During the past three weeks there has been more activity among fish- ermen, packers, ‘buyers and ship- pers than probably for any season during the last ten years, due partly to the demand from Eur- opean buyers this summer. For many years there has been little demand from the European trade but this summer the demand has been so great that practically all stocks oi canned lobsters have been cleared out.

BRIAND WILL HEAD GUNMEN

PARIS, Aug. 17.—(U.P.)—Paclfist though he is. Foreign Minister Ar- istide Briand is scheduled to become first honorary President of the In- ternational League oi Gunmen. Not the Chicago type, but lovers that shoot game and grouse.

Already i6 nations, responding to the invitation oi the country- loving Foreign Minister of France, have approved of the new int/emo- tional league. The council of the league has Just held its first general meeting, which discussed codifica- tion of international laws relating to hunting.

Anxious to bring about co- ordination of game laws, the league has made some important recom- mendations, especially affecting the abolition o! customs restrictions on importation of gaming arms, as well as the unification oi the size of shot used in sporting guns. Delegates recommended that hunting of geese and other water-birds be conducted only with guns, and that nets, traps and similar appliances be interna- tionally pmhibited.

It is proposed aiso that measures be taken to cease hunting waterfowl at nesting time; that dates of open- ing and closing o1’ i-unting migra- tory birds be fixed icy agreement among the nations; that the 1902 convention for protection of birds be ratified throughout the world; that ships using oil-fuel be forced to use equipment to prevent pollut- ing the sea. and poisoning bird-life;

HUNTER RIVER AND VICINITY

Miss Cassie Rattray had as her guests recently the Misses Shaw and Cudmore oi Brackley Point for a week.

On account of the unfavourable, weather the ice cream festival and‘ entertainment that was to be held in Wheatley River Rink has been postponed.

Several people have complained lately of the depred-atlons by skunks to their poultry flocks. We consider that prices have been put on the heads of far more welcome creatures than the skunk, and won- der why the government hesitates to put a small iprice on each one killed. This time o! year their-fur is oi no value and thos e that in other seasons killed them for their fur do not bother with them. One farmer in Greenvaie complained oi losing forty chickens in one night. We heard of a lady losing all but eighteen out of a. hundred and fifty. A price on the head, or for that matter on the tail oi each, would send us all skunk hunting these hard times.-L
