Yesterday we examined a cart just turned out by Ott Gallant. It was a perfect beauty in natural wood and quite equal to anything we have seen around the race lrackl. Ott is busy as usual re- pairing sulkles, some half dozen of them being in his workshop. and occasionally when he gets time, making new carts. He plans this winter to build a few sulkies as well.

for the City title. The W ‘ " andParkdale teams in each league were_ awarded byes to the finals.

A total of thirteen Bantam and Midget teams will play together in the two leagues in the City during the summer.

A starting schedule was drawn up for both loops with the re- mainder of the schedules to be drawn up by the coaches in the different leagues. The Charlotte- town winners must be declared before August Si. to enable the playoffs with Summerside to be completed before school re-opens.

It was also decided that if a player plays one game for a team in one section of the City. he must play ball in that section of the City for the remainder of the year.

Coaches expressed the hope that the senior ballpiayers in each section of the City would umpire all the games.

Following is the schedule of the first section:

Beaver are not increasing in the Province as fast as they should. They have no natural enemies like wiidcats and lynx to prey upon them and accordingly should multiply at a far greater rate then they have up to the present. There is one factor that holds them down...sait water. When roaming around looking for a dam building site they frequent- ly find themselves in tidal wat- ers. If they remain in this en- vironment for any length of time. say s couple of weeks. their fate is sealed. They gradually sicken, become dull and doped and fin- ally die. Every spring a few bodies are found along our salt water shores by farmers and fish- ermen. ‘This spring a beaver was seen hanging. around Vernon Bridge. The animal was reported to be slow of movement and in- clined to be indifferent to human beings which is not a natural trait of the beaver. It would spend most of its time. either resting on an ice cake or swim- ming along them. It finally dis- appeared and a week or so later Irving Nicholson. Orwell Cove. found a dead beaver on their shore that apparently had only recently died.

Earlier in the spring Dick Jen- kins. Pownal. phoned the R.C.M.P. office that a beaver was wander- ing in a deep drain near Pownal village and appeared confused. He was instructed to capture it

I saw it the following morning and helped shift it to his empty garage which was drier and more suited as a temporary quarter. The next morning when I arrived with a proper crate with the intention of transport- ing the animal to more conducive surroundings I found that Mr. Beaver had ideas of his, or her. own. the morning Richard found a hole in his garage door ten inches in diameter and long splinters of wood covering a por- tion of the floor. The tracks of the animal pointed northward in the direction of a beaver colony approximately one mile distant.

This Province is rather closely settled and has few really rough

areas suitable for beaver. Ac- cordingly complalnts are contin- ually coming in to the Depart- ment concerned regarding dam- age caused by the flooding of timber or swamps suitable for pasturage purposes. In some in- stances damages are requested by the parties concerned. Beaver dams improve our fishing facilit- ies as well as attract ducks and muskrats and thus the shooter and trapper benefit. The p dams also help conserve our water sup- ply and in case ‘of forest fires

constitute a naturaL.fl.ra__brealr.. . __

However, if complaints re beaver damage continue to reach heed- quarters the Department concern- ed will have no other alternative than to either live trap the ani- mals and shin them to some other section of the Dominion or dis- pose of them in some other man- ner.
