Reserved Rivers in P. E. IL.

Nor long since a good deal ef political capital was attempted to be made out of the fact that four rivers in this Province, viz: Dank, Winter, Morell and Midgell-— had

been set apart by an Order in Council for the natural and artificial propaga tion of tish. The poor man’s rights,

it was said, had been interfered with; and a good deal of sentimental clap-trap was in dulged in by the lovers of the rod and fly. Our object in now referring to this matter is not to find fault with the Order, for we believe it to bein the interest of the pub-

lic at large, as wellas for the benefit of

persons living in the immediate vicinity of these rivers. We werely wish to call attention to the fact that the Order in

Council setting apart the before named rivera was passed by the late Administration Let

on the Sth of October, 1875. persons

therefore, who are of opinion that their rights have been interfered with by the setting apurt of these rivers, bear in mind not the present,

that it was the late, and

Gov ernment who passed the necessary Order in “Council. ibs Sale dale eee ae Fishermen’s Boats—A New Mode} Suggested.

rak Duvan, Esq., {nspector of

island. in his able and exhaustive Report for the year 187%, offers for consideration of the Department certain uggestions that are entitled te On the subject of boats, for instance, his remarks

practical more than a mere passing notice.

are as follows:

‘*Something ought here to be said of boats, the observations having reference to all varieties of fish sought for in- these waters. (ur fishermen’s boats are mosily built by themselves, in the intervals of other labor. Many of these boats are neither cenmodious nor safe, for the rea- gon that the shores are shelving and shoal, the seas are heavy and break a long way off. Were the coast bolder, I would take it on me rospectfully to suggest, for here or elsowhere, that it would pay the Government to introduce from the east coast of Scot- land (perh«ps from Fife) a model of one of the seaworthy fishing boats, which, held in joint stock and manned by the share-

holders, kept the sea, in pursuit of business, |

when larger craft could not live. With such boats, our fishermen could compete with foreigners, who, owning better ap- pliances for keeping the sea, have almost a monopoly of the waters outside of the three wiles’ line’ As it is, 1 take the liberty of suggesting the advisability of the Depart- ment taking some measures to introduce to public notice « model of an in proved fishing boat, at once seaworthy and adapted for beaching on coasts shallow as ours.”

This suggestion, we believe, is a good one. Heavy keel boats cannot be used at all in localites where the water is shoal for goine distance from the shore. The old- fashioned dory is, in many respecis, un-

suitable for shore fishing. We believe that

animproved fishing boat could be built which would far surpass, both in safety and commodiousness, any ‘‘ craft” now in use among our fishermen.

Lobsters.

Unver this head, our Island Fishery In- spector in his last annual report,offers some very pertinent and timely remarks. The following «xtracts are well worthy of further consideration : :

** In this age of competition the tendency is to overd» any business that promises to be lucrative. Such, it would appear, is about to bo the case in the canning of lob- sters. Whatever measures of repression may be called for in lobster packing, it is not one of those industries that require te be fostered into growth.

Several umportant questious, present and

rospective, arise out of this great indusiry. or example, the fishery staff is so small and opportunity so easy to evade the law, that no suflicient supervision can be had over the destruction of spawaing and under- sized lobsters, Let me say, the fishery is carried on by means of the box trap and hoop trap Comparatively few hoop traps are as yet in use, but if my information is correct, much the greater number of the undersizec| lobsters are meshed in the hoops. The remedy suggests itself, viz ,

ae

The objection to such reguiations vould be invested inthem in their present shape, and niareover, the juvenile crustaceans might crawl tn as well as out, and by pilfering the bait prevent

| the purchased sites are closely adjacent to other factories. Is will thus be seen that formidable difficulties lie in the way of as singing and detining fishing stations to the respective factories ; and yet 1t 1s a matter that must sooner or later be met. Pro bably the earlier it is done the easier it will be. The subject is already engaging the at- tention of packers.
