The Atlantic and Greenâ€" land right whales have been slaughterâ€" ed almost to the point of exterminaâ€" tion, the spermâ€"whale industry has practically disappeared, and little reâ€" mains now but whaling in the Antarceâ€" ’tic. That region is virtually new to: whalemen as their invasion dates from ' 1905, but so destructive is modem, whaling that the total catch in thatl area has exceeded ten thousand whales in a single year. Efforts should' be made to restrict the slaughter, since | the whale is a mammal that is tool large for a game preserve or zoo. | Her presence, sweet with perfume, That fills my soul with thrills.

"They won‘t leave St. Kilda‘s while they can live there on charity," says one who knows them wel}. who would like to remove tbe't'xi”f;'vn«x.n' the rocky islet, but the inhabitants deâ€" cline to budge. Only the children speak English on St. Kilda‘s an donly the women work. They toil in the field an4 help cut turf for fuel. The St. Kildans are a great problem to the mainland avthorities, "They seldom fight, but the factions stand on the hills and ¢try to shout one another down in GaeMe," said the nurse, who possesses the only gramoâ€" phone, which mystifies old Margaret MacDonald by playing Gaslic airs. The only missionary and a purse are kept busy, their time .being taken up with settling disputes and attending the sick. Fouds on St. Kilda‘s are as numerous and bitter as in the mountains of Kenâ€" tucky, for the inhabitents have little to do in winter but quarrel over their sheep. The doctor was the most popular of all the visitors, as all the people comâ€" plained of illness, explaining that the Climate, intermarriage and a eameness of diet conspired to undermine the health of the population. ‘ It was found, however, that tips readily overcame the scruples of the townspeople. As the passengers came ashore, Margaret MacDonald, 85, the oldest woman in St. Kilda‘s, crooned Gaelic songs and wept while bearded men leaped and shouted joyfully, and mongrel dogs, which outnumbered the human beings in the sparse communiâ€" ty, ran to their hiding places. ‘ Wondarful Doll‘s House. As the steamship Hebrides, bearing tidings of Lioyd George‘s fall, neared the island, the inhabitants greeted her with cries of "Gimme tobacco!" and "Gimme tea!" but as it was a Sunrday they resolutely refuead to allow the passengers to land unless they proâ€" mised to attend church; and, though they had not heard from their relatives or friends for so long, they wou‘!d not open the mailbags until the next day. ’ The island of St. Kilda, half way be tween the Outer Hebrides and Rockeall, got its first mail and news of the world for many months receutly.

Lookout towers in the past have proved very eficient in operation, whilst the fine results acbieved by meshing the forests with telephone lines jusiify their extension. According to plane two now towers are to be located on the headways of the Tobique River and the narrows of the Naswaak River, These towers are to be of steel, it having been proven, after the use of both steel and wood, that the former is the more economt cal. ‘The cost of the erection of these lowers will be borne equally by the government and the private owners who will be benefited by their locaâ€" tion. A further procautionary measure in the woods adopted this year will be the establishment of a forest permit System. for which munsistl 0 0 * C New Brunswick is etill extending its system of preceutions and protection against forest fires which have in the past effected such serious damage to Its valuable woods, and this year a total of $75,000 wiil be required to carry out the plans of extension proâ€" jected by the Department of Lands and Mines. _ New Brunswick has a very fine, efficient and elaborate fire preâ€" cautionary system in its woods, but as the province‘s principal asset, such arâ€" rangements can never be too thorough, and euch moneys spent in the upkeep of staffs and equipment are considered in the light of very profitable investâ€" ments, k 1 _ 209C h AOrest fire preâ€" @ry measurgs is evidenced in own Lands report for the past Fire losses in 1922 were 95 per & thiem 44 . Weeds Extaust Soil Every year in Canaca sees more drastic forest regulations enforced and greater precautionary measures estab» lished as, with the passing of the years, the necessity of such action beâ€" comes clearer and more insistent and the urgency of adequately preserving this «plendid heritage against the criminal wastage which results every year from pure carelessness is borne upon the various governiments and the ’xeneral Canadian public. The fire wastage which takes place each year, together with the annual commercial exploitation which is continually inâ€" cressing would, without most elaborâ€" ate precautions, rapidly deplete the timber supplies of Canada once called inexhaustible, but now seen to have the same poscibility of disappearance as bappened in other countries under careless methods.
