Allicrton Pollcc Officer 0n Trail 0f lloodluns

Police Officer George W. Oliver ywterday was on the trail of a group of pranksters who disturbed evening services of: Albertorn Naz- arene Church by pelting turnip; at the front door and by throwing heavy missiles at the walls and roof pf the building.

Policeman Oliver was in the old church when the disturbance oc- curred. He tip-teed out to the porch and then chased after the fleeing hoodlums. All escaped in the darkness. '

Last night Mr. Oliver said “it was pretty hard to tell" yet who the guilty parties were but he thought “there’1l be more" to the affair.

He believed there were "six or seven of them" in the party. A1- though he had not caught up with them yet, “I am not. through,” he stated emphatically.

The police officer expected he would have rounded up the “dis- turbers" in a week's time.

Telling Ducks With a. Dog at Yarmouth, NJS.

(By Ward Thorne)

The grey mists of early morning covered the big lake with an im- penetrable pail. Even the trees un- der which we sat and the bushes within a few feet of our hiding place were unreal in appearance and distorted by the thick blanket which enveloped us. But there was nothing unreal about the whistle and throb of wings passing over- head and the conversational quack- quac-k of ducks out on the water as flock after flock passed the blind and Joined the others of their kind.

I had heard of tolling ducks with dogs and it didn't sound sensible to mo. Shooting with decoys? Yes, i had done that. Flight shooting as the birds passed a point of land or flew over boats in the water was on old tale to me, and jumping the birds out of sloughs and narrow creeks was also familiar. But to‘.- ling ducks ‘from far out on the lake or river and bringing them within gunshot with a yellow dog-No, I was from Missouri and had to be shown. As c. result of my incred- ulity I was now shivering in this, blind with Rodney Hemeon, Town Clerk of Yarmouth, N.S. Behind us, quivering with anticipation, lay his little River Duck Dog. It. is a breed not much known outside of Yarmouth County and has not been classified as a breed-mot because it is not worthy of it, but. because no real effort. has been made in this direction. A few of the sporting enthusiasts, among them, Mr. Hem- eon, are trying to keep the strain pure and are breeding from the best type of dog.

Shortly, old Sol began to exert his influence on the dense mist and slowly it began to break into fan- tastic shadows as it faded away from the rising sun. More ducks kept coming in, sometimes only a. few, again a flock or perhaps two or three dozens. But they s11 11f. about half a. mile from us and Join- ed the big raft of birds. Right then I gave up all hopes bf n. black duck dinner, and I whispered to Rodney, "If that yellow dog can bring those ducks within gunshot, I'll cat my shirt, sweater and rubber boots." 11c gave ma a look saying, "A couple of fat ducks would help them down, so here goes."

He motioned- the dog out of the blind and tossed a small slick on the short, narrow open strip of beach before us. 'I‘hero the dog played with the stick, tossing it in the air, rolling on 1c, doing every- thing that could be done to it and all the time never leaving the open, but playing up and down in a space close to the water and about ten feet long and two or three wide. ln a short time, a durk lifted its head and started‘ shoreward. Another Joined it and then another and pre- sently the whole raft was forging in our direction in the form of a great wedge, apex towards us. I watched the birds, fascinated with the spectacle, and wondered what the dog would do when the birds were near shore. Would he Jump 1n the water and bark, thus spoiling any chance of a shot? There was no need of any worry. That sweet little bitch Just kept. on playing as if oblivlom of such a thing as a duck. But one could sec by the tcnseness of every muscle m her body that she appreciated the situa- tion as keenly as we did. Believe it or not, those ducks came right to the anon. As they closed in, Rod- ney govo a low chirp and the tollcr came into the blind and laid down all aquivcr for the shots which it knew would follow.

The ducks were apparently dazed for a brief moment by the disap- pearance of their bode star, but only for u moment, because a black duck is a wise bird and we could see sus- picion in every eye. ‘rhea Rodney whispered, “Tnko two on the outer fringe as they rise." and we stopped info the open. I almost forgot to shoot, the roar of wings was so dis- concerting, but managed to get two birds while’ Rodney pulled down three.

On order, each bird was brought to hand in a thoroughly competent manner.

We lay book in the blind and talked of the Uttlc River Duck Dog and I was told of some of its feats u collar and retriever. In the old

Minister Moves Second Reading Of Bill To Pay Western Farmers $6,850,000.

(C. P. by Guardian's Special Wire)

OTTAWA, March 2‘1—-Agricul- ture Minister Gardiner moved sec- ond reading in the House of Cnm- mons today of the government bill to pay $6,850,000 to western pool farmers who received less than 60 cent; a bushel trr the 19311 when‘. crops and to make certain adjust- merits in coarse grains payments.

I1: was an extraordinary bill, the Minister admitted, but. it was prompted by an extraordinary sit- uation. l-Ic traced the history of wheat pools in the West and their early successes. Difficulties arose in 1928 when wheat prices began to slip. Conditions became worse in 1929 when an initial price of $1 | was set and the market slipped below that. l

On the downward market, the banks insisted on more mecurity, Mr. Gardiner continued. Instead of selling wheat, the pool went to the provincial governments for a guarantee to the banks against loss. The initial price of $1 was but at the end of the season the price was 86 cents.

By the end of the 1929 crop, the pools had a carryover of 43,000,000 , bushels. In July. 1930 the end of the crop year, the Dominion was drown into the picture.

For the 1930 crop, the pools set an initial price of '10 cents but the market slipped from 95 3-8 cents lo 85 5-8. This necessitated drop- ping the initial price, because of the margin with the 112331-15, 60 cents. Then it. was dropped to 55 cents when wheat hit 72 1-2 cents and finally to 50 cents when the market dropped to 65 5-8-

About 70 per cent of pool farm- crs sold wheat at 60 cents or higher, Mr. Gardiner said.

The Minister then turned to the Dominion's part in the wheat sit- uation.

John I. McFarland was appoint- ed gcneral manager of the central selling agency of the pools in No- vember, 1930, to sell the 1929 and 1930 crops, the Minister related. He changed the selling policy of the pools from direct contact with

13.: pcan buyers to working through the Winnipeg grain ex- change.

In June i931—stii1 in the 1930 crop year-Conservative leader Bennett turned down a suggestion of a wheat borad. Mr. Gardiner said, countering with a proposal for a selling corporation. In the meantime, the three Western Provinces had paid the banks $25,- 000,000 as a result of their pool guarantees.

In Jan. 1931, the Dominion Gov- ernment stepped in with a guar- antee to the banks against loss from pool operations including in- itial prices in 1930. Forced liqui- dation of wheat, it believed, would mean a national calamity. Later in April, 1933, the government took power to name the date when the pool should sell its wheat, includ- ing 1930 wheat.

FASHION TRENDS

Here are spring fashion trends to watch out for: Kimono sleeves of the Chinese type; straight little collars; Jackets with capes and Jackets -which fit the figure closely; others which flare out to extreme width at the hem, being a quaint mixture of both the Victorian and the Chinese styles.

And last but not_ least, bolero Jackets of the type that were worn in Edwardian days. .

We are so much in love with Jackets now that many of the new- est afternoon frocks are cut to give a Jacket and skirt effect which is very smart.

Some of the loveliast of ft wollem are being featured in all the collections, and in is in this tyrpc of woollen that many of the ensembles of blouse skirt and Jacket, or dress and Jacket. for town wear are being made.

days of market shooting and care- less slaughter gof ducks, the dog played a major part. It was not un- usual for thirty or forty ducks to be taken at one toll by two men — o shot on the water into the massed pack and another on the rise. It was then that the retrieving quali- ties of this dog were brought. znto full play. Wounded birds were fol- lowed over and under the water and oglland and few wounded ducks un- a e to fly were lost. Wate; condi- tions ere nothing to this dog. Af- ter retrieving in ice cold water, it wah always ready and anxious to work again.

More ducks arrived and the scene was enacted again with only a small flock this time. But the birds came in as before and we got a brace apiece and decided to go home. Enouglvs enough.

I didn't est my clothing, but I did eat duck and the next. time I hear strange stories, I'll not be quite so skeptical. Ducks do come to the do] and it is mighty fine sport

watching them do it.

The residents of Cape Traverse and surrounding districts were shocked to learn of the very sud»- den death of Mr. Albert Bherren, an elderly and highly respected citi- zen, on Friday morning, March 2'1. He had apparently been in his usu- al health, and had been out around that morning attending to his usu- al xhores. but after returning f0 the house he was suddenly strick- en and passed away in a. fe-w mo- ment's. Their many friends sin- cerely sympathize with his family in their bereavement.
