The original writer foisted on an unsuspecting public a can- ard which ls hard to overtake. Such literature might have a deterring effect on the production of pit- props which are so urgently need- ed for defence work in England.

The articles will do a relatively small amount of harm at home be- cause the producers know the au- thorlud collectors for the British government vlz. James G.

VIZ- that: In the firs: shipment of 1200 cords by Mr. McLean there was a deficiency of 30 cords. according to the reckoning of the Br. Gav- ernment sealers. One can reailllv see that belng generous by ‘be sealer to the extent of a few cublc feet ln each load will mean a whole lot when a large amount 1s handled. Mr. McLean Wlll not lose. Our Prince County Pitwood business ls a cooperative business, "nothing my- sterious" about it. Mr. McLean was selected as the assembly man. Each

Most any- thing is possible. but from personal observation (whatever that is worth) I think it is a most remom possibility. Our soil, if left plough- ed and unseeded soon gets matted close with couch grass and other weeds which render it impregnable to the effect. of the strongest wiilds to which we are subjected. I vvotlllt risk a guess that the soil of the Canadian prairies, whlcn Pl'1»(ll"§ and blows away, is of volcanic nah origin while our soil is originally ground sandstone impregnated lvitn the humus of decayed plant life since its upheaval from what 1s called now the Gulf of St. Law- rence.

Safely.‘ First When Hunting

with the hunting sieuon about to commence 1n the various provinces of Canada, now, more than ever before, eternal vigilance l: the prlce of safety. so far aa the hand- ling of firearms ln conoemed, ac- cording to C. K. Howard, head of the Fish and Game Department of the Canadian National Hallways. The recurring report-s of accidents. many of them fatal. clue to came- less or inexperienced persons hand- ling guns, has led Mr. Howard to suggest to sportsmen the need of safetv in this r-etter.

Safe carrying of guns must be- come a definite habit, sald Mr. Howard 1n making his suggestions. The golden rule ls that the muzzle of a. carried gun must. never sweep the horizmi. If an accidental dls- charge taken place lt. should and the shot into the ground before the fcet of the person carrying the gun. or into the air. 'I'he muzzle of a gun should never be allowed to point towards the person carrying it, nor towards any other person.

Guns taken into boats and ve- hicles. or ve. fences and other obstructions, should precede the person carrying them. Cartridges should be removed on entering camp or house. Loaded guru should never be aimed at anything unless the holder intends to pull the trigger. No loaded gun should be placed where it. may be knocked down by a dog or child. nor can there be any excuse for a loaded gun to stand where It may be handled by a person who dld not know that the weapon was loaded. The hunter must never forget that the man who "didn't know it was loaded" Is altvays with us.

Perhaps the most frequent cause of shooting accidents ts the dang-

shoot "at something movfrg In the bushes" without first making cer- tain that the moving object Ls the game they seek rather than a hunt- ii: companion. This has induced many sportsmen to wear clothing

natural objec s In the woods.

“Few accidents happen to peo- ple who are careful of their guns." Mr. Howard stated. “The precepts of safety are simple. If they are generally observed many lives can be saved during each hunting sea- 50h."
