Hunter C. Moody. one of the
Accessories at great
but known horse trainers in the southern United States. who sn- nually trains yearling: and 2-year- olds at Lexington, Kentucky. has retired after having spent 70 years as a trainer and driver of trot- ters. His retirement was due to advice from his physician that because of his advanced age he had better do so. Mr. Moody drove his first race in 1864 at the age of 13 and won. He excelled in the breaking and training of yearlings and when yearlings were given re- cords he wss one of the top men in that department. Many of the famous trainers turned the year- llngs over to Mr. Moody for les- sons in department prior to being put! in serious training. Among the most hated horses schooled by him were Greyhound 1.0584. world's champion trotter; Muscle- tone 2.02, winner of the Kentucky Futurity at two; Lee worthy, also winner of the Kentucky Futurity at three. and the present day champion Princess Rodney 2, 2.01 and Comanche 2, 2.02.

practice every fall during the spawning season of pitch iorklna salmon out of our streams and pools complain about salmon get- ting scarce and hard to find M
time to sit up and take notice. There are many who contend that only a very small percentage of the salmon that ascend our stresms every fall to spawn and reproduce their kind manage to escape the snares and pitfalls that await them and return to the sea. Here's wishing the Committee all the luck in the world in their ef- forts to restore salmon to their former plentitude and . . . hop- ing they do not put the cart be- fore the horse. .
Trout fishermen are beginning to worry about the sport of Kings . . . taking trout with rod and reel. What does the future hold in re- spect to trout? An ardent angler spoke to me this week-"First its lobsters that are in danger. Now its salmon that stand in need of replenishing. . .What next? To be perfectly truthful I feel that it will be some years yet before our speckled trout require the services of a special Committee to think up ways and means of halt- ing their decline in numbers. Last fall there was an exceptionally heavy spawning run of trout and this feature applies to the ma- jority of our trout streams and riv- era. Of course one never knows what a few years may bring forth. The trend of fish and game plen- titude can change quickly and with little advance wamlng.
Last fall's heavy run of trout may have been encouraged by the exceptionally high water level. Streams were running brim full and gravel bars that in ordinary seasons sporisd only a few inches of water were deeply rovered last fall and even the largest trout
no more than the dorsal fin pro- truding above water. If water covering a E-iffls is too shallow .large trout find it impossible to hold themselves erect and flop over on their sides. A 4 to 5 pound trout in a horizontal position is not altogether helpless but gets pretty panicky. I I I

Records From Both Coasts
During 1053, Jersey cows on the extreme coasts of Canada, one in Prince Edward Island. and 2 in British Columbia. vied for first place, and s new Canadian cham- pionship record in the mature. 305 day division. on 2 daily milkings. First, Lady Dora Daffodil produced 761 lbs of fat from 15,347 lbs of milk, and broke the production rec-' ord for TD. 6: A.M Poison of Vancouver. However, she only held
the record for a few days when River North Pansy 2nd from Prince Edward Island, owned by
George MaoM.lllan and Son. corn-4 leted the sensational record in they some time of 15,789 lbs of milk. 907, lbs of fat. 1 However, shortly after these two records were completed, another; outstagidlng record came in from -B. C., defeating that of Lady Donal Daffodil. Glendowan Intensiflers Nelly, a five year old cow in 305 days produced for W. H, Savage.) Lsdner. 15.422 lbs of milk, 823 lbs of fat. making her the second high-l est producing cow for milk and iatv in her class. of course, she won both Medsl Seal and Gold Seal certificates. She is a daughter of the superior sire. Iniensifier and her dam is Meadlands standard Nelly. who has-2 thigh records-743 lbs.4i"fat at '1 years. from 12.834 lbs of milk-in 365 days, a.

squaretail is a trout that will test
the skill of any angler old or
young. Also the number of black. ducks I figured wlntered in the
Province last winter was 15,000--l not 1500. Everywhere I go observ- ers are talking about the num- ber oi black ducks that remained all season.
Trout are getting restless and. schools are beginning to circle the
pools with the appearance of be-I lng definitely on the bit. Two
anglers stood beside a deep pool
at the foot of a by-pass at a De- l partmental dam on Sunday and
watched maybe a score trout in
the pound and a half bracket do-
Irig s. ldizzy row' act. They were
lively and evidently had a chip on
their shoulders. The boys were) wondering what they would do if, a blob of Garden hsckles was) tossed in their midst. Not hard to
at ' something now quicker than they
will on the 15th. i Anglers temperatures are be-
ginning to stir with an upward
trend and it behaves all enforce-
ment officera to keep both eyes
open and stir their stumps a bit.
