Many been ‘ g hipsters, or fishing out of season so long it‘s become a way of life. I talked for example, to Joe Maclnnis 85 of Anglo 'llignish who fished for more than a half century before he retired. And, I gathered, he poached for many of these years.

The point I'm stressing here. though. is that those people don‘t believe they are damaging their industry by fishing out of season. and they’ve been doing it so long many of them know no other way of life.

Many Lobster Tales Heard THEY ARE ordinary human beings like you and me, friendly, neighbourly, kind and generous as I've round in my Visits with them. They’re not the outlaws type as some pie seem to believe. I heard many tales of lobster fishing, some of them dating back for almost a cen .

Tale Of Tragedy 123 Years Ago

However the young man decided to push on for New Glasgow. in order to reach his parcnta' home. but the ever acres ctr-ff made the travelling an-

for slightly over four years.

At the end of the conflict a slight inkling was being given of the possibilities of the ma- chine age in a military war. Tanks. aeroplanes, poison gas and machine guns were making their appearance.

, The intervening 50 years have seen the Western World take up mechanization in a big way. Agriculture has replaced the horse with the tractor. the wa- gon with the automobile. kero- ’ sene with electricity, the binder

with the combine and a host of ,

farm machines to replace the laborer. The farm home has acquired conveniences that weren't avail- able even to the very well , do in 1914, While the world is still not a' h a ppily adjusted place, there has nevertheless n great improvements and for most people life Is certain- ly richer and fuller.

On a nwre bucolic note we would inter that Aug. 4, 1964 was the biggest hay making day

of the entire season. True it comes on the late side but cool {weaker has kept the hay from

maturing and some quite good quality feed is still being made.

For those who wish to have some hay of quite special qual- ity we suggest they consider these pastures which have grown up. there is to be found fodder of quite superior quality. And ther point that needs to be not- ed is that at this time of the year hay makes very quickly and shouldn’t be exposed any longer than necessary.

FREIGHT ASSISTANCE

The Federation of Agriculture in the Maritime provinces has advised the Hon. Maurice Sauve that proposed changes in the Freight Assistance Policy on Western grain will create hard- ships with respect to the Marl- tim

es.

An analysis of the proposals show that P.E.I. and N.B. wrll receive $1.50 per ton less and NS. $3.00 per ton less assistance than previously. In addition it would appear that in equality in areas will develop between areas in each province.

Then about the third week in July the price lowers and this year did so in spite of the fact that there seemed to be rather

, fewer cattle available than pre viously.

Without being cynical or skep- tical we must confess to some curiousity as to why at this time of the year cattle prices always seem to react to some rather vague and indefinite forces.

DAIRY QUEEN

The British Dairy Queen, Miss Christine Ann Hewett together with her companion, Miss Eh leen Dumvorth will arrive in the province on Sunday, Sept. it and leave on Sept. 17.

While no program has yet been worked out, it is likely that the visitors will be involved in some of the functions related to the Dominion Champion Pio wing Match. Other activities in connection with the visit will soon be going through the plan- ning stages.

Miss Dunworth is an official with the National Dairymens Association of England and Wales. an organization of tn. dairy processers and it is hoped to have her meet persans III that branch of the Island indus- try.

INTEREST CHARGES

The Canadian Federation of Agriculture has been concerned. with the cost of credit and ﬂ- nance charges generally ant has supported the enactment d limitation of interest rates char- ged by finance companies.

The Federation recogmzeo' that buying on credit has be- come a well established prac- tice in the Canadian economy, and that there are legitiman interest charges and other costs associated with providing the fi- nancing of purchases on credit

Notwithstanding. it maintain-

at consumers have a right

to know in advance of entering into a credit transaction the real level of finance charges in- volved, expressed in both dollar amounts and simple annual in- terest rates, and that consum- ers are also entitled to reason- able protection from excessive charges and exploitation at the hands of those providing credit services.

The Federation feels that the new policy it carried out, will mean the building of small in- efficient plants at many points thus adding to the capital cost

The minister has been urged to confer with the Canadian Fo- deration of Agriculture in order to arrive at a satisfactory sol- ution to the problem. However, it is pointed out that the new policy will make it even more difficult for Maritime livestock and poultry industries. CATTLE PRICES
