Owo Days Sports
.
The Nineth Annual Windermere Dis- trict Raves and Sporte were held last Friday and Saturday at Windermere. The weather was fine throughout and at times exceptionally hot. The sports were excellent and the greatest interest manifested in them up to neon Saturday when along delay occurred in starting the aquatic eporte, which was greatly gegretted by all.
Karly Friday morning word wae re- ceived from Capt. Armetrong that the Ptarmigan would not arrive until 4 or 5 o'clock in the afternoon with the Golden contingent, and the managing committee thereupon announced that the program e@hould be carried out without awaiting the steamers arrival.
Horse Racing.
It wae a jolly, good natured crowd that had assembled at the race track at 11 o'clock Saturday morning, when R. A. Kimpton mounted the stand and declar- ed puuls open for the Quarter-Mile Puny race in heats and puvile suld freely at times.
In thie race H. G. Gordon's Prince won firet money in two heate, Frank Nickeleon’es Kootenay Boy eecoud and Walter Stoddart’e Goldie third place,
while the Fort Steele Ludiau’s Roy |
Cruthers came in last.
Fur the benefit of the Golden excur- Gioniote the Hall-Mile was replaced by the Quarter: Mile Open, in heats. This vace was alan god Kootenay Boy taking firet place in two heata, Moses’ Bay Billy taking second in the firet heat, cloeely foilowed by Ed. Morigeau’s Bummer, while Francie’ Sorrel Jim wae last in both heats. In the second heat Bay Hilly and Bunsmer were so cluse that a lively dispute arose, which waa ultimate- ly eettle by the owners theme ives.
A cide race was got up aud run be- tween the heate with ponies owned by an Indian atid W. Stoddart, and a lot of fun wae taken out ot it, the Indian’s horee winning. The Indians evidently knew this pony well as they were mort anxious to bet on it, and produced more goney than on any other race.
Rifle Shouting.
In the afternoon the crowd repaired to the rifle range, where five men from the Windermere Rifle Association competed with an equal number from the Wilmer Rifle Association for eilver medale and a xold medal for the highest individual ecore. This contest was watched with intense interest by the spectators, every ehot being closely tabbed and compared with the opponent’s, Everything wae in favor of a big ecores, but while no one sade a big total, neverthelees the score throughout wae very good. As will be even bythe acure below Wilmer wae 4 pointe ahead at the 200 range, but at the 500 Windermere pulled up and yot 11 points ahead, and then at the 600 the datter dropped down again, but mauaged to win by 4 points, Thug the keenest interest was kept’ @p until the lest shot was Gred, Witdermere. won with a total of 401 pointe irum Wilmer with 387 pointe, but-J. 8.

Aseociation was to have contested in the ride match, but the committees decided that they would not be aHowed to choot unless they shot on Friday and ae the eteamer did not arrive until near dark this was impossible and naturally there wae considerable argument on this ac- count.
The Merry Dance The arrival of the Ptarmigan wae late but she brought ina much large crowd of excureionsite than was expected and after allowing them ample time to pre- pare, the dance was sturted, the heli being filled with lovere of the light fan- tastic. In fact, it was remarked that never before were there eo many ladies present a» on this occasion, and «hile ) she costumes worn were not remarkab‘e j for their atyle, they were exceptionally pretty and comfurtable looking. The music supplied by Prof. Harrieon's or- chestra wae good, ae was aleo the lunch. eon enpplied by Mrs. M. Cameron. The dancing continued until nearly 3a. m., when all joined in singing “God Save the King", and retired, tired but happy. Sweepstake Shooting. Saturday morning the trap shooting \was the first attraction, and ten names were entered fur the Sweepstake. A auaber of “no birds’ were called and several times there was trouble with the trap, but the light was yood and it is hard to account for eo mach poor eheot- tng. Yetevery person was pleased to vee Willie Taynton take first prize with S birds out of ten, which also entitled him to hold the Hudson Bay Co. Cup for the higheat acore in the Windermere District Team, Willie is only 15 yeare of age and ashe alvo won the cup last year he was cheered luetily, and if he wins it next year it will be his to keep. Mesere. McDermot, Gordon and War- ren tied with 7 birds each to their credit and on shooting off the tie Mr. Warren won eecond money and Mr. McDermout third, Following is the score: G. B. MeDermot J.

Horse Racing. The next events took place on the rave
track, and the horse racing prove even more interesting than on the previous day. Everyone was anxious to see H. G. Gordon's horse Prince run, which wae riden by Dr. McAbe+, and they were not disappointed in the horse or rider, but they were with the other horses, as Prince ran away from thew all ander a tight rein,

Aquntic Sports.
In the afternoon the water sports, which im previous years: were eo much enjoyed, were badly muddted, the result, it is said, of leaving too much work for one man, and none regret it more than the managing committee. For upwards of an hour the crowd lined the banks, while a few friends were rowed to the steamer anchored a quarter of a mite out and the rafte towed out and anchored for the base bail. When at last a Ptar- migan team and a Windermeie team began to play the people were teo hot
and weary to enjoy it. Two innings were played, each side ecore one and then the game was called adraw. There was some real amusement in the game and allthe men were good swimmere, but there ie little nee trying to amuse a crowd wheu they are hot and angry.
The Water Polo was declaired off as no team entered against Windermere.
The Swimming rave took better and firet .prise was won earily by L. Cecil | and eecond by A. Mitchell, Frank Mar- veau being the only other competitor.
A lot of fun was taken out of the Hurdle Swimaning race, which was won by L. Cecil, Frauk Morigeau and A. Mitchell.
The Tandem Canve race was won by P. Hart and’ B. Mewiteon against J. EL. Stoddart aud W. Taynton. The course war along one and teveral times it ap- peared dikely to be a close finish, but the former team flually won easily, amid much cheering.
Athletic Sports.
Returning up tewn the crowd became more cheerful and a lively interest was taken in the fot races. e
A lot of betting was done on the 100- Yard Fout race, F. L. Snook being the favorite and R. Hammond next, but an Indian ‘Pete’? proved the winner by three or four feet ahead of Snook, while Hammond took fourth place, although Snook stepped in a hole, causing bim to lose speed.

A good trail han been completed from the end of Toby road to the Nettie M. group, where Mesere. Washburn and Starke recently made the big strike, and Tueeday a force of four miners were put to work to start development work. It is intended to sack the ore as the work proceeds and make a trial shipment of a few car loade before navigation closes.
Owing to some trouble with the gas- oline engine, which supplies air for the long tunnel at the Paradies mine, all the minere came down the hill last week and will return upon the arrival of some material thatie necessary for repairing the engine, which is expected on the boat tomorrow.

A Wonderful Country
“You have a wonderful country here!” This was the the first expression made by Mr. Alex. Lucas when he met The Outcrop reporter. Mr. Lucas is the chief assessor of the Kootenays and ought to know whereof he speaks. He drove up from Solden and after going well over the valley with Mr. Lang was just getting in arig to go south to meet his Cranbrook deputy at Mud creek, from where he will continue his work in that district. Continuing he said:
“TI had little idea of the extent and wealth of the Columbia Valley. Like most of the people in West Koot- enay I supposed this was not a fruit country, but I have seen for myself that my impressions were wrong. I have seen the fruit growing and it is good; and it is only a mat- ter of time until we must take a back seat. You have so much more available land than we have. In four miles along this valley there is more land than all the little patches put together around Nelson. Why, you have far more land to cultivate than there is in the Boundary The widest part of the Kettle River valley is not more than three or four miles wide and there is very little of it that width. The svil here seems the same as the Kootenay and lake Boundary countries, there is more water here for irrigating with, and I think asa fruit country it is equally as good. You may have a little colder winters, but look at the fruit you have actually growing. The only
difference 1 can see between the Boundary and here is that jover there land owners say their land is worth from $100: to $300 an acre and here some say their land is not worth anything,” and the assessor siniled grimly, but continued:
“Tam willing to bet that Jand will be selling at from three to four times the highest prices now asked within two vears. Well, good-bye. I’m c»ming to see this coun- try again.”
“Don't forget to tell everybody vou meet about this country,” shouted the reporter. “Whoa, I will! I will tell the Nelson reporters about But you will not need to advertise it when the railway People will flock in here then and you'll
have a great country.”

THE OUTCORP
BY W.P.EVANS, PROP.

WILMER, BC., AUG, 10, 1905.
Every fruit grower should not fail to read the official notice printed elsewhere in this issue anent “License for selling nursery stock”. It is of utmost importance that the fruit grower should buy his plants and seeds from nur- series authorized to carry on business by the governinent. By granting ‘licenses. to'the nursery men the government is enabled to see that the
stuck sent out by them is healthy and not infected.
What a lot there is in a name, and how much fun some folks have when they see their name in type if the spelling is not quite correct. and how seriously others take it. Recently The Outcrop was furnished with a list ot names and whether the writer was joking or not the ladies whom it was supposed to des. ignate have been so much amused that they have sent copies of this paper across the continent to their friends. I) is an ill wind, ete.
A few tourists have found their way up the Columbia Valley this season and al: ready the effect is manifested by their sending for thei friends to follow them. Thi: is the very best kind of ad- vertising we can get and is certain to be effective. It i+ proof positive that tourists coming here are satisfied that they are getting their money’s worth, and that is all that is necessary. When tourists, who have travelled in all parts of the world, after cross- ing the continent come here and decide to stay for weeks and send for their friends, it is, to say the least, a most hopeful sign and should be made known,
The Dominion Exhibition to be heid at New Westmin ster is now being thoroughly advertised and is certain to prove one of the greatest ads. B, C. has ever enjoyed. The management writes The Out- crop that “all entries close on Wednesday, Sept. 13,” and is anxious that intending ex- hibitors should know this and govern themselves according- ly. It is expected that this valley will have a good ex- hibit as the Hon. Mr. Wells js said to have charge of it and he may be depended up- on to see that it is complete. Officer Cameron is to assist in collecting fruit and other agricultural products and we would urge upon all who can assist to dv so and have their exhibits ready in good time.

Good Seed Oats
Editor The Outcrop:
Dear tir,—I recently visited Mr. W. Kinnee’s ranch and believe it to be great- ly to the interest of the valley to call attention to hie phenomenal oat crop in order that other ranchers may purchase their seed from him. Beyond the few seed oate for my ranch [ have purchas- ed from Mr. Kennee I have not a cent of interest in his crop. He owes me nothing nor [ him, but ag a man of large experience in grain-raising in Manitoba and being fully alive to the importance of sowing only the beat seed, I wish to call your readera attention to this crop.
“The oate, Mr. Kinnee informs me, are known as ‘National’? oate. They were tiret evolved in Wisconsin and the eeeds- men tate they can furnish positive proof of crops of over 300 bushels to the acre. Theee, of course, can only be on specially I
thousands of vat fielde I have paseed
prepared acres, but have never, in
through, Been oate to equal these. Let
the men who say ‘outs do not stool in thie valley’? eee Mr. Kennee’s crop, and then reverse their jadgment on this point. My own oats this vear are the Tartar King’, a good, sound, well filled oat. IT shall not keepa bushel for seed next year. [| would consider | would be a fool to do 80, when these National oats are obtainable in the valley.
Not one pound of Mr. Kinnee’s oats should be fed. They should all go into
the ground for seed. It is with this object in view L have trespassed on your apace, TInagricultural matters nothing impressed me more in the valley last year than the lamentably poor oate I saw grown, Is it impossible to impress on ranchers the folly of growing bad seed? If they would only see the crop Ihave alluded to they might think the old haphazard slap-your-feed-oats-into- the-ground-and-turn-the-water-on atyle of farming is not the best after all, Yours faithfully,
Hexny Toke Muyxy. —<e
