Letters lo the Edttor<br />
The Editor,<br />
Oariboo Observer.<br />
Sir:—^Would you kindly spare<br />
the space in your paper for my<br />
letter which I am sure many will<br />
agree with me.<br />
This being Centennial Year, the<br />
slogan is "Visit B.C.," and to us<br />
in the Noi-th Oariboo Barkerville<br />
is one of our miain attractions.<br />
Recently a party of us made a<br />
trip to our historic goldfield<br />
town. The roads we found, with<br />
the exception of dust, to be in<br />
very good condition; there certainly<br />
has been a great improvement<br />
made in the past two years.<br />
But to our disappointment from<br />
the time you enter Wingdam until<br />
you arrive back again one has<br />
the feeling of being in enemy<br />
territory. Everywhere you turn a<br />
"No Trespassing" sign along<br />
with padlocks greets you.<br />
With the exception of the<br />
•church, which is open to the public,<br />
and the museum, which you<br />
pay to see, you are not allowed<br />
to go near or tunch any building<br />
or machine.<br />
I believe the B.C. Government<br />
plans on spending $67,000 (?) restoring<br />
this historic town. Wc<br />
are wondering if the money is<br />
going to be spent for more "No<br />
Trespassing" signs, more padlocks,<br />
and perhaps a few more<br />
shotguns as one sign says" Any<br />
one found traspassing will be<br />
shot." What a way to greet<br />
tourists. We were just thankful<br />
to get out- alive, and left with the<br />
impression visitors are not welcome<br />
in Barkerville, they're just<br />
a nuisance.<br />
Am I right?<br />

HIXON Centennial Flower and<br />
Fashion Show was held in the<br />
Hixon Community Hall on Wednesday,<br />
<strong>August</strong> 20, under auspices<br />
of tihe Woodpecker-Hixon W.I.<br />
The display and variety of<br />
flowers, potted plants, table decorations,<br />
gresses, ferns and<br />
field bouquets surpassed anything<br />
the sponsors had hoped for.<br />
Interest shown by the number<br />
of exhibits and the excellent attendance<br />
was most gratifying.<br />
The W.I. will probably take the<br />
advice of Mr. Rainforth, horticulturist<br />
who came from Prince<br />
George to judge the flower exhibits,<br />
and make this an ann^lal<br />
event.<br />
A beautiful silver rose bowl<br />
was the prize in the adult section,<br />
awarded on a point basis,<br />
and was won by Mrs. Susan<br />
Swanky, with 53 f>oints.<br />
Mrs. Liddie Sahlsitrand came<br />
second with 51 points, and Mrs.<br />
Martha Von Li en en third with 26<br />
points.<br />
In the children's section, Robert<br />
Sahlslrand came first with<br />
20 points. Linda Swanky was second<br />
with 18 points and Margaret<br />
Clark third with 15.<br />
The prize was a silver cup<br />
mounted on an ebony base.<br />

Swimming is a cure for rheumatism,<br />
says Mrs. Fanny Burstein<br />
of Toronto, who took up regular<br />
swimming when she was 62.<br />
"I learned to iswim when I was<br />
a child in Portland, and swam<br />
occasionally during the 37 years<br />
I have been in Toronto," she said.<br />
"But •! was afraid to go out of<br />
imy depth, and just floundered<br />
ar--md.<br />
"Then '.hree years ago I decided<br />
to fake it up seriously, and<br />

qiiiarter of a mile. And it has<br />
cured mv rheumatism."<br />

BARBECUE TIPS<br />
There is more to the barbecue<br />
business than meets the eye.<br />
Pointers for better barbecuing,<br />
produced by Dorothy Batchellor<br />
of the Poultry Products Institute<br />
of Canada, are these:<br />
Placing a layer of clean sand,<br />
'small stones or gravel on the<br />
bottom of the ibowl of a portable<br />
metal barbecue helps to prolong<br />
tiie life of rtlhe bowl, since the<br />
(sand or stones protect the bowl<br />
from the intense heat of the live<br />
'coals. In addition air can filter<br />
up to keep the fire burning evenly.<br />
The stone or sand also catches<br />
the drippings and minimiizes<br />
(the flameup and scorching during<br />
cooking.<br />
To obtain that smoky flavor<br />
essential to barbecue, soak hickory<br />
bark in water and put bits<br />
on 'tihe fire when the food is near-<br />

at and dip in water.<br />
Use tongs rather than a fork<br />
for turning the meat, so the meat<br />
will not be pierced and lose its<br />
flavorful juices.<br />
HOME TREATS<br />
Popsicles for children can be<br />
'made easiily at home. Fruit juice,<br />
left-over syrup from canned fruit<br />
or any bottled soft drink may be<br />
used and vegetable coloring added<br />
df desired. Pour the liquid into<br />
individual ice-cube molds nnd<br />
'freeze slightly. Then flat wooden<br />
sticks can be poked into the<br />
popsickles before they freeze<br />
completely.<br />
Left-over coffee can be a midday<br />
refresiher if frozen in icc-<br />
'cube molds and served in iced<br />
coffee.. Ice cubes with a cherry<br />
or mint leaf dn them add festivity<br />
to a cool thirst-quencher.<br />
NEW SCHOOL<br />
The University of New Brunswick's<br />
new school of nursing, expected<br />
ito open at Fredericton an<br />
September, 1959, has appointed<br />
its first director, to take office<br />
this fall. She is Miss Katherine<br />
McLaggan, present assistant<br />
director of public nursing for<br />
New BruniS'Wick.<br />
EASIER RULE<br />
Canadians returning from Britain<br />
are now permitted to import<br />
S300 worth of goods in any one<br />
year, instead of the old regulation<br />
that limited them to $100<br />
during each four-month period.<br />
The British Travel Association<br />
therefore has published a new<br />
edition of its booklet "Shopping<br />
in London" for Oanadian tourists.<br />
It gives a complete guide<br />
to London stores, including the<br />
Bond Street salons of fashion and<br />
the antique shops.<br />

By DON ATTFIELD<br />
Canadian Press Staff Writer<br />
The federal and British Oolumhia<br />
governments last week offered<br />
to help send the troublesome<br />
Sons of Freedom Doukhobors<br />
back to Russoia, the homeland<br />
they left in the 1890's because<br />
of persecution.<br />
Ottawa offered transpontation<br />
expenses. B.C. offered to pay for<br />
resettlement up to tlie amount<br />
the federal government pays.<br />
Although the move could cost<br />
more than $2,000,000, it could<br />
end bombings and burnings that<br />
Ihave plagued B.C.'s interior for<br />
years.<br />
Doukhobors wishing to go<br />
must apply by Sepitemiber 30. If<br />
they go they must also renounce<br />
Canadian citizenship.<br />
FREE CmLDREN<br />
The government plan would<br />
meet one of the sect's greatest<br />
complaints, the enforced confinement<br />
of their children at a<br />
provincial government school.<br />
Parents had refused to send<br />
those children to school at all.<br />
The government will restore<br />
Tne children to itheir parents —<br />
but only those parents who apply<br />
to go to Russia.<br />
The government offer was to<br />
be considered by the Doukhobors'<br />
semi-secret governing body,<br />
it's "fraternal council." A fourman<br />
Doukhobor delegation went<br />
to Russia recently and was<br />
promised a Siberian site about<br />
1,600 miles east of Moscow.<br />
Yet even as the governments<br />
were preparing .their offers there<br />
were new bomb blasts. The<br />
bombs and burnings have been<br />
blamed on the radical Sons of<br />
Fredom, who describe themselves<br />
as pacifists but refuse to obey<br />
• Canadian laws.<br />
MINISTER EMBARRASSED<br />
The shame of Northern Affairs<br />
lVIini.ster Alvdn Hamilton over<br />
American military posts in the<br />
Arctic turned to embarrassment<br />
late last week.<br />
Dast <strong>Thursday</strong> Mr. Hamilton<br />
said it was a matter of "national<br />
chagrin" that Canadian officials<br />
have to obtain United States permission<br />
to visit the Canadian<br />
North.<br />
Opposition Leader Pearson<br />
urged Canada to take over control<br />
of U.S. defence installations<br />
dn the North as soon as possible.<br />
The U.S. state department immediately<br />
denied Mr. Hamilton's<br />
.statement, saying a Oanadian<br />
"obviously" is free to travel to<br />
DEW line sites in the Oanadian<br />
Arctic.<br />
Later Prime Minister Diefenbaker<br />
said ariiangements for<br />
travel to U.S.-manned Arctic<br />
posts in no way interfere with<br />
Canadian soverignty.<br />

THE KAMLOOPS Christ/mas Fat<br />
Stock Show is to have a new<br />
look.<br />
Instead of being an outlet only<br />
for fat stock it will also become<br />
an outlet for B.C. feeder cattle.<br />
B.C. Cattle Growers Asociation<br />
secretary Julian Fry explained<br />
that changing market conditions<br />
in the B.C. cattle industry have<br />
made the change necessary.<br />
"Despite the. fact that we import<br />
New Zealand .grass beef and<br />
pay the same prices for it that<br />
we formerly paid for. the same<br />
product from B.C., the demand<br />
for B.C. grass beef is restricted.<br />
"We have to face these facts<br />
and so most E.C. ranchers are<br />
raisin'^ feeder cattle for finishing<br />
either on the prairies or in<br />
the United States," he said.<br />
The result is that in addition<br />
to the exhibition and sale of fal<br />
stock, there will be a feeder show<br />
and sale.<br />
with the extra requirements<br />
for the feeder sale, the<br />
B.C. Cattle Growers Association<br />
are providing $2,000 from the<br />
general fund.<br />
This is being matched by the<br />
Provincial Govemment who are<br />
raising their contribution to the<br />
sale from $1,000 to $3,000.<br />
Mr. Fry emphasized that the<br />
additional $2,000 from the Department<br />
of Agriculture is strictly<br />
for the feeder sale and not for<br />
general expenses.<br />
"Prize money will be liberal<br />
but the show committee have<br />
made it 'clear that no prizes will<br />
be given unless entries are of<br />
show standard," he said.<br />
There will be three classes in<br />
the feeder section: Pens of 20,<br />
10 and five. It is expected that at<br />
least $1,500 will be allocated towards<br />
prize money in the feeder<br />
show.<br />
OPEN CLASSES<br />
Prizes wUl also be offered in<br />
open classes for fat stock. A total<br />
to .?750 will be awarded for groups<br />
of five and for open singles halter<br />
classes.<br />

Control Is<br />
Expanded<br />
A BRUCELLOSIS control pi'O<br />
.gram, spreading gradually a- „<br />
cross Canada, has so far seen 10<br />
areas declared free of the disease.<br />
Testing is proceeding in 24 areas,<br />
where there are an estimated<br />
430,000 head of cattle.<br />
Health of Animals Division,<br />
Canada Department of Agriculture,<br />
reports that 247 areas have<br />
been accepted for testing, over<br />
and above the ten completed. Cattle<br />
under supervision total 2,878,-<br />
551.<br />
The national eradication program<br />
was started in April, 1957.<br />
Prince Edward Island was th(.><br />
first area to be certified.<br />
Overall level of infection in<br />
the initial test is about one per<br />
cent. In some areas, however, as<br />
high as five per ment of the animals<br />
have been found to be infected.<br />
On a herd basis, the rate<br />
is roughly 14 pr cent, although<br />
in some areas this figure hus<br />
been as high as 25 per cent.<br />
Brucellosis costs the livestock<br />
industry about $9,000,000 annually<br />
through decreased milk production,<br />
loss in calf crop and the<br />
subsequent replacement of breeding<br />
stock.<br />

meetings an unqualified success.<br />
He said: "These conferences<br />
have been exceptionally well received<br />
by processors, eviscerators,<br />
wholesalers and all allied<br />
industry people. The interest<br />
s-hown has been outstanding."<br />
They have been held in every<br />
part of the country except British<br />

Spotlight was on the Maritimes<br />
last month as a conference was<br />
held at the Nova Scotia Agricultural<br />
College, .Truro. Attending<br />
were delegates from as far away<br />
as Fred eric ton, N.B., and Charlottetown,<br />
P.E.I.<br />
The meeitiings opened with a<br />
panel discussion by retailers on<br />
what the average housewife<br />
wants in poultry meat. The story<br />
of marketing was outlined by Mr.<br />
Bonnyman, and latest research<br />
findings described by a spokesman<br />
for the National Research<br />
Council.<br />
Importance of sanitation involving<br />
both the plant and the<br />
product was stressed by a representative<br />
of the Health of Animals<br />
Division.<br />
An up-to-the-iminute touch came<br />
with a talk on preparation of<br />
turkeys in cut-up form—^halves,<br />
Quarters-, steaks, roUs and so<br />
forth.<br />
"The committee feels that this<br />
show and Sale should attract cattle<br />
from the entire province and<br />
not merely from the Kamloops<br />
area," Mr. Fry said.<br />
Depending on the response to<br />
sale invitations, further accommodation<br />
for cattle at Kamloops<br />
Exhibition Grounds may or may<br />
not be provided, he said. Presently<br />
there is accommodation for<br />
400 head of feeder cattle.<br />
Mr. Fry said plans are being<br />
made to hold a separate auction<br />
for feeder cattle on the day following<br />
the regular fat stock auction.<br />

TUBERCULOSIS in Canadian<br />
cattle has been reduced to less<br />
'th'an two-tenths of one per cent<br />
and v/ill eventually be stamped<br />
out. Dr. A. E. Lewis, associate<br />
chief veterinarian, Canadian Department<br />
of Agriculture, told a<br />
Michigan State University conference<br />
on tuberculosis eradication.<br />
First tuberculin tests' were carried<br />
out in Canada about 1900<br />
and incidence of the disease was<br />
recorded as high as 20 per cent<br />
in some areas. It has dropped to<br />
a low of 0.14—^the percentage of<br />
reactors uncovered dming the<br />
last fiscal year.<br />
"Although we encounter many<br />
problems," he said, "we are convinced<br />
that we will eventually<br />
eradicate the disease."<br />
Dr. Lewis traced the history<br />
of Canada's fight against bovine<br />
tuberculosis to the first eradication<br />
plan, adopted in 1913 and<br />
known as the Supervised Herd<br />
Plan. Under it, owners could<br />
have an annual herd test without<br />
charge. Reactors were removed<br />
from the herd without compensation.<br />
The Restricted Area Plian started<br />
in 1923 and all Canada came<br />
under it in 1952, at which time<br />
the Supervised Herd Plan was<br />
discontinued.<br />
In restricted areas, testing of<br />
all cattle is mandatory and reactors<br />
must be slaughtered immediately.<br />
Wlhen cattle with the<br />
disease are removed from the<br />
herd, the owner must clean and<br />
disinfect his premises. Then he<br />
receives compensiation from the<br />
Federal government.<br />
This Restricted Area Plan provides<br />
for the controlled movement<br />
of cattle into an area, preventing<br />
the introduction of in<br />

fected animals. Dr. Lewis explained.<br />
The only other policy foUowed<br />
on a national level involves the<br />
Accredited Herd Plan. Strictly<br />
voluntary', it is open only to owners<br />
with a minimum of 10 pure<br />
bred cattle of one breed. Its<br />
standards are high "since tihe<br />
plan is intended only for bona<br />
fide breeders."<br />
FuH-time salaried veterinarians<br />
and practitioners are emplo^-'ed<br />
by the government to<br />
carry out periodical tests under<br />
both F>olicies.<br />
When reactors are found, owner<br />
sales and purchases over the<br />
past two yoars are studied. All<br />
herds from which reactor animals<br />
originate and aU animals<br />
sold are submitted to a SF>ecial<br />
re-test.<br />
All animals undergoing tests<br />
are ear tagged, and reactors are<br />
identified with red tags in the<br />
left ear. Such tags have the word<br />
"reactor" in. the upp>er side and<br />
isuch reactors are inrnaediately<br />
ordered slaughtered.<br />
Dr. Lewis said that in dealing<br />
with the export of cattle to the<br />
United States every precaution<br />
is taken to ensure that only animlals<br />
free from tuberculosis are<br />
shipped.<br />

Agriculture Policy<br />
THE ANNUAL two-day Dominion<br />
- Provincial Agricultural<br />
Conference will be held in Ottawa<br />
November 12 and 13, three<br />
weeks earlier than usual, it was<br />
announced by Hon. Douglas S.<br />
Harkness, Minister of Agriculture.<br />
This is a resumption of the<br />
conferences that have been held<br />
regularly for many years, but<br />
wrich was dropped last year.<br />
Purpose is to discuss the agricultural<br />
outlook and existing agricultural<br />
policies.<br />
Attending will be provincial<br />
ministers and deputy ministers<br />
of agriculture, and delegates<br />
from Oanadian farm organizations.<br />
It is expected that farm groups<br />
will present briefs on the opening .<br />
day of the conference, and that<br />
ddscus'sdon between officials will<br />
follow.<br />
Conference dates this year<br />
have been advanced in order that<br />
results of deliberations may be<br />
made available to farmers in<br />
good time.<br />
Farm Worlthorse<br />
Regains Popularity<br />
CANADA'S workhorse is regaining<br />
some of the prominence it<br />
losit during post-war years.<br />
At present there is a scarcity of<br />
this type of horse, according to<br />
Dr. F. J. Leslie, Livestock and<br />
Poultry Production Division, Canada<br />
Department of Agriculture,<br />
and there has been a noticeable<br />
increased interest in breeding.<br />
The price, he said, has nearly<br />
doubled in the past six or seven<br />
years.<br />
Dr. Leslie explained that a fair<br />
percentage of farms in Quebec<br />
and other parts of Canada will<br />
always require horses.<br />
"Due to climatic and geographic<br />
conditions, there will always<br />
be a considerable demand<br />
for draught-itype horses," he asserted.<br />
The federal expert outlined<br />
three main reasons for the drastic<br />
decline in numbers:<br />
1. Meehanization.<br />
2. Sale of horses for slaughter<br />
purposes during and after World<br />
Warn.<br />
3. Farm labpr shortage. Hired<br />
men preferred driving tractors<br />
to horses.<br />
Now that a shortage does exist<br />
across the country. Dr. Leslie<br />
said, many farmers are again<br />
breedin gtheir own work horses.<br />

UNDER NORMAL conditions of<br />
grazing the grasses and legumes<br />
in the pasture sward have<br />
been putting out new growth<br />
throughout the summer, and this<br />
growth has been kept eaten back,<br />
so that the plant has been put<br />
under heavy drain all season.<br />
Hence in the fall the plants<br />
should be aUowed to make good<br />
growth in order that they will go<br />
into the winter with a good cover<br />
on the surface and good food re-<br />
Fallow Acreage<br />
Doesn't Change<br />
H u c l i In Years<br />
THE PICTURE on summ erf allowing<br />
seldom chc-.nges in any<br />
given area. Some farmers may<br />
step up their acreage, but others<br />
counteract dJhis by a general<br />
slackening off.<br />
This was proved by a Canada<br />
Department of Agriculture survey<br />
of illustration stations in<br />
southeastern Sask. where the average<br />
acreage for ten years ended<br />
la.st year was 800 acres, with<br />
300 in summerfallow.<br />
The summerfallow acreage on •<br />
each .station varied from a low<br />
of 1] per cent to a high of 30 per<br />
cent. However, the total acreage<br />
in summerfallow for the all<br />
the stations varied less than six<br />
per cent during this period.<br />
The conclusion?<br />
As individual farmers adjust<br />
their sumimerfallow acreage each<br />
year to obtain the highest return<br />
"by taking advantage of changes<br />
in prices, moistiure and such<br />
problems as weeks, insects and<br />
disease, the overall acreage in<br />
summerfallow remains about the<br />
same.<br />
serves in the roots, to withstand<br />
the freezing temperatures and to<br />
get away to a good start next<br />
spring.<br />
It is particularly important this<br />
year after the exteremely dry<br />
summer in most sections of the<br />
Province that pasture be given<br />
plenty of time to make good<br />
growth after rains come this fall.<br />
Naturally with grazing in short<br />
supply farmers are tempted to<br />
start grazing as soon as some<br />
new igrowth appears. In doing so<br />
there is a tendency to overgraze<br />
and reduce the vigor of the plants<br />
which will affect future production.<br />
Provision of fall pasture is critical<br />
on most farms.i Late seeded<br />
cereal crops, such as oats, are<br />
often used, or early seeded fall<br />
cereals can be grazed after they<br />
have made good growth. Aftermath<br />
of hayfields provide fall<br />
grazing provided the field has<br />
made ample growth and the field<br />
is not overgi-azed. If a forage<br />
stand is going to be broken out<br />
the following season then it can<br />
be heavily grazed because next<br />
year's growth can be sacrificed.<br />
At this time of year supplementary<br />
feeding of hay and silage<br />
will help conserve fall pastures.<br />
It is important too to continue<br />
rotation or strip grazing<br />
to get the most out of what pasture<br />
is available and to avoid<br />
overgrazing.<br />
HOG POPULATION RISES<br />
There were 6,164,000 hogs on<br />
Canadian farms at the end of<br />
June, according to Dominion<br />
Bureau of Statistics figures, an<br />
increase of 27 per cent from the<br />
year-earlier estimate of 4,857,000.<br />
The number of hogs in eastern<br />
Canada rose 19 per cent to 3,057,-<br />
000 and in western Canada the<br />
number increased 36 per cent to<br />
3,107,000.<br />

There has been a very persistent,<br />
and we might add, brave,<br />
prowler in the district recently,<br />
namely Mr. Bruin. The appear-;<br />
ance of a bear is not uncommon<br />
this time of year, but the unusual<br />
thing about this one is how close<br />
it ventures to homes. No one has<br />
bad a chance to track it down,<br />
although it has been seen on several<br />
occasions.<br />

The children who attended<br />
Bible Vacation School last week<br />
certainly seem to have enjoyed<br />
themselves. The weather was<br />
perfect and they were able to<br />
enjoy a swim every day. A closing<br />
session was held Friday evening<br />
when parents attended and<br />
all seemed very pleased with the<br />
work the children had accomplished<br />
in such a short period.<br />

The Murray family has spent<br />
the past week recovering from<br />
the fire episode. Everything was<br />
topsy-turvy, but Mrs. Murray<br />
states things are gradually returning<br />
to normal. It is reported<br />
that Jim Murray, 15, the youngest<br />
son, broke all records when<br />
he ran to the Wheelers for help<br />
when (the fire was first discovered.<br />
He never opened a gate or<br />
went under a fence, but jxmaped<br />
the lot, and, as Mr. Wheeler says,<br />
"We rushed to the fire in Jimmy's<br />
dust."<br />

Of interest to local residents<br />
will be the announcement of the<br />
wedding to take place in Quesnel<br />
this Friday between Miss Margaret<br />
Terrico and Mr. Frank<br />
Parr, both well known local<br />
young people. A reception is to<br />
be held in the Dragon Lake Hall<br />
following the wedding to which<br />
friends and relatives are invited.<br />
