Put all other things aside and be at the harness race-s tonight at the Charlottetown track. The "program will be one of the best of the season. in fact onc'of the best of several seasons.

I walked down to the road bridge which is only a few yards from the factory. The stream bed on the lower side looked reason- ably clean. Signs indicated that the objectionable matter had been assisted in its journey down stream. Above the bridge it clung to the stones in an evil smelling mass. I took a stick and remov- ed a blob of the substance. lt draped over it like an drowned rat in the last stages of decom- position and smelled likewise. I carried it back to the starch operator. the slick held at. armia length. His eyes opened wide: "On which side dirl you get that?" he queried in astonish- ment. 0 The Dcparimcni cont-orned doe-a not wish to see the factory clos- ed down and farmers dc-prlved of an outlet for cull potatoes. his request is a rcasoable one: fine some other means of disposing of the objectionable residue other than allowing it to enter a five mile stretch of trout water and pollute it and the lake into which it flows beyond the pow- er of description. After the starch has been re- moved from potatoes the dry pulp rcsitluc. apart from the water content. is only a small percentage of the whole. it should not he a difficult or ex- pensive operation to find some means of disposing of this objec- tlonal content. it was suggested that it be hauled to the North Shore and dumped of St. Lawrence. In this hold water with no mud flat: to hold the starchy pulp it v.ould purchased by Harry Hirsch of Sydney for s4.500 from Read Bros.. Maine. and others were bought for figures up 1o s3.000.

Supporting races No. 1 and No. 5 and No. 4 and No. 8 have large fields of very evenly matched trottens and pacers. It will be a night's racing long to be ramcmibercd. The many admirers of the pacer A. G. Scott 2.00 U5 will re- zret to learn that his racing career is probably over for this season. A few days ago he received an injury in his stifle which prevents him from being trained or raced. Yesterday it was attended to by I veterinary who ordered complete rest. A. G.
