In his report, Receiver Perkins says: That portion of the trackage that is un- old is being operated at present at a continued- loss. Every economy is -be- ing practiced and the losses are less than for the same peMod a year ago.

Rotary club, whose guest he was af the noonday luncheon on Wednesday at the Wauregan house, told of the joys and disappoint- ments of salmon fishing in the Restigou- che river in New Brunswick, where his father has a salmon' preserve. Mr. Mitchell said that while there is an abundance of| the fish it is not always possible-to land one and he, himself, on his first trip to the fishing grounds fisked for ‘ten days before landing one of the beauties. Mr. Mitchell told of the habits of the fish saving that some inhabited waters| near the mouth of rivers, others being und further up and still others a con- derable distance inland. An experienced salmon fisherman can tell at a glance from what part of the rivers a salmon is caught by simply noting the markings én the body. ' At spawning time the fish come up the rivers to lay their eggs and after the hatching the fingerlings. - or young fish, ‘stay aroundYthe _spawning grounds for a time and then depart for the sea. In their trip down the river to the sea they take on weight rapidly and in a short time return weighing from 5 to 8 pounds each. ~ A salmon always retums to the ground where it Wwas spawned. A peculiar thing is that a sal- mon coming un the river to spawn does not eat anything until after the eggs are laid but they will take a fly. A 14 ounce rod of split bamboo or other rod is used with a good line and leader and fly, the size of the fly depending on the sea- son, and thé casting is either from a canoe or from the shore, Most of my fishing, said Mr. M Qell, has been from a canoe. 1 go out with two besides myself in a canoe, an anchor n and a bowman. ‘The anchor man in the stern and steers the canoe and manages it when a fish is being landed. In casting for the salmon a cast of 12 feet is made first on one side and then on the other, lengthening the cast each ime until the fishing ground has been red. Some times you see a number Imon go by and it is impossible them to strike and then again they ill snap vour bait before it settles on water. A salmon will strike at the bait several times and then as it | settles on the water will rise under and y t. But after he is hookel attle to land him for you never turns he | is cov know only way wn him. It is a great sport and has all over the trout and lake fishing in e parts of the country.
