Con siderable discussion preceded the motion during which it was no. ted that not a single mile of heavy paving has been laid in West Prince for over twenty years with exception of a stretch leading to Eilerslle. Regarding a motor vehicle re- gistration office for West Prince. advocated by the Board and the West Prince Zone of the Canadian Legion for some time, president J .F. Bryan stated that it appeared unlikely that an office would be established this year. Following discussion It was decidedjn for- ward a further resolution includ- ing an alternate Dropolal. Dr. O.H.

The beds have been depleted to the point where it is no longer pr- fitable to fish this variety. Quahaugs were in good demand btit Intcnsive fishing has depleted the areas to the point where production is governed. mainly. by the annual growth. There is a quantity of quahaugs in areas clos- ed because of pollution. During the year a successful experimental program was carried out under the direction of the Fish Inspec- tion Laboratory to obtain informa- tion regarding the time it would take these shellfish to cleanse I” '11:: when placed in clean water areas. etc. RECORD LOBSTER VALUE The lobster fishery. which is the mainstay of the fisheries of this Province, was very successful dun ing the year. Lobsters were plentiful in most all areas during both the spring and fall seasons. although in some sections they were not as plentiful as in others. The catch amounted to 97.010 hundredwelght. During the p a st thirty five years there were only two years when the catch exceed- ed that of this year. Also during that time there were only six years when the catch exceeded 90.- 000 hundrcdwelght. which were as follows:- tm. . 77,4511 Cwt. 1931... . . . . . .. 94'.l50 Cwt. 1932.. .. 114.570 Cwt. 1933.. .. .91.547 Cwt. 1950... . ... ... 90.978 Cwt. 1956 . .97.0l6 Cwt. The landed value was 52.687082 which was 5363.770 more than the value for 1955 and was the largest landed value on record. Prices on the average were slightly above that of the previous year. This fishery Is responsible for the great- er part of the i'ishermcn's earn- ings, accounting for about 'seventy two percent of the value of all fish landed. Scallops were taken in largerj quantity than in 1955 and were- takcn mainly from the beds situa- ted in Northumberland Strait. Westvof Pictou Island. The quantity of Irish Moss ban vested was less than in 1955 by about 24.540 nuntiredweisht. The greater-part of the Irish Moss is. gathered :t'ter being washed ashore i during heavy winds and an! there were not many storms dur- ing the year, the quantity takcni was smaller than usual.
