which they had boon.first written, into a small mo-| rpeco bound - book, which ho was ac-j customed to carry in,his pocket and in, which, he had writton other versos and _ hymns. While ho frequently road ovor;tho vorses for his own dp votionnl life, there whs not tho sllsht, ost thought of showing thorn to apy-i ono elso, much loss of their use as,a hymn for public worship. !

Two yonrs after tho writing of tho vorsos, Ray Palmor mot tho fa mous musician, Dr, Lowell Maspn, on a busy street in Boston. Dr. Ma­son asked him if ho could furnish any-hymns for a now hymn and tune book thon in preparation. Tho* two mon stopped from • tho busy thorough-faro into a quiet storo, and young Palmor ahowod tho now famous hymn to Dr. Mason. When tho latter ronched his homo and had timo to oxamino tho hymn, ho was BO much! intorostod that ho at once composod tho tuno "OHvot," to which it has sinco boon almost univorsnlly Bung.

M r . Palmer became a Congregation­al minister. He was ordained in 1835 and held two pastorates, each one

i'for fifteen years. These wore at Bath, in Maine, and at Albany, New York , Af t e r retirement from pas­toral service Dr . Palmor. dovoted himself to hymn-writ ing, a n d , to translating hymns from tho La t in or­iginals which mado an ospocial ap-poal to him. Ho lived in a timo of storn theology, but his own heart led him to compose hymns in which tho tender noto predominated.

edly commented on the measure Most of them have. declared the amendment to be "vicious," "dras­t i c , " ' "un fa i r " andj "class legislation."

-. Lis ted among the,:commentsion the amendment is the -following article taken, from a .recent- issue of The Chicago Packer, ;0ne-A of the leading frui t and vegetable trade papers of America. Thé ideas expressed there­in may, i t is said, .be taken as indica­tive of. the opinions >held by those who have been -long engaged i n the frui t and produce business. The ar­ticle says:

Alleges Class" Action "Is the worm going" to turn? Is

common sense or enthusiasm to pre­vail? These ;.were - two questions asked The Packer man the other day when, a • well-known f ru i t : man , was discussing ! the legislation which has been, passed by state legislatures to assist co-operative enterprises.

I see that Br i t i sh Columbia is the i latest province to swing into line j with extreme legislation, ' added the fruit man. .'I note that that .province has passed a law whereby an indepen­dent dealer may be "f ined;any ïsum j up to $500 i f he approaches; a co­operative grower and asks him.for aril opportunity to handle^hisi crop. Some states have s imi la r - l aws , but they are a l l one-sided. ' ' ''

'Why shouldn't : the legislatures, and law-makers pass à ' s i m i l a r mea­sure making i t an offence for a co­operative- concern or. i a;?- co-operative association member to : approach the grower under - contractu to the inde­pendent, shipper? I ask [that question in a l l seriousness. Isn't ;it reasonable; to suppose that law-makers', should enact legislation , f o r . ; a l l ^the peoplei and riot , just~for a few,?,-., Whats i s saiice.for .the:,go^se. iS;,sai^e.,for tbe ga'nder. , ./.:

i t is fa i r ly easy to find their motive. a n d charmed—harmed—armed I don't know that the attorney-gen eral had this particular case in mind, but certainly his warning is amply justified by it.

"."There are many ex-ceptions to every

rule in which accident or good fortune seem to have played a great part in a boy's or a man's life, but in the main, real success is probably rarely obtained except through individual effort." In ad­dressing the students of Lower Can­ada College recently, E . W. Beatty, chairman and president of the Ca­nadian Pacific Railway, enumerated as qualities and attributes to ma­terial success, work, self-reliance coupled with modesty, loyalty; im­agination, humor, studied thought and human'kindness.

" I f I were to pick out for you the most admirable quality possessed by the students of this college, I would say-.that ,it is that of loyalty; loyal­ty to.your family, to your school, to your_ university, to your country and to yourself." The second in the long list of qualities which are admirable is imagination; dreams mean ideal­ism and idealism is often followed by constructive vision. Imagination enables a man to take out of life sometimes more than there is in it, Retain-as long as you can your faith in other men.

"The third quality that 1 would mention is self-reliance, and I think tha t . i t is probably one of the out standing characteristics of the, C a nadian. young men.". The field of athletics,.^Mr. Beatty considers as the most helpful contributor to the spirits "of self-reliance and- having cultivated¡V the out-doors spirit he would,-then bumor—pot

"cultivate a, sense of the harmful humor I one's ..back,

that only, takes delight in the.confusion" o r 'hu­miliation of others, but that humor which en­ables a man to laugh at himself and hold himself in proper .pro­portion, a man who sees . the bright ' s ide and communicates the brightness to others."

"Now, most of you," he, said, " w i l l , proceed from here to "a uni­versity and into a pro­fession, or maybe with­out the u n i v e r s i t 'y course into business, and you wil l want to succeed, and perhaps you would not mind my saying some of the

things that I have observed-- that contributed to a man's success.

" A t the outset come the qualities 1 have mentioned to you.because they are so/admirable in themselves. There are many and I can only men-: tion a few. I have mentioned self-reliance. Couple it with modesty— that fast disappearing virtue—and you have a combination. of inestim­able value to any boy starting in life.

"Now there is a word, a n . ugly word, which has a great deal to do with a boy's or a man's success— Work! . . . . This school and higher colleges can give you much. . They can teach you to think, study and analyze, but your education in it­self wil l not make you anything. This is a result which must come ;

from your own effort. Do your own thinking. Advise and consult with others, especially older and more experienced people.. Mental exercise is just as-good as, athletics if you are later to take your place in a contest where judgment and brains are your chief .equipment and not physical powers.

"The last quality I am. going to mention which helps a boy to suc­ceed Ms human kindness,!' Mr . Beat­ty said.. "Your own success wi l l never be retarded by a kindly and neighborly spiri t . ' Remember that you w i l l go much farther through the good will of others than you can

To look on the sunny side of every­thing, and make your optimism come true.

To thinkv.only the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best. '-•.-

To be just as enthusiastic about success to others, as you are about your own. ' . ' -

To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achieve­ments of the future. :

To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and to have a smile ready

. T o give so much t ime ' to the im­provement of yourself that you • have no timer- to criticize others.

Vigor is the main essential of these, because without it there can only bo failure in all other respects.

Notice to Fruit Growers Efforts are being made by manufacturers of Dry Lime-

sulphur Powder to displace the older and successful Liquid Limosulphur. ,

Dry Powdered Limosulphur is made by evaporating in vacuum the ordinary Liquid Limesulphur: it cannot be made any other way. In the drying some of it is converted to nn insoluble form of no benefit in spraying. It can, compete in cost only where the liquid preparation costs too much in freight chni'gos or tho primary cost is too high.

Liquid Limosulphur as sold in tho valley contains tho oquivolont of 200 lbs, of Dry Limosulphur per barrpl. Tho Liquid Limosulphur this season ,will cost tho consumer SIX CENTS por pound on tho dry basis allowing for tho return v

of tho container. Our company this year has installod more pormanont

equipment for manufacturing Limosulphur. Wo oxpoct noxt yoar to got tho cost to a point comparablo with Wonatchpo. Volumo of business is the determining factor in prlco: Won-atchoo sells twonty thousand barrols to our one thousand.

Should Dry Limosulphur displaco Liquid Limosulphur to any oxtont tho price of tho Liquid will go up instoad of down, —roducod volumo of business will sond it up;

SUMMERLAND WEATHER REPORT

The Angl ican service on Sunday was taken by M r . G . W. Cope in the absence of Rev. H . A . Solly, who was laid up with a very severe cold. His address was on the subject of prayer, the text being, "Teach us to pray." The anthem was "O worship the L o r d " (Thomas Smith), Mrs Languedoc presiding at the organ

The members of the Women's Aux­i l iary met at the home of Mrs. Steele on Fr iday, Mrs . Languedoc presid­ing." It was decided to have a cup­board made for the keeping of choir music and prayerbooks, and to ask for tenders. Mrs . Weaver read an account of W . A . work in the Mac­kenzie River district. Refreshments were served by the hostess.

On Monday afternoon Mrs . Jamie-son of The Women's International League, gave a lecture in the church under the auspices of the Women's Institute, her subject being the i m :

portance of training the new genera­tion along the paths of peace. The lecturer scored the tendency of pre­sent day moving pictures to glorify the gun-man, and claimed that this feature reacted on the youthful mind. She also contended that the- reign of lawlessness noticeable today could be traced to the demoralizing effect of war, and urged the striving.for inter­national friendship. A silver collec­tion was taken up to defray expenses.

Mr. Wilson Unanimously Chosen President of Re-

Organized Board Trade Board Revived After Period

of Dormancy—Will Alternate Meetings

M U S T P A Y UP 1923 IRRIGATION R A T E S

M . G . Wilson is the head of the Summerland Board of Trade and A . B . E l l io t t , vice-president, having been elected to these positions at a meet­ing- held last Thursday afternoon i n the' municipal hall . W . C. Kel ley , who has held the position of pres­ident for the past two years opened the meeting with the remark that the time had come to re-organize the board of trade after its being (more or less dormant for the past two years.

Elections of the new prejident and vice-president were unanimous, as was also that of the secretary, P . Knowles, who was re-elected to that position. Members of the new ex­ecutive are: W. C. Kel ley, C . J . Hud-dlestone, P . S. Roe, Rev. H . A . Sol ly and J . R . Campbell.

The annual membership fee was fixed at two dollars. Regular month­ly meetings w i l l be held alternately at Summerland^and West Summer-land.

Preparation of the material and the publishing of a much needed pamphlet for use in answering en­quiries and further advertising the community were delegated to the ex­ecutive.

M r . Ke l ley reported that some pro­gress was being made in connection with the establishment here of a cold storage and precooling plant.

The suggested removal of the war trophies from the hospital grounds occasioned much discussion by mem­bers of the G. W . V . A . and the direct­ors of the hospital present. Messrs Roe and Kel ley moved that a com­mittee be named to co-operate wi th the municipal council i n respect to a war memorial. This, was later amended on motion of Messrs Hud-dlestone and El l io t t that the pres­ident appoint a committee to so act when the municipal council expres­ses a desire for the assistance of such a committee. M r . Wilson named Messrs El l io t t , Solly, Roe and H u d -dlestone as that committee. .

W i l l i s Walter, of Walters, L t d . told the members of the handicap

, on the sale of frui t i n the northern parts of the province placed on i t by high express rates and asked some action from the hoard.

It was felt that anything the board might do would not result i n any i m provoment, hut that i t was a matter for the railway commission.

No i rr igat ion water w i l l be turned into those properties on which i r ­rigation rates for 1923 have not been paid. This action was unanimously agreed upon at the regular council meeting held on Fr iday last. The wish was expressed that the 1924 rates should also be demanded, but it was felt that under present cir­cumstances, i t might be too great a demand on some property owners to be forced to pay for the two years. Last year a similar action -was taken by the council wi th generally very satisfactory results,

land'and nearby districts and, perhaps, too, scarcity of ready cash with those who are sick may be contributing causes to the cutting down of the average number of days of service being sold each month by the Hospital Society, but,smay there not be other causes, and over which the board have a meas­ure of control which of course the,y do not have over the two reasons named, above. Eumors and current gossip receive scant attention from us, but'when current reports with respect to our hospital are seriously discussed—as they were informally recently—by members of our municipal council, and with seeming foundations for dissatisfaction, the matter cannot be passed over. It would appear from this discussion that re­ports—whether with or without real foundation—are causing people to remain at home or go elsewhere for treatment. If there are reasons, real or imaginary, why our cLizehs are avoid­ing their hospital either the reasons or the imaginings must be removed.

All soils'-which are expected to produce good crops, need to receive some treatment that will favorably affect their physical condition; chemical nature, or ;bacterial' activity. * : ......

Application of water only to run down soils will not give maximum returns.

Those having manure should have it,hauled out and spread on the land now: disk in as soon as ground is-in workable condition. Consider using some nitrose fer-'• tilizer this spring to feed up the low producing trees. Always keep in mind that a soil with a high humus con­tent is most desirable. : x

See to it .that a legume cover crop is sown this year. Hairy vetch preferred.

To poultrymen. Slogan for this year. "One hun­dred laying pullets on every ranch."

Get your incubator and brooder prepared at once for an early hatch.

Order your hatching eggs and day old chicks now. March and April chicks are more desirable than May or June. .It's the early winter laying pullets that make the profit. ••-.'>.-< •

carrying on a persistent, if ineffectual, campaign to force a Coast man onto the fruit growers as manager-in-chief of their big marketing organization.

Mr. W. L. Macken, this Vancouver weekly's pet candidate for a position with the fruit growers which is not open, without doubt, is a man of considerable ability, in fact has been a big factor in making a success of the Fraser Valley Milk Produc­ers' Association. In that work he has gained experience of which the growers' organization is glad to avail itself of, and has invited him to serve on Its Advisory Committee. ,

Our Vancouver contemporary, in its admiration for the Fraser Valley man and his success in marketing dairy products in Vancouver and vicinity, forgets the fact that his achieve­ments in a line of which he has long been familiar is no guar­antee that he would be equally successful in the very intricate work of finding buyers at profitable prices in the markets of the world for many kinds of fruit, a job that requires special training, experience and personal qualifications. Then, too, it proceecls'with every assurance that the fruit growers of the Interior have not among them just as good material, and with tho peculiar requisites necessary for the particular task, to

NARAMATA HEARS ANNUAL

WATER REPORT F. Cross and W. Sammett

Elected To Water • Board

CORRESPONDENCE Letters io the Editor.

The annual meeting of the N a r a ­mata Irrigation Distr ict was held i n the Uni ty Club ' on Thursday at 2 p.m. when a large number of electors were present to hear the financial report «for the year and to discuss various matters of interest. M r . . W . Armour presided, and called upon the Secretary, M r . A ; C. Horswi l l , to read the minutes of the last meeting, which were adopted as read. Fo l lowr ing this the annual statement, and the auditor's report on same were presented to the meeting, and showed assets of $89,556.16, wi th receipts for the year of $17,460.91, accounts payable amounting to $363.51 and a surplus of $617:35. A motion to have future annual statements pr int ­ed, and mailed to water users at least seven days before the date of such meetings was carried unanimously. Some crit icism of the waste of water by leakage and evaporation of water between the dam and the place of delivery was made by M r . Li t t l e john , and the adoption of metal flumes was advocated. The matter of put­t ing i n measuring boxes was discus­sed, a motion for their adoption being lost, it being apparently considered more to the purpose to improve exist­ing connections before instal l ing a measuring system. This discussion brought some interesting details of the C. P . R. weir system of measur­ing in i r r igat ion districts controlled by that organization, one of these areas being formerly in charge of M r . Rosser. . •

The question of arrears of taxes, and expenditure on maintainance re­ceived their share of discussion, i t being realized that the several thous­ands of dollars of unpaid taxes spread over the past two or three years i m ­posed a heavy burden on the remain­der of the users of y/ater, while i n the matter of maintainance costs i t was thought that the work should be more evenly distributed amongst those eligible than has been the cus­tom. On these and other points the candidates offering themselves for election as trustees addressed the meeting by invitation, the l ist being as fol lows:- W . Ritchie, T . S: W i l ­liams, J . - Wil l iams, J . J. Dunne, T . Kenyon, W . Sammett and F . Cross. The matter of remuneration to trust­ees' was then taken up and a . mot ion to authorize a payment of $25 to each trustee for the coming year was carried, superseding the past custom of honorary services. A vote of thanks to the trustees for their past service was carried unanimously, and the meeting closed at 4.45.

The poll ing by the Naramata Ir.-rigation Dis t r ic t for election of two trustees to fi l l the places of re t i r ing members took place on Saturday, re ; suiting in the appointment of Messrs-F . Cross and W . Sammett.

ALL BLACKS MAINTAIN REPUTATION

Answers Writer In The Chicago Packer

Summerland, B . C. Feb. 16, 1925

The Edi tor , . . Summerland Review,

Dear S i r : The article in your last issue

headed " F r u i t Dealers Oppose L a w " should bring home to growers the difference in the point of view be­tween growers and sellers of fa rm produce. The article speaks of Co­operation as a fetish. A n y opinion, strongly and consistently held, might w i th equal 'justice, be called a fetish.

One would imagine, from the gen­eral- attitude of Independents, that they consider themselves to have ac quired a vested r ight to do the sel­l ing for .us , ,and that any attempt on the part of growers to do for them­selves, through Co-operation, that -which most other producers of goods do—sell their own products—is an infringement of those rights. The speaker quoted i n the article says that the l ife of an independent f rui t firm averages many more years than the Co-operat ivés . B y his Own show­ing then, Independents here had am­ple opportunity of proving whether or not their method is the best. I leave growers to judge, f rom past financial results to themselves, what use they have made of their oppor­tunities, especially when the steady­i n g influence of a strong Co-operative organization has been absent. B u t the A c t complained of is to put a stop to just that k ind of thing which has been the cause of so many C o ­operative ventures in the past com­ing to an untimely end, and this is one reason why the Independents are so annoyed at i t .

'/• Had past methods been successful i n returning adequate prices to grow­ers Co-operation would not have a ghost of a chance to succeed owing to the inbred individualism of farm­ers, but f rui t growers at any rate, a r é now fighting for : their very exist-ance, and are entitled to be protected against the unfair methods so often used by powerful interests to break up their Co-operative organizations.

Yours truly, Jas. Shepherd

A t one point the professor was greatly puzzled by a most unu­sual curve, unlike anything he had seen before; and so mysterious that he made repeated tests to verify i t . The result never varied, and finally a close comparison of the curve wi th the quality of the voice at that mo­ment revealed the fact , that there was a tear in the voice! The wri ter says: " H o w anyone can put^a tear into the voice, is beyond imagination —but'here is the registration of such a tear."

Discretion was certainly the better part of valor of that presumably very youthful American who sent a

rather insulting letter D E C A D E N T to the editor of the Ox-

OXFORD ! ford undergraduates' , . paper "Isis," with the

request that his name be withheld until he had quitted England. Any individual so obviously lacking in the elementary principles of courtesy as this young gentleman would natur­ally also lack the courage to face those whom he insulted. The Oxford nien who were described as "lobby lizards" whoso insincerity was hidden by "decorative flippancy and dyspep tic sneers" would doubtless smile at the description, but the "decadence arid dullness" from which they also apparently suffer, would not be too dense tp hide the polite contempt which they would probably show to their former fellow student.

The claim of this ardent but dis croet young American is that the world famous Oxford University is not what it is generally supposed to bo and falls far below tho Amóri can universities in the matter of em cioncy. Well, wo may take a loaf from tho young gentleman's boo and, thnnk God that It is so, oven as ho thanked God ho was leaving Eng land.

Dry Powdered Limosulphur is made by evaporating in vacuum the ordinary Liquid Limosulphur: it cannot bo made any other way.

Liquid Limosulphur as W d in the valley contains tho equivalent of 200 lbs. of Dry Lim.esulphur per barrel. Tho Liquid Limosulphur this-season will cost tho consumer SIX CENTS por pound on tho 1 dry basis allowing, for tho return of tho container.

FINAL RETURNS FOR JONATHANS

Summerland Co-operative Growers'; Association w i l l take over from Grow­ers' Packing Houses, L imi ted a l l local buildings now held by that company. Negotiations were opened with the holding company many months ago and consent obtained to transfer the buildings to the local organization.

A t a meeting of the. members held some weeks ago this idea met with; approval but there, was much differ­ence of opinion as to how the title should be held. A t that time the; forming of a separate company to own the "buildings was favored. A t ' the annual meeting of shareholders; held last F r iday afternoon, the di­rectors proposed another plan, which met with- general favor. Under the; riew plan the buildings w i l l be owned; and controlled by the local co-opera­tive. Dur ing the past two years de-; ductions have been made from the price of each package of f rui t to be invested i n - t h e Growers' Packing Houses, L imi ted . F o r these deduc­tions and for further deductions to be applied, on the -purchase price, sharehofders w i l l be given preferred shares i n the Summerland Co-opera­tive. .

A motion proposed by G . J . Coulter White, one of the directors, to the

effect that the shareholders' meeting endorse the plan of having the tit le of the buildings in the local and that preferred shares be issued for-deduc-" tions made f rom growers' accounts for the purchase of the properties, was endorsed by the meeting.

About $23,000 w i l l have been paid on the properties by the end of the present shipping season. It is pro­posed that the preferred shares bear interest at 6 per cent. Be ing a co­operative organization, vfoting wi l l be on the basis of.one man one vote, rather than a vote for each share. The properties w i l l pass to the local under agreement of sale. _

The question of what depreciation, i f any, should be wri t ten off thcs buildings each year was also dis­cussed; 2.5 per, cent off the storage bui lding and 5 per cent off the wood­en buildings being recommended. This policy was thought advisable in view of the fact that preferred shares would be issued. It was stated that the money set aside each year for depreciation could be applied on the purchase. Fur ther , without provid­ing for > depreciation, the value of the shares could not be maintained.

Details w i l l be worked out by the directors and laid before the share­holders at later meeting.

'NOW AIN'T Y O U SORRY." Princeton believes it 'i'has the laugh on" Merritt. Every­

one knows how the Similkameen town worked to have the Coast-Interior highway routed over the much boosted Hope-Princeton survey. Great was its disappointment when the government announced its intention of building up the Fraser Canyon. The course of the new road was to follow the canyon up as far as Spences Bridge. From there it was to be diverted south through Merritt.

Now comes the announcement of a change. The new highway is to turn northward at Lyttoh and run via Lillooet to Pavilion and thence by way of Marble Canyon and' Hat Creek to Asheroft. "This leaves Merritt," says'the Princeton Star, "completely off the main tourist route" and that paper says that Merritt vigorously opposed the Hope-Princeton route, but "when the next agitation for the building of the Hope-Princeton road arises Princeton will expect to find Mer­ritt as strong a supporter as it-was previously an opposer o f l d e s i r e to l ive up to the Institute the project."

It promotes community pride, pep and growth. It is only giving the same support a parent is always will­

The business and industries of this community are the traits of the child. They should be developed to the utmost. And as with a child, the more talents developed, the greater the man or—our town.

Our folks—mostly all—are buyers in the home market. ' They realize that it is the merchants and public-spirited men who do things in this town. And that these men cannot do big things unless the home business is patronized.

This newspaper is one the business institutions of Sum­merland. It needs to be supported—the same as any line of merchandising.

Circulation—subscribing for this paper—is "one way of support. Another way is for the merchants and farm business men to buy advertising space in the columns of this paper.

Newspaper advertising is the foundation stone to success­ful selling. Buying of equipment, to be operated by inex­perienced help in the attempt to get "exclusive" and "direct" letters, circulars and pamphlets, has never impressed the buyer as being exact co-operation in the buy-at-home idea.

' cover; crop i n the irr igated orchards ' • of . B r i t i sh Columbia. The experi­

ments! carried on have boon designed ' to answer such questions as: "What

effect, has a' hairy, vetch cover crop on the yield and quality of fruit pro­duced?" ' 'What influence has i t on the growth and vigor of the trees?" " T o what extent does it improve tho texturo and fortui ty of tho so i l ?" " H o w dooB an orchard with a votch cover crop compare wi th on o wi th alf­alfa or clean cultivation as regards wator requirements?". " W h n t ' i n f l u -onco has tho uso of votch coyor crop on tho cost of oporation?" "Is tho proyalonco of orchard posts affoctod

Dotailod answors to many of those questions w i l l bo found in tho 102!) report of tho Summerland station Briefly i t may bo said that tho uso o f ha i ry votch as a cover crop has

' jmarlcodly incroaBod tho yield of f rui l * and tho growth of tho trooa. Tho

texturo and fortuity of tho aol l have undorgono a wonderful change for t h o bettor. Tho votch covor crop hna nocoaaltatod tho use of consider­ably moro wntor than cloan cult iva­tion, but IOBB than tho alfalfa Bod mulch systom. Tho cost of oporation

A space several feet i n - diameter should be kept, clear around each tree'..as a ^precaution against gi rdl ing, .by 'mice. Where gophers are unusually prevalent spe­cial measures may. be necessary'-:to ensure" their control .

À cordial invitat ion is extended to al l growers to visi t tho Expoi ' imontal Station orchards.

may find some encouragement i n a statement lately attributed to Sir

Oliver Lodge, and T H E L A N G U A G E given to the world

OF T H E E Y E S , as a "new" theory. According to this

pronouncement the man of the future wi l l talk with his eyes and w i l l enjoy "direct mental communication with­out • mechanical intervention," this happy culmination being presumably brought about by controlled stimu­lation of the "atoms which emit elec­trons" in response to the action of light. It is a l l very interesting — especially to-the scientist—the ordin­ary person, who would not know an electron from an atom i f he met them on the street, may be forgiven if he fails to react enthusiastically to the glad news. A n d when he ' i s told, by implication,- that a language of the* eyes is one of those develop ments which the future has in store he natural ly wonders why that should be given out as a new theory, seeing that i t has been in active operation from the coming of mankind on the earth. It is doubtless quite true that the reception of impressions to which

we have become accustomed, con tains much that is mysterious" — that is a truism which needs no en dorsement from science; the practical point is that men and women have been talking with their eyes from the beginning of things. Love, hate greed, fear and cruelty are al l far more eloquently expressed by the eyes than by the tongue, and also more consistently truthfully, since the tongue can be used to deceive while the language of the eyes is spontaneous, and reveals the mind un­consciously. •

matter of common knowledge that this particular sect always opposed the idea of education for its children, and a year or so back developed the pleasing habi t 'o f setting fire to the school buildings in the vicini ty by way of p'ro,-test. The premier of this pro­vince, as i n duty bound, informed the objectors that burning of school-houses must cease, and the depart­ment of education admonished them that their children must attend school.

A T SUMMERLAND OFFICE,

Another field for the operation of prohibition activities has been found. Dr. Winnifred Sackville Stoner of

New York, pre-THOSE WICKED' sident of the

NURSERY.RHYMES National Edu­cation Forum

has decided that the stories attributed to Old Mother Goose constitute a moral menace to the children of the present day and should be abolished. The bad example of Little Jack Horner, who used his thumb to get at the plums jn his pie, the anti-prohibition propaganda of Old King Cole, and the encouragement of pig stealing in the career of Tom, Tom, the piper's son, are all calculated to lead the young idea into paths of sin, while the peril of insomnia looms largo in the lives of those children who listen to the pernicious lullaby Hush-n-bye Baby on the Tree-top. It is not recorded that the lady has re­gistered any objections to the narra­tive in which a cortain Knave of Hearts figures as a dopravod stealer of tarts, nor that tale of callquB cruelty to the feathered tribe involv­ed in tho cremation of a couple" of dozen blackbirds |n a pie dosignod for royalty. But no doubt thoso aro in? eluded in tho genernl excommunica­tion, and oven AHco in Wonderland may have n hard timo in oscnping.

Senator Smith then gave the fo l ­lowing figures of produce imported in 1922 and the duty charged, which averages roughly but 1 5 % : Apples, total mported, $775,000, d u t y ; 1 9 % ; apricots,, quinces .and nectarines, $136,000, 7 V% %; blackberries^, goose­berries, e t c , $9.8,000, 8 - 1 - 3 % ; cher­ries, $83j000, 1 2 % ; grapes, $661,-000, 23 1-3%; peaches, $403,000, 2 6 % % ; pears, $566,000, 1 3 % % ; plums, $303,000, . 11% ; strawberries, $785,000, 1 6 % .

Senator Smi th stated that the con­sumer paid in f u l l the duty of 2 cents

pound on sugar, because Canada did not produce i t . He thought there 1 should, therefore, be a barrier against' early fruits, declaring that they were more a luxury than sugar. " I think; the duty should be on a l l the year round. It is real ly a revenue tariff which is suggested, and any Govern­ment could be asked for i t . I cannot see why there should be any objection to it. . Consumers who want frui-t before our crop is i n ought to pay 20% more for i t . Las t year our big markets were flooded wi th Amer ican peaches and plums and there was. a supply a l l through the •season. If they had been kept out there would have been a better chance for our own crop, and the producers would have received cost price.

Not Ask ing Too Much C. W . Baxter referred to a recent

gathering of free traders in Toronto and the advice given that action on this matter be not taken in case the Americans might retaliate by impos­ing a duyt on a l l foodstuffs. "Nothing can be gained by delaying this mat­ter," said~ M r . Baxter . "Probably we are not asking enough. There is no polit ical coior in this move. Con­ditions are serious.

Dry Powdered Limesulphur is made by evaporating in vacuum the ordinary Liquid Limesulphur: it cannot be made any other way.

H . J . Sanderson, manager of the Summerland Poul t ry Produce Asso­ciation, told The Review the other day that he. is selling'. Summerland eggs to citizens who use the shells for flower pots. It sounded like a ta l l story, he having been boasting of the very large eggs coming to the Association's egg station. ,
