Our

Oyster Industry

Muoh ltas been heard at Ottawa recently rc- garding the superiority of our Prince Edward Island oysters. This is excellent publicity for the industry, which has made marked progress in roectit years. Herc is some interesting infor- mation oit the subioct, from the latest issue of Fisheries N 2w: Bulletin: u _,

Plenty of sun helps plants grow, and, iii- directly, oysters with them. Everybody knew the first of these hits of truth, bttt perhaps 58W people the second. As a matter ‘of fact, in this case plant growth and oyster growth really spell cause-and-effoct, as shown by some investigations made last year by the men of the Federal Fish- eries Rcscurclt Boat-d carrying on the scientific side of the Department of Fisheries DFOZYB-m 5°!‘ extending commercial oyster farming in the Maritime Provinces. _ _

Microscopic marine plant: and nucroooﬂptc animal growths make up the "plankton" on which oysters feed, and not Only OYSRTS. 0i course, but many fish. Since food supply must obviously be a main factor in oyster growth, the Research Board's oyster people began an m: tensive investigation in a Prince Edward Island area last year into variations in plankton sup- ibly atftl the causes of them. To quote from a import by Dr. C, I. Kerswill, the scientist in im- mediate charge of the oyster development 91'0- ‘m-gm, tlte.preliminary results 6f the study ihowed that “fluctuations in the abundance of plankton were correlated with fluctuations in

the total hours of sunlight per week, and peaks

in t th’ cliatel followed the peaks inﬁiirfllr-ttftioitiibutfdxliixnre." Cr. in other phras- iaz. plenty of sunlight helped the marine plants

grow, and oyster growth came alone. 100- Imi-

The Fisheries Dc- ptu-tmentﬁi program for developing Atlantic Coast oyster culture on a commercial scale 20f under way in Prince Edward Islandiiti the late '2o's and the early '30's, and it is in that prov- ince that the iuost progress has been mzide. In i936 the program was extended to Nova Scott’: when that province transferred its oyster areas to Federal control, as Prince Edward Island had previously done. -

Iii New Brunswick the province has re- tained control of most of the areas, but in i944 it transferred the Gloucester County grounds to Dominion jurisdiction and oyster farming is be- ing carried on there quite actively by a number of lessees. Gloucester production in '44 exceed- ctl 10,000 barrels, but credit for that is not traceable to the new program alone since county production had been increasing before the trans- ter of the areas. 1n New Brunswick's Shediac 15H)’ the Oyster areas are also under Federal jurisdiction — the provincial authorities made the transfer several years ago — but certain difficulties local to the region have held back development. ~

In British Columbia, the fourth of the Doniinioifs oyster-producing provinces, the oyster areas are all tinder proviiisial iurisdictiou.

How Britain Paid

The British are so given to understatement that it is ivorth having ou record the figures giv- en iii a speech in Toronto the other day by Sir James Somerville, CBC, KBE, DSO, Admiral of the Fleet. Casualties are the rcal criterion of a nation's war effort, and it is this field that Britain suffered most grievouslv.

According to the Admiral of the Fleet, the United Kingdom, which has only ortethit-d of the population of the United States, sustained 1,302,000 casualties, compared with 1,070,000 casualties suffered by the Americans. The Uni- ted Kingdom lost in killed _'t25,0oo, as against 252,000 Americans killed. Its merchant iiayies lost 31,000 officers and men, as compared with just over 800 in the United States merchant navy.

To the criticism-that the British did not make itiiich of a contribution in the Pacific. Sir lames gave ths answer: "By the time the lap- ariese surrendered. the British Pacific Fleet con- sisted of 40o ships manned by more than 238,- ooo officers and men, and the Southeast Asia Naval Forces included a further I70 ships inatt- tied by 176,000 officers and men. In view of our commitments elsewhere. I don't consider that a negligible contribution.”

In Canada there are over 130 distinct spec- ies of trees. Only 33 of these are conifers or softwoods, but they comprise three-quarters of the staridhg timber aitd supply nearly 8o per cent of I e wood used for all purposes. 0f the dcciduous-lcaved or hardwood species, only about a dozen are of commercial importance as compared with twice“ thft number of conifers.

In days of yore reformers and progressive citizens wanting to have things done met in cottclavc and thrashed the subicct out. Now iii these decadent days of public spirit, it is nec- essary to have dinners or banquets of some sort before an audience is obtainable; even then it is constituted largely of “yes” men. It was Na- poleoti, as First Consul. who told his colleagues -—“I doift want you to agree with me, I want you to disagree with me in order that I may come to a right conclusion.”

We will soon be able to build a new house and occupy it all within 30 days. To speed up housing conutruction and to save labour a new British structure is being demonstrated at m exhibition of concrete houses near London at Eastcote, Middlescx. Wooden frames and huge moulds for the walls,- with the necessary open- ings for windows, doors, water and gas-pipes. etc., are erected on the site by means of clanes. The concrete is then poured into the moulds re- sulting in 12-inch thick, weather-proof and heat- retaining walls. The wooden frames and moulds- are then removed by the cranes. The front of the house-is built of bricks and the roof i: tare-fabricated. It is estimated that the erection can be carried out. to a great ex- tent, by unskilled labour and can be made hab- itable within a month.

The Plastic B eon Ia faced with two major pro lems: he must rebuild what ls lost-eyelids, nose. even the whole lower jaw - and repair disfigurement to the best of his ability: and he must combat the mental depression so often found In these cases.

The wounded fighting man, sol- dier, sailor m‘ airmen, ls proud of lils wcund, for it Ls the badge of his heroism: but the man with a facial disfigurement instinctively shrinks from the public gaze, and frequently develops a depression which is just as Important from therpolnt of view o!- treat-ment as his wound Is. It Is an unfortunate fact that a few wives and sweet/- hearts have failed their men In this crisis, but; the vast majority are only too anxious to love and honour them for their sacrifice. If only they can be given the oppor- tunity. It ls the job then, of the medical and nursing staff to bring those men out of themselves. to subd their sensltlveneas and ‘to farce the world again. "

The sisters and nurses of than Plastic Untfa are the finest In their profession. for the dressing of a burnt face needs skill and gentlr ness of the highest order; but they also show beyond doubt that they find nothing NDUJSIVQ In the "boys” disfigurement. The boys themselves are urged to do with- out covering as soon as the wound permits, and as far as the Unit ls concemcd. no notice whatever Is taken of “ Fsflgurementf’ plans for reconstruction and comment on progress are dlscumed openly in front of them. and the man litm- self ls soon taklruz a pride In his new pieces-eyelids, nose or jaw.
