As Canadians we were generally pleased to see Herman Trelle, the Peace River rancher, carry off world's honors for excellence of wheat and oats production but there was, undoubtedly, a greater degree of interest and gratification when it was announced that two Francois Lake farmers, C. D. Haven, and II. Braaten, had carried off the honors at the big show for timothy seed with Telkwa farms well up in the same class. It goes as further proof of what we already know that the great Bulkley and Necliako valleys have potential agricultural possibilities not only in the way of stock raising but in growing the feed for horses and cattle. The farmers who sent their exhibits to Chicago are to be congratulated on their product and also for their enterprise in sending their exhibits to the show. The results may be far reaching and, in any case, will serve to put the country strongly in the public eye as the outcome of these competitions are watched closely by farmers in all sections of this continent and by many elsewhere. With this demonstration of so notable a character of what good farming can accomplish in Central British Columbia, a powerful stimulus may be given to its development. It is greatly Indebted to the farmers who entered the contest and won in the face of the very stiff competition that they had to meet. The people of Queen Charlotte City5-are to: be sympathized wjtn not so much on account of the disastrous fire that visited their trm P- town last week but more so because of the failure of the mill com-j pany which ha3 caused them no dittle disappointment and inconvenience when they thought they were well on the way to prosperity. Some complaints have come from the Islands as to the way the bankrupt company treated its employees and the business people there. Probably the tompany had no other alternative but it is gratifying to know that its affairs arc now in the custody of one of the province's foremost and most reliable lumber men whom they may be assured will do the best possible for them. SOMET1SIES ITS DRAMER TO LIVE THAN DIE. Sometimes it is braver to live than to die. Certainly such would have been the case with the man in Vancouver who poisormil himself last week because he did not believe he cotild provide for his destitute wife and five children. In fact suicide is never an admirable thing. In practically every case it is the act of a person who Is either mentally deranged or afraid Ho face the future and, in the latter case, it is a cowardly thing1. r ASSOCIATED BOARD SEEMS GOOD MOVE. The movement to form an Associated Board of Trade for Central British Columbia looks like a wle one. It almost seems strange that it was not thought of before. The Prince Rupert Board ued good judgment when it decided to become an active member. With such centres as Prince Rupert, Smithcrs, Vanderhoof, Prince George showing a united front, it will undoubtedly be easier for Northern B.C. to ,go after the things it needs and get them. L.0.B1.
