Th benefit of the doubt was also given to 20-year-old Ronald son Rd. on Sept. 19. "I had four glasses of beer half an hour before the accident," ad- mitted Gatenby, "but I've driven with a lot more under my beit than that." a "That's an honest confession. observed the magistrate, who comes from Lindsay. "'In our court at home, they generally say they had two beers; in Peterborough, | they admit to three, but in Oshawa| they say four!" Though Gatenby contended the) beers hadn't affected his driving, the magistrate felt differently. He explained that the meaning of care- lessness was recently broadened under the law to mean "anything that a driver could have and should have done differently." Police had not detained Gatenby after the accident but they insist-| ed he leave his car at the station. Endeavoring to establish whether police had considered the man unfit to drive, Magistrate Moore| questioned Gatenby closely as to| the reason the gendarmes had re- fused to give him back his car keys. ok The court burst into laughter when Gatenby explained: "The of- ficer said 'I've got my report made out, and if I give you back the keys, I'll have to change the whole, darn thing.'

(CP) -- If you're a beer drinker -- whether sampling the frothy beverage in Montreal or Mexico, in South Amer ica or even in Japan--there's a strong possibility you will also be tasting a product of this Fraser valley centre in lower British Columbia. The product is hops, a bloom developed from the lowly stinging nettle which imparts the charac- teristic bitter flaver and aroma to beer. Since 1925, the nearby Sardis fields have been producing hops in ever-increasing quantities and now the kilns are drying out the last batches of the 1955 crop--at 5,000, Act should not come under the Jurisdiction of the provigce.

One hop farm, operatéd by Harry Ord of Yarrow, B.C., employs hanical pickers exclusively. heads of large families which hired out collectively, will have taken in more than $1,000 for the season. The pickers are paid by the pound and it takes a lot of fluffy hops to make a pound. So when the rain badgers the growers with the downy mildew it precipitates, the pickers on the other hand, cheer. The rain adds considerable weight to the hops and about 30 per cent more money in the pickers' pock- ets. MACHINES ENTER FIELD Science and the machine age, however, have combined to put a serious crimp into pickers' p:ofits, The huge machines are stationery and ate fed with the clustered vine and the bl are aut detached by long steel fingers in a fraction of the time required by human hands. There are smaller hopfields in other sections of B.C., centred mainly at Ramjoops in the Thomp- son Valley and at Lillooet, about 150 miles north of here. These are hand-picked. BIGGEST IN COMMONWEALTH The Golding farm at Sardis, op- erated by the Haas Co., is the largest hop garden in the common- ically erated by the company which pion- eered the industry in the United States. A Pacific coast hops are claimed to be far richer than any other hops grown in the world and are avidly sought by major breweries. The growers, however, are beset with mzazy difficulties, chief of which are weather and insects. The wet climate so favorable to cultivation brings with it mildew, Aphis, the flea beetle and red spider also thrive on hops. tinuous spraying from first growth in the spring to peak of maturity around Sept. 1 is the answer. Most of the B.C. crop is old-- dried and baled--in eastern Canada and fills about 40 per cent of the requirements of domestic brewer- ies. The remainder finds markets in Europe, Japan, South America, Mexico. Some B.C. hops even turn up in English stout.
