Heavy inroads were sometimes made on certain speâ€" cies, and a historian writing in 1825 There is a growing realization by sportsmen in all parts of the world of the great resource Canada has in het game. This is denoted by the fact that Canada is rapidly becoming one of the leading ‘big game countries of the world, due to good fortune in having a large original stock of these aniâ€" mals and to efficient â€"conservationâ€" of them by wise laws, close seasons! and ‘sanctuaries. . The climatic and soil conditions which have given Canada her wheat fields and Ler timber lands have also provided grazing grounds and winter shelters for a great variety of big game. Canada‘s forests and open spaces were, ox the arrival of the first w%ite men, abundantly stockâ€" ed with game, and although both aniâ€" mals and birds retired before the adâ€" vance of settlement there was fortunâ€" ately in every section of the country some natural sanctuary in which they could retreat to live and multiply in safety. There was a time, in early Wednesday, September 21, 1927 j‘redicted the early disappearance of he moose from ‘a certain district; Toâ€" The Dominion‘s Plentiful Supply Ensures Good Huntifigâ€"Each Province Offers Characteristic Attractions.

The. ena;c;'tmeht and ':a'dlv'rvl,.inistrati'on of laws respecting big game come within th,ej purview <of the provinces The big game animals which may bt taken in Canada are moose, caribou deer, bighorn sheep, Rocky Mountain goat, bear, grizzly bear, and lynx. Moose deer, and ‘bear are the chief animals hunted in the Maritimes, in Quebec and Ontario, and in the Prairie Provinces and in most of them caribou may also ‘be hunted in seas'oxfi/ln the Prairie Provinces and British Columâ€" ‘bia buffalo and antelope are protected at all seasons and this is the case in regard to elk or wapiti, except in cerâ€" tain localities. There is an open seaâ€" son for ‘bighorn sheep and mountain goat in Alberta and British Columbia. In addition to the big game the game birds which ~may ‘be shot are duck, brant, goose, wWbodcock, Wilson‘s snipe, ra.i‘l‘& ,p't;armigafl‘,, prairie chicken, ruffed . grouse_and . Hungarian partâ€" ridge. ; . Seesepanmet r ol Thus, all over Canada, there is a growing realization of the value of the resource we have in big game and a determination to make the best use of it for toâ€"day and for toâ€"morrow. The idea that prevails in some countries, that game is a luxury in which the average citizen is not interested, has no feothold in Canada because the opâ€" portunities for sport are open to everylbody. In this age too, when life in town and country is lived at high it-e»nsion, recreation is necessary for _all, and the best forms of recreation â€"are those which keep people in the open Aair and which provide a change from the regular occupation of life. This is true in a high degree of huntâ€" ing whether with gun or camera. People are becoming seized of the fact that game is a great natural resource and one that must not be permitted to. *ecrease, and further, that in Canada hunting is not carried on at the exâ€" pense of any other interest. In crowded Europe in old times arable fields were turned into forests to make hunting grounds for the wealthy, but .Canada is fortunate in having great stretches of land suited only to the growing of timber, and to forests the regulated hunting of game is not an injury; on the other hand this conâ€" tact of town dwellers with the great outdoors is really a benefit since it makes them conscious of the value of the woodlands. | day,; a hundred years later, the moose are much more plertful in thatfi section than they were then, and people toâ€"day value big game too highly to run any risksâ€" of its extermination by poachâ€" ing and potâ€"hunting. The Canadian commercial apple crop is now estimated at 92 per cent., with 2,740,800 barrels, compared with 2,984,200 jbarrels last year and 82 per cent. of a fiveâ€"year average of 3,327,600 ‘barrels, says a report from the Dominion Fruit Branch. This makes the estimate approximately 243,000 ‘barrels less than 1926, and 258,000 barrels less than the forecast ‘of a month ago, the reduction being due to extensive aphid injury, hail damage, and severe storms in the Eastern Provinces, and prolonged Forecast for Fruit Continues to Drop Dominion Apple Crop Now Estiâ€" mated at Less Than a Year Ago. ‘"‘There is one signal that is posiâ€" tive," an Associaton offical said, "and that is the hand. If the hand is stuck out to the side of the car, the driver following knows that something is going to happen, perhaps a stop, or slow down or a turn either way. The outstretched hand gives him warning, and it is then up to him to take care of himself. Signals should ‘be simple and easily understood.‘© Nothing is simpler than the outstretched. hand. However, there are other views, and I ‘believe ‘one of the most interesting discussions we ishall have will be on this question of signals." ' Linked with the question of lights in the Association‘s program is the matter of signals for stop and turn. In the United States are three digâ€" tinct sets of signals, but their applicaâ€" tion is said to be confusing, Objecâ€" tion is given to automatic signals in that they gre not always sure or posiâ€" tive. "I hear a good many motorists say that legislation regarding the glaring light menace will do no good.© They assert that there is too much legislaâ€" tion already, and that it would be imâ€" possible to secure uniformity for all our Provinces. â€"I do not fully share that view.. We have secured much uniformity ‘of legislation« and it is just possi‘ble that by working together with Highways Department, and motor c¢r manufacturers, and motorists we may evolve something that ‘will make the matter of glaring lights of no 'rmor? consequence. We expect to heart some new thought on this subject at Niagara Falls." R f "A good many exiperts have practicâ€" ally thrown up their hands over any immediate settlement of the question of glaring headlights," said George McNamee, Secretary of the Canadian Good Roads Association. "So many problems enter into the matter that they are frankly puzzled. â€"A driver may have a.lens that does not glare with a certain sized bulb and does glare most viciously‘ with another size. Much also depends upon the tilt of the lens. In many cases a slight blow will give the lJamps a tilt so as to make them absolutely dangerous to drivers com@ng from the opposite direction. We are doing our utmost. to secure the coâ€"operation of ‘every. motor car driver. If the driver does| not know how to fix his own lights he should have periodical inspections made by garage men who understand the problem . In Ontario and some other Provinces the Highways Departâ€" ment supply free directions for testing lights. These have ‘been of immense service, but they have not done away with the danger entirely." ' Montreal, Sept. 21.â€"The menace of glaring headlights is to be discussed at the annual convention of the Canâ€" adian Good Roads Association, at Niâ€" agara Falls, on September 27, 28 and 29. It is anticipated that many ideas will be brought forward on this subâ€" ject which has ‘been a worry to govâ€" ernment. officials. Discuss Menace of , Glaring Headlights and as changes may be made upon comparatively short notice, hunters from & distance intending to hunt in a particular locality will naturally comâ€" municate with the game department of each province in which they are inâ€" terested, and with the railways and other transporation companies. Adâ€" ditional information will be gladly furnished upon application to the Department of the Interior, Ottawa. _ THE INDEPEN s Te e U e nminmnconmtmnineaunnunti 0:2-31IlIIIIllllllllllllllllllll!: | % Grimsby t ITamilton Ruth¢ ford Trans ort Local and cate a yiel 730 bushe ‘bushels las estimated 320 ‘bushels 400 bushel Quality ith: The coml of British TRAN PORT SER ICE 2 Trucks at| ir Service Trut WHHRCAIUNINCGIIIIT Distance ia. pounds .....:..........‘..$125 Grey Gelding, 1400 lbs.. .....$40 Several others, no reasonable offer refused. â€" pounds ..................$135 Bay Gelding, 8 years old, 1300 pounds ...................$85 Black Driving Gelding, 1100 Handsome team mares,. 2600 lbs.
