SOME NEW RASPBERRIES

Varieties Tried out by the Dominion
Experimentors and Found Good

There are always uew. varieties of
fruit udvertised.in the catalogues to
attract the eye of fruit rowers. Bre
quently many of these newer sorts
have more merit in descriptions given’
them. than they have in the trial
grounds. It so happens, however,that
recently there have been added to our
raspberry: lists a few new sorts of ottt-
standing merit. The newest of these
is the Viking, a-berry worthy of trial
by any grower, .In-strength of cane
and plant vigor it is decidedly superi-
or, while in size of fruit, attractiveness
and -productiveness it belongs .tce the
highest order, Tor three years it hay
proved hardy in castern Ontario where
it is well grown. We believe, says, M.
B. Davis of the Central Experimental
Faym nt Ottawa, it has a permanent
place {a fruit plantations, Another
variety not so new but of considerable
merit is the Newman, ‘This variety,
while not so tall and vigorous a grow-
ev us the Viking has given excellent
yields fur several yeurs, Its fruit is

best shipping berry we have yet met.
Any grower who has not tried it will
do well to make its acquaintance ‘af
once, ‘Iwo other varieties should: re-
eeive mention. One is the Victory, sv
for indistinguishable from the Cuth-
bert; the other is the Latham, a very
good variety which has proven exccp-
tlonally hardy. While it has. nll the
merits of a first class sort it is not all

ditions, We cannot see any good rea.
sou for it replacing the Herbert.

ty-four members this year. The ath-
letic committee reported on the equip-
ment, new and oid, and what was still
needed for the grounds. Capt. Colth-
urst collected considerable money for

GREAT NEW VALLY A MYTH

Indians Report that (her. ia no Pass
Through the Meuntains

The undiscovered valley that Vic-
toria despatches made so much fuss
about and which was to solve the pro-
blem of getting to Prince Rupert with
an auto trond, has been pretty well ex-
Ploded. A survey party which went
out to investigate penetrated about 16

“tiniles into. the valley from.the Kallum }.

Enke end and then met an old Indian
setting out his traps. He told them
the river or creck they were following
run on 2 few miles farther and headed
into the mountains and glaciers. He
had been there twenty years and had
been to the head of the creek, but he
could never find a pass to the river on
the other side of the mountain. The
party came back to town. The next
step will probably be announced from
Victoria in the future.

SALMON FOR FRANCOIS LAKE

Capt. Hearn, Messrs. McRae and
Stratton left Wednesday for Francois
Lake with fifty million salmon eggs
to be planted there. Up to the pre-
sent there are no salmon in the lakes
of that district and this experiment
will be very = interesting. Francois
Enke is well stocked with many otber
kinds of valuable food fish and the
commercial fishing industty there is
growing into importance. If. salmon

_jean be added to the fish of the inter-

ior lakes it will greatly increase the
iniportance of the Industry ag well as
add to the attractions of the district
