For some time it has been sus- pected that poaching operations on a large scale were being con- ducted in this area but it has been difficult to cc-mbat until this scheme was organized. when the men in fthe plane spotted a crate they would drop a note to the boat and the men in the boat would search the area till they found it. The lobsters were kept in large traps or crates. sane of bhem floating and others on thp bottom. ' Fifteen Crates In One Area On discovery, the lobsters were released, In one instance fifteen crates were located in one area, each of which contained about 200 pounds of lobsters otf all sizes packed tightly together. The area in whldh most of the poaching is believed to be done is around the mouth of Albertcn harbour to the Black Banks, The regular catch this spring vwas lrnall and at that time some of the responsible fishermen and packers of the area blamed the prevalence of poaching for this condition. It is understood that no pros- ecutions will follow as the results of these seizures because while the identity of most of the poach- ers is suspected there is no evi- dmce that might warrant a con- viction. The value of spotting from the air in combatting poaching is considered to be very great and it has been suggested that if s pontoon equipped plane were pro- vided it would be much better be- cause they could land near the scene of suspected illegal fishing operations and obtain evidence for court pIOCMdiIlgS. It has been reported that on one day in daylight eleven boats were seen hauling traps out of season but the identity of the persons concerned could not be detected from the air. After the lobsters are fished out of season i-hey are either sold on the main- land or are packed illegally and sold by the can, ~— S. Greetings Sent Princess Margaret OTTAWA, Aug. 23 — (C?) _.

The milk for the camp was supplied by Mr. Harrison Mc- Farlane who lived at a pictures- que farm nearby. Miss L. McQuald proudly dis- played the Wash Tent in which the Guides had made a novel and useful wash stand that contained a row of wash bowls. Lucille in- structed the girls in this work. proving her grand capability as a Guide Leader. Tent patching had been done in several places and the stitches were a. credit to the Guides, par- ticularly Marie Arsenault and Joyce Gallant. The Cook, Mrs. Watson was appreciated by every- one, especially when there were hot rolls for supper. Her two small sons, "Worm” and The Singer were qualifying for aGuide Company, I feel sure. They cer- tainly knew the Guide songs. A hiking party of 10 Guides had set out under the leadership of Miss Elaine Harrison to qual- ify for the Pioneers Badge. Hope you all passed it. girls. The Camp was depleted in numbers by this mass exit but by the singing one would have thought it trebled. I can still hear "Down by the Sea“ and that "Sit Dowrl". They were just experts at, improvisation and had no mercy for Lucille or the rest ofthe staff. A ladder had been constructed and almost completed, for des- cendlrig to the shore. It was n great credit to the instructors; the lashlngs were splendid. The Guides were working for many badges. including swimmers, Nat- ure, Campers and Astronomers. We should have some smart Guides from all the Campers this year. It will be a sad day on the 25th at Femwood Camp, but next year will come, girls. so keep smiling. R.G.A.F.

This year the 168 acres have been Buphlemented by two addition- Bl Purchases of 62 and 165 acres together with a woodlot to be used for experimental purposes. =- The group was turned over to Mr. D. C. Schurman, Assistant in Held Husbandry. who outlined some of the experiments which have been conducted at the Farm mental plots in some detail and he demonstrated the fact with “on the spot" samples. In 020p rotat- ion, mangle; seem to be harder on the land than potatoes. In another field. Mr. Schurman pointed out demonstration plots for seven year rotation including turnips, wheat, clover, timothy, two years fertilized pasture and oats. This seven year rotation is best of all for general farming. the speaker suggested. but it is not best for raising potatoes when a large acreage is desired. “Most of us are not able to feed the land enough in order to have c. four or five year rotation," Mr. Schurman continu- Among the fields not visited close-up by the tour were: one for foundation potatoes, another email field of timothy for seed. an after- crop of clover. and Charlottetown number 80 barley. The tour con- ductor while pointing to a storm- battered field of Abegweit oats re- marked that when a barley plant- ing succeeds a potato crop the yield is better than when it follows a crop of mangles. Timothy was the next plant to come under inspect- ion. Mr. Schurman desczibed some of the experiments which have been done with timothy and he ‘pointed out that the purpose of this work is to increase crop yield. Mr. R. C. Parent again took over the conducting of the party and ihad the visitors to the site of the erosion experiments. To prove the superority of aczcss hill rather than up and down rows of plant- ing potatoes, in 1937 a diversion ditch l0 inches deep was dug at the foot of the experimental hill. 1n that short time. Mr. Parent; stated. the ditch has filled com- pletely up with soil from down- hill ercsion. In concluding his re- marks on these expetiments, the speaker advised the y0ur18 $111119" to plant rows across a slope or to choose flat land for potato crops. The tour was then burned over to Mr. R. B. MacLai-m. Senior Agri- cultural Assistant. who conducted the party to a series of small grain plots whore a large number of va:ieties have been planted. Mr. MacLaren explained that to en- sure accuracy in the experimental method three other identical plant- ings have been made on other parts of that field. This minimzes the danger of the effect of soil differences in a small area.
