Albex-ta,'to Wood Islands an Mr. Moore's Bird Sanctuary. on SturK- M. creek, between Commercial ("rose and Milltowu Cross on the mad from Montague and Murray River, where they saw hundred! of ducks that came away uP 01' the land at Mr. Moorels call. Most of them were Mallards. With 3 smaller number of Black Ducks. There were flocks of Canada 89959 lhat also came over to the side of the pond where we were. and a few came ashore. Monday we took our friends to Cuvcndisli there they were great- Ir interested in Green Gables and the National Park golf course. From there we drove to Stanhope Beach and called at Dalvay I-Iotel. They were shown around by the hostess, and given the history of the beautiful house and its former occupants. SHIP SHAPE 4 Tuesday they took their trailer first to Stanhope Beach and then to Cavendish. where they decid- ed to locate. After a swim at Cav- endish. the driver joined us where we were swimming at the Rust- lco beach. He remarked how much uarmer the water was on PE. is- land then along the Atlantic Coast. and later went with us to arrange a dccp-sea fishing trip from Rust- iro. We located Petcr Terllzzick, ii fisherman. who was expecting to take out a party of five Wed- nesday morning at 8 a.m. He said we could join them if they made their final arrangement: before dark; otherwise he would be leav- ing at 4.30 in the morning, and he would take us at that time if we were there. Later that evening we received a phone message to secure a pump for Peter's Boat from Allison Mac- l.cod, and that we would leave to fish mackerel at 7 am. We ar- rived at ltiistico Harbour at'6.30 am. Wednesday. so that the pump could be installed before leaving When Peter's wrenches failed to start the rusted nuts. we were able to supply automobile WI ches that started them. Two of the folks from Edmonton arrived on time and we were soon on our way to the fishing grounds. THE FISHING TRIP There was a light breeze from tho south-wt-st. and we ran to the nortliwcst alonlz the coast past Doyle's Cove. in where most of the boats were fishing two or three miles off Cape Turner. As we came about to anchor. a few dashes of spray came aboard. and we were complimented on having worn a rain coat to catch the spray. The meat grinder attached to the cngine soon ground up enough chum. (throw-baltl of salted mac- kcrel to start quite a "slick" to lea- ward. .0ur lines were soon out with the mackerel jigs halted with small squares of white skin from fresh .mac- kerel. These had only drifted along toward the stem when we had a hile and landed the fist mackerel. II was soon followed by one caught by the young lady of the party. her first deep-sea fish. It was so live- ly that she asked help to get it off the limit. PETER WAS HIGH LINE From that time on. Peter. hav- Ing supplied two lines to each per- son. soon began to catch and pass the rest of us in the count. He slatted the fish info a pile in the how of the boat. behind various im- pl ' is, including an oil-akin coat. The mackerel came in spurts. with longer or shorter apcels when no one caught any fish. At times. Peter in the how was the only one catching fish. and the visitors thought the location was respon- sible for his success. so he chang- ed places with them but still was able to haul in more fish than anyone else. Later in the morning the wind veered more to the west and de- creased in force. and toward noon the current chan ed so that we fished from the er side of the boat. We no a "sandwich break" about i a.m.. and had some real sport ryiog to haul in mackerel and eat at the same time. The count of our own fish llnlliy reached M. and most of them were large beautiful macker- el. The others throw theirs allo- lttilc into a tarp Ion. back in Charlottetown at one D.m.. and later had the real tregt of a fresh boiled codfiah head. Logging Has Gone Mechanical By FRASER MacDOUGALL Canadian Press Staff Writer HERON BAY, Ont. (CP)-Flall- ing half-inch chains may displace the woodsmans axe in the Ontario bushland. The lethal chains are stripping the branches-and some of the bark-.from pulpwood trees in an experimental operation on Ontario Paper Company timber linilts north of this Lake Superior ham- let 135 miles east o Port Arthur. Clark Iiorncastle. Ontario Pa- per's 35-yearold development on- glneer. emphasizes that his de- Ilmbing machine is still in the ex- perimental stage. lie started on it last summer and worked with it again this year. Next year he hopes to have it still closer to practical use. MECHANICAL JOB Aim of the experiment is to add the last mechanical touch to mod- ern full-tree logging In which everything is done by machine ex- cept lapping off the branches- that Is still the task of the man with the axe. It takes an axeman four to five minutes to de-limb an average On- tario pulpwood tree. Iiorncastlc's machine strips them in 7.5 sec- onds. In that 25 secnds, the de- lImber's logging chains swing at the tree 4.000 times. Not all swings are hits. In effect. the tree runs I gaunt- let of chains. A mechanical car- rier. moving at 100 feet a minute. carries the tree between two re- volving drums. each equipped with three rows of four chains abut to inches long. The drums. set five feet apart. turn at 400 revolutions a minute. Hdrncastle. a native of Freder- icton and a forestry graduate of the University of New Brunswick. set out to find a machine to round out the full-tree logging system on which Ontario Paper began ex- perimental work two years ago. CONVENTIONAL METHOD Under conventional pulpwood logging methods in Ontario. a tree is fclled by a portable power saw. A man hacks off the limbs with an axe. Then the power saw cuts it into four-foot lengths. called bolts. and it is piled until the time comes to float it down a river or ship it by truck or rail. In recent years. some pulp coin- panies adopted a techni e known as tree-length logging. T e tree is felled and dc-llmbcd as under the old procedure and then the entire trunk is hauled to a slasher. or saw outfit. for cutting into bolts. Trucks are loaded mechanically on the spot. Full-tree logging varies tree-length in that the free hauled to the slasher position be- fore the branchcs are removed. Iiorncaslle estimates that if he from gets his de-llmbing machine worlr-j ::' n the woods will be raised to threelVl5”ED CAMPS lng satisfactorily. production or four cords per man day. The present average in the Lake Su- perior pulpwood stands in 1.2 cords per man day.
