Fish Ponds At Cardigan Keep Streams Stocked-
Over one million fingerlings— speckled and rainbow trout as well as Atlantic salmon — have been reared at and released from the rearing ponds at Buc- hanan’s Mills about 11/4 miles above Cardigan.
In 24 circular ponds, each 24 feet in diameter and 2V2 feet deep at the centre the fish fry are released each Spring from the fish hatchery known as Kelly’s pond at Southport. '
In the fall of the year, Oct- ober and November these fish have grown to three to five in- ches in length and are released to the various streams through- out the province, thus insuring a steady supply of game fish which will continue to uphold a fis‘hermia-n's paradise.
FED THREE TIMES
The fish in the rearing ponds are fed three times daily and consume ‘about 1,000 lbs of meat, chiefly beef and pork

liver but when this is scarce the diet is changed to finely ground frozen sardines.
The most potent enemy of the young fish are the kingfisher and the blue heron. These birds would spend all their time around the rearing ponds pick- ing up an easy prey in the shal- low pools.
However, the staff at the ponds '
have taken steps to eliminate this hazard to their helpless charges and to date have des- troyed 63 kingfishers and 51x herons by steel trap and, shot- gun. The herons are usually shot about daybreak.
TOURIST ATTRACTION
The Cardigan rearing ponds have become quite a tourist at- traction. Each week more'than 200 cars visit the establishment with a particularly large numl her on Sundays.
The first fish hatchery to be established in Canada was at Newcastle, Ontario in 1868 and the first on Prince Edward Is- land was at Dun-k River in 1880.
In I906 the Dunk River hatch- ery was discontinued and the one at Kelly’s Pond in South- port started. At first atlantic salmon and a limited number of speckled trout were hatched and liberated as fry but early in the
twenties a larger number of speckled trout was carried to- gether with rainbow trout. The
latter were introduced to 'meet the ever growing demand of the sport fishermen.
‘ As the automobile became more prominent and the number of tourists increased, it was soon seen that the hatchery at Southport was inadequate and that rearing ponds would have to be constructed. »

pite a new three-year master con- tract agreed upon Thursday night by GM and the United Auto Workers.
The UAW’s 250,000 GM employ- ees‘walked off their jobs when a strike deadline passed without an agreement.
After a settlement was reached, they stayed out with the blessing of UAW president Walter Reuther to back up local demands.
GM said it hoped the trickle of workers going back their jobs wduld start Monday, putting the World's largest manutacturing concern back in the race for pro- duction and sale of 1959 model cars.
To become effective. the na- tional contract must be ratified by UAW locals by Oct. 20.
Ford Motor Company, which came to terms with the UAW two weeks ago after a seven - hour companywide strike, only now is nearing full resumption of pro- due-tion. ’

OTTAWA IC «Canada's 195i. wheat crop Friday was officially estimated at 367300.000 bushels, some 28,000,000 higher than the bureau of statistics' first estimate issued last month.
While a crop of this size would still be below average, the out- look for its yield has brightened considerably, with indications that about 85 per 'cent of all the Prairie cereals now have been harvested. The average for the last 10 years was 465,000,000 bushels. .
The latest forecast of produc- tion is based on yields indies/tel on Sept. 15. ‘
A wheat crop of 367,300,000 bushels wailld be just slightly be- low last year’s 370,508,000. But the average yield of 17.6 bushels an acre was unchanged from last year. A c r e a g I! had declined slightly.
Virtually all other major grain production estimates were higier than originally f o r e c a s t last
month. ' .
