Important Game District Here, Meetings of the provincial game board, such as that which was held in the city on Monday night, should prove mutually beneficial to (he board in carrying out its work effectively and to the loval fur trading interest ond nimroils. In a city where so many jKMipIe ore interested in the fur trade and in hunting, it might have seemed odd that, it was Die first public session the (iame Board had held. The (lame Board can only learn of local fondilions and requirements by coming on Hie ground and hear the local people express their views. That being I lie case, it is lo be hoped that this lale Hrsl meeting will be the forerunner of more lo be held here at frequent intervals. The north is the most prolific fur producing .section of B.C. and the best big game huiiling area and, as such, require attention of the (ianie Board perhaps more than any olhwr part of the province. The north should also be well represented on the board and it might be well lo have two members one representing the north coast in addition to Ihe member from the central interior. Scopes Trial No Credit To U.S. r The scene of the evolution trial romedy is lo bo moved from Daylon to Knoxville, Tennessee. John Scopes was fined $to() for leaching that man came from a monkey and now he is going, to sec a higher court about it. While the world giggles about the ltayton case, there are some serious minded people who think Ihal effort might be more properly directed towards reducing actual crime in United States than towards pulling down the preaching of a harmless doctrine one Ihal can hardly harm even Ihe youngest school child. The Scopes trial isi no credit lo the intelligence of the American people. Election Guns Being Primed.

'.The last week lias brought about a very, marked change in the character of the. crop reports from this province says the Edmonton Journal. Only on Saturday last Ihe federal bureau of statistics put Hie -condition of Alberta Vheal at 12 per cent heller than the ll)ir-ilt)24 average. TJiis.was based on reports received :on June ilQ, bill the subsequent extremely hot wealher and la?k of rain have had a serious-effect, especially in the ex-treme'south and in Ihe extreme north. No extraordinary yield is now looked for, but a reasonably good one, taking the province as a whole, is still in prospect. One. thing that is very apt to be overlooked is the extraordinary recuperative power which the crop lias frequently displayed in other years after this date. With good raiiis during the halaiiee of the month,, ah improvement as startling as Ihe deterioration of Ihe past ten days might easily he effected. In our ow.part of Hie province they would proye of great lne-fil, bill the. need is nothing like as acute here as elsewhere. It is an , anxious time, but much confidence is still warranted in the season's, result. - ' So;,far as the west at, large is concerned, Ihe damage as ye doys nopappearMo lHtyivmaienall'y hanged the ptilkrok. ,. - 'i s rv i v. mj 0 the Naas River Mining Division Had Big Production in 1924; Granby Company Large Factor (By Oeorge Clothier, Resident Engineer) The Naas River mining division extends! from the mouth of Portland inlor north to the head of the- ICi'lsanlt river, a dis tance of about IHIIIt, 70 III miles. 1IIIIC?.

Thitwas Division fs t be re fore very accessible for prospecting. and 'mining; development and Hie rbads and trails are being improved anil eacti year by grant si from Hie .Mines department. The Division has Ihe dislino- Hdii of being Ihe second largest producer in the Province, due to Hie operations of the (iranhv Company at Anyox. There are two small shippers in the (iol-skeish near Anyox and Hspcran-za at Alice Arm. There are a number of very promising showings in the .Kitsault Hiver, Il liance. and 'Alice Arm (proper sections.

I 1'ractically all this tonnage- was mined between the 000 fool level, working tunnel, and the 1,070 fool level (above;, accounting for the low copper- conlent of the ore.
