EFFECTS OF` THE MIGRATORY BIRDS [TREATY ACT When -the white mm first came to the North American continent, one of the attractions, not least among the many which aperaled to those early settlers, was txhe. grealt abund- ance of bird life, which not only afforded pleasure to both eye and ear, but was also a denite and un- failing source of food. Since then, the hunting and killing of game birds has been continued by suc- ceedrin-g genevations, though the meat now obtained is no longer one of the pricipal means of subsistence. Men of to-day hunt more particular- ly for the sport of hunting and for the sake oif the recreation afforded by an outing in the unspoiled out- doors. May a. tired business and prfessional man looks eagerly for- ward each year to his annual ex- cursion to the woods, where with his gun he may spend a week or mvo of pure joy, away from all the cares and worries of his daily life L_..1. ... ..:...'.1:.....:.-.... .n+.nnh~..-v .-.9 RADENTIITRST & HAMMOND, Barnisters, Solicitors, etc. Oilce, lat oor Masonic Temple Build- ing.

The early hunters brought back with them large bags of game. Then the bags grew smaller, and gradu-ally it became evident to thinking men that our game birds were in danger or` exteurmi'na`ti0n if the decrease in their nuimbers was to continue. In fact, a I1ll'lIlbel` of species, once plentiful, have actually become ex- tinct. These include the Eskimo Curlew, the Labrador Duck, t-he P-assen-ger Pigeon, and the Great Auk. Others, such as the Whoop- ing Crane and the Trumpeter Swan, are in excedingly grave danger of extin-ction at an ezurly dzvte. While probably everyone will ad- inuit the great need for preserving our game birds as a naltural asset, not everyone, perhaps. is fully aware of the value to the farmer and ind'Lrec.tl_\' to all l1umanit_\', of llhe insect-e-awting birds, because oi` the imemnse qua.ntit_\' of injurious insects devou-retl each year by these birds.

It therefore became evi- dent some years ago that any meas- ure, taken with a View to the pro- tection of our migraitory birds, must be carried out in co-operation with the United States. it it were to be effective. The futility of protecting lltirds in one part of the couimtry. only to have them killed in another section, was also recognized by the Emted States aunhorities, who, in 1013, enacted their Federal Mi- gratory Bird Law, which gave uni- form protection to migraitory birds throughout the various States of the Vninn u ith tsn`.Inh'|n nnon cmncnn: LIILIUHD. There was now uniform protection I=hi`0l.1{.,'h0lIt the United States, and `conservationists born of that coun- try and of Canada immediately took steps urging nhe necessity for an international treaty for the pro- tection of nligrartory birds.

This treaty provides for the absolute protection in both Canada and the United States of game birds duning the spring momhs and of in- seotivorous birds th=roughout the year. It also prowides for an open season of three and a half months. during which the sportsman, wher- ever he 11121.)` live, is free to hunt qaune birds, fully aware of the fact that he is not being diSCI'i'mliIi aJted against ,but has an equal chance at the birds with all other sportsnien in either country.

As most of the provinces have amended their game laws to con- form with the Migratory Birds Con- vention Act. thus making it possible for them to enforce the tenm-is of the treaty within their respective territories, the principal Work of the Federal Depwrtment in this con- nection is the education of the people to a. knowledge of the law and its benefits and the encourage- ment of a sympathetic attitude to- wards biurd protection.

A sudden demand for wheat in Scandinavian markets has caused increased activity in the movement of grain through Vancouver. Four boats left with bulk wheat for ports of Norway and Sweden, marking the first direct grain shipments from the Canadian Pacific coast to Scan- dinavia. The rapid increase in She export ; butter trade of Saskatchewan dur- ` ing the past year or two has been the outstanding feature of the prov- incial dairy industry. Recently the Saskatchewan Co-operative Cream- eries made a shipment of 25,000 lbs. of butter to China. The export of gold bullion, gold coin, and fine gold bars from Can- ada, except as deemed advisable by the Minister of Finance, and as licensed by him, is prohibited until July 1, 1924, by proclamation issued \ in the current issue of the Canada ` Gazette. Breaking all 1923 passenger traf- fic records, the Canadian Pacific S.S. Metagwama, westbound from Glasgow via Belfast, docked re- cently at Quebec, and Montreal the same evening, with a record number of 382 cabin and 1,078 third-class passengers. "There are hundreds of first class ` farm workers in Scotland anxious to come to Canada, and the finest ma- terial Canada could wish for, but their wages are sufficient to barely support them and they are unable to accumulate funds for the passage. This is the opinion of Thomas Scotland, of the Canadian Pacific Railway Colonization and Develop- ment office in Glasgow, who re- cently arrived in Canada with a party of Scotch immigrants bound I for the western provinces. To J. K. L. Ross, director of the Canadian Pacific Railway. goes the honor of catching the world 5 record fish with rod and reel. At St. Ann's Bay, N.S., he landed a tuna weighing 712 pounds; length, 9 feet 2 inches; girth, 6 feet. Commander Ross used a Vom Hofe tuna nod and reel, No. 39 thread line, with mackerel for bait. His catch took three and a quarter hours to land. 'Dhe world's wheat crop this year is estimated at 3,818,000,000 bushels, as compared with 3,104,000,000 bush- els last year, an increase of 214,- 000,000 bushels, according to fig- ures carefully compiled by the In- ternational Institute of A culture at Rome. The estimated s ipments from supply countries of the world for this War is 690,000,000 bushels, of which Canada is expected to supply 290,000,000 bushels, or about , one-third.
