Consigned to R. Glendenning, en-
tomologist at the dominion Experi-
mental Farm, Agassiz, the shipment
of parasites came from the gover-
ment parasite laboratory at Belleville,
Ontario being shipped by express in
refrigerated cans. The parasites are
in carefully screened boxes when
they go travelling and ice and excel-
sior are packed around them in the
cans to keep them cool and healthy
during the hot trans-prairie trip.

This is the second shipment receiy-
ed this year, and the fourth in two
years. Good results have been ob-
tained with parasite liberations for
other Insects, and Mr. Glendenning is
hopeful that the ascosgaster and the
macrocentrus will likewise prove help-
ful. Experiments in regard to cultiva-
‘tion and sprays are also being carried
out.

Lawrence D. Fairbairn, well-known
in this district as chemistry instructor
in Sumas,Nooksack high school, has
been appointed assistant superinten-
dent of Crow Indian Reservation at
Hardin, Mont., and has left Sumas to
take up his new duties.

Upper Sumas Women’s Institute er-
tertalned members of the Poplar and
Huntingdon institutes at the home
of Mrs. W. G. Fadden on Tuesday.
About forty ladies were present, the |
guest of honor being Mrs. W. H. Fad- |
den of New Westminster, whose work |
in the Upper Sumas W. I. was stres-
sed by the president, Mrs. J. Hunter.
The president of Poplar, Mrs, Wil.
son, and of Huntingdon, Mrs. C,
wood, expressed the thanks of then
members for the hospitality extond-
ed, and an invitation was issued to
meet in Poplar hall on Oct. 1.

A marriage of interest in the Ab-

LAKERS

MENNONITES MAY PROVIDE
OWN HOSPITAL FACILITIES

Plans to provide hospiial facilities
exclusively for Mennonite familics
have received intermittent consider-
ation by leaders at Yarrow and Pear-
donville in recent months, and it ts
possible that a emall building may
be constructed for this purpose, This
week, at a meeting in Yarrow, need
of more school accommodation was
considered, and a suggestion made
that an addition be built to Yarrow
school to be temporarily used for a
maternity ward and for cases of sim-
ple sickness.

“By more economical care of our
sick we relieve municipalities of some
of the burdensome expense” Mr. Neu-
feld, one of the colony leaders inform-
ed The News.

The Mennonites have had in oper-
ation for some time a health insur
ance plan which they had proven sa-
tisfactory in their Saskatchewan co-

measured instruments, the part can
be assembled into accurate and ser-
viceable rifles, Entire families gather
In the community rifle factory to
speed the manufacture of these
weapons, No one is too young or
too old, apparently, to lend a helping
hand.

One workman drills breech blocks
with a primitive bow-drill A second
bores out rifle barrels from long rods
shoving in the cutting iron by hand.
Another cuts spiral grooves to serve
as rifling in the barrels with a hand-
operated “rifler.”” A fourth smoothes
wooden stockes with a file. Boys not
yet in their ‘teen, assemble parts. Ex,
erlenced gunsmiths fit stocks to bar-
rels.

The steel forgings are turned out
by skilled workers, who operate goat
skin bellows, They have no native
steel supply, but make their parts
from weapons obtained from travelers
and British native troops,

An Aridi fifle now costs the pur-
chaser about $30. But a few years
ago the price was three hundred dol-
lars. Each of the villages in which,
the rifles are made is a small fort in
itself, surrounded by high mud-and-
stone walls, surmounted by a watch
tower with rifle slots. The court-
yard of a native family can be entered
only through one very low hole in
the wall, which is guarded by the
efficient rifles made by the family it-
self.

also Yarrow and Sardis. In the mat-
