Dud Little Made a Trip

Saturday «afternoon is a holiday for Little, Haugland & Kerr, but like all keen business men, holidays don’t cut any ice when there’s work afoot. At the middle of last week the mill shut down for o few days, and Pete Man-

lips Creek. During Saturday morn- ing matters came about where some information was needed from Pete, so D. G. Little sald, “I'd better go up and see Pete.”

A little later he began to think the trip wasn't necessary, but the other members of the firm did a little urg- ing and Dud started after lunck. From Terrace to Phillips Creek road crossing is T miles, From the cross- ing to Pete's place is nearly two more miles. That road rlmost stands on end in places, The other fellows had knowledge of the road, but Dud had never been over it, and no information was offered him.

‘To get to Phillips Creek one goes hy hand ear, but as Dud is a big husky fellow, both long and broad, and when he gets set on a hand car one would not say that he was exactly streamlin- ed, <A mile out of Terrace Dud ran into a head wind, a real one, Later he said he nearly broke the handle on the car, and yet could barely make the

Cooper advocated a slight inerease in the price base, to enable funds to accumulate faster for provid- iug an adequate working capital, and also for the reduction of loans on which interest was being paid. By a resolution of. the meeting it was de- cided to leave the matter in the hands of the 1938: directorate,

Bad Weeds

Weed control is receiving increased attention from tocal farmers. The problem has been accentuated since

-lthe flood of 1936, At that time seeds

of weeds previously unknown in the Skeena valley came down from up- river points and found soils to their liking along the river flats. Other weeds that had been established be- fore that time became more vigorous with the feed supplied by the river silt that the waters brought down...

Last year farmers did some experi

menting with commercial weed des-

troyers, and at present sodium chilor- ate seems’ to be the most favored re- medy ‘This poison is applied in either the powder or as a spray, and enters the plant through the leaves, and then sprends throughout the whole plant system in the circulation of the sap In due course the roots of the weeds are killed as well as the stems and the leaves. It is hoped that a consistent following of such methods will restore the local farms to a condition where little trouble is experienced by weeds.

are nccounts of large herds of bison, popularly called buffalo, charging over the western plains and pursued by the Indian hunters. At times these aui- mals travelled in’ solid columns of thousands and tens of thousands. The Indians depended upon them for food, the fat provided tallow, the skins cleth ing, tent and canoe covers and the hair made cloth. The slight hump was es- pecially prized for pemmican. Contiu- ued hunting resulted In almost extinc- tion of the species until both the Unit- éd. States and Canadian governments sought to protect them. As a result the herds have so increased that in Canada there are about 1,500 buffalo hides now available annully.

Last month two female buffaloes were shipped from Blk, Island- park, Alberta, to.the Dudley Zoological So- cley in Hngland. ..
