To seek u improve what means, is the aim of a statesman. One of the Eastern newspapers, possibly the largest in Canada, calls on the politicians to cease their bickering and try to cooperate. Yet that newspaper was the same one that only a few. year ago wns running a series of articles under the title "A Whisper Of Death" In which it stated that the former Mackenzie King government was driving the country to destruction. Today we know how false was (hat claim. However, the idea of political co-operation is a good one. That was one of the chief objections to former Premier Bowser. He never recognized anything good in his opponents. People who frequented the legislature for years say they never heard him admit that anything his opponets did was of any value. In that he differed .from Sir Richard MvBride who. in spite of his faults, was indeed a statesman.' He was a big hearted man who recognized greatness wherever he saw it and was willing to sink political differences when the good of the country demanded it. HANDICAP OF REPORT In connection with the campaign for securing the outlet for the Peace River country on the northern coast of British Columbia it must be remembered that Prince Rupert starts off with a bad handicap in that the engineers of the Canadian Pacific Railway and also. Get this healthful habit !

That part of the report folic wt: ;n connection with the survey of the Bablne Forest, a study waa made of the growth of jackplne (Pluus Murraytna) the report of which has not ty date been received. During the cummer months a two roan party, from Forest "Branch headquarters studded re-stocking on logged over spruce ares' on the Queen 0r-lotte Islands. A report of findings has not yet come to hand. tLi:i;x ciiaklottis' The Entomological Branch of the De partment ot Agriculture sent an espert to the Queen. Charlotte Islands In September to study the spruce aphis (My- MDhta abletlne). It was found that Indications which were first observed In 1036 In the vicinity of Jedway had spread along the east coast of Moresby and Oraham IMands and to Maaset Inlet. It Is thought that the height of the epidemic Is past, and that In ensuing yean a comparatively small amount of new Umber will be attacked by this The Dominion entomological Branch reported on cedar (Thuja pllcata) which was noticed to be sloughing much of tta Inner foliage. This was thought to be the result of an attack by Kelthia thu- Jina but on closer Investigation was found to be the result of a wet spring and early summer, followed by a sudden dry period In August. Iivisim: lake The abore department also reported on an Infestation whteh had been known to exist on Bablne Lake iff the vicinity of Morrison River. In this case, Dsndroe-tomis boramlla. over a period of at least five yean, baa kUled Englemann Spruce over an area of 11.000 acres. Control measures are not advised, owing to tbe fact that their coat would exceed the value of benefits to be derived, and also because indications point to the fact that this Infestation will bt on the decline after 1937.

We an accustomed to a hazard which commences lbout the middle of April, reaches IM height towards the latter end of May. and pas out with the June rain which accelerate the growth of new grass and other ground cover. Last spring waa marked by an unusual precipitation throughout May and June, ttvely heavy coat, fire losses were low: Ores, practically no damage and a total coa of 13 M. After July l the country began t dry out although occasional showers 1 feu untU the eleventh. From that daw. uatu the end of August those of the Canadian -National in 1926 reported against Prince HiiiYrttriii -rruch wa pert and In favor of Vancouver. The report, thought by many to be a prejudiced one, said that Portland Canal wax the least advantageous and Vancouver the most. Prince Rupert came between. Any action taken has to beat down the recommendation made in this report which, is in the hands of the government and of members of parliament. From the point of view (if political influence, the large population to the south is an advantage and Prime Kupert ha now the disadvantage of a member hostile to the government. All these adverse influences have to Ik overcome. We point this out simply to show how difficult i the handicap under which we are laboring. We all believe that the enginer'wen wrong and that the logical outlet for the railway is here but the difficulty will be to convince the government of that.

The trailing urrant (Rlbes laxtfloruml was also found to be Infected at Ocean Falls. Currant were examined at Ketchikan. Alaska, but no trace of Infection was found. The results Indicate that the blister rust will spread 300 miles from the white pine to the currant as compared, with only a few hundred feet from the currant bush to the pine. An official report of this has not been 00- characterised by low humidity sad very nuttry weather. The peak was reached about mid-August and by the end of the month eighty-sight fires had bean reported, of which forty-one had been fought at a cost of approximately six thousand dollars. la spite of the high hazard and. for this district, compara tively heavy coat, fine loaaes were low; aaly thirty-two seres of merchantable timber were burned with a net low of 190 M.B.U. Damage to property other than forests was 1336.00. Campers, travellers and smokers were responsible for 83 of our fires. The opening up of the Bkeena Highway will undoubtedly Increase the traveller risk from now on. Quite a few automobiles reached Haaelton from Vancouver and other southern points last aeaaoa while a Ford came all the way from the out skirts of Chicago. A marked Improvement la taking place In the handling of road slash by the Public Works Department Throughout the Bkeena highway slash la beuiK burned on all new construction A number of contracts were let for slashing and dee ring right of way and in every cine burning was insisted on Sixteen permits were Issued for roxcl slash burning Two escaped control but were .mmedlately extinguished by the rrews before any damage was done In view rt h exceptionally dry summer this Is considered a very good record and indicative of extreme carefulness on the pun of the permittee. I AMI' Klltt; I'KltMITH The introduction of the Camp Fire Permit waa viewed with some trepidation. It was generally felt that there would be an outcry about another in- 9heift that keeps on frlngement on thai Hbtrty of tbe people, but contrary' to expectation tbe Innovation was well reostred. Probably tbe ample facilities given for obtaining tbe permit bad mucna do with tbls. We adopted (be principal of Issuing permits for . tbe entire ill season but are of tbe opinion that aubjest to certain eseeptl n a shorter period Would bare been more educative. Man in the Moon HO.
