The speaker then reviewed the past history of the business and by comparisons showed the lack of progress that bus been made during the past twenty years. lie then took up the question of markets usd point- ed out that owing to restricted markets nnd» slow sales lobsters were not going lnio consumption as rapidly as in former years.

Tho trade demanded u first-class article and would take notlllng else; anything below: strictly choice quality was unsal- acble_ and‘ it ‘was useless for puck- ers to put up anything else this

year. IMr. ‘S. T. Gallant. Fisheries Inspector then addressed the

meshing on improved methods oi packing. He reviewed a circular he intends placing in the hands of the packers before the ‘season op- ens and advised them to givc m- structlons to their fishermen not to allow lobsters to come in con- iact with bilge water in their beater polntiing‘ out that in pro- cessing the meat of one lobster left in bilge water might spoil a dozen cnns ‘of fish. The speaker then cautioned the packers to se- lect s. good, reliable man to do the boiling, as the first trouble begins in lobsters not Fheing sufficiently Dolled and not iisvlnlg- sufficient salt to bring the water to a proper temperature. The placing of tho meat in the can was then fully ex- plained. 1t was pointed out that nothing but whole tails should be used ‘in the bottom of the can_ the small end of the tall overlap- ping the raw end; that the small meat should be placed in the cen- frc oi’ the can und pressed down
